AVInputFormat m4v_demuxer = {
    "m4v",
    "raw MPEG4 video format",
    0,
    NULL /*mpegvideo_probe*/,     <------------- implement this
    video_read_header,
    raw_read_partial_packet,
    raw_read_close,
    .extensions = "m4v", //FIXME remove after writing mpeg4_probe
    .value = CODEC_ID_MPEG4,
};
