Thanks. I just got it done..  The confusing things for me are when to set
these various fields of AVStream.codecpar or AVCodecContext, when to copy
from one to the other other, especially the time_base.
For decoding / encoding, demux / mux, there are some subtle differences.
Unfortunately, there are limited documentation and related code comments
are not very clear for me.
What I did is to read the ffmpeg.c and try to figure out what it does. It
would be nice if the examples are updated in time.
