[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] avcodec/mlpdec: don't depend on context channel layout when setting substream masks (PR #20766)

[James Almer via ffmpeg-devel]

PR #20766 opened by James Almer (jamrial)
URL: https://code.ffmpeg.org/FFmpeg/FFmpeg/pulls/20766
Patch URL: https://code.ffmpeg.org/FFmpeg/FFmpeg/pulls/20766.patch

If avctx->ch_layout is unset (as it's allowed and even expeced by the AV_CODEC_CAP_CHANNEL_CONF flag), the code setting substream masks will fail for stereo and mono layouts unless a downmix channel was requested.
Fix this by deriving the mask with coded values only.

Fixes issue #20764.
