Ffmpeg improvements

[tombh]

I've been playing with using hipitext to output video streams. First I needed to change some symbols to compile against newer versions of ffmpeg, namely v3.0.1. Then I also needed to add some crude substr detection for URIs rather than just file extensions.

BTW, hiptext is waaaaaaaaay better than mplayer's libcaca etc.

The compiler still throws some warnings about deprecated symbols. Can/should the Makefile pin to a specific version of ffmpeg?

Oh yes! Almost forgot. I first came across hiptext through rickrollrc! Happy days 😊

Sorry I didn't notice this until now! Don't be shy to ping me at [email protected] if I ever fall behind. I'll review this as soon as possible. Promise :)

No rush, but thanks :)

Needed this pull request to build against ffmpeg on latest arch build.

This doesn't compile on my system.

You probably want to put something like this at the top of the file.

#if LIBAVUTIL_VERSION_INT <= AV_VERSION_INT(52, 9, 0)
#define av_frame_alloc avcodec_alloc_frame
#endif

Ok I took a look finally. If we can maintain backwards compatibility with what I have installed on my system (Ubuntu 14.04) then I'm happy.

I'm so sorry, but when you get around to updating PR, you'll get a conflict rebasing this on master. I just migrated the project to GNU autotools. (That included moving movie.cc -> src/movie.cc.) This might actually help you deal with the breaking change in ffmpeg in a more proper manner. Maybe someone defined m4 macros for dealing with this.

Is this update ok? I couldn't find an m4 macro, but it wasn't hard
just doing it with C macros. There's still 2 deprecations warnings,
but they are for functions that also need new args as well as
renaming. But like I say they're just warnings for the moment.
