Summary0000189: Crash in JM 16.1 Decoder
DescriptionThe JM 16.1 Decoder crashes after decoding a couple of frames even in an error free scenario.
Please find my encoder.cfg file attached.
What can be the possible reason for the crash and how can I overcome this?

Following is the detail of my decoder.cfg file:

NAL500.264 ........H.264/AVC coded bitstream
NAL500.yuv ........Output file, YUV/RGB
test_rec.yuv ........Ref sequence (for SNR)
1 ........Write 4:2:0 chroma components for monochrome streams
0 ........NAL mode (0=Annex B, 1: RTP packets)
0 ........SNR computation offset
2 ........Poc Scale (1 or 2)
500000 ........Rate_Decoder
104000 ........B_decoder
73000 ........F_decoder
leakybucketparam.cfg ........LeakyBucket Params
2 ........Err Concealment(0:Off,1:Frame Copy,2:Motion Copy)
4 ........Reference POC gap (2: IPP (Default), 4: IbP / IpP)
2 ........POC gap (2: IPP /IbP/IpP (Default), 4: IPP with frame skip = 1 etc.)
0 ........Silent decode
1 ........Enable Deblocking filter in intra only profiles (0=disable, 1=filter according to SPS parameters)

This is a file containing input parameters to the JVT H.264/AVC decoder.
The text line following each parameter is discarded by the decoder.

There are bugs in both the frame copy and motion copy error concealment implementations (even when used with error free sequences).

For motion copy, see https://ipbt.hhi.de/mantis/view.php?id=172
For frame copy, see https://ipbt.hhi.de/mantis/view.php?id=186 (contains a possible solution)

If you know your sequence is error free, you should switch off error concealment in decoder.cfg.

I tried to decode my file after turning off error concealment. My decoder still crashes.

After decoding this frame the decoder crashes.

It seems there is at least also an encoder bug that make the stream invalid.

The problem is actually caused by the decoder. When there is no data partition C (e.g. in the non-IDR intra frame) the decoder fails.

I think in the current decoding loop this cannot be fixed properly. I'm adding a dependency to decoder loop restructuring.
