Usually a HW decoder is expected when user specifies a HW acceleration
method via -hwaccel option, however the current implementation doesn't
take HW acceleration method into account, it is possible to select a SW
decoder.
For example:
$ ffmpeg -hwaccel vaapi -i av1.mp4 -f null -
$ ffmpeg -hwaccel nvdec -i av1.mp4 -f null -
$ ffmpeg -hwaccel vdpau -i av1.mp4 -f null -
[...]
Stream #0:0 -> #0:0 (av1 (libdav1d) -> wrapped_avframe (native))
libdav1d is selected in this case even if vaapi, nvdec or vdpau is
specified.
After applying this patch, the native av1 decoder (with vaapi, nvdec or
vdpau support) is selected for decoding(libdav1d is still used for
probing format).
$ ffmpeg -hwaccel vaapi -i av1.mp4 -f null -
$ ffmpeg -hwaccel nvdec -i av1.mp4 -f null -
$ ffmpeg -hwaccel vdpau -i av1.mp4 -f null -
[...]
Stream #0:0 -> #0:0 (av1 (native) -> wrapped_avframe (native))

After applying this patch, the desired HW acceleration method is known
before selecting decoder, so we may take HW acceleration method into
account when selecting decoder for input stream in the next commit
There should be no functional changes in this patch

The streamcopy initialization code briefly needs an AVCodecContext to
apply AVOptions to. Allocate a temporary codec context, do not use the
encoding one.
Using tail calls with functions returning void is forbidden
(C99/C11 6.8.6.4: "A return statement with an expression shall not appear
in a function whose return type is void.") GCC emits a warning
because of this when using -pedantic: "ISO C forbids ‘return’ with
expression, in function returning void"

It retrieves the muxer's internal timestamp with under-defined
semantics. Continuing to use this value would also require
synchronization once the muxer is moved to a separate thread.
Replace the value with last_mux_dts.
This field means different things when the video is encoded (number of
frames emitted to the encoding sync queue/encoder by the video sync
code) or copied (number of packets sent to the muxer sync queue).
Print the value of packets_written instead, which means the same thing
in both cases. It is also more accurate, since packets may be dropped by
the sync queue or bitstream filters.
Same issues apply to it as to -shortest.
Changes the results of the following tests:
- matroska-flac-extradata-update
The test reencodes two input FLAC streams into three output FLAC
streams. The last output stream is limited to 8 frames. The current
code results in the first two output streams having 12 frames, after
this commit all three streams have 8 frames and are the same length.
This new result is better, since it is predictable.
- mkv-1242
The test streamcopies one video and one audio stream, video is limited
to 11 frames. The new result shortens the audio stream so that it is
not longer than the video.
The -shortest option (which finishes the output file at the time the
shortest stream ends) is currently implemented by faking the -t option
when an output stream ends. This approach is fragile, since it depends
on the frames/packets being processed in a specific order. E.g. there
are currently some situations in which the output file length will
depend unpredictably on unrelated factors like encoder delay. More
importantly, the present work aiming at splitting various ffmpeg
components into different threads will make this approach completely
unworkable, since the frames/packets will arrive in effectively random
order.
This commit introduces a "sync queue", which is essentially a collection
of FIFOs, one per stream. Frames/packets are submitted to these FIFOs
and are then released for further processing (encoding or muxing) when
it is ensured that the frame in question will not cause its stream to
get ahead of the other streams (the logic is similar to libavformat's
interleaving queue).
These sync queues are then used for encoding and/or muxing when the
-shortest option is specified.
A new option – -shortest_buf_duration – controls the maximum number of
queued packets, to avoid runaway memory usage.
This commit changes the results of the following tests:
- copy-shortest[12]: the last audio frame is now gone. This is
correct, since it actually outlasts the last video frame.
- shortest-sub: the video packets following the last subtitle packet are
now gone. This is also correct.
The following commits will add a new buffering stage after bitstream
filters, which should not be taken into account for choosing next
output.
OutputStream.last_mux_dts is also used by the muxing code to make up
missing DTS values - that field is now moved to the muxer-private
MuxStream object.
