 *
 * Bitstream filters transform encoded media data without decoding it. This
 * allows e.g. manipulating various header values. Bitstream filters operate on
 * @ref AVPacket "AVPackets".
 *
 * The bitstream filtering API is centered around two structures:
 * AVBitStreamFilter and AVBSFContext. The former represents a bitstream filter
 * in abstract, the latter a specific filtering process. Obtain an
 * AVBitStreamFilter using av_bsf_get_by_name() or av_bsf_iterate(), then pass
 * it to av_bsf_alloc() to create an AVBSFContext. Fill in the user-settable
 * AVBSFContext fields, as described in its documentation, then call
 * av_bsf_init() to prepare the filter context for use.
 *
 * Submit packets for filtering using av_bsf_send_packet(), obtain filtered
 * results with av_bsf_receive_packet(). When no more input packets will be
 * sent, submit a NULL AVPacket to signal the end of the stream to the filter.
 * av_bsf_receive_packet() will then return trailing packets, if any are
 * produced by the filter.
 *
 * Finally, free the filter context with av_bsf_free().
 * @{
