542 To provide backwards compatibility, PixelFormat is now #defined as
544 Note that this can break user code that includes pixfmt.h and uses the
545 'PixelFormat' identifier. Such code should either #undef PixelFormat
546 or stop using the PixelFormat name.

649 For audio formats with fixed frame size, the last frame
650 no longer needs to be padded with silence, libavcodec
651 will handle this internally (effectively all encoders
652 behave as if they had CODEC_CAP_SMALL_LAST_FRAME set).

1679 2009-04-03 - 7b09db3 - lavu 50.3.0 - av_fifo_space()
1680 Introduce the av_fifo_space() function.
1682 2009-04-02 - fabd246 - lavc 52.23.0 - AVPacket
1683 Move AVPacket declaration from libavformat/avformat.h to
1684 libavcodec/avcodec.h.
1686 2009-03-22 - 6e08ca9 - lavu 50.2.0 - RGB32 pixel formats
1687 Convert the pixel formats PIX_FMT_ARGB, PIX_FMT_RGBA, PIX_FMT_ABGR,
1688 PIX_FMT_BGRA, which were defined as macros, into enum PixelFormat values.
1689 Conversely PIX_FMT_RGB32, PIX_FMT_RGB32_1, PIX_FMT_BGR32 and
1690 PIX_FMT_BGR32_1 are now macros.
1691 avcodec_get_pix_fmt() now recognizes the "rgb32" and "bgr32" aliases.
1692 Re-sort the enum PixelFormat list accordingly.
1693 This change breaks API/ABI backward compatibility.
1695 2009-03-22 - f82674e - lavu 50.1.0 - PIX_FMT_RGB5X5 endian variants
1696 Add the enum PixelFormat values:
1697 PIX_FMT_RGB565BE, PIX_FMT_RGB565LE, PIX_FMT_RGB555BE, PIX_FMT_RGB555LE,
1698 PIX_FMT_BGR565BE, PIX_FMT_BGR565LE, PIX_FMT_BGR555BE, PIX_FMT_BGR555LE.
1700 2009-03-21 - ee6624e - lavu 50.0.0 - av_random*
1701 The Mersenne Twister PRNG implemented through the av_random* functions
1702 was removed. Use the lagged Fibonacci PRNG through the av_lfg* functions
1705 2009-03-08 - 41dd680 - lavu 50.0.0 - AVFifoBuffer
1706 av_fifo_init, av_fifo_read, av_fifo_write and av_fifo_realloc were dropped
1707 and replaced by av_fifo_alloc, av_fifo_generic_read, av_fifo_generic_write
1708 and av_fifo_realloc2.
1709 In addition, the order of the function arguments of av_fifo_generic_read
1710 was changed to match av_fifo_generic_write.
1711 The AVFifoBuffer/struct AVFifoBuffer may only be used in an opaque way by
1712 applications, they may not use sizeof() or directly access members.
1714 2009-03-01 - ec26457 - lavf 52.31.0 - Generic metadata API
1715 Introduce a new metadata API (see av_metadata_get() and friends).
1716 The old API is now deprecated and should not be used anymore. This especially
1717 includes the following structure fields:
1718 - AVFormatContext.title
1719 - AVFormatContext.author
1720 - AVFormatContext.copyright
1721 - AVFormatContext.comment
1722 - AVFormatContext.album
1723 - AVFormatContext.year
1724 - AVFormatContext.track
1725 - AVFormatContext.genre
1728 - AVProgram.provider_name
