Cannot send a packet to the decoder. Error code: -1094995529 : Invalid data found when processing input

[Khhs167]

I'd love to attach the video I've been using, but I am currently on limited and slow data.

[Khhs167]

After further investigation, it seems like TryGetFrame(or possibly GetFrame) is the root of the problem.

When using TryGetNextFrame it seems like it suddenly works.

I'll do some more testing!

[Khhs167]

Even more investigation later, and these kinds of errors seem to be more random that I thought.
All of a sudden TryGetNextFrame stopped working...

I wonder if it has something to do with threading?

The decoding thread shouldn't be ongoing though? Shouldn't that be invoked and then waited for?

It might be a threading issue, but I'm not sure. Did you test other video files? What decoding thread do you mean? Is the Video.Step method called from another thread? FFMediaToolkit isn't thread-safe, so make sure that the TryGetFrame isn't called on different threads at the same time. You can try wrapping it with lock statement to ensure that.

I am calling TryGetFrame from the same thread I do all FFmpeg stuff.
I managed to get ogv to work smoothly, mp4 and mov had their own issues(mp4 was "reiniting context", mov I don't remember, but it was 2.4 GB which I ain't dealin' with).

I didn't try other webm's but I tried re-encoding etc.
