It is badly named (should have been -top_field_first, or at least -tff),
underdocumented and underspecified, and (most importantly) entirely
redundant with the setfield filter.
This option adds a long string of numbers to the progress line, where
i-th number contains the base-2 logarithm of the number of times a frame
with this QP value was seen by print_report().
There are multiple problems with this feature:
* despite this existing since 2005, web search shows no indication
that it was ever useful for any meaningful purpose;
* the format of what is printed is entirely undocumented, one has to
find it out from the source code;
* QP values above 31 are silently ignored;
* it only works with one video stream;
* as it relies on global state, it is in conflict with ongoing
architectural changes.
It then seems that the nontrivial cost of maintaining this option is not
worth its negligible (or possibly negative - since it pollutes the
already large option space) value.
Users who really need similar functionality can also implement it
themselves using -vstats.
Analogous to -enc_stats*, but happens right before muxing. Useful
because bitstream filters and the sync queue can modify packets after
encoding and before muxing. Also has access to the muxing timebase.
Since at least 4.4.3, -ab/-b:a help text was in the video section
of ffmpeg -h, but these are audio options.

Splits the currently handled subtitle at random access point
packets that can be configured to follow a specific output stream.
Currently only subtitle streams which are directly mapped into the
same output in which the heartbeat stream resides are affected.
This way the subtitle - which is known to be shown at this time
can be split and passed to muxer before its full duration is
yet known. This is also a drawback, as this essentially outputs
multiple subtitles from a single input subtitle that continues
over multiple random access points. Thus this feature should not
be utilized in cases where subtitle output latency does not matter.

Replace it with an array of streams in each InputFile. This is a more
accurate reflection of the actual relationship between InputStream and
InputFile.
Analogous to what was previously done to output streams in
7ef7a22251.
The current adjustment of input start times just adjusts the tsoffset.
And it does so, by resetting the tsoffset to nullify the new start time.
This leads to breakage of -copyts, ignoring of input_ts_offset, breaking
of -isync as well as breaking wrap correction.
Fixed by taking cognizance of these parameters, and by correcting start times
just before sync offsets are applied.
This is similar to what was done before for output files and will allow
introducing demuxer-private state in future commits
Unlike for muxing, the code is moved to existing ffmpeg_demux.c rather
than to a new file. The reason is just file size - the demuxing code is
much smaller than muxing.
This enables overriding the rotation as well as horizontal/vertical
flip state of a specific video stream on the input side.
Additionally, switch the singular test that was utilizing the rotation
metadata to instead override the input display rotation, thus leading
to the same result.
ffmpeg_opt.c currently contains code for
- parsing the options provided on the command line
- opening and initializing input files based on these options
- opening and initializing output files based on these options
The code dealing with each of these is for the most part disjoint, so it
makes sense to move them to separate files. Beyond reducing the quite
considerable size of ffmpeg_opt.c, this will also allow exposing muxer
internals (currently private to ffmpeg_mux.c) to the initialization
code, thus removing the awkward separation currently in place.
This simplifies the code as there is no other place the error buffer
is needed, so the av_err2str helper macro can be used.

Currently it would essentially change the find_stream_info setting for
the file it was specified for and all following files, which is unusual
and somewhat unexpected behaviour for a per-file option and not even
documented to behave like this.

It has been deprecated in favor of the aresample filter for almost 10
years.
Another thing this option can do is drop audio timestamps and have them
generated by the encoding code or the muxer, but
- for encoding, this can already be done with the setpts filter
- for muxing this should almost never be done as timestamp generation by
the muxer is deprecated, but people who really want to do this can use
the setts bitstream filter
It is either equal to OutputStream.enc_ctx->codec, or NULL when enc_ctx
is NULL. Replace the use of enc with enc_ctx->codec, or the equivalent
enc_ctx->codec_* fields where more convenient.
Don't silently replace it with the default layout for the amount of channels
from the requested layout.
Should fix ticket #9869

Use it instead of AVStream.codecpar in the main thread. While
AVStream.codecpar is documented to only be updated when the stream is
added or avformat_find_stream_info(), it is actually updated during
demuxing. Accessing it from a different thread then constitutes a race.
Ideally, some mechanism should eventually be provided for signalling
parameter updates to the user. Then the demuxing thread could pick up
the changes and propagate them to the decoder.
