What have you done about the security implications of pushing user-provided data into ffmpeg straight off the wire? How worried about this are you? Obviously ffmpeg was not built with untrusted input in mind. I have only paranoia as a justification, but I bet I could make it crash pretty hard, and with a bit more work I bet I could design an input that caused ffmpeg to just fill your disk forever.
How much work have you had to do around these issues? Did they prove to be bigger or smaller than you anticipated?
