Well, now I am sending my function. I have made a small step forward.
I remember that this function produces h264, theora and vp8 videos correctly.
The small step forward is about the use of "avio_open_dyn_buf, avio_close_dyn_buf" functions. Now I can read the buffer at the end of the encoding correctly. I can put the buffer in a file and
the file is played correctly. The problem is that I can read the buffer only at the end of the encoding!
The question is: how can I read the buffer (and empy it) during the encoding?
