Thanks for the response, that was exactly what I was concerned about.
What, then, is considered a "non-hack"-ish way of accomplishing this? In
this case, one has to override the output format settings based on
information from the input format settings, so I don't believe this
could be done optimally within opt_format or opt_output_file, or whether
this should be done, in a "non-hack"-ish way, within opt_format() and
opt_output_file() or instead within av_encode().
