 In my program the functions "avio_open_dyn_buf() / avio_close_dyn_buf()"
 work fine. On "avio_close_dyn_buf()" I can save the buffer in a file and
 the file can be played correctly.
 In order to limit the memory usage, I have inserted in my code this:

 DynBuffer *d= (DynBuffer*)pFormatCtx->pb->opaque;
 QByteArray QBAByteIn((const char*)d->buffer, d->pos);
 QFMPGFileOut.write(QBAByteIn);
 d->pos= d->size= 0;

 that's executed many times before "avio_close_dyn_buf()" function.
 This works only with codecs CODEC_ID_THEORA and
 CODEC_ID_MPEG4 but not with codecs CODEC_ID_VP8 and CODEC_ID_H264.
 Is this a bug or is not possible to extract something from the buffer
 before "avio_close_dyn_buf()"?

 See the source code attached.
