[Libav-user] avcodec_find_decoder is always null

[keren happuch]

Hi,

   Im trying to execute a example program given in ffmpeg folder ,


*1.1. Register all formats and codecs*

   av_register_all();
  avcodec_register_all();
  avformat_network_init();

works fine


*1.2. Open video file*

  char              *drone_addr = "http://192.168.1.1:5555";
  AVFormatContext   *pFormatCtx = NULL;
   while(avformat_open_input(&pFormatCtx, drone_addr, NULL, NULL) != 0)
    printf("Could not open the video file\nRetrying...\n");

works fine



*1.3. Display information*

   // Retrieve stream information
  avformat_find_stream_info(pFormatCtx, NULL);
  // Dump information to standard output
  av_dump_format(pFormatCtx, 0, drone_addr, 0);


works fine



*1.4. Find decoder *

  // Get a pointer to the codec context for the video stream
  // and find the decoder for the video stream
  AVCodecContext    *pCodecCtx;
  AVCodec           *pCodec;
  pCodecCtx = pFormatCtx->streams[0]->codec;
  pCodec    = avcodec_find_decoder(pCodecCtx->codec_id);



the condition fails.. avcodec_find_decoder always fails.. any help Thanks
in advance
