FFmpeg存放压缩后的音视频数据的结构体：AVPacket简介，结构体，函数
如下图的解码流程，AVPacket中的位置
FFmpeg源码中通过AVPacket存储压缩后的音视频数据。它通常由解复用器（demuxers）输出，然后作为输入传递给解码器。
或者从编码器作为输出接收，然后传递给多路复用器（muxers）。
对于视频，它通常包含一个压缩帧；对于音频，它可能包含几个压缩帧。编码器允许输出不包含压缩音视频数据、只包含side data(边数据：例如，在编码结束时更新一些流参数)的空的数据包（ empty packets）。

} AVPacket;成员变量buf：
AVBufferRef类型指针，指向“存储packet（一个数据包的压缩后的音视频）数据的引用计数缓冲区”。如果为NULL，表示该packet数据未被引用计数。AVPacket通过AVBufferRef来管理引用计数缓冲区。通过AVBufferRef结构体里面的AVBuffer里面的成员变量refcount记录资源使用的次数，控制资源的释放。
关于AVBufferRef类型可以参考：FFmpeg引用计数数据缓冲区相关的结构体：AVBuffer、AVBufferRef。-CSDN博客
成员变量pts：
显示时间戳（presentation time stamp）。即帧显示的时间刻度，用来告诉播放器在哪个时间点显示此帧（可以简单理解为这帧视频或音频数据的播放时间）。其单位不是秒，而是以AVStream->time_base为单位。pts必须大于或等于dts，因为一帧视频或音频数据必须在解码后才能播放，所以一帧视频或音频数据的显示/播放时间必须大于或等于解码时间。
成员变量dts：
解码时间戳（Decompression timestamp）。即帧解码的时间刻度，用来告诉播放器在哪个时间点解码此帧。其单位不是秒，而是以AVStream->time_base为单位。
成员变量data：
指针，指向“存放压缩后的一帧（对于视频通常包含一个压缩帧，对于音频可能包含几个压缩帧）音视频数据的缓冲区”。
成员变量size：
成员变量data指向的缓冲区的大小，单位为字节。
成员变量stream_index：
索引，用来标识该AVPacket所属的视频/音频流的序号，表示这是第几路流。注意：它是从0而不是从1开始的。
成员变量flags：
AV_PKT_FLAG的组合。值有如下选择：
#define AV_PKT_FLAG_KEY 0x0001 ///< The packet contains a keyframe
#define AV_PKT_FLAG_CORRUPT 0x0002 ///< The packet content is corrupted
/**
* Flag is used to discard packets which are required to maintain valid
* decoder state but are not required for output and should be dropped
* after decoding.
**/
#define AV_PKT_FLAG_DISCARD 0x0004
/**
* The packet comes from a trusted source.
*
* Otherwise-unsafe constructs such as arbitrary pointers to data
* outside the packet may be followed.
*/
#define AV_PKT_FLAG_TRUSTED 0x0008
/**
* Flag is used to indicate packets that contain frames that can
* be discarded by the decoder. I.e. Non-reference frames.
*/
#define AV_PKT_FLAG_DISPOSABLE 0x0010AV_PKT_FLAG_KEY：数据包包含一个关键帧，即当前AVPacket是关键帧。
AV_PKT_FLAG_CORRUPT：数据包内容已损坏。
AV_PKT_FLAG_DISCARD：用于丢弃需要保持有效解码器状态但不需要输出的数据包，并且在解码后应该丢弃。带有该标志的AVPacket所携带的数据为解码器相关的信息，不会被解码出一幅图像。
AV_PKT_FLAG_TRUSTED：该数据包来自一个可信的源。
AV_PKT_FLAG_DISPOSABLE：用于指示包含可以被解码器丢弃的帧的数据包。也就是非参考帧。
成员变量side_data：
存放“容器可以提供的额外数据包数据”的数组的首地址。数据包可以包含多种类型的边信息，比如，在编码结束的时候更新一些流的参数。指针side_data指向的空间存储了用于解码、展现或处理编码流的辅助信息，它通常由解复用器和编码器导出，可以以分组为单位提供给解码器和复用器，也可以作为全局侧数据(应用于整个编码流)。
成员变量side_data_elems：
side_data的数量。
成员变量duration：
该数据包的持续时间，以AVStream->time_base为单位。值为下一个数据包的pts减去当前数据包的pts。如果值为0表示未知。
成员变量pos：
该数据包在流中的位置，单位为字节。值为-1表示未知。
成员变量opaque：
指针，指向“存放用户使用的私有数据的缓冲区”。
成员变量time_base：
AVRational类型，数据包时间戳的时间基准，即pts和dts的时间基。
例如对于视频来说，这个值可能是 1,25 也就是说，1秒钟我们显示
AVPacket 相关函数说明
av_packet_alloc函数
av_packet_alloc函数定义在源文件libavcodec/avpacket.c中：
需要通过av_packet_free() 释放
* @note this only allocates the AVPacket itself, not the data buffers. Those
* must be allocated through other means such as av_new_packet.
需要注意的是： 通过 av_packet_alloc的只能 allocates avpacket自己，里面并没有内容
/**
* Allocate an AVPacket and set its fields to default values. The resulting
* struct must be freed using av_packet_free().
*
* @return An AVPacket filled with default values or NULL on failure.
*
* @note this only allocates the AVPacket itself, not the data buffers. Those
* must be allocated through other means such as av_new_packet.
*
* @see av_new_packet
*/
AVPacket *av_packet_alloc(void);测试，我们看到在 av_packet_alloc之后，除了avpacket自己有值外，里面的数据都是0或者随机值
void av_packet_free(AVPacket **pkt);
/**
* Free the packet, if the packet is reference counted, it will be
* unreferenced first.
*
* @param pkt packet to be freed. The pointer will be set to NULL.
* @note passing NULL is a no-op.
*/
