Before you call avcodec_open2 set the property by calling the

     av_opt_set_double(enc_ctx->priv_data, "crf", 23.0, 0);

Some of the options need to be set on the "priv_data", ones that are
codec related, others can be set directly to the enc_ctx

     av_opt_set_int(enc_ctx, "sc_threshold", 1, 0);
