I don't quite know yet how your event loop looks like, and what
functions it serves.
I'd propose running libavformat reading in a separate thread.
Using struct/object with context data of your application, and mutex,
you can track how much data you have processed, when did you receive
last data portion, use that data actually etc.
For immediate interruption (closing) of stream reading, use
avio_open2() int_cb parameter (see libavformat/avio.h).
