But the majority of the users can already simply replace it with avcodec_free_context(), which will simplify the transition once it is finally deprecated. --- libavcodec/avcodec.h | 5 +++++ 1 file changed, 5 insertions(+) diff --git a/libavcodec/avcodec.h b/libavcodec/avcodec.h index 24cf39f..dc6649a 100644 --- a/libavcodec/avcodec.h +++ b/libavcodec/avcodec.h @@ -3756,6 +3756,11 @@ int avcodec_open2(AVCodecContext *avctx, const AVCodec *codec, AVDictionary **op * Calling this function on an AVCodecContext that hasn't been opened will free * the codec-specific data allocated in avcodec_alloc_context3() with a non-NULL * codec.
