Enumeration Type Documentation

◆ AVMediaType

enum AVMediaType

Enumerator
AVMEDIA_TYPE_UNKNOWN	Usually treated as AVMEDIA_TYPE_DATA.
AVMEDIA_TYPE_VIDEO
AVMEDIA_TYPE_AUDIO
AVMEDIA_TYPE_DATA	Opaque data information usually continuous.
AVMEDIA_TYPE_SUBTITLE
AVMEDIA_TYPE_ATTACHMENT	Opaque data information usually sparse.
AVMEDIA_TYPE_NB
