4. Could you add some exportable function to detect bits per sample for a given 
pixel format? As I understand it is impossible currently since field 
bits_per_coded_sample in AVCodecContext structure is not filled by some 
decoders.



I am by no means an expert in ffmpeg, but I don't think every sample has the same number of bits. You could, however, use something like

avpicture_get_size( pix_fmt , width, height) / (width * height)

to get the bits per pixel. Its kind of a hack, but I tried looking through the avpicture_get_size function, and apparently it just makes a dummy image and returns the size.
