I (new contributor) have been making a push to get avdevice/dshow to where
it is great to use programmatically (see recent patches, more coming). One
thing on my list is to be able to through the API query the capabilities of
my device, as right now I'd have to ask users to run a command like ffmpeg
-list_options true -f dshow -i video="Camera" to get that info and manually
enter it into my program, let alone that I am unable to make a nicer GUI. I
see that this capability has just been deprecated. Instead of waiting for a
new avdevice interface that may or may not come (I personally like that they
are just formats like anything else, super easy to use), would it be
possible to undeprecate when I provide an implementation of
create_device_capabilities for the dshow avdevice?

Thanks!

Subject: [FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] avdevice/avdevice: Deprecate AVDevice
Capabilities API

It has been added in 6db42a2b6b22e6f1928fafcf3faa67ed78201004,
yet since then none of the necessary create/free_device_capabilities
functions has been implemented, making this API completely useless.

Because of this one can already simplify avdevice_capabilities_free/create
and can already remove the function pointers at the next major bump.
