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

599 To provide backwards compatibility, PixelFormat is now #defined as

602 'PixelFormat' identifier. Such code should either #undef PixelFormat
603 or stop using the PixelFormat name.

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

825 e1d9dbf Add a new installed header - buffersrc.h
826 It contains a new function av_buffersrc_buffer() that allows passing
827 frames to the 'buffer' filter, but unlike av_vsrc_buffer_add_frame()
828 it allows for direct rendering.
829 1c9e340 Add avfilter_copy_frame_props() for copying properties from
830 AVFrame to AVFilterBufferRef.

850 Deprecate AVCODEC_MAX_AUDIO_FRAME_SIZE.
851 Deprecate avcodec_decode_audio3() in favor of avcodec_decode_audio4().
852 avcodec_decode_audio4() writes output samples to an AVFrame, which allows
853 audio decoders to use get_buffer().

1678 Change the signature of avfilter_register() to make it return an
1679 int. This is required since now the registration operation may fail.
1681 2009-11-25 - 74a0059 - lavu 50.5.0 - pixdesc.h API
1682 Make the pixdesc.h API public.
1684 2009-10-27 - 243110f - lavfi 1.5.0 - AVFilter.next
1685 Add a next field to AVFilter, this is used for simplifying the
1686 registration and management of the registered filters.
1688 2009-10-23 - cccd292 - lavfi 1.4.1 - AVFilter.description
1689 Add a description field to AVFilter.
1691 2009-10-19 - 6b5dc05 - lavfi 1.3.0 - avfilter_make_format_list()
1692 Change the interface of avfilter_make_format_list() from
1693 avfilter_make_format_list(int n, ...) to
1694 avfilter_make_format_list(enum PixelFormat *pix_fmts).
1696 2009-10-18 - 0eb4ff9 - lavfi 1.0.0 - avfilter_get_video_buffer()
1697 Make avfilter_get_video_buffer() recursive and add the w and h
1700 2009-10-07 - 46c40e4 - lavfi 0.5.1 - AVFilterPic
1701 Add w and h fields to AVFilterPic.
1703 2009-06-22 - 92400be - lavf 52.34.1 - AVFormatContext.packet_size
1704 This is now an unsigned int instead of a signed int.
1706 2009-06-19 - a4276ba - lavc 52.32.0 - AVSubtitle.pts
1707 Add a pts field to AVSubtitle which gives the subtitle packet pts
1708 in AV_TIME_BASE. Some subtitle de-/encoders (e.g. XSUB) will
1709 not work right without this.
1711 2009-06-03 - 8f3f2e0 - lavc 52.30.2 - AV_PKT_FLAG_KEY
1712 PKT_FLAG_KEY has been deprecated and will be dropped at the next
1713 major version. Use AV_PKT_FLAG_KEY instead.
1715 2009-06-01 - f988ce6 - lavc 52.30.0 - av_lockmgr_register()
1716 av_lockmgr_register() can be used to register a callback function
1717 that lavc (and in the future, libraries that depend on lavc) can use
1718 to implement mutexes. The application should provide a callback function
1719 that implements the AV_LOCK_* operations described in avcodec.h.
1720 When the lock manager is registered, FFmpeg is guaranteed to behave
1721 correctly in a multi-threaded application.
1723 2009-04-30 - ce1d9c8 - lavc 52.28.0 - av_free_packet()
1724 av_free_packet() is no longer an inline function. It is now exported.
1726 2009-04-11 - 80d403f - lavc 52.25.0 - deprecate av_destruct_packet_nofree()
1727 Please use NULL instead. This has been supported since r16506
1728 (lavf > 52.23.1, lavc > 52.10.0).
1730 2009-04-07 - 7a00bba - lavc 52.23.0 - avcodec_decode_video/audio/subtitle
1731 The old decoding functions are deprecated, all new code should use the
1732 new functions avcodec_decode_video2(), avcodec_decode_audio3() and
1733 avcodec_decode_subtitle2(). These new functions take an AVPacket *pkt
1734 argument instead of a const uint8_t *buf / int buf_size pair.
1736 2009-04-03 - 7b09db3 - lavu 50.3.0 - av_fifo_space()
1737 Introduce the av_fifo_space() function.
1739 2009-04-02 - fabd246 - lavc 52.23.0 - AVPacket
1740 Move AVPacket declaration from libavformat/avformat.h to
1741 libavcodec/avcodec.h.
1743 2009-03-22 - 6e08ca9 - lavu 50.2.0 - RGB32 pixel formats
1744 Convert the pixel formats PIX_FMT_ARGB, PIX_FMT_RGBA, PIX_FMT_ABGR,
1745 PIX_FMT_BGRA, which were defined as macros, into enum PixelFormat values.
1746 Conversely PIX_FMT_RGB32, PIX_FMT_RGB32_1, PIX_FMT_BGR32 and
1747 PIX_FMT_BGR32_1 are now macros.
1748 avcodec_get_pix_fmt() now recognizes the "rgb32" and "bgr32" aliases.
1749 Re-sort the enum PixelFormat list accordingly.
1750 This change breaks API/ABI backward compatibility.
1752 2009-03-22 - f82674e - lavu 50.1.0 - PIX_FMT_RGB5X5 endian variants
1753 Add the enum PixelFormat values:
1754 PIX_FMT_RGB565BE, PIX_FMT_RGB565LE, PIX_FMT_RGB555BE, PIX_FMT_RGB555LE,
1755 PIX_FMT_BGR565BE, PIX_FMT_BGR565LE, PIX_FMT_BGR555BE, PIX_FMT_BGR555LE.
1757 2009-03-21 - ee6624e - lavu 50.0.0 - av_random*
1758 The Mersenne Twister PRNG implemented through the av_random* functions
1759 was removed. Use the lagged Fibonacci PRNG through the av_lfg* functions
1762 2009-03-08 - 41dd680 - lavu 50.0.0 - AVFifoBuffer
1763 av_fifo_init, av_fifo_read, av_fifo_write and av_fifo_realloc were dropped
1764 and replaced by av_fifo_alloc, av_fifo_generic_read, av_fifo_generic_write
1765 and av_fifo_realloc2.
1766 In addition, the order of the function arguments of av_fifo_generic_read
1767 was changed to match av_fifo_generic_write.
1768 The AVFifoBuffer/struct AVFifoBuffer may only be used in an opaque way by
1769 applications, they may not use sizeof() or directly access members.
1771 2009-03-01 - ec26457 - lavf 52.31.0 - Generic metadata API
1772 Introduce a new metadata API (see av_metadata_get() and friends).
1773 The old API is now deprecated and should not be used anymore. This especially
1774 includes the following structure fields:
1775 - AVFormatContext.title
1776 - AVFormatContext.author
1777 - AVFormatContext.copyright
1778 - AVFormatContext.comment
1779 - AVFormatContext.album
1780 - AVFormatContext.year
1781 - AVFormatContext.track
1782 - AVFormatContext.genre
1785 - AVProgram.provider_name
