- 结构体定义
- 操作函数
- 支持的AVOutputFormat
通过上面的分析，基本可以看到ffmpeg的套路了，首先一个context上下文，上下文里面一个priv_data 指针，然后再插件结构体中有一个priv_data_size，然后回调函数。
结构体定义
首先肯定是AVFormatContext，这个就是上下文，这个结构体太庞大了。特别要注意里面的AVIOContext，这两个回调可以从自己的内存中读取数据。另外还有一个AVStream的结构体，专门用来存储流。
/**
* 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*, use
* avformat_alloc_context() to create an AVFormatContext.
*
* Fields can be accessed through AVOptions (av_opt*),
* the name string used matches the associated command line parameter name and
* can be found in libavformat/options_table.h.
* The AVOption/command line parameter names differ in some cases from the C
* structure field names for historic reasons or brevity.

其实想要说明的一些函数是下面的，这些函数可以用来控制输入流的播放，暂停，跳转，等，特别是在rtsp等流媒体服务器上，非常有用。

* omit invalid data between valid frames so as to give the decoder the maximum
* information possible for decoding.
*
* On success, the returned packet is reference-counted (pkt->buf is set) and
* valid indefinitely. The packet must be freed with av_packet_unref() when
* it is no longer needed. For video, the packet contains exactly one frame.
* For audio, it contains an integer number of frames if each frame has
* a known fixed size (e.g. PCM or ADPCM data). If the audio frames have

* values in AVStream.time_base units (and guessed if the format cannot
