Well, if I read the documentation of that function, it clearly says: https://www.ffmpeg.org/doxygen/2.7/group__lavc__core.html#ga11f785a188d7d9df71621001465b0f1d "The functions avcodec_find_decoder_by_name(), avcodec_find_encoder_by_name(), avcodec_find_decoder() and avcodec_find_encoder() provide an easy way for retrieving a codec." I know nothing more than that, sorry. :-) HTH, Moritz ___ ffmpeg-user mailing list ffmpeg-user@ffmpeg.org http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-user
