AVIOContext是有關輸入輸出數據的結構體，其定義位於文件libavformat\avio.h中。

在結構體AVFormatCtx中有AVIOContext類型的成員。

定義代碼如下：

typedef struct AVIOContext {
    /**
     * A class for private options.
     *
     * If this AVIOContext is created by avio_open2(), av_class is set and
     * passes the options down to protocols.
     *
     * If this AVIOContext is manually allocated, then av_class may be set by
     * the caller.
     *
     * warning -- this field can be NULL, be sure to not pass this AVIOContext
     * to any av_opt_* functions in that case.

解碼某mpeg-4碼流（raw format），AVFormat中的AVIOContext *pb的值如圖：

其中和視頻解碼相關的重要結構體包括：

unsigned char *buffer：指向數據開始的位置。一般就是指向文件的開頭。如上圖中的buffer，其前幾個數據爲00 00 01 b0，正是此mpeg-4文件的開頭。

int buffer_size：buffer的最大值，一般爲0x8000即32768.

unsigned char *buf_ptr：當前在buffer中的位置

unsigned char *buf_end：buffer結尾的位置。

int (*read_packet)(void *opaque, uint8_t *buf, int buf_size)：讀一個packet。

int (*write_packet)(void *opaque, uint8_t *buf, int buf_size)：寫一個packet。

int64_t (*seek)(void *opaque, int64_t offset, int whence)：seek到某一位置。

int (*read_pause)(void *opaque, int pause)：對於網絡流媒體，暫停（pause）或者恢復（resume）。

int64_t (*read_seek)(void *opaque, int stream_index, int64_t timestamp, int flags)：seek到某個時間戳。

int seekable：當前的流是否可以seek。
