I am using FFMPEG. Rather I built FFMPEG using MSYS and am using the dlls I got from there. Yes I got the lib files as well and trying to do the same avocdec_init(); directly gave me a lot of linker errors LNK 2019 and LNK2001.
You can see the avcodec.h file here
http://svn.mplayerhq.hu/ffmpeg/trunk/libavcodec/
There's also an apiexample.c which is what I am trying to work off from.
I was under the impression that I am supposed to use the new when I initialise.
Thank you for your help so far

You didn't answer my question: are you trying to do what I asked ? So, you have a function that returns a strcture (or a pointer to the struct) and you want to get it ? What is the exact prototype of the function "avcodec_alloc_context" ?

Did you link properly to the lib file ? So, did you add the lib in the project settings ? Instead of taking a complicated way, why don't you simply try to correct the initial errors ?
If this dll is supplied with a lib file and a header file, then you can simply implicitely load the dll (not using LoadLibrary and GetProcAddress, but simply add the header file to your project and link to the library), this is much more easier to manage.

Mostly
ffmpeg was written for LINUX. All I am trying to do is create a simple application that will encode audio/video files. Trying this with the dlls.

Quoting from the apiexample.c
AVCodec *codec;<br />
AVCodecContext *c= NULL;<br />
int frame_size, i, j, out_size, outbuf_size;<br />
FILE *f;<br />
short *samples;<br />
float t, tincr;<br />
uint8_t *outbuf;<br />
<br />
codec = avcodec_find_encoder(CODEC_ID_MP2);<br />
c= avcodec_alloc_context();<br />
<br />
c->bit_rate = 64000;<br />
c->sample_rate = 44100;<br />
c->channels = 2;
This is what I am trying to re-write.
This is how alloc_code_context is defined in the .h file
AVCodecContext *avcodec_alloc_context(void);
 I just tried this
typedef AVCodecContext*(avcodec_alloc_context)(); and I didnt have any errors.It ran perfectly.
Though yes, there is something about memory leaks.Thank you so much for the heads-up

It seems that you didn't read properly everything I wrote  . Or you didn't understand. Basically, it's exactly what I'm trying to say till the begining: that you have to use the exact prototype for the typedef (so, with return type and parameters).
Anyway, why don't you focus on your main problem ? Which is these link errors you get when you use the header and the lib ? Did you even try that ? Are you sure you properly linked to the library ?
Please when answering, read at least my post and answer the questions I ask (there is a reason for which I ask these, even if this is pretty obscure to you).

I am so sorry.
I tried the typedef AVCodecContext* thingy based on your post except that I didnt quote it in my reply.
I believe I am properly linked to the library files. These are the steps I followed
In the project Properties Select C/C++ General Tab
and set the path for 'Include directories' seperated by semicolon( i.e path to libavcodec, libavformat)
In the Linker Tab put the path to Lib files of ffmpeg in the option 'Additional Library Directories path' (i.e the path to avformat.lib etc)
In the Linker Tab Put the Library files names to the option 'Additional dependencies' ( avformat.lib avcodec.lib)
These are the linker errors I am getting
fflib2 error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol ___divdi3
fflib2 error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol ___divdi3
fflib2 error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol ___divdi3 referenced in function _av_reduce
fflib2 error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol ___divdi3
fflib2 error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol ___divdi3

p.s. Would you mind giving me your e-mail address?

Hmmm, strange... Are you sure you linked to all the required libraries ? Didn't you forget some ?
Is there any documentation you can read and check if you did everything properly ?

I would prefer not to do that. Because this is a forum so if we find a solution to your problem, this can be usefull to somebody else.

Well, this is an open-source encoder/decoder. So I downloaded both a release version and the SVN version.The SVN version also contains a "libavutil" folder that isnt there in the release version. Apparently when you build the SVN version, you should get a lib for libavutil which you are supposed to link to your program.Unfortuantely I didnt get any lib only dlls for the 3 folders libavformat, libavcodec and libavutil. The documentation isnt very clear and is mostly for Linux. The release version built fine but it had only the 2 folders libavcodec and libavformat. The build on this one gave me the lib files that I am now using.

I seem to make the most irresponsible of mistakes
I formatted my system recently and hence missed out on this crucial step which I had done before the format
Add a call to `vcvars32.bat' (which sets up the environment variables for the Visual C++ tools) as the first line of `msys.bat'. The standard location for `vcvars32.bat' is `C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio8\VC\bin\vcvars32.bat', and the standard location for `msys.bat' is `C:\msys\1.0\msys.bat'. If this corresponds to your setup, add the following line as the first line of `msys.bat': call "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\bin\vcvars32.bat"
I have my lib files!!!! Yay!!!!!

p2((AVCodecContext *)p4,(AVCodec*)p3);<br />
Notice the last line--p2. p2 should be of the form (avctx,codec) i.e.alloc_code_context and avcodec_find_Encoder. The problem(given my display of my knowledge of pointes, does this really surprise you?) is that I cant pass avctx and codec directly. Also, since avctx takes values like bit_rate, width,height, those have to be reflected when I open the required codec. Any ideas??

One thing you still didn't understand is that a line like as follow is completely wrong !!
codec=(AVCodec *)p3
Basically, p3 is a pointer to a function. The (AVCodec *) in front of it specifies that the pointer must in fact be interpreted as a pointer to a AVCodec structure. Which of course completely false. Please, take care of what I said previously !
If this function returns an AVCode pointer, then you should do this instead:
HMODULE hDll3 = LoadLibrary("avcodec.dll");
typedef (AVCode*)(avcodec_find_encoder)(int CODECID);
avcodec_find_encoder* p3 = (avcodec_find_encoder*)GetProcAddress(hDll3, "avcodec_find_encoder");
if(p3==NULL)
AfxMessageBox("Failed loading3");
p3(CODEC_ID_MPEG1VIDEO);
if(p3==NULL)
AfxMessageBox("Failed loading3");
AVCodec* codec = p3(...);
Also, note that in the typedef, you specified that this function receive a integer parameter, so of course you need to supply it also (note the ... in the function call).
Next, I repeat it once again: don't call LoadLibrary multiple times for the same library, this is useless. And don't forget to call FreeLibrary after it.
For this:
RahulOP wrote: p2((AVCodecContext *)p4,(AVCodec*)p3);
This is the same as above: you cannot cast pointer to functions this way !!. What you need to do, is call p4 (and store the result somewhere, then call p3 and store the result somewhere and finally, call p2 and giving the previous results):
AVCodecContext* pContext = p4();
AVCoded* pCoded = p3(...);
p2(pContext,pCoded);
If you have problems, please update all the code with the remarks I explained here before posting another question (otherwise, I will correct the same things over and over again). If you don't understand something, ask for more information (instead of blindly copy/pasting).
Hope this helps

Thanks!! Helps a lot!!
codec=(AVCodec *)p3 is sheer stupidity since that is the only line i wrote that way. Everything else I did exactly the way you told me.
Will be posting my complete code as soon as I iron out the bugs

Can you e-mail me the files? DejaVuNic -at- Gmail I'll try it a try.

Is there any way to set where a file begins (like SetEndOfFile except that it sets the beginning of the file)? I have a situation where I need to make files smaller by deleting data from the beginning, and reading and writing all the data is very inefficient.
Thanks

I think there is no such way/method to set begins of the file.
But you can maintain your delimiter for the begining of data/file.
Knock out 't' from can't,
You can if you think you can
