This patch just enables the path from ffmpeg to libx264,
the more encoders can be added later.

Isn't this roi++?
If yes, please change this.

I also wonder if the wording (elsewhere) of "returns EINVAL
if size is zero" is correct: Shouldn't it be "size must be >0"
or similar? A struct can hardly return an error, no?

Sorry for the late comment, Carl Eugen

no, it's not roi++, the reason is that struct AVRegionOfInterest might be extended,
so to keep ABI compatible, we add the 'self_size'.  It is discussed in V4 comments.

self_size is uint32_t, it is > 0 if not zero.

it is caller's responsibility to set the value to be sizeof(AVRegionOfInterest).
There will be an error if the caller does not set it explicitly.

So after AVRegionOfInterest was extended, you as a user who had
compiled his application against old libavcodec will use new libavcodec
(with the extension) and it will be guaranteed that libx264 will still get
the correct information although only the part of the struct before the
extension was filled?
Does this guarantee really help?

The comment I saw is in another file (probably another patch),
sorry if this is confusing (I also find it confusing).
I will hopefully not be affected by the documentation, I just wanted
to point out that the wording is misleading imo, because structs
do not return errors.

yes, I think it helps. otherwise, it becomes a possible ABI issue.

I see, it is in frame.h of patch 1/2.

imho, current wording is not misleading, the wording exactly matches the code, while the code is acceptable.
There is also an explicit note (very close these wording) that the correct value should be sizeof(AVRegionOfInterest).

Regarding "structs do not return errors": 

> or similar? A struct can hardly return an error, no?

it is caller's responsibility to set the value to be sizeof(AVRegionOfInterest).
There will be an error returned if the caller does not set it explicitly.

this patch set asks for pushing if no more concerns, thanks.

I support this.

If nobody raises any concerns in the next 24-48 hrs, I'll go ahead.

Thank you for sticking with it through the bikeshedding.
