=====avcodec_encode_subtitle=====
====Overview====
Defined in ''avcodec.h''\\

Encodes a subtitle frame from ''sub'' into ''buf''.\\
The [[ffmpeg:avcodec_encode_subtitle()]] function encodes a video frame from the input ''sub''. To encode it, it makes use of the video codec which was coupled with ''avctx'' using [[ffmpeg:avcodec_open()]]. The resulting encoded bytes representing the frame are stored in the output buffer ''buf''.

<code c>
int avcodec_encode_subtitle(AVCodecContext *avctx,
                            uint8_t *buf,
                            int buf_size,
                            const AVSubtitle *sub);

====Parameters====
===avctx===
<code c>AVCodecContext *avctx</code>
The [[ffmpeg:AVCodecContext]] codec context.

===buf===
<code c>uint8_t *buf</code>
The output buffer for the bitstream of encoded frame.

===buf_size===
<code c>int buf_size</code>
The size of the output buffer in bytes.

===sub===
<code c>const AVSubtitle *sub</code>
