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

962 e1d9dbf Add a new installed header - buffersrc.h
963 It contains a new function av_buffersrc_buffer() that allows passing
964 frames to the 'buffer' filter, but unlike av_vsrc_buffer_add_frame()

1814 2009-11-25 - 86a60fa - lavfi 1.9.0 - avfilter_register()
1815 Change the signature of avfilter_register() to make it return an
1816 int. This is required since now the registration operation may fail.

1843 2009-06-19 - a4276ba - lavc 52.32.0 - AVSubtitle.pts
1844 Add a pts field to AVSubtitle which gives the subtitle packet pts
1845 in AV_TIME_BASE. Some subtitle de-/encoders (e.g. XSUB) will

1848 2009-06-03 - 8f3f2e0 - lavc 52.30.2 - AV_PKT_FLAG_KEY
1849 PKT_FLAG_KEY has been deprecated and will be dropped at the next
1850 major version. Use AV_PKT_FLAG_KEY instead.
1852 2009-06-01 - f988ce6 - lavc 52.30.0 - av_lockmgr_register()
1853 av_lockmgr_register() can be used to register a callback function
1854 that lavc (and in the future, libraries that depend on lavc) can use
1855 to implement mutexes. The application should provide a callback function
1856 that implements the AV_LOCK_* operations described in avcodec.h.
1857 When the lock manager is registered, FFmpeg is guaranteed to behave
1858 correctly in a multi-threaded application.
1860 2009-04-30 - ce1d9c8 - lavc 52.28.0 - av_free_packet()
1861 av_free_packet() is no longer an inline function. It is now exported.
1863 2009-04-11 - 80d403f - lavc 52.25.0 - deprecate av_destruct_packet_nofree()
1864 Please use NULL instead. This has been supported since r16506
1865 (lavf > 52.23.1, lavc > 52.10.0).
1867 2009-04-07 - 7a00bba - lavc 52.23.0 - avcodec_decode_video/audio/subtitle
1868 The old decoding functions are deprecated, all new code should use the
1869 new functions avcodec_decode_video2(), avcodec_decode_audio3() and
1870 avcodec_decode_subtitle2(). These new functions take an AVPacket *pkt
1871 argument instead of a const uint8_t *buf / int buf_size pair.
1873 2009-04-03 - 7b09db3 - lavu 50.3.0 - av_fifo_space()
1874 Introduce the av_fifo_space() function.
1876 2009-04-02 - fabd246 - lavc 52.23.0 - AVPacket
1877 Move AVPacket declaration from libavformat/avformat.h to
1878 libavcodec/avcodec.h.
1880 2009-03-22 - 6e08ca9 - lavu 50.2.0 - RGB32 pixel formats
1881 Convert the pixel formats PIX_FMT_ARGB, PIX_FMT_RGBA, PIX_FMT_ABGR,
1882 PIX_FMT_BGRA, which were defined as macros, into enum PixelFormat values.
1883 Conversely PIX_FMT_RGB32, PIX_FMT_RGB32_1, PIX_FMT_BGR32 and
1884 PIX_FMT_BGR32_1 are now macros.
1885 avcodec_get_pix_fmt() now recognizes the "rgb32" and "bgr32" aliases.
1886 Re-sort the enum PixelFormat list accordingly.
1887 This change breaks API/ABI backward compatibility.
1889 2009-03-22 - f82674e - lavu 50.1.0 - PIX_FMT_RGB5X5 endian variants
1890 Add the enum PixelFormat values:
1891 PIX_FMT_RGB565BE, PIX_FMT_RGB565LE, PIX_FMT_RGB555BE, PIX_FMT_RGB555LE,
1892 PIX_FMT_BGR565BE, PIX_FMT_BGR565LE, PIX_FMT_BGR555BE, PIX_FMT_BGR555LE.
1894 2009-03-21 - ee6624e - lavu 50.0.0 - av_random*
1895 The Mersenne Twister PRNG implemented through the av_random* functions
1896 was removed. Use the lagged Fibonacci PRNG through the av_lfg* functions
1899 2009-03-08 - 41dd680 - lavu 50.0.0 - AVFifoBuffer
1900 av_fifo_init, av_fifo_read, av_fifo_write and av_fifo_realloc were dropped
1901 and replaced by av_fifo_alloc, av_fifo_generic_read, av_fifo_generic_write
1902 and av_fifo_realloc2.
1903 In addition, the order of the function arguments of av_fifo_generic_read
1904 was changed to match av_fifo_generic_write.
1905 The AVFifoBuffer/struct AVFifoBuffer may only be used in an opaque way by
1906 applications, they may not use sizeof() or directly access members.
1908 2009-03-01 - ec26457 - lavf 52.31.0 - Generic metadata API
1909 Introduce a new metadata API (see av_metadata_get() and friends).
1910 The old API is now deprecated and should not be used anymore. This especially
1911 includes the following structure fields:
1912 - AVFormatContext.title
1913 - AVFormatContext.author
1914 - AVFormatContext.copyright
1915 - AVFormatContext.comment
1916 - AVFormatContext.album
1917 - AVFormatContext.year
1918 - AVFormatContext.track
1919 - AVFormatContext.genre
1922 - AVProgram.provider_name
