/*!\file vpx_codec.h
* \brief Describes the codec algorithm interface to applications.
*
* This file describes the interface between an application and a
* video codec algorithm.
*
* An application instantiates a specific codec instance by using
* vpx_codec_init() and a pointer to the algorithm's interface structure:
* <pre>
* my_app.c:
* extern vpx_codec_iface_t my_codec;
* {
* vpx_codec_ctx_t algo;
* res = vpx_codec_init(&algo, &my_codec);
* }
* </pre>
*
* Once initialized, the instance is manged using other functions from
* the vpx_codec_* family.
