• IMPORTANT: The new field mime_type was added to AVProbeData.
To avoid crashes, make sure to always initialize AVProbeData, e.g. use
'AVProbeData pd = { 0 };' instead of 'AVProbeData pd;'.

• -vismv option is deprecated in favor of the codecview filter
• libmodplug is now detected through pkg-config
