The enforcing logic has a precondition, that codec_tag is in little endian. flv_video_codec_ids and flv_audio_codec_ids don’t match this requirement. > > I honestly don't think anything needs to be changed at all. > Passing custom tags is simply not something flv sensibly supports. AVOutputFormat codec_tag is API exported to users. Even if users are not supposed to pass codec_tag to flvenc, the exported information should match the tradition, that codec_tag is in little endian according to the code in av_fourcc_make_string, mov, matroska, and so on. There is no explicit documentation on the endian issue of codec_tag. I hope developers familiar with the history can share insights on this topic.
