[Libav-user] avformat_open_input with custom AVIOContext (duration incorrect)

 Hello,

I am trying to use a custom AVIOContext to open a wav audio file buffer and
read the duration along with other audio characteristics.  The example code
posted blow shows 2 methods of opening the same file.  In the case where I
call avformat_open_input with the audio.wav file saved on disk, I
consistently get the correct duration.  When I call avformat_open_input
with the audio.wav file saved as a file buffer using a custom AVIOContext,
I am not able to get a reasonable value for duration.

>From the API documentation, I have tried 3 methods I can find for
determining duration without luck. I have tried many different test files
to verify the issue and the duration is either zero or a very large
negative number.  Are there any other methods of getting the duration of an
audio stream or am I missing a step before trying to get the duration?

m_audioInfo->duration = static_cast<double>(pFormatContext->duration)
/ AV_TIME_BASE;
m_audioInfo->duration = (pStream->duration / (1/av_q2d(pStream->time_base)));
m_audioInfo->duration = pFormatContext->duration;


Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!  Below is
the code that I am using:

   size_t size;
};

/* Function for reading the user defined buffer_in_data structure
passed to avio_alloc_context() */
static int read_packet(void* opaque, uint8_t* buf, int buf_size) {
   struct buffer_in_data* bd = (struct buffer_in_data*)opaque;
   buf_size = FFMIN(buf_size, bd->size);

   memcpy(buf, bd->ptr, buf_size);
   bd->ptr += buf_size;
