I can understand. Here are the other solutions I considered:

- Pass NULL to start_frame/filter_samples on sinks to mark EOF just like
  that flush callback, all sinks having to be ready for it. IMHO strictly
  worse on all accounts.

- Same as above, but using a flag in rej_perms. Very inelegant.

- Not support sinks (that need flushing) in ffmpeg (command line tool), only
  buffersink. All sinks have to pretend they are actually filters, just like
  (a)showinfo, and produce some output (possibly unchanged).

- Add a callback to the filter context itself used to order sinks to take
  some exercise (i.e. request a frame on their input).

Of course, there may be completely different options I did not think of.

Regards,
