I know input_format_context is set to NULL where it's declared, but perhaps 
it'd be
more clear to the reader if it was explicitly NULLed here.

avcodec_alloc_frame() already calls avcodec_get_frame_defaults(), so there is no
need for this.

You could simplify the code a bit by using avresample itself as your FIFO.
Though OTOH maybe it's better to show the use of the AVAudioFifo API, not
sure...

The proper/recommended way to do this these days is to use the new av_frame_*
API (libavutil/frame.h).

You allocate the frame with av_frame_alloc(), set the properties as you do now,
then call av_frame_get_buffer() to allocate the data.

When you're finished you call av_frame_free() to free both the data and the
frame.
