CCExtractor Development

Compilation warnings in C11, possibly other new compilers

Introduction

CCExtractor is a tool to extract subtitles/closed captions from video streams. It's used by universities for research purposes, as well by regular users that want to extract captions from various formats.

The task

When compiling with the GCC that comes with Debian 9 a number of previously non-existing warnings appear. Compilation is successful, but we need to fix these warnings, either by correcting the code (but without breaking it for C99 for example) or by using the required switches for the compiler.

Requirements to complete this task

We expect a pull request that fixes at least two different warnings.
