/**
 * @defgroup lswr Libswresample
 * @{
 *
 * Libswresample (lswr) is a library that handles audio resampling, sample
 * format conversion and mixing.
 *
 * Interaction with lswr is done through SwrContext, which is
 * allocated with swr_alloc() or swr_alloc_set_opts(). It is opaque, so all parameters
 * must be set with the @ref avoptions API.
 *
 * The first thing you will need to do in order to use lswr is to allocate
 * SwrContext. This can be done with swr_alloc() or swr_alloc_set_opts(). If you
 * are using the former, you must set options through the @ref avoptions API.
 * The latter function provides the same feature, but it allows you to set some
 * common options in the same statement.
 *
 * For example the following code will setup conversion from planar float sample
 * format to interleaved signed 16-bit integer, downsampling from 48kHz to
 * 44.1kHz and downmixing from 5.1 channels to stereo (using the default mixing
 * matrix). This is using the swr_alloc() function.
 * @code
 * SwrContext *swr = swr_alloc();
 * av_opt_set_channel_layout(swr, "in_channel_layout",  AV_CH_LAYOUT_5POINT1, 0);
 * av_opt_set_channel_layout(swr, "out_channel_layout", AV_CH_LAYOUT_STEREO,  0);
 * av_opt_set_int(swr, "in_sample_rate",     48000,                0);
 * av_opt_set_int(swr, "out_sample_rate",    44100,                0);
 * av_opt_set_sample_fmt(swr, "in_sample_fmt",  AV_SAMPLE_FMT_FLTP, 0);
 * av_opt_set_sample_fmt(swr, "out_sample_fmt", AV_SAMPLE_FMT_S16,  0);
 * @endcode
 *
 * The same job can be done using swr_alloc_set_opts() as well:
 * @code
 * SwrContext *swr = swr_alloc_set_opts(NULL,  // we're allocating a new context
 *                       AV_CH_LAYOUT_STEREO,  // out_ch_layout
 *                       AV_SAMPLE_FMT_S16,    // out_sample_fmt
 *                       44100,                // out_sample_rate
 *                       AV_CH_LAYOUT_5POINT1, // in_ch_layout
 *                       AV_SAMPLE_FMT_FLTP,   // in_sample_fmt
 *                       48000,                // in_sample_rate
 *                       0,                    // log_offset
 *                       NULL);                // log_ctx
 * @endcode
 *
 * Once all values have been set, it must be initialized with swr_init(). If
 * you need to change the conversion parameters, you can change the parameters
 * using @ref AVOptions, as described above in the first example; or by using
 * swr_alloc_set_opts(), but with the first argument the allocated context.
 * You must then call swr_init() again.
 *
 * The conversion itself is done by repeatedly calling swr_convert().
 * Note that the samples may get buffered in swr if you provide insufficient
 * output space or if sample rate conversion is done, which requires "future"
 * samples. Samples that do not require future input can be retrieved at any
 * time by using swr_convert() (in_count can be set to 0).
 * At the end of conversion the resampling buffer can be flushed by calling
 * swr_convert() with NULL in and 0 in_count.
 *
 * The samples used in the conversion process can be managed with the libavutil
 * @ref lavu_sampmanip "samples manipulation" API, including av_samples_alloc()
 * function used in the following example.
 *
 * The delay between input and output, can at any time be found by using
 * swr_get_delay().
 *
 * The following code demonstrates the conversion loop assuming the parameters
 * from above and caller-defined functions get_input() and handle_output():
 * @code
 * uint8_t **input;
 * int in_samples;
 *
 * while (get_input(&input, &in_samples)) {
 *     uint8_t *output;
 *     int out_samples = av_rescale_rnd(swr_get_delay(swr, 48000) +
 *                                      in_samples, 44100, 48000, AV_ROUND_UP);
 *     av_samples_alloc(&output, NULL, 2, out_samples,
 *                      AV_SAMPLE_FMT_S16, 0);
 *     out_samples = swr_convert(swr, &output, out_samples,
 *                                      input, in_samples);
 *     handle_output(output, out_samples);
 *     av_freep(&output);
 * }
 * @endcode
 *
 * When the conversion is finished, the conversion
 * context and everything associated with it must be freed with swr_free().
 * A swr_close() function is also available, but it exists mainly for
 * compatibility with libavresample, and is not required to be called.
 *
 * There will be no memory leak if the data is not completely flushed before
 * swr_free().
