		enum AVPixelFormat	dst_pix_fmt2,
		enum AVPixelFormat	src_pix_fmt,
		int	has_alpha,
		int *	loss_ptr
	)

Find the best pixel format to convert to given a certain source pixel format and a selection of two destination pixel formats.

When converting from one pixel format to another, information loss may occur. For example, when converting from RGB24 to GRAY, the color information will be lost. Similarly, other losses occur when converting from some formats to other formats. avcodec_find_best_pix_fmt_of_2() selects which of the given pixel formats should be used to suffer the least amount of loss.

If one of the destination formats is AV_PIX_FMT_NONE the other pixel format (if valid) will be returned.

 src_pix_fmt = AV_PIX_FMT_YUV420P;
 dst_pix_fmt1= AV_PIX_FMT_RGB24;
 dst_pix_fmt2= AV_PIX_FMT_GRAY8;
 dst_pix_fmt3= AV_PIX_FMT_RGB8;
 loss= FF_LOSS_CHROMA; // don't care about chroma loss, so chroma loss will be ignored.
 dst_pix_fmt = avcodec_find_best_pix_fmt_of_2(dst_pix_fmt1, dst_pix_fmt2, src_pix_fmt, alpha, &loss);
 dst_pix_fmt = avcodec_find_best_pix_fmt_of_2(dst_pix_fmt, dst_pix_fmt3, src_pix_fmt, alpha, &loss);

Parameters

[in]	dst_pix_fmt1	One of the two destination pixel formats to choose from
[in]	dst_pix_fmt2	The other of the two destination pixel formats to choose from
[in]	src_pix_fmt	Source pixel format
[in]	has_alpha	Whether the source pixel format alpha channel is used.
[in,out]	loss_ptr	Combination of loss flags. In: selects which of the losses to ignore, i.e. NULL or value of zero means we care about all losses. Out: the loss that occurs when converting from src to selected dst pixel format.

Returns: The best pixel format to convert to or -1 if none was found.

enum AVPixelFormat avcodec_find_best_pix_fmt_of_list	(	enum AVPixelFormat *	pix_fmt_list,
		enum AVPixelFormat	src_pix_fmt,
		int	has_alpha,
		int *	loss_ptr
	)

Find the best pixel format to convert to given a certain source pixel format.

When converting from one pixel format to another, information loss may occur. For example, when converting from RGB24 to GRAY, the color information will be lost. Similarly, other losses occur when converting from some formats to other formats. avcodec_find_best_pix_fmt_of_2() searches which of the given pixel formats should be used to suffer the least amount of loss. The pixel formats from which it chooses one, are determined by the pix_fmt_list parameter.

Parameters

[in]	pix_fmt_list	AV_PIX_FMT_NONE terminated array of pixel formats to choose from
[in]	src_pix_fmt	source pixel format
[in]	has_alpha	Whether the source pixel format alpha channel is used.
[out]	loss_ptr	Combination of flags informing you what kind of losses will occur.

Returns: The best pixel format to convert to or -1 if none was found.

void avcodec_get_chroma_sub_sample	(	enum AVPixelFormat	pix_fmt,
		int *	h_shift,
		int *	v_shift
	)

Utility function to access log2_chroma_w log2_chroma_h from the pixel format AVPixFmtDescriptor.

This function asserts that pix_fmt is valid. See av_pix_fmt_get_chroma_sub_sample for one that returns a failure code and continues in case of invalid pix_fmts.

Parameters

[in]	pix_fmt	the pixel format
[out]	h_shift	store log2_chroma_w
[out]	v_shift	store log2_chroma_h

int avcodec_get_pix_fmt_loss	(	enum AVPixelFormat	dst_pix_fmt,
		enum AVPixelFormat	src_pix_fmt,
		int	has_alpha
	)

Compute what kind of losses will occur when converting from one specific pixel format to another.

When converting from one pixel format to another, information loss may occur. For example, when converting from RGB24 to GRAY, the color information will be lost. Similarly, other losses occur when converting from some formats to other formats. These losses can involve loss of chroma, but also loss of resolution, loss of color depth, loss due to the color space conversion, loss of the alpha bits or loss due to color quantization. avcodec_get_fix_fmt_loss() informs you about the various types of losses which will occur when converting from one pixel format to another.

Parameters

[in]	dst_pix_fmt	destination pixel format
[in]	src_pix_fmt	source pixel format
[in]	has_alpha	Whether the source pixel format alpha channel is used.

Returns: Combination of flags informing you what kind of losses will occur (maximum loss for an invalid dst_pix_fmt).

unsigned int avcodec_pix_fmt_to_codec_tag ( enum AVPixelFormat pix_fmt )

Return a value representing the fourCC code associated to the pixel format pix_fmt, or 0 if no associated fourCC code can be found.
