Have you ever used valgrind? Please just run the command below: valgrind --leak-check=full --log-file=out.log ffmpeg -hwaccel qsv -qsv_device /dev/dri/renderD128 -c:v h264_qsv -i a.h264 -c:v h264_qsv -b:v 2M -y out.h264
See line 3323 of ffmpeg.c, ret = avcodec_copy_context(ost->st->codec, ost->enc_ctx); and see what have been done in avcodec_copy_context: if (src->hw_frames_ctx) { dest->hw_frames_ctx = av_buffer_ref(src->hw_frames_ctx); if (!dest->hw_frames_ctx) goto fail; } However, that is not freed when calling avformat_free_context.
