266  Deprecate AVFormatContext filename field which had limited length, use the

293  with Libav, it remained unmaintained by the FFmpeg project and duplicated
294  functionality provided by libswresample.
295
296  In order to improve consistency and reduce attack surface, it has been deprecated.
297  Users of this library are asked to migrate to libswresample, which, as well as
298  providing more functionality, is faster and has higher accuracy.

3002017-12-26 - a04c2c707d - lavc 58.9.100 - avcodec.h
301  Deprecate av_lockmgr_register(). You need to build FFmpeg with threading

358  Deprecate AVCodecContext.refcounted_frames. This was useful for deprecated
359  API only (avcodec_decode_video2/avcodec_decode_audio4). The new decode APIs

361  counted frames.

400  DXVA2 and D3D11 hardware accelerated decoding now supports the new hwaccel API,
401  which can create the decoder context and allocate hardware frame automatically.

435  is handled by libavcodec or the caller.
436
4372017-05-08 - a47bd5d77e - lavu 55.62.100 / 55.30.0 - frame.h
438  Add AVFrame.crop_left/right/top/bottom fields for attaching cropping

446  The cuvid decoders now support AVCodecContext.hw_device_ctx, which removes
447  the requirement to set an incomplete AVCodecContext.hw_frames_ctx only to
448  set the Cuda device handle.
449
4502017-04-11 - 8378466507 - lavu 55.61.100 - avstring.h

458  and av_content_light_metadata_create_side_data() API, and AVContentLightMetadata
459  type to export content light level video properties.
460

474  Deprecate that demuxers export the stream rotation angle in AVStream.metadata
475  (via an entry named "rotate"). Use av_stream_get_side_data() with
476  AV_PKT_DATA_DISPLAYMATRIX instead, and read the rotation angle with
477  av_display_rotation_get(). The same is done for muxing. Instead of adding a
478  "rotate" entry to AVStream.metadata, AV_PKT_DATA_DISPLAYMATRIX side data has
479  to be added to the AVStream.
480
4812017-03-23 - 7e4ba776a2 - lavc 57.85.101 - avcodec.h

494  Deprecate AVFMT_FLAG_KEEP_SIDE_DATA. It will be ignored after the next major

512  bound_bottom, padding) to AVSphericalMapping.
513
5142017-03-02 - ade7c1a232 - lavc 57.81.104 - videotoolbox.h
515  AVVideotoolboxContext.cv_pix_fmt_type can now be set to 0 to output the
516  native decoder format. (The default value is not changed.)
517

584  Decoders now export the frame timestamp as AVFrame.pts. It was
585  previously exported as AVFrame.pkt_pts, which is now deprecated.
586
587  Note: When decoding, AVFrame.pts uses the stream/packet timebase,
588  and not the codec timebase.

638  Fix accidental ABI breakage in AVFilterContext.
639  ABI was broken in 8688d3a, lavfi 6.42.100 and released as ffmpeg 3.1.
640
641  Because of this, ffmpeg and ffplay built against lavfi>=6.42.100 will not be
642  compatible with lavfi>=6.47.100. Potentially also affects other users of
643  libavfilter if they are using one of the affected fields.

694
6952016-03-11 - 6d8ab35 - lavf/lavc 57.28.101
696  Add requirement to bitstream filtering API that returned packets with
697  size == 0 and side_data_elems == 0 are to be skipped by the caller.
698
6992016-03-04 - 9362973 - lavf 57.28.100
700  Add protocol blacklisting API
701
7022016-02-28 - 4dd4d53 - lavc 57.27.101
703  Validate AVFrame returned by get_buffer2 to have required
704  planes not NULL and unused planes set to NULL as crashes
705  and buffer overflow are possible with certain streams if
706  that is not the case.
707
7082016-02-26 - 30e7685 - lavc 57.27.100 - avcodec.h
709  "flags2" decoding option now allows the flag "ass_ro_flush_noop" preventing
710  the reset of the ASS ReadOrder field on flush. This affects the content of
711  AVSubtitles.rects[N]->ass when "sub_text_format" is set to "ass" (see
712  previous entry).
713
7142016-02-26 - 2941282 - lavc 57.26.100 - avcodec.h
715  Add a "sub_text_format" subtitles decoding option allowing the values "ass"
716  (recommended) and "ass_with_timings" (not recommended, deprecated, default).
717  The default value for this option will change to "ass" at the next major
718  libavcodec version bump.
719
720  The current default is "ass_with_timings" for compatibility. This means that
721  all subtitles text decoders currently still output ASS with timings printed
722  as strings in the AVSubtitles.rects[N]->ass fields.
723
724  Setting "sub_text_format" to "ass" allows a better timing accuracy (ASS
725  timing is limited to a 1/100 time base, so this is relevant for any subtitles
726  format needing a bigger one), ease timing adjustments, and prevents the need
727  of removing the timing from the decoded string yourself. This form is also
728  known as "the Matroska form". The timing information (start time, duration)
729  can be found in the AVSubtitles fields.

3133
31342009-11-25 - 86a60fa - lavfi 1.9.0 - avfilter_register()
3135  Change the signature of avfilter_register() to make it return an

3164  Add a pts field to AVSubtitle which gives the subtitle packet pts
3165  in AV_TIME_BASE. Some subtitle de-/encoders (e.g. XSUB) will

3167
31682009-06-03 - 8f3f2e0 - lavc 52.30.2 - AV_PKT_FLAG_KEY
3169  PKT_FLAG_KEY has been deprecated and will be dropped at the next

31722009-06-01 - f988ce6 - lavc 52.30.0 - av_lockmgr_register()
3173  av_lockmgr_register() can be used to register a callback function
3174  that lavc (and in the future, libraries that depend on lavc) can use
3175  to implement mutexes. The application should provide a callback function
3176  that implements the AV_LOCK_* operations described in avcodec.h.
3177  When the lock manager is registered, FFmpeg is guaranteed to behave
3178  correctly in a multi-threaded application.
3179
31802009-04-30 - ce1d9c8 - lavc 52.28.0 - av_free_packet()
3181  av_free_packet() is no longer an inline function. It is now exported.
3182
31832009-04-11 - 80d403f - lavc 52.25.0 - deprecate av_destruct_packet_nofree()
3184  Please use NULL instead. This has been supported since r16506
3185  (lavf > 52.23.1, lavc > 52.10.0).
3186
31872009-04-07 - 7a00bba - lavc 52.23.0 - avcodec_decode_video/audio/subtitle
3188  The old decoding functions are deprecated, all new code should use the
3189  new functions avcodec_decode_video2(), avcodec_decode_audio3() and
3190  avcodec_decode_subtitle2(). These new functions take an AVPacket *pkt
3191  argument instead of a const uint8_t *buf / int buf_size pair.
3192
31932009-04-03 - 7b09db3 - lavu 50.3.0 - av_fifo_space()
3194  Introduce the av_fifo_space() function.

3198  libavcodec/avcodec.h.
3199
32002009-03-22 - 6e08ca9 - lavu 50.2.0 - RGB32 pixel formats
3201  Convert the pixel formats PIX_FMT_ARGB, PIX_FMT_RGBA, PIX_FMT_ABGR,
3202  PIX_FMT_BGRA, which were defined as macros, into enum PixelFormat values.
3203  Conversely PIX_FMT_RGB32, PIX_FMT_RGB32_1, PIX_FMT_BGR32 and
3204  PIX_FMT_BGR32_1 are now macros.
3205  avcodec_get_pix_fmt() now recognizes the "rgb32" and "bgr32" aliases.
3206  Re-sort the enum PixelFormat list accordingly.
3207  This change breaks API/ABI backward compatibility.
3208
32092009-03-22 - f82674e - lavu 50.1.0 - PIX_FMT_RGB5X5 endian variants
3210  Add the enum PixelFormat values:
3211  PIX_FMT_RGB565BE, PIX_FMT_RGB565LE, PIX_FMT_RGB555BE, PIX_FMT_RGB555LE,
3212  PIX_FMT_BGR565BE, PIX_FMT_BGR565LE, PIX_FMT_BGR555BE, PIX_FMT_BGR555LE.
3213
32142009-03-21 - ee6624e - lavu 50.0.0  - av_random*
3215  The Mersenne Twister PRNG implemented through the av_random* functions
3216  was removed. Use the lagged Fibonacci PRNG through the av_lfg* functions
3217  instead.
3218
32192009-03-08 - 41dd680 - lavu 50.0.0  - AVFifoBuffer
3220  av_fifo_init, av_fifo_read, av_fifo_write and av_fifo_realloc were dropped
3221  and replaced by av_fifo_alloc, av_fifo_generic_read, av_fifo_generic_write
3222  and av_fifo_realloc2.
3223  In addition, the order of the function arguments of av_fifo_generic_read
3224  was changed to match av_fifo_generic_write.
3225  The AVFifoBuffer/struct AVFifoBuffer may only be used in an opaque way by
3226  applications, they may not use sizeof() or directly access members.
3227
32282009-03-01 - ec26457 - lavf 52.31.0 - Generic metadata API
3229  Introduce a new metadata API (see av_metadata_get() and friends).
3230  The old API is now deprecated and should not be used anymore. This especially
3231  includes the following structure fields:
3232    - AVFormatContext.title
3233    - AVFormatContext.author
3234    - AVFormatContext.copyright
3235    - AVFormatContext.comment
3236    - AVFormatContext.album
3237    - AVFormatContext.year
3238    - AVFormatContext.track
3239    - AVFormatContext.genre
3240    - AVStream.language
3241    - AVStream.filename
3242    - AVProgram.provider_name
3243    - AVProgram.name
3244    - AVChapter.title
3245
