Subtitle decoding api is inconsistent with video and audio decoding #10

Open Dr-42 opened 1 year ago

Dr-42 commented 1 year ago

For subtitles, there is just a decode method instead of the send_packet and receive frame. For that there needs to be a Frame(Subtitle) type in the frames folder I believe. Is this api design intentional?

I don't have much prior experience working with ffmpeg, I just want to shows subtitles using the egui-video crate in my own app.

Please and Thank you.

This is intentional. This Rust library is a relatively thin wrapper around the FFmpeg API, and they use a function called avcodec_subtitle_decode2 for subtitles instead of their usual packet-based API.
