1 Never assume the API of libav* to be stable unless at least 1 month has passed
2 since the last major version increase.
4 The last version increases were:
6 libavdevice: 2015-08-28
7 libavfilter: 2015-08-28
8 libavformat: 2015-08-28

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

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

824 e1d9dbf Add a new installed header - buffersrc.h
825 It contains a new function av_buffersrc_buffer() that allows passing
826 frames to the 'buffer' filter, but unlike av_vsrc_buffer_add_frame()
827 it allows for direct rendering.

849 Deprecate AVCODEC_MAX_AUDIO_FRAME_SIZE.
850 Deprecate avcodec_decode_audio3() in favor of avcodec_decode_audio4().
851 avcodec_decode_audio4() writes output samples to an AVFrame, which allows
852 audio decoders to use get_buffer().
854 2011-12-04 - 560f773 - lavc 53.24.0

1677 Change the signature of avfilter_register() to make it return an
1678 int. This is required since now the registration operation may fail.
1680 2009-11-25 - 74a0059 - lavu 50.5.0 - pixdesc.h API
1681 Make the pixdesc.h API public.
1683 2009-10-27 - 243110f - lavfi 1.5.0 - AVFilter.next
1684 Add a next field to AVFilter, this is used for simplifying the
1685 registration and management of the registered filters.
1687 2009-10-23 - cccd292 - lavfi 1.4.1 - AVFilter.description
1688 Add a description field to AVFilter.
1690 2009-10-19 - 6b5dc05 - lavfi 1.3.0 - avfilter_make_format_list()
1691 Change the interface of avfilter_make_format_list() from
1692 avfilter_make_format_list(int n, ...) to
1693 avfilter_make_format_list(enum PixelFormat *pix_fmts).
1695 2009-10-18 - 0eb4ff9 - lavfi 1.0.0 - avfilter_get_video_buffer()
1696 Make avfilter_get_video_buffer() recursive and add the w and h
1699 2009-10-07 - 46c40e4 - lavfi 0.5.1 - AVFilterPic
1700 Add w and h fields to AVFilterPic.
1702 2009-06-22 - 92400be - lavf 52.34.1 - AVFormatContext.packet_size
1703 This is now an unsigned int instead of a signed int.
1705 2009-06-19 - a4276ba - lavc 52.32.0 - AVSubtitle.pts
1706 Add a pts field to AVSubtitle which gives the subtitle packet pts
1707 in AV_TIME_BASE. Some subtitle de-/encoders (e.g. XSUB) will
1708 not work right without this.
1710 2009-06-03 - 8f3f2e0 - lavc 52.30.2 - AV_PKT_FLAG_KEY
1711 PKT_FLAG_KEY has been deprecated and will be dropped at the next
1712 major version. Use AV_PKT_FLAG_KEY instead.
1714 2009-06-01 - f988ce6 - lavc 52.30.0 - av_lockmgr_register()
1715 av_lockmgr_register() can be used to register a callback function
1716 that lavc (and in the future, libraries that depend on lavc) can use
1717 to implement mutexes. The application should provide a callback function
1718 that implements the AV_LOCK_* operations described in avcodec.h.
1719 When the lock manager is registered, FFmpeg is guaranteed to behave
1720 correctly in a multi-threaded application.
1722 2009-04-30 - ce1d9c8 - lavc 52.28.0 - av_free_packet()
1723 av_free_packet() is no longer an inline function. It is now exported.
1725 2009-04-11 - 80d403f - lavc 52.25.0 - deprecate av_destruct_packet_nofree()
1726 Please use NULL instead. This has been supported since r16506
1727 (lavf > 52.23.1, lavc > 52.10.0).
1729 2009-04-07 - 7a00bba - lavc 52.23.0 - avcodec_decode_video/audio/subtitle
1730 The old decoding functions are deprecated, all new code should use the
1731 new functions avcodec_decode_video2(), avcodec_decode_audio3() and
1732 avcodec_decode_subtitle2(). These new functions take an AVPacket *pkt
1733 argument instead of a const uint8_t *buf / int buf_size pair.
1735 2009-04-03 - 7b09db3 - lavu 50.3.0 - av_fifo_space()
1736 Introduce the av_fifo_space() function.
1738 2009-04-02 - fabd246 - lavc 52.23.0 - AVPacket
1739 Move AVPacket declaration from libavformat/avformat.h to
1740 libavcodec/avcodec.h.
1742 2009-03-22 - 6e08ca9 - lavu 50.2.0 - RGB32 pixel formats
1743 Convert the pixel formats PIX_FMT_ARGB, PIX_FMT_RGBA, PIX_FMT_ABGR,
1744 PIX_FMT_BGRA, which were defined as macros, into enum PixelFormat values.
1745 Conversely PIX_FMT_RGB32, PIX_FMT_RGB32_1, PIX_FMT_BGR32 and
1746 PIX_FMT_BGR32_1 are now macros.
1747 avcodec_get_pix_fmt() now recognizes the "rgb32" and "bgr32" aliases.
1748 Re-sort the enum PixelFormat list accordingly.
1749 This change breaks API/ABI backward compatibility.
1751 2009-03-22 - f82674e - lavu 50.1.0 - PIX_FMT_RGB5X5 endian variants
1752 Add the enum PixelFormat values:
1753 PIX_FMT_RGB565BE, PIX_FMT_RGB565LE, PIX_FMT_RGB555BE, PIX_FMT_RGB555LE,
1754 PIX_FMT_BGR565BE, PIX_FMT_BGR565LE, PIX_FMT_BGR555BE, PIX_FMT_BGR555LE.
1756 2009-03-21 - ee6624e - lavu 50.0.0 - av_random*
1757 The Mersenne Twister PRNG implemented through the av_random* functions
1758 was removed. Use the lagged Fibonacci PRNG through the av_lfg* functions
1761 2009-03-08 - 41dd680 - lavu 50.0.0 - AVFifoBuffer
1762 av_fifo_init, av_fifo_read, av_fifo_write and av_fifo_realloc were dropped
1763 and replaced by av_fifo_alloc, av_fifo_generic_read, av_fifo_generic_write
1764 and av_fifo_realloc2.
1765 In addition, the order of the function arguments of av_fifo_generic_read
1766 was changed to match av_fifo_generic_write.
1767 The AVFifoBuffer/struct AVFifoBuffer may only be used in an opaque way by
1768 applications, they may not use sizeof() or directly access members.
1770 2009-03-01 - ec26457 - lavf 52.31.0 - Generic metadata API
1771 Introduce a new metadata API (see av_metadata_get() and friends).
1772 The old API is now deprecated and should not be used anymore. This especially
1773 includes the following structure fields:
1774 - AVFormatContext.title
1775 - AVFormatContext.author
1776 - AVFormatContext.copyright
1777 - AVFormatContext.comment
1778 - AVFormatContext.album
1779 - AVFormatContext.year
1780 - AVFormatContext.track
1781 - AVFormatContext.genre
1784 - AVProgram.provider_name
