I am going to go ahead and start a new thread in response to this statement:

Yep, and I'm stumped.  I've spent over 100 hours looking into it and
attempting to code a fix.  I learned a ton about Libav and about C and
ended up refactoring a lot of the fundamentals of AVbin (in experimental
branches) in an attempt to fix the underlying cause of all the problems (as
I understand it) and ended up with...very similar buggy behavior as I
started with and no more ideas as to why.

I'd be happy to discuss the problems with anyone who would be willing to
jump in and help with the C code.  I believe I need to commit my latest
branches of refactoring attempts, though.

I picked up maintainership of AVbin 1) to learn, 2) for fun, 3) to ensure
it would keep working with new versions of everything else, and most
importantly 4) because no one else would.

#1 has been accomplished.  #2 is over.  It's no longer fun for me and I'm
not willing to invest any more weeks trying to bang my head against it.
 I've spent a couple years trying to fix AVbin and Pyglet so that I could
code what I want with them instead of coding what I want with them.  I'm
done with that.

Either someone (or some people) pitch in and help get past this hurdle, or
AVbin is simply going to sit and remain in it's partially functional state
until the OS's pass it by completely.  I'm not going to take the couple
hours to writeup all my findings unless someone is willing to actually do
something with them.

At this point I'd be fine transferring control of the project back to
Richard Jones if that would help anything.

I'm willing to continue to do standard maintenance, updates, and providing
binary packages if no one else will take it (I'm pretty good at that
stuff).  But I can't pretend I currently have sufficient skill in C and
Libav to fix the outstanding issues.
