Andreas Rheinhardt 1e93f5060f cbs: Allow non-blank packets in ff_cbs_write_packet
Up until now, ff_cbs_write_packet always initialized the packet
structure it received without documenting this behaviour; furthermore,
the packet's buffer would (on success) be overwritten with the new
buffer without unreferencing the old. This meant that the input packet
had to be either clean (otherwise there would be memleaks) in which case
the initialization is redundant or uninitialized. ff_cbs_write_packet
was never used with uninitialized packets, so the initialization was
redundant. Worse yet, it forced callers to use more than one packet and
made it difficult to add side-data to a packet designated for output,
because said side-data could only be attached after the call to
ff_cbs_write_packet.

This has been changed. It is now allowed to use a non-blank packet.
The currently existing buffer will be unreferenced and replaced by
the new one, as will be the accompanying fields (i.e. data and size).
The rest isn't touched at all.

This change will enable us to use only one packet in the bitstream
filters that rely on CBS.

This commit also updates the documentation of ff_cbs_write_extradata
and ff_cbs_write_packet (to better describe existing behaviour and in
the latter case to also describe the new behaviour).

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.

Documentation

The offline documentation is available in the doc/ directory.

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

Examples
