[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] swscale: fix deprecation message for JPEG

[Werner Robitza]

This message frequently confuses end users, making them think that they are
doing something wrong [1].

The fact that the "J" format itself is deprecated should not be bothering
the end users.

Since the format can only be changed when the handle_jpeg() function is
called, this means we can tell the users about the fact that the JPEG
conversion is causing this, and that they should check the range.
