Even when commenting out the else block and forcing the resampling, I 
get the problem. But yes, that might be a future problem. Thanks for 
flagging it.

I have looked at docs/examples/resampling_audio.c (but does not use 
AVFrame), the code in libswresample, and have read the docs (at least, 
whatever I could find).

Maybe I should use swr_convert instead of swr_convert_frame and directly 
append the out samples to my vector?
