 Summary of the bug:

 Our application handles hundreds of video files produced by the same
 specific hardware set and uses ffprobe to read the metadata of the files.

 We use the  the
 [http://www.usa.canon.com/cusa/professional/products/professional_cameras/hd_video_cameras/xa25
 Canon XA25] camera to shoot videos which are then transported to the
 [http://www.teradek.com/products/cube_155 Teradek cube 155] that streams
 the video file via NFS to our local server where the ffprobe operation
 happens.

 Out of ~100 files we had 5 failures with ffprobe with the following error
 message:

 > Unsupported codec with id 0 for input stream 2

 The full output before the this error message is:
