* To iterate through all the dictionary entries, you can set the matching key

*
* @param prev Set to the previous matching element to find the next.
* If set to NULL the first matching element is returned.
* @param key matching key
* @param flags Allows case as well as suffix-insensitive comparisons.
* @return Found entry or NULL, changing key or value leads to undefined behavior.
* @param flags a collection of AV_DICT_* flags controlling how the entry is retrieved
* @return found entry or NULL in case no matching entry was found in the dictionary
