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

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

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

830 Deprecate AVCODEC_MAX_AUDIO_FRAME_SIZE.
831 Deprecate avcodec_decode_audio3() in favor of avcodec_decode_audio4().
832 avcodec_decode_audio4() writes output samples to an AVFrame, which allows
833 audio decoders to use get_buffer().

1676 2009-10-18 - 0eb4ff9 - lavfi 1.0.0 - avfilter_get_video_buffer()
1677 Make avfilter_get_video_buffer() recursive and add the w and h
1680 2009-10-07 - 46c40e4 - lavfi 0.5.1 - AVFilterPic
1681 Add w and h fields to AVFilterPic.
1683 2009-06-22 - 92400be - lavf 52.34.1 - AVFormatContext.packet_size
1684 This is now an unsigned int instead of a signed int.
1686 2009-06-19 - a4276ba - lavc 52.32.0 - AVSubtitle.pts
1687 Add a pts field to AVSubtitle which gives the subtitle packet pts
1688 in AV_TIME_BASE. Some subtitle de-/encoders (e.g. XSUB) will
1689 not work right without this.
1691 2009-06-03 - 8f3f2e0 - lavc 52.30.2 - AV_PKT_FLAG_KEY
1692 PKT_FLAG_KEY has been deprecated and will be dropped at the next
1693 major version. Use AV_PKT_FLAG_KEY instead.
1695 2009-06-01 - f988ce6 - lavc 52.30.0 - av_lockmgr_register()
1696 av_lockmgr_register() can be used to register a callback function
1697 that lavc (and in the future, libraries that depend on lavc) can use
1698 to implement mutexes. The application should provide a callback function
1699 that implements the AV_LOCK_* operations described in avcodec.h.
1700 When the lock manager is registered, FFmpeg is guaranteed to behave
1701 correctly in a multi-threaded application.
1703 2009-04-30 - ce1d9c8 - lavc 52.28.0 - av_free_packet()
1704 av_free_packet() is no longer an inline function. It is now exported.
1706 2009-04-11 - 80d403f - lavc 52.25.0 - deprecate av_destruct_packet_nofree()
1707 Please use NULL instead. This has been supported since r16506
1708 (lavf > 52.23.1, lavc > 52.10.0).
1710 2009-04-07 - 7a00bba - lavc 52.23.0 - avcodec_decode_video/audio/subtitle
1711 The old decoding functions are deprecated, all new code should use the
1712 new functions avcodec_decode_video2(), avcodec_decode_audio3() and
1713 avcodec_decode_subtitle2(). These new functions take an AVPacket *pkt
1714 argument instead of a const uint8_t *buf / int buf_size pair.
1716 2009-04-03 - 7b09db3 - lavu 50.3.0 - av_fifo_space()
1717 Introduce the av_fifo_space() function.
1719 2009-04-02 - fabd246 - lavc 52.23.0 - AVPacket
1720 Move AVPacket declaration from libavformat/avformat.h to
1721 libavcodec/avcodec.h.
1723 2009-03-22 - 6e08ca9 - lavu 50.2.0 - RGB32 pixel formats
1724 Convert the pixel formats PIX_FMT_ARGB, PIX_FMT_RGBA, PIX_FMT_ABGR,
1725 PIX_FMT_BGRA, which were defined as macros, into enum PixelFormat values.
1726 Conversely PIX_FMT_RGB32, PIX_FMT_RGB32_1, PIX_FMT_BGR32 and
1727 PIX_FMT_BGR32_1 are now macros.
1728 avcodec_get_pix_fmt() now recognizes the "rgb32" and "bgr32" aliases.
1729 Re-sort the enum PixelFormat list accordingly.
1730 This change breaks API/ABI backward compatibility.
1732 2009-03-22 - f82674e - lavu 50.1.0 - PIX_FMT_RGB5X5 endian variants
1733 Add the enum PixelFormat values:
1734 PIX_FMT_RGB565BE, PIX_FMT_RGB565LE, PIX_FMT_RGB555BE, PIX_FMT_RGB555LE,
1735 PIX_FMT_BGR565BE, PIX_FMT_BGR565LE, PIX_FMT_BGR555BE, PIX_FMT_BGR555LE.
1737 2009-03-21 - ee6624e - lavu 50.0.0 - av_random*
1738 The Mersenne Twister PRNG implemented through the av_random* functions
1739 was removed. Use the lagged Fibonacci PRNG through the av_lfg* functions
1742 2009-03-08 - 41dd680 - lavu 50.0.0 - AVFifoBuffer
1743 av_fifo_init, av_fifo_read, av_fifo_write and av_fifo_realloc were dropped
1744 and replaced by av_fifo_alloc, av_fifo_generic_read, av_fifo_generic_write
1745 and av_fifo_realloc2.
1746 In addition, the order of the function arguments of av_fifo_generic_read
1747 was changed to match av_fifo_generic_write.
1748 The AVFifoBuffer/struct AVFifoBuffer may only be used in an opaque way by
1749 applications, they may not use sizeof() or directly access members.
1751 2009-03-01 - ec26457 - lavf 52.31.0 - Generic metadata API
1752 Introduce a new metadata API (see av_metadata_get() and friends).
1753 The old API is now deprecated and should not be used anymore. This especially
1754 includes the following structure fields:
1755 - AVFormatContext.title
1756 - AVFormatContext.author
1757 - AVFormatContext.copyright
1758 - AVFormatContext.comment
1759 - AVFormatContext.album
1760 - AVFormatContext.year
1761 - AVFormatContext.track
1762 - AVFormatContext.genre
1765 - AVProgram.provider_name
