[Libav-user] Questions about using libav in a multi-threaded application

[Tr3wory]

But I don't call the av_log myself. I just call some libav function to
decode a video, and during the processing it calls the av_log.
I can register my own log callback, but because I run more than one
decoding, I don't know where the log information came from.

In other libraries, I can set a pointer called userData or something
when I register a callback, and I can use this pointer in the callback
because I get it as a parameter.

Is this possible somehow in libav?
