ok, let me try to explain the patch.

when using
ffmpeg ... -pix_fmt yuv4xxple ... 
the source file is decoded and put into YUV-planes. But avctx->bits_per_raw_sample is not necessarily set to the needed/correct value.

In my testcase it is simply not set and that's why: avctx->bits_per_raw_sample==0 !

Because ffv1 needs it to be set to the count of msb used the patch sets it to the correct value of 16 as for all YUV4xxP16 colorspaces when not set.

This is done with just inserting this line before the test of it's value:

+        avctx->bits_per_raw_sample = avctx->bits_per_raw_sample ? avctx->bits_per_raw_sample : 16;
        if(avctx->bits_per_raw_sample <=8){
            av_log(avctx, AV_LOG_ERROR, "bits_per_raw_sample invalid\n");
            return -1;
        }

Unfortunately the value is checked before this part at the initialization of s->quant_table[.][.] .
That's why I moved this colorspace check just before the quant_table init.

Additionally I check against it being greater than 16 just to be sure.

What do you think about it?

Best regards.
Lars
