Can this not be accomplished outside of FFmpeg, by registering your own I/O
callbacks? That would seem to me to be the 'proper' way to do this. More
work? Yes. But less hacky.
I am in agreement that the current placement inside AVIO itself is king of
horrible.
Two other points:
* Why are there random unexlained changes to e.g. movdec's flushing behavior
bundled
in this patch?
* You need to provide documentation / links on, like, what 'metacube' *is*.
It's
absolutely unclear to anyone reading this patch and associated doxy what it
is
or what its usecase is. AFAICT it's your own project?
