AVFrame.extended_buf

For planar audio which requires more than AV_NUM_DATA_POINTERS AVBufferRef pointers, this array will hold all the references which cannot fit into AVFrame.buf.

Note that this is different from AVFrame.extended_data, which always contains all the pointers. This array only contains the extra pointers, which cannot fit into AVFrame.buf.

This array is always allocated using av_malloc() by whoever constructs the frame. It is freed in av_frame_unref().

struct AVFrame
AVBufferRef** extended_buf;
