Sorry, will pay attention from now on.

I have the feeling that not only these functions should be mutex'ed. After I
increased the number of concurrent threads, I encountered a lot of errors
returned by setup functions like av_codec_open(), even when they are
protected by mutex. I think the earlier functions, like av_set_parameters(),
av_open_stream() should be protected as well.

Anyone can comment on this?
