Vittorio Giovara dca23ffbc7 lavc: Deprecate AVPicture structure and related functions
This structure served as a bridge between data pointers and frames,
but it suffers from several limitations:
- it is not refcounted and data must be copied to every time
- it cannot be expanded without ABI break due to being used on the stack
- its functions are just wrappers to imgutils which add a layer of
  unneeded indirection, and maintenance burden
- it allows hacks like embedding uncompressed data in packets
- its use is often confusing to our users

AVFrame provides a much better API, and, if a full blown frame is not
needed, it is just as simple and more straightfoward to use data and
linesize arrays directly.

Libav

Build Status

Libav 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.
  • libavresample implements audio mixing and resampling routines.
  • libswscale implements color conversion and scaling routines.

Tools

  • avconv is a command line toolbox to manipulate, convert and stream multimedia content.
  • avplay is a minimalistic multimedia player.
  • avprobe is a simple analisys tool to inspect multimedia content.
  • Additional small tools such as aviocat, ismindex and qt-faststart.
