[FFmpeg-user] AVCodecContext profile not being set

[Wear, Tyler]

A little more information.

MiniDLNA is using avformat_open_input to retrieve the AVFormatContext, but when the AVCodecContext for the video stream is taken from the AVFormatContext the profile value is always -99 instead of 66 for the h.264 encoded aac 520 file.

The more I look into this the more it looks like a possible FFMPEG error. 

Thanks,
Tyler

Subject: [FFmpeg-user] AVCodecContext profile not being set

So I'm using MiniDLNA, but I'm seeing the the DLNA.ORG_PN is not being set correctly for AVC_MP4_BL_CIF15_AAC_520 files.  That is mpeg4 files with AAC audio.

After some tracing in their code, I found that this is because the AVCodecContext->profile value is set to -99, which is not valid.  My understanding is that avcodec is responsible for setting this.  I disable a lot of options in ffmpeg to reduce the size as much as possible, I'm worried that I indirectly disabled the option for setting the profile...

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Tyler
