Leak in lavfi movie source

Reported by: Alexandre Ferrieux Owned by: Michael Niedermayer
Priority: important Component: avfilter
Version: git Keywords: overlay movie leak

Description

I have discovered that the movie source has a systematic memory leak. Initially it hit me on realtime several-input side-by-side overlays, but I have tracked it down also in a non-realtime case with a single movie source. It is independent on the output codec nor container, and also disappears if one replaces the movie source by the 'color' trivial source. Details below.

=========== COMMAND LINE ========================================

# ffmpeg_g.r29131git -flags low_delay -probesize 50000 -threads 3 -i flux.264 -vf '
movie=flux.264,setpts=PTS-STARTPTS [src1];

[in] setpts=PTS-STARTPTS, pad=768:288:0:0:red,

[src1]overlay=384:0

' -vcodec mpeg2video -strict experimental -r 15 -vb 8192k -f mpegts -

=========== SYMPTOMS ================================================

The leak is steady, eventually using up all RAM. Here is Valgrind's output after 5, 200, and 500 frames:

Looking at the big leaks, the callstack seems to indicate something when wrong in the lifecycle of buffers obtained through avfilter_default_get_video_buffer:
