H.264: temporal direct mvs are scaled in i32 and clipped to the spec range
H.264: temporal direct mvs are scaled in i32 and clipped to the spec range Refs #1183 (extends its grouped codec-overflow list) · **Refs storytold/soundcraft#994** (the same decoder code's reviewed fix; its mvL1-derivation shape is followed exactly) ## What was wrong Opening a crafted B-slice panicked a debug build in the temporal direct motion derivation (`crates/h264/src/slicedec.rs`, inline in `derive_direct`): the scale `(dsf · mvCol + 128) >> 8` was truncated with `as i16`, wrapping mvL0 past the spec's motion-vector range, and `m0[0] − mv_col[0]` (plain i16 subtraction) then panicked with "attempt to subtract with overflow". `dsf` is clamped to [−1024, 1023]
