These variables are coming from mpegvideoenc where are supposedly used

unclear as they lack documentation, are available only from a very small
subset of encoders, and they are hardly used in the wild. Also frame_bits
in aacenc is employed in a similar way.

avcodec: Define side data type for fallback track
Merged-by: Derek Buitenhuis <derek.buitenhuis@gmail.com>
This function returns the encoded data of a frame, one slice at a time
directly when that slice is encoded, instead of waiting for the full
frame to be done. However this field has a debatable usefulness, since
it looks like it is just a convoluted way to get data at lowest
possible latency, or a somewhat hacky way to store h263 in RFC-2190
rtp encapsulation.
Moreover when multi-threading is enabled (which is by default) the order
of returned slices is not deterministic at all, making the use of this
function not reliable at all (or at the very least, more complicated
than it should be).
So, for the reasons stated above, and being used by only a single encoder
family (mpegvideo), this field is deemed unnecessary, overcomplicated,
and not really belonging to libavcodec. Libavformat features a complete
implementation of RFC-2190, for any other case.

Deprecation flag on AVPicture struct replaced by a comment, as it causes
excess deprecation warnings for every include of avcodec.h
Merged-by: Hendrik Leppkes <h.leppkes@gmail.com>
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.
Signed-off-by: Vittorio Giovara <vittorio.giovara@gmail.com>
Use the new fields directly instead of the ones from AVPicture.
This removes a layer of indirection which serves no pratical purpose
whatsoever, and will help in removing AVPicture structure completely
later.
Every subtitle encoder/decoder seamlessly points to the new arrays,

This commit shall introduce the first step of adding support for the
Daala next generation video codec to FFmpeg. Although still in
development, the codec is showing good progress and exchanging work
through IETF drafts. The companies behind Daala are also participating
in the Alliance for Open Media, so it's likely that whatever the result
any of these collaborations produce it's probable that elements from
Daala could be used in them, or perhaps this codec itself could be the
result.
It was merged with the iff_ilbm decoder in commit
929a24efff.

The rationale is that coded_frame was only used to communicate key_frame,
pict_type and quality to the caller, as well as a few other random fields,
in a non predictable, let alone consistent way.
There was agreement that there was no use case for coded_frame, as it is
a full-sized AVFrame container used for just 2-3 int-sized properties,
which shouldn't even belong into the AVCodecContext in the first place.
The appropriate AVPacket flag can be used instead of key_frame, while
quality is exported with the new AVPacketSideData quality factor.
There is no replacement for the other fields as they were unreliable,
mishandled or just not used at all.

When decoding, this field holds the inverse of the framerate that can be
written in the headers for some codecs. Using a field called 'time_base'
for this is very misleading, as there are no timestamps associated with
it. Furthermore, this field is used for a very different purpose during
encoding.
Add a new field, called 'framerate', to replace the use of time_base for
decoding.
Decoding acceleration may work even if the codec level is higher than
the stated limit of the VDPAU driver. Or the problem may be considered
acceptable by the user. This flag allows skipping the codec level
capability checks and proceed with decoding.
Applications should obviously not set this flag by default, but only if
the user explicitly requested this behavior (and presumably knows how
to turn it back off if it fails).

Currently, the amount of padding inserted at the beginning by some audio
encoders, is exported through AVCodecContext.delay. However
- the term 'delay' is heavily overloaded and can have multiple different
meanings even in the case of audio encoding.
- this field has entirely different meanings, depending on whether the
codec context is used for encoding or decoding (and has yet another
different meaning for video), preventing generic handling of the codec
context.
Therefore, add a new field -- AVCodecContext.initial_padding. It could
conceivably be used for decoding as well at a later point.

The reasoning behind this addition is that various third party
applications are interested in getting some motion information out of a

It was considered to export other information as well (such as the intra
information about the block, or the quantization) but the structure
might have ended up into a half full-generic, half full of codec
specific cruft. If more information is necessary, it should either be
added in the "flags" field of the AVMotionVector structure, or in
another side-data.
This commit also includes an example exporting them in a CSV stream.
