Comment (by thilo.borgmann):

 You've made a valueable contribution in reporting this bug.
 Even more to such detailed information and doing well in finding the
 memleak.

 However, you've just taken the follow-ups too personal.
 The reply from Cigaes has nothing to do with the bug itself and I consider
 it just bikeshedding.
 Nevertheless you treated that statement like a proposal to fix your bug
 (but you should have already known better at that time).

 Miachael just fixed your bug. His note is more a hint that even this
 example might have been implemented cleaner (avcodec_close() is mentioned
 as an example there) - most likely, as I said, not that your example will
 be used by others as-is.

 Please continue contributing!
