上一章分析了AVFormatContext，其中有两个参数

    unsigned int nb_streams;
    AVStream **streams;

nb_streams是当前轨道数，就是流数量，streams是轨道的指针数组。一般而言一个视频文件会有一个视频流和一个音频流，那就是两个AVStream结构。我们看一下AVStream结构体的源码，在libavformat/avformat.h中。

• int index：标识该视频/音频流
• AVCodecContext *codec：指向该视频/音频流的AVCodecContext（它们是一一对应的关系）
• AVRational time_base：时基。通过该值可以把PTS，DTS转化为真正的时间。FFMPEG其他结构体中也有这个字段，但是根据我的经验，只有AVStream中的time_base是可用的。PTS*time_base=真正的时间
• int64_t duration：该视频/音频流长度
• AVDictionary *metadata：元数据信息
• AVRational avg_frame_rate：帧率（注：对视频来说，这个挺重要的）
• AVPacket attached_pic：附带的图片。比如说一些MP3，AAC音频文件附带的专辑封面。
• nb_frames：帧个数

AVStream结构中的数据要靠解码才能得到了，所以是Codec工作之后才能得到的数据。AVStream中的数才是最准确的。
例如AVFormatContext中也有width-height，但是这个width-height不一定准确，一般我们解码出AVRational display_aspect_ratio，这个里面的宽高比才是最终准确的。
或者AVCodecContext *codec中也有宽高的数据。毕竟解出来的帧数据中的信息才最可靠。
