Moved the check inside and at the end of the if (pktl) as per Michael Niedermayer's suggestion.
This patch is based on one from Blake Senftner ( bsenftner at earthlink.net ).

The hanging in av_read_frame can be reproduced with an rtmp stream that is aborted midway and ffplay (for example) playing that stream.

(https://ffmpeg.org/pipermail/ffmpeg-devel/2019-December/253662.html).
One could either allow av_read_frame() to return unclean packets on
error or you would have to add the necessary initializations in your
code (or you would have to make sure that your code is not triggered
before the first call to read_frame_internal()).

One could theoretically argue that it would make sense to only call the
check after the first read_frame_internal and only before each 
read_frame_internal. Sadly thats not as simple to achieve as moving
the code around, so i didnt suggest it previously

thx

I am afraid I do not know enough of the ffmpeg internals to make the 
initialization changes you propose.
