-version 0.9:
-
-- openal input device added
-- boxblur filter added
-- BWF muxer
-- Flash Screen Video 2 decoder
-- lavfi input device added
-- added avconv, which is almost the same for now, except
-for a few incompatible changes in the options, which will hopefully make them
-easier to use. The changes are:
-    * The options placement is now strictly enforced! While in theory the
-      options for ffmpeg should be given in [input options] -i INPUT [output
-      options] OUTPUT order, in practice it was possible to give output options
-      before the -i and it mostly worked. Except when it didn't - the behavior was
-      a bit inconsistent. In avconv, it is not possible to mix input and output
-      options. All non-global options are reset after an input or output filename.
-    * All per-file options are now truly per-file - they apply only to the next
-      input or output file and specifying different values for different files
-      will now work properly (notably -ss and -t options).
-    * All per-stream options are now truly per-stream - it is possible to
-      specify which stream(s) should a given option apply to. See the Stream
-      specifiers section in the avconv manual for details.
-    * In ffmpeg some options (like -newvideo/-newaudio/...) are irregular in the
-      sense that they're specified after the output filename instead of before,
-      like all other options. In avconv this irregularity is removed, all options
-      apply to the next input or output file.
-    * -newvideo/-newaudio/-newsubtitle options were removed. Not only were they
-      irregular and highly confusing, they were also redundant. In avconv the -map
-      option will create new streams in the output file and map input streams to
-      them. E.g. avconv -i INPUT -map 0 OUTPUT will create an output stream for
-      each stream in the first input file.
-    * The -map option now has slightly different and more powerful syntax:
-        + Colons (':') are used to separate file index/stream type/stream index
-          instead of dots. Comma (',') is used to separate the sync stream instead
-          of colon.. This is done for consistency with other options.
-        + It's possible to specify stream type. E.g. -map 0:a:2 creates an
-          output stream from the third input audio stream.
-        + Omitting the stream index now maps all the streams of the given type,
-          not just the first. E.g. -map 0:s creates output streams for all the
-          subtitle streams in the first input file.
-        + Since -map can now match multiple streams, negative mappings were
-          introduced. Negative mappings disable some streams from an already
-          defined map. E.g. '-map 0 -map -0:a:1' means 'create output streams for
-          all the stream in the first input file, except for the second audio
-          stream'.
-    * There is a new option -c (or -codec) for choosing the decoder/encoder to
-      use, which allows to precisely specify target stream(s) consistently with
-      other options. E.g. -c:v lib264 sets the codec for all video streams, -c:a:0
-      libvorbis sets the codec for the first audio stream and -c copy copies all
-      the streams without reencoding. Old -vcodec/-acodec/-scodec options are now
-      aliases to -c:v/a/s
-    * It is now possible to precisely specify which stream should an AVOption
-      apply to. E.g. -b:v:0 2M sets the bitrate for the first video stream, while
-      -b:a 128k sets the bitrate for all audio streams. Note that the old -ab 128k
-      syntax is deprecated and will stop working soon.
-    * -map_chapters now takes only an input file index and applies to the next
-      output file. This is consistent with how all the other options work.
-    * -map_metadata now takes only an input metadata specifier and applies to
-      the next output file. Output metadata specifier is now part of the option
-      name, similarly to the AVOptions/map/codec feature above.
-    * -metadata can now be used to set metadata on streams and chapters, e.g.
-      -metadata:s:1 language=eng sets the language of the first stream to 'eng'.
-      This made -vlang/-alang/-slang options redundant, so they were removed.
-    * -qscale option now uses stream specifiers and applies to all streams, not
-      just video. I.e. plain -qscale number would now apply to all streams. To get
-      the old behavior, use -qscale:v. Also there is now a shortcut -q for -qscale
-      and -aq is now an alias for -q:a.
-    * -vbsf/-absf/-sbsf options were removed and replaced by a -bsf option which
-      uses stream specifiers. Use -bsf:v/a/s instead of the old options.
-    * -itsscale option now uses stream specifiers, so its argument is only the
-      scale parameter.
-    * -intra option was removed, use -g 0 for the same effect.
-    * -psnr option was removed, use -flags +psnr for the same effect.
-    * -vf option is now an alias to the new -filter option, which uses stream specifiers.
-    * -vframes/-aframes/-dframes options are now aliases to the new -frames option.
-    * -vtag/-atag/-stag options are now aliases to the new -tag option.
