[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] lavc/pthread_frame: set worker thread names

[Anton Khirnov]

---
Yes, the space is limited and we could bikeshed until christmas about
the best way to use it.

Here's an attempt with an 'av' prefix, 'ft' (frame thread) changed to
df (decoder - frame thread), and only two characters guranteed for
thread index.
