Never assume the API of libav* to be stable unless at least 1 month has passed
since the last major version increase.

The last version increases were:
libavcodec:    2012-01-27
libavdevice:   2011-04-18
libavfilter:   2012-06-22
libavformat:   2012-01-27
libavresample: 2012-10-05
libswscale:    2011-06-20
libavutil:     2011-04-18


API changes, most recent first:

2012-10-18 - xxxxxxx - lavu 51.45.0 - error.h
  Add AVERROR_EXPERIMENTAL

2012-10-12 - xxxxxxx - lavu 51.44.0 - pixdesc.h
  Add functions for accessing pixel format descriptors.
  Accessing the av_pix_fmt_descriptors array directly is now
  deprecated.

2012-10-xx - xxxxxxx - lavu 51.43.0 - aes.h, md5.h, sha.h, tree.h
  Add functions for allocating the opaque contexts for the algorithms,
  deprecate the context size variables.

2012-10-xx - xxxxxxx - lavf 54.18.0 - avio.h
  Add avio_closep to complement avio_close.

2012-10-xx - xxxxxxx - lavu 51.42.0 - pixfmt.h
  Rename PixelFormat to AVPixelFormat and all PIX_FMT_* to AV_PIX_FMT_*.
  To provide backwards compatibility, PixelFormat is now #defined as
  AVPixelFormat.
  Note that this can break user code that includes pixfmt.h and uses the
  'PixelFormat' identifier. Such code should either #undef PixelFormat
  or stop using the PixelFormat name.

2012-10-05 - e7ba5b1 - lavr 1.0.0 - avresample.h
  Data planes parameters to avresample_convert() and
  avresample_read() are now uint8_t** instead of void**.
  Libavresample is now stable.

2012-09-24 - a42aada - lavc 54.28.0 - avcodec.h
  Add avcodec_free_frame(). This function must now
  be used for freeing an AVFrame.

2012-09-12 - 8919fee - lavu 51.41.0 - audioconvert.h
  Added AV_CH_LOW_FREQUENCY_2 channel mask value.

2012-09-04 - 686a329 - lavu 51.40.0 - opt.h

  major version. Use AV_PKT_FLAG_KEY instead.

2009-06-01 - f988ce6 - lavc 52.30.0 - av_lockmgr_register()
  av_lockmgr_register() can be used to register a callback function
  that lavc (and in the future, libraries that depend on lavc) can use
  to implement mutexes. The application should provide a callback function
  that implements the AV_LOCK_* operations described in avcodec.h.
  When the lock manager is registered, FFmpeg is guaranteed to behave
  correctly in a multi-threaded application.

2009-04-30 - ce1d9c8 - lavc 52.28.0 - av_free_packet()
  av_free_packet() is no longer an inline function. It is now exported.

  Please use NULL instead. This has been supported since r16506
  (lavf > 52.23.1, lavc > 52.10.0).

2009-04-07 - 7a00bba - lavc 52.23.0 - avcodec_decode_video/audio/subtitle
  The old decoding functions are deprecated, all new code should use the
  new functions avcodec_decode_video2(), avcodec_decode_audio3() and
  avcodec_decode_subtitle2(). These new functions take an AVPacket *pkt
  argument instead of a const uint8_t *buf / int buf_size pair.

2009-04-03 - 7b09db3 - lavu 50.3.0 - av_fifo_space()
  Introduce the av_fifo_space() function.

2009-04-02 - fabd246 - lavc 52.23.0 - AVPacket
  Move AVPacket declaration from libavformat/avformat.h to
  libavcodec/avcodec.h.

2009-03-22 - 6e08ca9 - lavu 50.2.0 - RGB32 pixel formats
  Convert the pixel formats PIX_FMT_ARGB, PIX_FMT_RGBA, PIX_FMT_ABGR,
  PIX_FMT_BGRA, which were defined as macros, into enum PixelFormat values.
  Conversely PIX_FMT_RGB32, PIX_FMT_RGB32_1, PIX_FMT_BGR32 and
  PIX_FMT_BGR32_1 are now macros.
  avcodec_get_pix_fmt() now recognizes the "rgb32" and "bgr32" aliases.
  Re-sort the enum PixelFormat list accordingly.
  This change breaks API/ABI backward compatibility.

2009-03-22 - f82674e - lavu 50.1.0 - PIX_FMT_RGB5X5 endian variants
  Add the enum PixelFormat values:
  PIX_FMT_RGB565BE, PIX_FMT_RGB565LE, PIX_FMT_RGB555BE, PIX_FMT_RGB555LE,
  PIX_FMT_BGR565BE, PIX_FMT_BGR565LE, PIX_FMT_BGR555BE, PIX_FMT_BGR555LE.

2009-03-21 - ee6624e - lavu 50.0.0  - av_random*

  was removed. Use the lagged Fibonacci PRNG through the av_lfg* functions
  instead.

2009-03-08 - 41dd680 - lavu 50.0.0  - AVFifoBuffer
  av_fifo_init, av_fifo_read, av_fifo_write and av_fifo_realloc were dropped
  and replaced by av_fifo_alloc, av_fifo_generic_read, av_fifo_generic_write
  and av_fifo_realloc2.
  In addition, the order of the function arguments of av_fifo_generic_read
  was changed to match av_fifo_generic_write.
  The AVFifoBuffer/struct AVFifoBuffer may only be used in an opaque way by
  applications, they may not use sizeof() or directly access members.

2009-03-01 - ec26457 - lavf 52.31.0 - Generic metadata API
  Introduce a new metadata API (see av_metadata_get() and friends).

    - AVFormatContext.copyright
    - AVFormatContext.comment
    - AVFormatContext.album
