Problems dumping H264 stream from an Axis M1014 camera

[Andy]

I have a similar ffmpeg problem that described in ticket 1734 ​http://trac.ffmpeg.org/ticket/1734
I downloaded the latest 2.0 release, but the problem is still there. Then, Carl suggested to test 2e4ec89, same problem.
Below is my debug log from 2e4ec89. The release 2.0 debug log can be found here ​http://ffmpeg-users.933282.n4.nabble.com/Problems-dumping-H264-stream-from-an-Axis-camera-td4660059.html

BTW, I used rtsp://192.168.8.132/axis-media/media.amp in VLC, and I was able to view the video, so the camera is streaming.

Please let me know what you think.
