This commit does way more than just moving the enum, it also
deprecates existing enum values and adds new ones. That should be
mentioned in the commit message and in doc/APIchanges.

Adding the header to the installed header list should also be moved to
this commit.

The newly-deprecated enum values should be put under removal guards
(i.e. #ifdef FF_API_OLD_SUBTITLES ...)

The use of this field should be documented. If it's a part of public
API, you are preventing any new types from being added without an
API/ABI break.

Yes of course!

At which place should FF_API_OLD_SUBTITLES get defined then (set to 1 for now)?

Yes I am. In the legacy API, SUBTITLE_NONE actually had a meaning like 
"unspecified", "unknown" or "not set" (obviously - having a value of int 0).
The ***_NONE values of the regular APIs though (e.g. AV_PIXFMT_NONE) 
have a rather obscure semantic - sometimes being used as array sentinels, 
sometimes for tristate sef/unset logic etc.

SUBTITLE_NONE was nothing like that. It's the logical equivalent to 
AV_SUBTITLE_FMT_UNKNOWN, despite the naming confusion. 

I should also add that the actual define SUBTITLE_NONE has been used at a single
place in all ffmpeg code only (https://github.com/FFmpeg/FFmpeg/search?q=SUBTITLE_NONE).

The naming of the new constants is chosen to follow the API for audio and video
(AV_SAMPLE_FMT_, AV_PIXFMT_). Actually I tried to establish equality to the
other two wherever possible, even when something could have been "simplified",
but I think that uniformity ("know one, know the other") is a much higher value
from an API perspective than saving two or three functions and a few parameters 
here and there.

I guess you mean this text?

This is something I would need some help with. Which of my commits should 
bump versions in which libs and where major or minor bump?

Here's what I _think_ (possibly wrong):
It's based on the V18 patchset


01/19 avcodec,avutil: Move enum AVSubtitleType to avutil, add new and

- major bump in avcodec because AVSubtitleType is removed
- major bump in avutil because AVSubtitleType is added

02/19 avutil/frame: Prepare AVFrame for subtitle handling

- major bump in avutil because AVFrame struct is modified
  (not just adding to the end)

03/19 avcodec/subtitles: Introduce new frame-based subtitle decoding

- minor bump in avcodec. New APIs are added, existing API remains functional

04/19 avfilter/subtitles: Update vf_subtitles to use new decoding api
(no change)

05/19 avcodec,avutil: Move ass helper functions to avutil as avpriv_ 

- major bump in avcodec and avutil
  no public APIs are changed but each lib depends on the other to be updated

06/19 avcodec/subtitles: Migrate subtitle encoders to frame-based API
(no change)
07/19 fftools/play,probe: Adjust for subtitle changes
(no change)
08/19 avfilter/subtitles: Add subtitles.c for subtitle frame allocation
(no change)

09/19 avfilter/avfilter: Handle subtitle frames

- minor bump in avfilter due to additions to the end of AVFilter struct.


No change for the remaining commits (18-19).


Does that make sense?

Thanks,
sw

If you expect the whole set to be pushed at once, it is enough to have a
separate patch at the end that bumps the versions of all the affected
libraries and adds the necessary APIchanges entries.

Enums exist only in the headers, they are not exported by the binaries
in the way functions are. So moving an enum declaration from avcodec.h
to lavu does not actually break compatibility as long as avcodec.h
includes the new header (and thus provides the type to any legacy
programs).

So this requires only a minor bump in libavutil for adding a new header
and new enum values. A major bump would be required for changes that
break existing callers, adding new declarations does not break
anyything.

Why not just move your changes to the end?

You seem not to realize that a major bump is a big deal. We typically do
it not more than once per years, and there was one already this spring.
You should avoid API/ABI-breaking changes if possible, and it is very
much possible here.

A minor bump in libavutil. libavcodec must be used with libavutil from
the same commit or newer.

No bump - the changes are in a non-public part of that struct.

I don't think it's obscure and don't even see the difference --
AV_{PIX,SAMPLE}_FMT_NONE means exactly unspecified/unknown/not set. It's
the equivalent of the null pointer. And exactly like the null pointer,
it can be used as an array terminator.

"Nothing like that"? It sounds like exactly the same thing. Also note
that the doxygen for both in your patch says "subtitle format unknown".

And as far as I can tell, it's used for empty subtitle blocks that do
not get output to the user. We do not need a special format for that.

Coherence with the other format APIs is a worthy goal, but seems to me
you could also achieve that by dropping AV_SUBTITLE_FMT_UNKNOWN
completely. What is it actually needed for?

Yes -- if you add new values to the enum then the value of
AV_SUBTITLE_FMT_NB would increase, breaking binary compatibility with
any callers that used it.

I'm confused, previously I was told that patches should be atomic and I 
thought that APIchanges entries should be made in the same patchset.

Should this be a separate commit then, that only does APIchanges entries
and version bumps?

The position of the subtitle fields doesn't matter a lot. I thought
that the AVMediaType field would be too elementary to put it at the
end. But on the other hand: If that would be the only change causing 
a major bump, then it will surely make sense to add it to the end
(it could still be moved later when another major bump happens).

OK, will change.

Understood.

So I make the changes, combine them into a single additional commit at the
end, right?
