sorry, I didn't explain myself properly... av_frame_unref(frame)
doesn't free the data pointed to by extended_data[n]

I'm not saying the memory isn't freed, just not by av_frame_unref ...
And I was curious on who/what free it.

But from you explained earlier, it all make sense now

thank you for pointing out the problem.

I've been chasing that particular problem for days !
I was convinced it was in our VDPAU code!
