I could be wrong, but I was thinking that this way is more efficient,
because in the av_strdup case, the size of the needed allocation is  
already known, while I would suppose that av_asprintf() needs to 
allocate a larger size of memory because it cannot predict the eventual
size after applying all the formats. Am I on a wrong track?

At that point,  ff_format_io_close(oc, &oc->pb) has 
already been called.

Here's the full block (after the patch):


    ff_format_io_close(oc, &oc->pb);

    // Now rename the .tmp file to its actual name.
    if (seg->segment_write_temp) {
        char *final_filename = av_strndup(oc->url, strlen(oc->url) - 4);
        if (!final_filename)
            return AVERROR(ENOMEM);
        ret = ff_rename(oc->url, final_filename, s);
        av_free(final_filename);
    }

    return ret;

fail:
    ff_format_io_close(oc, &oc->pb);

    return ret;
}


Thanks,
