Hi!
The (external) encoders may overwrite level and profile because of
requested encoding properties, allowing libavcodec to (also) overwrite
them in the context makes sense (and is already done in some cases
afaict).
Please comment, Carl Eugen

Subject: [PATCH] lavc/avcodec: Allow lavc to overwrite
AVCodecContext->profile and level.
This makes more sense and is already done in some cases.
