* [FFmpeg-devel] Can a GetByteContext have a "sub" context?

Hello,

Is it possible to have a "sub" context with a limited byte range for a
super-context?
i.e. I read 4 bytes from context c1, these are a length, c2 =
GetByteContext_from(c1, len) ?  Or is "GetByteContext(&c2, c1.buffer,
len);" enough?

Thanks!
      Manuel

second one is what I do:
    bytestream2_init(&c2, c1.buffer, len)

also need to check that that len does not exceed c1 bytes remaining. use bytestream2_get_bytes_left(c1).
