Michael Niedermayer (HE12025-07-02): > People are asking for better error codes
I have little time just now, but I think it is important to clarify: - Error CODES are for when the program must react specifically to a certain kind of error condition: if (ret == AVERROR(EAGAIN)) … - Error MESSAGES are to say to the user what went wrong. There is a confusion because error codes also serve as stock error messages. I think what we need is better error messages and accompanying reporting. I have a lot of thoughts about this, I will comment when I have more time. (Spoiler: it depends on AVWriter.) I do not think we need better error codes.
