int av_strerror	(	int	errnum,
		char *	errbuf,
		size_t	errbuf_size
	)

Put a description of the AVERROR code errnum in errbuf.

In case of failure the global variable errno is set to indicate the error. Even in case of failure av_strerror() will print a generic error message indicating the errnum provided to errbuf.

Parameters:

	errnum	error code to describe
	errbuf	buffer to which description is written
	errbuf_size	the size in bytes of errbuf

Returns:

0 on success, a negative value if a description for errnum cannot be found
