• r12943 uses the new API in trunk, which means we now require ffmpeg 3.1 or later going forward (the api is better for things like b-frames allow B frames with video encoders #800)
• 12944 for v0.17.x and 12945 for v0.14.x just print but ignore the deprecation warning, so these versions will remain compatible with older versions of ffmpeg

@smo: you want the latest ffmpeg on your build hosts to continue to be able to build from trunk. I've bumped ffmpeg for osx in r12926, win32 is still done by hand..

For DEB packaging see #1256.

(the memleak I was worried about has been fixed: [https://trac.ffmpeg.org/ticket/5613])

Close if there is nothing else to do.
