I think he means a minimal application doing various things that test
the muxer within the libavformat API, as opposed to utilizing a
full-blown ffmpeg.c command line with an actual (or runtime generated)
input, actual encoders etc. It tests movenc's logic according to
various use cases that were implemented into the muxer.
