This happens when writing the trailer of a file containing audio

from IRC:
<thardin> maybe it should print a warning that there has been no
video?

maybe, but what would be the right condition ? just this case ? or when
writing any edit unit without video? or... ?
I haven't been able to find clear references on this (well, those smpte
specs I googled aren't esp. easy to read either), but e.g. the muxer
refuses to mux without exactly one video stream, so maybe, an empty
video stream is also an error; I don't know

I'm not particularly fond of second-guessing these kinds of things. D-10
is really anal about what constitutes a legal file, so it's probably
best not to write anything if something seems amiss. In the end, the
real test for correctness is whether the output works with all gear for
your particular use case. But segfaults are important to fix, so I'm not
too concerned here. Plus my main concern is mxfdec, not mxfenc.


Why not simply return error and print an error explaining "An audio packet was muxed before a video, this is not supported."

Segfault -> error is much better than segfault -> possibly broken file.
