[Libav-user] Decoding specific formats?

[Patrick Zielinski]

Sorry for the delay, I kind of lost track of time, here are the commands
I've used to generate an mkv format video.

  *ffmpeg.exe -i "C:\path\left_%03d.bmp" -pix_fmt yuv420p left.y4m*  *x264.exe
left.y4m -o left.mkv*


I'm still not really able to consistently decode video's of other format
than .h264, code hasn't changed much, I suppose I'll have to inspire myself
more to the ffmpeg.c script.
