 I get an error (сompiler MSVC 19.39.33523):
 {{{
 ffmpeg\libavutil\wchar_filename.h(60,32): error C2440: '=': cannot convert
 from 'void *' to 'char *'
 }}}
 I explicitly cast the result of the av_malloc_array function to char* and
 there is no more error.
 {{{
 *filename = (char*)av_malloc_array(num_chars, sizeof **filename);
 }}}
 Please make an explicit cast from void* to char*.
