Description (last modified by namniav)

Summary of the bug:

https://ffmpeg.org/doxygen/4.1/rational_8c_source.html#l00093

av_add_q(0/-1, -1/0) incorrectly returns 1/0.
Adding 0 to -inf should be -inf, not inf.

More generally, av_add_q(x/-1, -1/0) should return -inf, not inf.

  1. The doc says Add two rationals., neither +∞ nor -∞ are rationals.
  1. Anyway, integer 0 does not have a sign, so -1/0 is the same as -1/-0, i.e. 1/0.
