Support for this device has been removed in the Linux kernel since v2.6.37.
dv1394 has been superseded by libiec61883 which is functionally equivalent.

The libavformat API is not suitable for exporting output devices as muxers.
Some practical problems are e.g. lack of timing/synchronization mechanisms
or interaction with output-specific features.
This disables everything that was deprecated at least 18 months ago.
Readjust the minimum API version as needed, postponing any
API-incompatible changes until the next bump.

This moves work from the configure to the Make stage where it can
be parallelized and ensures that pkgconfig files are updated when
library versions change.
Bug-Id: 449
sigaction is not defined in standards as a struct starting with another
struct. Some *BSD variants do however, resulting in a warning from the
zero initialization, which this change eliminates.
This partially reverts a92be9b856.
Split version files into one line per symbol/directive to allow compatibility
with the Solaris linker without preprocessing and eliminate $ from version file
templates to simplify the postprocessing shell command.
Restore alphabetical order in lists, break overly long lines, do some
prettyprinting, add some explanatory section comments, group parts
together that belong together logically.
Currently, AVStream contains an embedded AVCodecContext instance, which
is used by demuxers to export stream parameters to the caller and by
muxers to receive stream parameters from the caller. It is also used
internally as the codec context that is passed to parsers.
In addition, it is also widely used by the callers as the decoding (when
demuxer) or encoding (when muxing) context, though this has been
officially discouraged since Libav 11.
There are multiple important problems with this approach:
- the fields in AVCodecContext are in general one of
* stream parameters
* codec options
* codec state
However, it's not clear which ones are which. It is consequently
unclear which fields are a demuxer allowed to set or a muxer allowed to
read. This leads to erratic behaviour depending on whether decoding or
encoding is being performed or not (and whether it uses the AVStream
embedded codec context).
- various synchronization issues arising from the fact that the same
context is used by several different APIs (muxers/demuxers,
parsers, bitstream filters and encoders/decoders) simultaneously, with
there being no clear rules for who can modify what and the different
processes being typically delayed with respect to each other.
- avformat_find_stream_info() making it necessary to support opening
and closing a single codec context multiple times, thus
complicating the semantics of freeing various allocated objects in the
codec context.
Those problems are resolved by replacing the AVStream embedded codec
context with a newly added AVCodecParameters instance, which stores only
the stream parameters exported by the demuxers or read by the muxers.
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.
