@subsection Adding files to the fate-suite dataset
When there is no muxer or encoder available to generate test media for a
specific test then the media has to be inlcuded in the fate-suite.
First please make sure that the sample file is as small as possible to test the
respective decoder or demuxer sufficiently. Large files increase network
bandwidth and disk space requirements.
Once you have a working fate test and fate sample, provide in the commit
message or introductionary message for the patch series that you post to
the ffmpeg-devel mailing list, a direct link to download the sample media.
