null pointer dereference while running ffmpeg2theora with "poc" option

Running 'ffmpeg2theora poc' with the attached file raises null pointer dereference
which may allow a remote attack to cause a denial-of-service attack
I expected the program to terminate without segfault, but the program crashes as follow

-------------------------------------------
