Ganesh Ajjanagadde 1d4af04adf avutil/attributes: add av_warn_unused_result
GCC 3.4 introduced an attribute warn_unused_result to warn when a programmer
discards the return value. Applying this judiciously across the codebase can help
in fixing a lot of problems. At a high level, functions which return error codes
should always be checked. More concretely, consider the functions ff_add_format
and the like in avfilter/formats.h. A quick examination shows that a large portion
of libavfilter fails to handle the associated errors, usually AVERROR(ENOMEM).
The above example was where I observed the utility of this, but it should be
useful in many places across the code base.

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.
  • ffserver is a multimedia streaming server for live broadcasts.
  • Additional small tools such as aviocat, ismindex and qt-faststart.

Documentation

The offline documentation is available in the doc/ directory.

The online documentation is available in the main website and in the wiki.
