Description
Expectation)
Building with a modern git version of libav/ffmpeg results in succes
What happens)
Make complains about deprecated API usage and exists with error.
atlest avcodec_open should be replaced with avcodec_open2 and av_new_stream with avformat_new_stream. More might exist deeper in the code.
avcodec_encode_video is still presented in libav but as deprecated, should be replaced with avcodec_encode_video2

Do you know what version of ffmpeg/libav introduced these new functions and if it is safe to assume that everyone will be able to compile Dolphin if we're using avcodec_open2?

This was backported to 0.7.3 libav, I think it has been in the git since july 2011

I'm not sure how I feel about making Dolphin impossible to compile without a recent ffmpeg version. Maybe we should check for the existence of the functions and disable the frame dumping ability when running cmake.
BTW, the deprecated functions should not cause a compilation error (only warnings), what compiler are you using and are you using the default compilation CXXFLAGS?

I think without the libav/ffmpeg frame skipping is disabled.
