#define AV_DISPOSITION_ATTACHED_PIC   0x0400

The stream is stored in the file as an attached picture/"cover art" (e.g.

APIC frame in ID3v2). The single packet associated with it will be returned among the first few packets read from the file unless seeking takes place. It can also be accessed at any time in AVStream.attached_pic.

Typedef Documentation

typedef struct AVChapter AVChapter

Format I/O context.

New fields can be added to the end with minor version bumps. Removal, reordering and changes to existing fields require a major version bump. sizeof(AVFormatContext) must not be used outside libav*, use avformat_alloc_context() to create an AVFormatContext.

typedef struct AVFrac AVFrac

The exact value of the fractional number is: 'val + num / den'.

num is assumed to be 0 <= num < den.

typedef struct AVIndexEntry AVIndexEntry
typedef struct AVPacketList AVPacketList
typedef struct AVProbeData AVProbeData

This structure contains the data a format has to probe a file.

typedef struct AVProgram AVProgram

New fields can be added to the end with minor version bumps.

Removal, reordering and changes to existing fields require a major version bump. sizeof(AVProgram) must not be used outside libav*.

typedef struct AVStream AVStream

Stream structure.

New fields can be added to the end with minor version bumps. Removal, reordering and changes to existing fields require a major version bump. sizeof(AVStream) must not be used outside libav*.

Function Documentation

int av_append_packet ( AVIOContext s,
AVPacket pkt,
int  size 
)

Read data and append it to the current content of the AVPacket.

If pkt->size is 0 this is identical to av_get_packet. Note that this uses av_grow_packet and thus involves a realloc which is inefficient. Thus this function should only be used when there is no reasonable way to know (an upper bound of) the final size.

Parameters
pktpacket
sizeamount of data to read
Returns
>0 (read size) if OK, AVERROR_xxx otherwise, previous data will not be lost even if an error occurs.

int av_get_packet ( AVIOContext s,
AVPacket pkt,
int  size 
)

Allocate and read the payload of a packet and initialize its fields with default values.

Parameters
pktpacket
sizedesired payload size
Returns
>0 (read size) if OK, AVERROR_xxx otherwise
