So this is not a bug like I thought, but intentional, and all QP retrieval will be removed after the API bump. Just strange that the accessors have no attribute_deprecated. _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel
