[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] libavformat/rtpdec: fix issue with conversion from unsigned to signed

[Gilles Chanteperdrix]

When receiving an RTCP packet, the difference between the last RTCP
timestamp and the base timestamp may be negative. As these timestamps
are of the uint32_t type, the result becomes a large integer. Cast
the difference to int32_t to avoid this issue.

The result of this issue is very large start times for RTSP
streams, and difficulty to restart correctly after a pause.
