[NUT-devel] possible error in the spec for the index

Hi
when trying to read the index from a libnut generated file i stumbled
across a odd problem in how the index is stored, the problem is that
from nut.txt:
has_keyframe
indicates whether this stream has a keyframe between this syncpoint and
the last syncpoint.
what is "this syncpoint", libnut seems to use syncpoint[0] for has_keyframe[0]
as "this" but with that definition
has_keyframe[0]=0 (which is harmless)
more problematic is
for(; j<n && j<syncpoints; j++){
a keyframe after the last syncpoint would be has_keyframe[syncpoints]
and so the pts/eor loop wouldnt be run on it -> we would know there
is a keyframe but we dont not know its pts
obvious solutions (assuiming i didnt miss something)
1. ignore it, its just one keyframe per stream which isnt in the index
2. redefine has_keyframe so [0] is for sp[0] ... sp[1]
3. change j<syncpoints to j<syncpoints+1
comments?

In the past you could go to a library and read, borrow or copy any book
Today you'd get arrested for mere telling someone where the library is
