/* This module is Handbrake's interface to the ffmpeg decoder library
   (libavcodec & small parts of libavformat). It contains four Handbrake
   "work objects":

    decavcodec  connects HB to an ffmpeg audio decoder
    decavcodecv connects HB to an ffmpeg video decoder

        (Two different routines are needed because the ffmpeg library
        has different decoder calling conventions for audio & video.
        The audio decoder should have had its name changed to "decavcodeca"
        but I got lazy.) These work objects are self-contained & follow all
        of HB's conventions for a decoder module. They can be used like
        any other HB decoder (deca52, decmpeg2, etc.).

    decavcodecai "internal" (incestuous?) version of decavcodec
    decavcodecvi "internal" (incestuous?) version of decavcodecv

        These routine are functionally equivalent to the routines above but
        can only be used by the ffmpeg-based stream reader in libhb/stream.c.
        The reason they exist is because the ffmpeg library leaves some of
        the information needed by the decoder in the AVStream (the data
        structure used by the stream reader) and we need to retrieve it
        to successfully decode frames. But in HB the reader and decoder
        modules are in completely separate threads and nothing goes between
        them but hb_buffers containing frames to be decoded. I.e., there's
        no easy way for the ffmpeg stream reader to pass a pointer to its
        AVStream over to the ffmpeg video or audio decoder. So the *i work
        objects use a private back door to the stream reader to get access
        to the AVStream (routines hb_ffmpeg_avstream and hb_ffmpeg_context)
        and the codec_param passed to these work objects is the key to this
        back door (it's basically an index that allows the correct AVStream
        to be retrieved).

    The normal & *i objects share a lot of code (the basic frame decoding
    and bitstream info code is factored out into subroutines that can be
    called by either) but the top level routines of the *i objects
    (decavcodecviWork, decavcodecviInfo, etc.) are different because:
     1) they *have* to use the AVCodecContext that's contained in the
        reader's AVStream rather than just allocating & using their own,
     2) the Info routines have access to stuff kept in the AVStream in addition
        to stuff kept in the AVCodecContext. This shouldn't be necessary but
        crucial information like video frame rate that should be in the
        AVCodecContext is either missing or wrong in the version of ffmpeg
        we're currently using.

    A consequence of the above is that the non-i work objects *can't* use
    information from the AVStream because there isn't one - they get their
    data from either the dvd reader or the mpeg reader, not the ffmpeg stream
    reader. That means that they have to make up for deficiencies in the
    AVCodecContext info by using stuff kept in the HB "title" struct. It
    also means that ffmpeg codecs that randomly scatter state needed by
    the decoder across both the AVCodecContext & the AVStream (e.g., the
    VC1 decoder) can't easily be used by the HB mpeg stream reader.
