At least I have the same understanding from the docs, and think your
approach is valid.

To figure out how it happens, you will have to look at the code and
maybe add debug info. There's a function in there (somewhere) that
determines what kind of stream a stream is. Its "pic" result is
probably being ignored somewhere.

Do you have a small input sample that you could share (with me), so I
can reproduce the behavior?
