Andreas Rheinhardt 2ff40b98ec avformat: Deprecate AVFMT_FLAG_PRIV_OPT, remove av_demuxer_open on bump
This flag was added in 492026209b
in conjunction with av_demuxer_open() to allow to pass private
options to demuxers. It worked as follows: av_open_input_stream()
(the predecessor of avformat_open_input()) would not call the
read_header function if this flag is set. Instead the user could set
private options of the demuxer via the format's private class after
avformat_open_input() and then call av_demuxer_open() which called
the format's read_header function.

This approach was abandoned in e37f161e66
and av_demuxer_open() deprecated; instead the AVDictionary based way of
passing private options to the demuxer was choosen. Yet
AVFMT_FLAG_PRIV_OPT has never been deprecated and av_demuxer_open()
never removed. This commit implements the deprecation of the flag and
schedules av_demuxer_open for removal on the next major bump.
Given that av_demuxer_open() has been deprecated in 2012 and that this
flag is useless without it, the flag will be ignored after the next
major version bump.

FFmpeg README

FFmpeg is a collection of libraries and tools to process multimedia content such as audio, video, subtitles and related metadata.

Libraries

  • libavcodec provides implementation of a wider range of codecs.
  • libavformat implements streaming protocols, container formats and basic I/O access.
  • libavutil includes hashers, decompressors and miscellaneous utility functions.
  • libavfilter provides a mean to alter decoded Audio and Video through chain of filters.
  • libavdevice provides an abstraction to access capture and playback devices.
  • libswresample implements audio mixing and resampling routines.
  • libswscale implements color conversion and scaling routines.

Tools

  • ffmpeg is a command line toolbox to manipulate, convert and stream multimedia content.
  • ffplay is a minimalistic multimedia player.
  • ffprobe is a simple analysis tool to inspect multimedia content.
  • Additional small tools such as aviocat, ismindex and qt-faststart.
