This allows to copy information related to the stream ID from the demuxer
to the muxer, thus allowing for example to retain information related to
synchronous and asynchronous KLV data packets. This information is used
in the muxer when remuxing to distinguish the two kind of packets (if the
information is lacking, data packets are considered synchronous).
The fate reference changes are due to the use of
av_packet_merge_side_data(), which increases the size of the output
packet size, since side data is merged into the packet data.
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.
Note that this slightly changes behavior: it sets AVMEDIA_TYPE_UNKNOWN
if the codec type is unknown. This should be ok.

mpegts: Update the PSI/SI table only if the version change
Conflicts:
libavformat/mpegts.c
Merged-by: Michael Niedermayer <michaelni@gmx.at>
If a PAT is finished while a PMT section filter is opened but
not yet finished, the PMT section filter is closed and all
the received data is discarded.
This is usually not an issue but some multiplexers (With very
quick PAT/PMT repetition settings) consistently emit a PMT
section start, then a PAT, and then the rest of the PMT,
causing the aforementioned behavior to result in no PMT being
finished.
In the most pathologic situation the stream information are lost
and the probe fallback miscategorizes subtitles as mp3 audio.
Avoid the issue through eliminating redundant PSI/SI table
updates by checking their version field, which is required by
the standard to be incremented on every change no matter how
minor.
