James, let me update that:

One of our contributors has already offered fixes for this, which was much
less code than I feared.  It has not yet been merged into our master
branch, but it is probable that it will be for version 2.2.2.  It should be
compilable either with FFmpeg version 3.5 header files or earlier.  Please
fetch this commit from his fork and see if it's good enough for your
purposes.
