Raw Blame History 

  1. Never assume the API of libav* to be stable unless at least 1 month has passed

  2. since the last major version increase.

  3. 

  4. The last version increases were:

  5. libavcodec:  2011-04-18

  6. libavdevice: 2011-04-18

  7. libavfilter: 2011-04-18

  8. libavformat: 2011-04-18

  9. libpostproc: 2011-04-18

  10. libswscale:  2011-06-20

  11. libavutil:   2011-04-18

  857.   new functions avcodec_decode_video2(), avcodec_decode_audio3() and

  858.   avcodec_decode_subtitle2(). These new functions take an AVPacket *pkt

  859.   argument instead of a const uint8_t *buf / int buf_size pair.

  860. 

  861. 2009-04-03 - r18321 - lavu 50.3.0 - av_fifo_space()

  869.   Convert the pixel formats PIX_FMT_ARGB, PIX_FMT_RGBA, PIX_FMT_ABGR,

  870.   PIX_FMT_BGRA, which were defined as macros, into enum PixelFormat values.

  871.   Conversely PIX_FMT_RGB32, PIX_FMT_RGB32_1, PIX_FMT_BGR32 and

  872.   PIX_FMT_BGR32_1 are now macros.

  873.   avcodec_get_pix_fmt() now recognizes the "rgb32" and "bgr32" aliases.

  874.   Re-sort the enum PixelFormat list accordingly.

  875.   This change breaks API/ABI backward compatibility.

  876.

  878.   Add the enum PixelFormat values:

  879.   PIX_FMT_RGB565BE, PIX_FMT_RGB565LE, PIX_FMT_RGB555BE, PIX_FMT_RGB555LE,

  880.   PIX_FMT_BGR565BE, PIX_FMT_BGR565LE, PIX_FMT_BGR555BE, PIX_FMT_BGR555LE.

  883.   The Mersenne Twister PRNG implemented through the av_random* functions

  884.   was removed. Use the lagged Fibonacci PRNG through the av_lfg* functions

  885.   instead.

  886. 

  887. 2009-03-08 - r17869 - lavu 50.0.0  - AVFifoBuffer

  888.   av_fifo_init, av_fifo_read, av_fifo_write and av_fifo_realloc were dropped

  889.   and replaced by av_fifo_alloc, av_fifo_generic_read, av_fifo_generic_write

  890.   and av_fifo_realloc2.

  891.   In addition, the order of the function arguments of av_fifo_generic_read

  892.   was changed to match av_fifo_generic_write.

  893.   The AVFifoBuffer/struct AVFifoBuffer may only be used in an opaque way by

  894.   applications, they may not use sizeof() or directly access members.

  895. 

  896. 2009-03-01 - r17682 - lavf 52.31.0 - Generic metadata API

  897.   Introduce a new metadata API (see av_metadata_get() and friends).
