[FFmpeg-devel] postprocess.c: filter name needs to be double 0 terminated

[Piotr Kaczuba]

Since the switch from strncpy() to av_strlcpy() in 
pp_get_mode_by_name_and_quality() in libpostproc/postprocess.c (commit 
1a5e4fd8c5b99478b4e08a69261930bb12aa948b), the replacement of short 
filter names doesn't work any more. The way the replacement algorithm 
works, it requires that the whole filter name string be double 0 
terminated. Strncpy() took care of that quasi automatically by filling 
the remainder of the buffer with zeroes, but av_strlcpy() does not. In 
the case of mplayer, the error message is:

$ mplayer -vf pp a.avi
...
Opening video filter: [pp]
1 errors in postprocess string "de"
...

Attached patch fixes it.

Piotr
