We currently expose the "FFmpeg" CUDA interface as
set_cuda_backend("ffmpeg"). But in private code, we're still referring to it as the "default" interface, which is what we used to call it.This PR renames all uses of "default" into "ffmpeg". This is more consistent with what we publicly expose, and also makes sense since the "default" behavior of the
Interfacebase class is to dispatch to FFmpeg (once #954 is merged).
