This is the equivalent to what 7d317d4706b49d572a1eb5269438753be18362c7
did for the codec-specific options.
av_opt_copy has specific handling so it's fine that we already copied
the whole context before.

Btw, if someone can make time for reviewing it that would likely
be time well spent.
For example it seems the code also leaks the memory for the AVPacket
it mallocs sometimes.

the change looks reasonable

you mean reviewing the whole frame_thread_encoder code searching
for issues unrelated to tickets or patches ?
ATM i think i have too much i should have done "yesterday" to add that

is there some way by which this can be reproduced or is it completely
random ?

Sure, I understand. Though just some comments around the thinking or
such (e.g. if it's intentional or just outdated API that it is not using
av_packet_alloc, or what exactly is the av_dup_packet there for).

It's not random, but so far the test-case is only mencoder, so
I can't guarantee the issue is in that code. The only reason
I believe that is because I only see a AVPacket leak when threads
are enabled, but there are other leaks that need fixing in mencoder...
But otherwise, just
valgrind --leak-check=full --show-leak-kinds=all
./mencoder ~/Downloads/small_test2.dv -o test.avi -ovc lavc -nosound
-lavcopts vcodec=dvvideo:threads=10 -frames 2
works, giving:

IIRC av_dup_packet() is there so cases of packets that have their
memory reused in the next call work.
av_dup_packet() properly allocates a packet or if its already properly
allocated it does nothing

its possibly av_dup_packet() is not needed anymore

thx
