unsigned av_int_list_length_for_size	(	unsigned	elsize,
		const void *	list,
		uint64_t	term
	)

Compute the length of an integer list.

Parameters

elsize	size in bytes of each list element (only 1, 2, 4 or 8)
term	list terminator (usually 0 or -1)
list	pointer to the list

Returns

length of the list, in elements, not counting the terminator

Fill the provided buffer with a string containing a FourCC (four-character code) representation.

Parameters

buf	a buffer with size in bytes of at least AV_FOURCC_MAX_STRING_SIZE
fourcc	the fourcc to represent

Returns
