(Took a look at this since I was doing the ffmpeg resync)

It's not a bug, it's a feature =)  I added stuff to av_open_input_file to test 
for a pre-existing AVFormatContext so I can override the default file reader 
stuff with the mythtv RingBuffer class functions.  Since you're not doing 
that, you're right, you don't want to preallocate.
