What’s the correct mailing list for this?

I’ve been sniffing that file:

https://ffmpeg.org/doxygen/trunk/videotoolboxenc_8c_source.html <https://ffmpeg.org/doxygen/trunk/videotoolboxenc_8c_source.html>

And I believe function

static bool get_vt_h264_profile_level(AVCodecContext *avctx, CFStringRef *profile_level_val)

Is what I want but I don’t know how to pass the right parameters from the api side.

Nuno
