and one more problem with the splitter vs. the movenc. If the h264
elementary stream starts with some rest before the 00 00 00 01 x9 of the
AUD (can happen when source is from TS), then this leads to a failed
condition in movenc.c (line 486) and thus that data is just written to
the mp4 without any checks leading to a corrupt file.

If i ensure that the extradata starts with 00 00 00 01 before giving
that to the movenc, it works fine, the resulting mp4 is ok. I don't know
however if that check should be part of the splitter as well or must be
performed independently of the splitter.
