Maybe irrelevant but we normally use uint8_t.

I did not completely check so sorry if I miss 
something but afaict the "blob" is an atom 
with name "drm " and should be processed like 
all other atoms: Add an entry (or several) to 
mov_default_parse_table[] and function(s) that 
do not seek but read the atoms with avio_r*(), 
avio_read() and avio_seek().
The current solution would not work with pipe 
input, this limitation should be avoided if 
easily possible.
(And the seeking is ugly.)

This will not be necessary with the atom reading 
but in any case, library functions must never 
exit(), they simply "return AVERROR_INVALIDDATA;"

As Hendrik wrote, this should be an AVOption, 
see the many option at the end of mov.c.
I also hope this will make hexchar2int() 
unnecessary.

Are these necessary?
(Are they changed later on or is it sufficient 
to pass the original pointers?)

Thank you for the license change!

Great that you are working on this, Carl Eugen
