Applied.

What about these ones?

av_codec_next             -> avcodec_next

av_alloc_format_context   -> avformat_alloc_context
av_register_input_format  -> avformat_register_input
av_register_output_format -> avformat_register_output
av_iformat_next           -> avformat_next_input
av_oformat_next           -> avformat_next_output

Rename patch for av_alloc_format_context() attached.
