Well... there is something weird going on, because as long as this error exists it never seems to decode beyond the first frame (for testing I made it return 0 instead).
The second frame uses that codec, and it does decode the cockpit correctly.
That is admittedly a bit boring though on its own, but the other codec is much more complex and I may or may not manage to implement it.
You are correct that I should have mentioned that the file does not play.
