1. When set_parameters was removed from AVOutputFormat in 2fb75019, it was forgotten to remove the comment pertaining to it. Said comment now appeared to apply to interleave_packet(); it is of course nonsense and has been replaced by an accurate description. 2. The description of av_write_uncoded_frame() suggested av_interleaved_write_frame() as a replacement if the input is not already correctly interleaved; it also referred to said function for details. Given that said function can't write AVFrames and that the specifics of writing uncoded frames are explained in the description of av_interleaved_write_uncoded_frame(), both references have been fixed. 3. Removed an outdated comment about avformat_seek_file(). Reviewed-by: Marton Balint <cus@passwd.hu> Signed-off-by: Andreas Rheinhardt <andreas.rheinhardt@gmail.com>
