All ffmpeg examples I've seen were either outdated or broken. Nowadays
you should just use the AVFrame parameters.

No, that seems unusual. Normally the codec context should have the
parameters of the last AVFrame returned, I think. Maybe something fishy
is going on.

Yes. Also, sws_getContext is deprecated.

No. Does playback with ffplay work? Also, mov and mp4 are the same
format.
