I certenly cannot run valgrind with a realtime video decoding software
on my box. For that it is to slow and as softdevice tries up to sync
the video to real time, it is not not guaranteed the the same code gets
executed and/or the frames are decoded (they are skipped).

But I tried it. I used a statically linked ffmpeg libs. It's a script
in which I inserted the following line:
--- about that time crashing stream started playback ---

This time there was no segfault but there are some messages
when there is the 4:3 16:9 switch. the plain 4:3 part was without.
Hopefully we can get some hints for the segault.
Thanks for your patience.
