  GStreamer | gst-ffmpeg | Ver: git
           Summary: av_iformat_next and av_oformat_next compile errors using
                    FFmpeg v0.5 release and MSVC
           Product: GStreamer
           Version: git
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Windows
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: Normal
         Component: gst-ffmpeg
        AssignedTo: gstreamer-bugs at lists.sourceforge.net
        ReportedBy: dhoyt at llnl.gov
         QAContact: gstreamer-bugs at lists.sourceforge.net
     GNOME version: Unspecified
   GNOME milestone: Unspecified


Missing symbols "first_iformat" and "first_oformat" in FFmpeg-generated .lib
files for use with MSVC. The generated .lib files alias the external symbols
calling them "_first_iformat" and "_first_oformat" respectively.

This can be remedied using the FFmpeg API to get the intended values.

Instead of (gstffmpegdemux.c):

in_plugin = in_plugin->next;

Use:

in_plugin = av_iformat_next(NULL);


Instead of (gstffmpegmux.c):

in_plugin = first_oformat;

Use:

in_plugin = av_oformat_next(NULL);
