Mike Jumper reopened GUACAMOLE-465:
-----------------------------------
      Assignee: Mike Jumper  (was: Sean Reid)

Coverity is reporting an issue with the printf-style arguments of one of the log messages, the way that the created file is deleted on failure (checking {{access()}} before an unchecked call to {{remove()}}), and a possible resource leak.

I'll recheck and fix if valid.

> Currently, guacenc writes raw mpeg4 frames into a file and gives it a file extension of m4v. While this works for that specific codec and container combination, adding more advanced codecs will require better container support. 
> FFMpeg provides a library, libavformat, that provides true container support. libavformat should be added as a dependency to guacenc and the current file writing code should be refactored to leverage libavformat. These changes will facilitate future work on adding new codec support to guacenc.
