codec:[ `Encoder ] Avcodec.Audio.t ->
Avutil.output Avutil.container ->
(Avutil.output, Avutil.audio, [ `Frame ]) stream

or channel_layout
must be passed.
Frames passed to this stream for encoding must have a PTS set according to the given time_base
. 1/sample_rate
is usually a good value for the time_base
.
Please note that some codec require a fixed frame size, denoted by the absence of the `Variable_frame_size
codec capabilities. In this case, the user is expected to pass frames containing exactly Av.get_frame_size stream
.
Avfilter
can be used to slice frames into frames of fixed size. See Avfilter.Utils.convert_audio
for an example.
Raise Error if the opening failed.
