Is there an all-zero case? As far as I can tell, there's no NUT packet that's valid as all zeros, except possibly the very first syncpoint/header pair in the file.
maybe, but having all zero packets with always matching checksum is risky, we will have to check that no change we do might lead to legal all zero packets, and its also more tricky on the demuxer side (search for a packet with matchig checksum vs. search for a packet we can parse with no errors and which has a matching checksum)
Fine, IMO it's ok to include forward pointer, but what about syncpoints? Do we really want to add another byte to them? :( Rich
