It combines get_buffer2 with release_buffer, which is complete
non-sense. Now I don't want to talk badly about them, but I wouldn't
try to learn from a tutorial from people who don't know what they're
doing. The best way to guess how ffmpeg is supposed to work is probably
still looking at ffplay.c.

get_buffer is legacy, and get_buffer2 is not used with release_buffer.

No.
