Error when decode AAC with avcodec_decode_audio4()

I'm trying to decode AAC with FFmpeg native decoder and encountered an error

SSR is not implemeted. Update your FFmpeg version to newest from Git. If the      problem still occurs, it mean that your file has a feature which has not implemented.

Function avcodec_decode_audio4() return -1163346256. Is this because of FFmpeg version? I downloaded shared and dev version from here. Is this up to date?

Here is the source code:

I have also read this question: How to decode AAC using avcodec_decode_audio4? but no solution is provided.

f = fopen(filename, "rb");
if (!f) {
    fprintf(stderr, "Could not open %s\n", filename);
    return;
}
outfile = fopen(outfilename, "wb");
if (!outfile) {
    av_free(pCodecCtx);
    return;
}

/* decode until eof */
avpkt.data = inbuf;
avpkt.size = fread(inbuf, 1, AUDIO_INBUF_SIZE, f);

while (avpkt.size > 0) {
    int i, ch;
    int got_frame = 0;

Yeah, that's not going to work. You can't dump raw bytes from some random muxing format (potentially mp4) into a decoder and expect it to work. Use av_read_frame() to read individual audio packets from the muxing format, and feed the resulting AVPacket into the decoder using avcodec_decode_audio4(). See e.g. the dranger api tutorial. I know api-example.c uses the above code, but that unfortunately only works for a very limited subset of cases. Also see the detailed description in the API docs.
