This list is mainly useful to be directly used as a parameter by the
audio sink buffer, when there is no need to force a specific channel
layout.
The list of formats is generated programmatically, and avoids channel
layouts not supported by libavfilter (with more than 8 channels).
We preferred to avoid compile-time generation in order to avoid some
unnecessary complexity (build hacks, generating code maintainance
etc.).
A more compact way to express this list through the use of macros
should be possible when libavfilter will support more than 8 channels,
as there will be no need to filter out channel layouts with more than
8 channels.

Subject: [FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] lavfi: add ff_all_channel_layouts internal symbol
Date: Sat, 20 Aug 2011 15:33:16 +0200
A function name should tell what the function does rather than what
the function returns. This also avoids possible conflicts
(e.g. between a function and a public list of all supported formats),
and clarifies the code.
Breaks audio API/ABI, add a backward compatibility layer for video
API/ABI.

The fields "Number of Bytes" and "Number of Frames" are mixed up. "Bytes"
come first, "Frames" behind.

SSE-optimized hScale() scales up to 4 pixels at once, so we need to
allocate up to 3 padding pixels to prevent overreads. This fixes
valgrind errors in various swscale-tests on fate.

Check for invalid VLC value in smacker decoder.
Check and propagate errors when VLC trees cannot be built in smacker decoder.
