/**
* Initialize libavcodec.
* If called more than once, does nothing.
*
* @warning This function must be called before any other libavcodec
* function.
*
* @warning This function is not thread-safe.
*/
void avcodec_init(void);
// 初始化libavcodec,一般最先调用该函数
// 引入头文件： #include "libavcodec/avcodec.h"
// 实现在: \ffmpeg\libavcodec\utils.c
// 该函数必须在调用libavcodec里的其它函数前调用,一般在程序启动或模块初始化时调用,如果你调用了多次也无所谓,因为后面的调用不会做任何事情.从函数的实现里你可以发现,代码中对多次调用进行了控制.
// 该函数是非线程安全的
2 av_register_all()
/**
* Initialize libavformat and register all the muxers, demuxers and
* protocols. If you do not call this function, then you can select
* exactly which formats you want to support.
*
* @see av_register_input_format()
* @see av_register_output_format()
* @see av_register_protocol()
*/
void av_register_all(void);
// 初始化 libavformat和注册所有的muxers、demuxers和protocols，
// 一般在调用avcodec_init后调用该方法
// 引入头文件：#include "libavformat/avformat.h"
// 实现在:\ffmpeg\libavformat\allformats.c
// 其中会调用avcodec_register_all()注册多种音视频格式的编解码器,并注册各种文件的编解复用器
// 当然，你也可以不调用该函数，而通过选择调用特定的方法来提供支持
3 avformat_alloc_context()
/**
* Allocate an AVFormatContext.
* avformat_free_context() can be used to free the context and everything
* allocated by the framework within it.
*/
AVFormatContext *avformat_alloc_context(void);
// 分配一个AVFormatContext结构
// 引入头文件：#include "libavformat/avformat.h"
// 实现在:\ffmpeg\libavformat\options.c
// 其中负责申请一个AVFormatContext结构的内存,并进行简单初始化
// avformat_free_context()可以用来释放该结构里的所有东西以及该结构本身
// 也是就说使用 avformat_alloc_context()分配的结构,需要使用avformat_free_context()来释放
// 有些版本中函数名可能为: av_alloc_format_context();
4 avformat_free_context()
/**
* Free an AVFormatContext and all its streams.
* @param s context to free
*/
void avformat_free_context(AVFormatContext *s);
// 释放一个AVFormatContext结构
// 引入头文件：#include "libavformat/avformat.h"
// 实现在:\ffmpeg\libavformat\utils.c
// 使用 avformat_alloc_context()分配的结构,采用该函数进行释放,除释放AVFormatContext结构本身内存之外,AVFormatContext中指针所指向的内存也会一并释放
// 有些版本中函数名猜测可能为: av_free_format_context();
5 AVFormatContext 结构
/**
* Format I/O context.
* New fields can be added to the end with minor version bumps.
* Removal, reordering and changes to existing fields require a major
* version bump.
* sizeof(AVFormatContext) must not be used outside libav*.

} AVFormatContext;
// AVFormatContext在FFMpeg里是一个非常重要的的结构，是其它输入、输出相关信息的一个容器
// 引入头文件：#include "libavformat/avformat.h"
// 以上只列出了其中的部分成员
// 作为输入容器时 struct AVInputFormat *iformat; 不能为空, 其中包含了输入文件的音视频流信息,程序从输入容器从读出音视频包进行解码处理
// 作为输出容器时 struct AVOutputFormat *oformat; 不能为空, 程序把编码好的音视频包写入到输出容器中
// AVIOContext *pb: I/O上下文,通过对该变量赋值可以改变输入源或输出目的
// unsigned int nb_streams; 音视频流数量
// AVStream **streams; 音视频流
6 AVIOContext 结构
/**
* Bytestream IO Context.
* New fields can be added to the end with minor version bumps.
* Removal, reordering and changes to existing fields require a major
* version bump.
* sizeof(AVIOContext) must not be used outside libav*.
*
* @note None of the function pointers in AVIOContext should be called
* directly, they should only be set by the client application
* when implementing custom I/O. Normally these are set to the
* function pointers specified in avio_alloc_context()

// 在结构的尾部增加变量可以减少版本冲突
// 移除、排序和修改已经存在的变量将会导致较大的版本冲突

// AVIOContext里的函数指针不能直接调用,通常使用avio_alloc_context()函数来设置其中的函数指针
// unsigned char *buffer: 缓存的起始指针

7 avio_alloc_context()
/**

* @param buffer Memory block for input/output operations via AVIOContext.
* The buffer must be allocated with av_malloc() and friends.
* @param buffer_size The buffer size is very important for performance.
* For protocols with fixed blocksize it should be set to this blocksize.
* For others a typical size is a cache page, e.g. 4kb.
* @param write_flag Set to 1 if the buffer should be writable, 0 otherwise.
* @param opaque An opaque pointer to user-specific data.
* @param read_packet A function for refilling the buffer, may be NULL.
* @param write_packet A function for writing the buffer contents, may be NULL.
* @param seek A function for seeking to specified byte position, may be NULL.

8 av_open_input_file()

// 引入头文件：#include "libavformat/avformat.h"
// 也就是把媒体文件中的音视频流等信息读出来,保存在容器中,以便解码时使用
// 返回>=0时成功,否则失败
