Comment #5 on issue 21318 by alex.converse: Query FFmpeg libraries for  
codec support
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=21318

The only official way to do this is with avcodec_find_decoder_by_name() and  
av_find_input_format(). They only need to be fed static strings not, data  
from the internet. If you do decide to go with a symbol matching approach,  
it should be noted that only symbols
prefixed with "av" are considered public API.

If you absolutely can't do it that way, I would recommend symbols like  
aac_decoder and mov_demuxer but this may break in future
FFmpeg revisions. Probing symbols like aac_decoder and mov_demuxer might be  
ok for practical purposes but somebody might come along
and rename mov_demuxer to isom_demuxer and that wouldn't be considered a  
break.
