/**
* Write a packet to an output media file.
*
* The packet shall contain one audio or video frame.
* The packet must be correctly interleaved according to the container
* specification, if not then av_interleaved_write_frame must be used.
* This function passes the packet directly to the muxer, without any buffering
* or reordering. The caller is responsible for correctly interleaving the
* packets if the format requires it. Callers that want libavformat to handle
* the interleaving should call av_interleaved_write_frame() instead of this
* function.
*
* @param s media file handle
* @param pkt The packet, which contains the stream_index, buf/buf_size,
* dts/pts, ...
* This can be NULL (at any time, not just at the end), in
* order to immediately flush data buffered within the muxer,
* for muxers that buffer up data internally before writing it
* to the output.
* @param pkt @parblock
* The packet containing the data to be written. Note that unlike
* av_interleaved_write_frame(), this function does not take
* ownership of the packet passed to it (though some muxers may make
* an internal reference to the input packet).
*
* This parameter can be NULL (at any time, not just at the end), in
* order to immediately flush data buffered within the muxer, for
* muxers that buffer up data internally before writing it to the
* output.
*
* Packet's @ref AVPacket.stream_index "stream_index" field must be
* set to the index of the corresponding stream in @ref
* AVFormatContext.streams "s->streams". It is very strongly
* recommended that timing information (@ref AVPacket.pts "pts", @ref
* AVPacket.dts "dts", @ref AVPacket.duration "duration") is set to
* correct values.
* @endparblock
* @return < 0 on error, = 0 if OK, 1 if flushed and there is no more data to flush
*
* @see av_interleaved_write_frame()
