 *
 * The buffersink and abuffersink filters are there to connect filter graphs
 * to applications. They have a single input, connected to the graph, and no
 * output. Frames must be extracted using av_buffersink_get_frame() or
 * av_buffersink_get_samples().
 *
 * The format negotiated by the graph during configuration can be obtained
 * using the accessor functions:
 * - av_buffersink_get_time_base(),
 * - av_buffersink_get_format(),
 * - av_buffersink_get_frame_rate(),
 * - av_buffersink_get_w(),
 * - av_buffersink_get_h(),
 * - av_buffersink_get_sample_aspect_ratio(),
 * - av_buffersink_get_channels(),
 * - av_buffersink_get_channel_layout(),
 * - av_buffersink_get_sample_rate().
 *
 * The format can be constrained by setting options, using av_opt_set() and
 * related functions with the AV_OPT_SEARCH_CHILDREN flag.
 *  - pix_fmts (int list),
 *  - sample_fmts (int list),
 *  - sample_rates (int list),
 *  - channel_layouts (int64_t),
 *  - channel_counts (int list),
 *  - all_channel_counts (bool).
 * Most of these options are of type binary, and should be set using
 * av_opt_set_int_list() or av_opt_set_bin(). If they are not set, all
 * corresponding formats are accepted.
 *
 * As a special case, if neither channel_layouts nor channel_counts is set,
 * all valid channel layouts are accepted, but channel counts without a
 * layout are not, unless all_channel_counts is set.
 * Also, channel_layouts must not contain a channel layout already accepted
 * by a value in channel_counts; for example, if channel_counts contains 2,
 * then channel_layouts must not contain stereo.
