Comment (by andrewrk):
> Your code looks as if you had issues with avcodec_find_encoder_by_name()
though: Which issues did you see?
I'm sorry, I don't remember.
> Why should this codec be overwritten if this is neither the documented
behaviour of av_guess_codec() nor the behaviour since this function
exists?
I think what you said about this function being very old is reasonable. I
would be satisfied with a resolution of updating the documentation for
av_guess_codec to make it more clear what the role of the function is.
