Libavresample is now stable. 2012-09-24 - a42aada - lavc 54.28.0 - avcodec.h  Add avcodec_free_frame(). This function must now  be used for freeing an AVFrame. 2012-09-12 - 8919fee - lavu 51.41.0 - audioconvert.h  Added AV_CH_LOW_FREQUENCY_2 channel mask value. 2012-09-04 - 686a329 - lavu 51.40.0 - opt.h  Reordered the fields in default_val in AVOption, changed which  default_val field is used for which AVOptionType. 2012-08-30 - a231832 - lavc 54.26.1 - avcodec.h  Add codec descriptor properties AV_CODEC_PROP_LOSSY and  AV_CODEC_PROP_LOSSLESS. 2012-08-18 - lavc 54.26 - avcodec.h  Add codec descriptors for accessing codec properties without having  to refer to a specific decoder or encoder.   c223d79 - Add an AVCodecDescriptor struct and functions            avcodec_descriptor_get() and avcodec_descriptor_next().  51efed1 - Add AVCodecDescriptor.props and AV_CODEC_PROP_INTRA_ONLY.  91e59fe - Add avcodec_descriptor_get_by_name().  2012-08-08 - 1d9c2dc - lavu 51.39 - avutil.h  Don't implicitly include libavutil/common.h in avutil.h 2012-08-08 - 987170c - lavu 51.38 - dict.h  Add av_dict_count(). 2012-08-07 - 104e10f - lavc 54.25 - avcodec.h  Rename CodecID to AVCodecID and all CODEC_ID_* to AV_CODEC_ID_*.  To provide backwards compatibility, CodecID is now #defined as AVCodecID.  Note that this can break user code that includes avcodec.h and uses the  'CodecID' identifier. Such code should either #undef CodecID or stop using the  CodecID name.
