[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] movenc: ensure chapters track extradata is not null and populated (PR #20315)

[Damiano Galassi via ffmpeg-devel]

PR #20315 opened by Damiano Galassi (galad)
URL: https://code.ffmpeg.org/FFmpeg/FFmpeg/pulls/20315
Patch URL: https://code.ffmpeg.org/FFmpeg/FFmpeg/pulls/20315.patch

Fix a regression introduced in 4eca8df, writing chapters failed if chapters where not available before mov_write_header() is called, so the chapter track is written in mov_write_trailer(), unfortunately the new track->extradata and track->extradata_size were NULL.

I don't know if this can be reproduced with the FFmpeg cli, but I noticed it when updating HandBrake to FFmpeg 8.
