[FFmpeg-devel] Set AVIOContext->seekable automatically

[Hendrik Schreiber]

Hey,

just because I wasted some time on this, when I was working with it.

When creating an AVIOContext (for an in memory source, for example). one uses avio_alloc_context.
There are cases when one cannot seek (e.g. in a stream). For avio_alloc_context this means that the seek function pointer is NULL.

Wouldn't it make sense to initialize seekable accordingly, i.e. set it to 0 when the function pointer is NULL? Would have saved me a couple of hours.

Patch attached.

Cheers,

-hendrik
