[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH v2 09/12] lavc/videotoolboxenc: add concatentation properties

Fri Apr 22 18:14:11 CEST 2016


Add frames_before and frames_after as hints that there will be frames before
or after the frames produced in this session. This may help with
concatenation issues like bit rate spikes.
