The _only_ reason the side data is opqaue is because side data can't contain pointers, which again is because side data must be a flat byte array for legacy reasons. (Yes, we should change this, but probably can't now.) So I think all what you've been writing can be reduced to: should this really be side data, or would it be better to just make it a new AVStream field. _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel
