225 * When multiple regions are defined in a single side-data block, they
226 * should be ordered from most to least important - some encoders are only
227 * capable of supporting a limited number of distinct regions, so will have
228 * to truncate the list.
230 * When overlapping regions are defined, the first region containing a given
231 * area of the frame applies.
233 typedef struct AVRegionOfInterest {
235 * Must be set to the size of this data structure (that is,
236 * sizeof(AVRegionOfInterest)).
240 * Distance in pixels from the top edge of the frame to the top and
241 * bottom edges and from the left edge of the frame to the left and
242 * right edges of the rectangle defining this region of interest.
244 * The constraints on a region are encoder dependent, so the region
245 * actually affected may be slightly larger for alignment or other
253 * Quantisation offset.
255 * Must be in the range -1 to +1. A value of zero indicates no quality
256 * change. A negative value asks for better quality (less quantisation),
257 * while a positive value asks for worse quality (greater quantisation).
259 * The range is calibrated so that the extreme values indicate the
260 * largest possible offset - if the rest of the frame is encoded with the
261 * worst possible quality, an offset of -1 indicates that this region
262 * should be encoded with the best possible quality anyway. Intermediate
263 * values are then interpolated in some codec-dependent way.
265 * For example, in 10-bit H.264 the quantisation parameter varies between
266 * -12 and 51. A typical qoffset value of -1/10 therefore indicates that
267 * this region should be encoded with a QP around one-tenth of the full
268 * range better than the rest of the frame. So, if most of the frame
269 * were to be encoded with a QP of around 30, this region would get a QP
270 * of around 24 (an offset of approximately -1/10 * (51 - -12) = -6.3).
271 * An extreme value of -1 would indicate that this region should be
272 * encoded with the best possible quality regardless of the treatment of
273 * the rest of the frame - that is, should be encoded at a QP of -12.

279 * This structure describes decoded (raw) audio or video data.
281 * AVFrame must be allocated using av_frame_alloc(). Note that this only
282 * allocates the AVFrame itself, the buffers for the data must be managed
283 * through other means (see below).
284 * AVFrame must be freed with av_frame_free().
286 * AVFrame is typically allocated once and then reused multiple times to hold
287 * different data (e.g. a single AVFrame to hold frames received from a
288 * decoder). In such a case, av_frame_unref() will free any references held by
289 * the frame and reset it to its original clean state before it
292 * The data described by an AVFrame is usually reference counted through the
293 * AVBuffer API. The underlying buffer references are stored in AVFrame.buf /
294 * AVFrame.extended_buf. An AVFrame is considered to be reference counted if at
295 * least one reference is set, i.e. if AVFrame.buf[0] != NULL. In such a case,
296 * every single data plane must be contained in one of the buffers in
297 * AVFrame.buf or AVFrame.extended_buf.
298 * There may be a single buffer for all the data, or one separate buffer for
299 * each plane, or anything in between.
