Hi,
this commit introduces a regression for me.
I'm trying to extract a thumb from the middle of a live TS, containing one
HEVC-stream.
Unfortunately I'm not sure if I can provide a sample, but before this patch
I would always get a good looking thumb, but with this patch I would for
the most part get a mostly gray frame.

If I generates a few more thumbnails i see that it eventually spits out the
same frame that ffmpeg before this patch produced as the first thumb, and
it looks OK.

However it is much more blocky than what the previous ffmpeg produced:
This is the command I want to run:

ffmpeg -nostdin -y -an -i hevc_fail.ts -vframes 1 -vf scale=iw*sar:ih thumb%d.jpg -v 100

with this patch:

If i let it generates a few more thumbs I end up with a "good" thumb: 
http://kolbu.ws/~chiller/thumb18.62bd8deef9005dbc9750e3bdc12fbf9b50392adc.jpg

However, if you compare the two you will see that even the good thumb with
this patch is much more blocky.
