[FFmpeg-devel] discarding non frame data (was skipmultiple id3v2 headers)

It causes av_read_frame to return packets that only have audio for as many
files as I've tested so far...without having to decode the audio to find
out.

I tried that but you didn't like what I sent.  For people who don't care
about the metadata, something like this probably a bit faster though I
haven't made any measurements.  The reason the id3v2 code has any idea about
this flag at all is to handle the case where an id3v2 tag contains data that
could be misinterpreted as audio data.

> and with parser i meant AVParser

That's easy to change but I'd like to make sure I'm on the right track
before sending another patch.

Thanks.
