Hello,

first thread executes :
----
pthread_mutex_lock(&(pFilter->condmut));
while(pFilter->received_packet != TS_PER_UDP) {
	pthread_cond_wait(&(pFilter->condvar),&(pFilter->condmut));
}
memcpy(buffer,pFilter->InBuffer,buffer_size);
pFilter->next_packet = pFilter->InBuffer;
pFilter->received_packet = 0;
pthread_mutex_unlock(&(pFilter->condmut));
----

second thread executes :
----
pthread_mutex_lock(&condmut);
memcpy(next_packet,packet,TSPACKET_SIZE);
received_packet++;
next_packet += TSPACKET_SIZE;
if (received_packet == TS_PER_UDP) {
	pthread_cond_signal(&condvar);
}
pthread_mutex_unlock(&condmut);
----


executing this leads to total freeze on my machine.
I have to reset it and some files get corrupted.
Can you see anything wrong in this code ?
