Kalev Lember b391fdbf1a lavc/libopenh264: Drop openh264 runtime version checks
With the way the runtime checks are currently set up, every single
openh264 release, no matter how minor, is considered an ABI break and
requires ffmpeg recompilation. This is unnecessarily strict because it
doesn't allow downstream distributions to ship any openh264 bug fix
version updates without breaking ffmpeg's openh264 support.

Years ago, at the time when ffmpeg's openh264 support was merged,
openh264 releases were done without a versioned soname (the library was
just libopenh264.so, unversioned). Since then, starting with version
1.3.0, openh264 has started using versioned sonames and the intent has
been to bump the soname every time there's a new release with an ABI
change.

This patch drops the exact version check and instead adds a minimum
requirement on 1.3.0 to the configure script.

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 means to alter decoded audio and video through a directed graph of connected 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.
