|
|
|
|
<p>FFplay is a very simple and portable media player using the FFmpeg
|
|
libraries and the SDL library. It is mostly used as a testbed for the
|
|
various FFmpeg APIs.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<a name="Options-4"></a>
|
|
<h1 class="chapter"><a href="ffplay.html#toc-Options-4">3. Options</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>All the numerical options, if not specified otherwise, accept in input
|
|
a string representing a number, which may contain one of the
|
|
International System number postfixes, for example ’K’, ’M’, ’G’.
|
|
If ’i’ is appended after the postfix, powers of 2 are used instead of
|
|
powers of 10. The ’B’ postfix multiplies the value for 8, and can be
|
|
appended after another postfix or used alone. This allows using for
|
|
example ’KB’, ’MiB’, ’G’ and ’B’ as postfix.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Options which do not take arguments are boolean options, and set the
|
|
corresponding value to true. They can be set to false by prefixing
|
|
with "no" the option name, for example using "-nofoo" in the
|
|
command line will set to false the boolean option with name "foo".

|
<h2 class="section"><a href="ffplay.html#toc-Stream-specifiers-1">3.1 Stream specifiers</a></h2>
|
|
<p>Some options are applied per-stream, e.g. bitrate or codec. Stream specifiers
|
|
are used to precisely specify which stream(s) does a given option belong to.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>A stream specifier is a string generally appended to the option name and
|
|
separated from it by a colon. E.g. <code>-codec:a:1 ac3</code> option contains
|
|
<code>a:1</code> stream specifer, which matches the second audio stream. Therefore it
|
|
would select the ac3 codec for the second audio stream.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>A stream specifier can match several stream, the option is then applied to all
|
|
of them. E.g. the stream specifier in <code>-b:a 128k</code> matches all audio
|
|
streams.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>An empty stream specifier matches all streams, for example <code>-codec copy</code>
|
|
or <code>-codec: copy</code> would copy all the streams without reencoding.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Possible forms of stream specifiers are:
|
|
</p><dl compact="compact">
|
|
<dt> ‘<samp><var>stream_index</var></samp>’</dt>
|
|
<dd><p>Matches the stream with this index. E.g. <code>-threads:1 4</code> would set the
|
|
thread count for the second stream to 4.
|
|
</p></dd>
|
|
<dt> ‘<samp><var>stream_type</var>[:<var>stream_index</var>]</samp>’</dt>
|
|
<dd><p><var>stream_type</var> is one of: ’v’ for video, ’a’ for audio, ’s’ for subtitle,
|
|
’d’ for data and ’t’ for attachments. If <var>stream_index</var> is given, then
|
|
matches stream number <var>stream_index</var> of this type. Otherwise matches all
|
|
streams of this type.
|
|
</p></dd>

<dt> ‘<samp>p:<var>program_id</var>[:<var>stream_index</var>]</samp>’</dt>
|
|
<dd><p>If <var>stream_index</var> is given, then matches stream number <var>stream_index</var> in

<p>These options are provided directly by the libavformat, libavdevice and

AVCodecContext options for codecs.

options are listed under their corresponding containers/devices/codecs.

|

</dl>
|
|
|
|
<p>For example to write an ID3v2.3 header instead of a default ID3v2.4 to
|
|
an MP3 file, use the ‘<samp>id3v2_version</samp>’ private option of the MP3
|
|
muxer:

</pre></td></tr></table>
|
|

<p>All codec AVOptions are obviously per-stream, so the chapter on stream
|
|
specifiers applies to them
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Note ‘<samp>-nooption</samp>’ syntax cannot be used for boolean AVOptions,
|
|
use ‘<samp>-option 0</samp>’/‘<samp>-option 1</samp>’.

v/a/s to the options name is now obsolete and will be removed soon.

|
|
|
|
<p>When evaluating an arithmetic expression, FFmpeg uses an internal
|
|
formula evaluator, implemented through the ‘<tt>libavutil/eval.h</tt>’
|
|
interface.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>An expression may contain unary, binary operators, constants, and
|
|
functions.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Two expressions <var>expr1</var> and <var>expr2</var> can be combined to form
|
|
another expression "<var>expr1</var>;<var>expr2</var>".
|
|
<var>expr1</var> and <var>expr2</var> are evaluated in turn, and the new
|
|
expression evaluates to the value of <var>expr2</var>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The following binary operators are available: <code>+</code>, <code>-</code>,
|
|
<code>*</code>, <code>/</code>, <code>^</code>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The following unary operators are available: <code>+</code>, <code>-</code>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The following functions are available:

|
|
|
|
<p>In your C code, you can extend the list of unary and binary functions,
|
|
and define recognized constants, so that they are available for your
|
|
expressions.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The evaluator also recognizes the International System number
|
|
postfixes. If ’i’ is appended after the postfix, powers of 2 are used
|
|
instead of powers of 10. The ’B’ postfix multiplies the value for 8,
|
|
and can be appended after another postfix or used alone. This allows
|
|
using for example ’KB’, ’MiB’, ’G’ and ’B’ as postfix.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Follows the list of available International System postfixes, with
|
|
indication of the corresponding powers of 10 and of 2.

|
|
|
|
<p>Image file demuxer.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>This demuxer reads from a list of image files specified by a pattern.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The pattern may contain the string "%d" or "%0<var>N</var>d", which
|
|
specifies the position of the characters representing a sequential
|
|
number in each filename matched by the pattern. If the form
|
|
"%d0<var>N</var>d" is used, the string representing the number in each
|
|
filename is 0-padded and <var>N</var> is the total number of 0-padded
|
|
digits representing the number. The literal character ’%’ can be
|
|
specified in the pattern with the string "%%".
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>If the pattern contains "%d" or "%0<var>N</var>d", the first filename of
|
|
the file list specified by the pattern must contain a number
|
|
inclusively contained between 0 and 4, all the following numbers must
|
|
be sequential. This limitation may be hopefully fixed.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The pattern may contain a suffix which is used to automatically
|
|
determine the format of the images contained in the files.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>For example the pattern "img-%03d.bmp" will match a sequence of
|
|
filenames of the form ‘<tt>img-001.bmp</tt>’, ‘<tt>img-002.bmp</tt>’, ...,
|
|
‘<tt>img-010.bmp</tt>’, etc.; the pattern "i%%m%%g-%d.jpg" will match a
|
|
sequence of filenames of the form ‘<tt>i%m%g-1.jpg</tt>’,
|
|
‘<tt>i%m%g-2.jpg</tt>’, ..., ‘<tt>i%m%g-10.jpg</tt>’, etc.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The size, the pixel format, and the format of each image must be the
|
|
same for all the files in the sequence.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The following example shows how to use <code>ffmpeg</code> for creating a
|
|
video from the images in the file sequence ‘<tt>img-001.jpeg</tt>’,
|
|
‘<tt>img-002.jpeg</tt>’, ..., assuming an input frame rate of 10 frames per
|
|
second:
|
|
</p><table><tr><td> </td><td><pre class="example">ffmpeg -i 'img-%03d.jpeg' -r 10 out.mkv
|
|
</pre></td></tr></table>
|
|
|
|
<p>Note that the pattern must not necessarily contain "%d" or
|
|
"%0<var>N</var>d", for example to convert a single image file
|
|
‘<tt>img.jpeg</tt>’ you can employ the command:
|
|
</p><table><tr><td> </td><td><pre class="example">ffmpeg -i img.jpeg img.png
|
|
</pre></td></tr></table>

<p>Apple HTTP Live Streaming demuxer.
|

</p>
|
|
<p>This demuxer presents all AVStreams from all variant streams.
|
|
The id field is set to the bitrate variant index number. By setting
|
|
the discard flags on AVStreams (by pressing ’a’ or ’v’ in ffplay),
|
|
the caller can decide which variant streams to actually receive.
|
|
The total bitrate of the variant that the stream belongs to is
|

|
<p>SBaGen script demuxer.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>This demuxer reads the script language used by SBaGen
|
|
<a href="http://uazu.net/sbagen/">http://uazu.net/sbagen/</a> to generate binaural beats sessions. A SBG
|
|
script looks like that:
|
|
</p><table><tr><td> </td><td><pre class="example">-SE
|
|
a: 300-2.5/3 440+4.5/0
|
|
b: 300-2.5/0 440+4.5/3
|
|
off: -
|
|
NOW == a
|
|
+0:07:00 == b
|
|
+0:14:00 == a
|
|
+0:21:00 == b
|
|
+0:30:00 off
|
|
</pre></td></tr></table>
|
|
|
|
<p>A SBG script can mix absolute and relative timestamps. If the script uses
|
|
either only absolute timestamps (including the script start time) or only
|
|
relative ones, then its layout is fixed, and the conversion is
|
|
straightforward. On the other hand, if the script mixes both kind of
|
|
timestamps, then the <var>NOW</var> reference for relative timestamps will be
|
|
taken from the current time of day at the time the script is read, and the
|
|
script layout will be frozen according to that reference. That means that if

<h1 class="chapter"><a href="ffplay.html#toc-Muxers">9. Muxers</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>Muxers are configured elements in FFmpeg which allow writing
|
|
multimedia streams to a particular type of file.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>When you configure your FFmpeg build, all the supported muxers
|
|
are enabled by default. You can list all available muxers using the
|
|
configure option <code>--list-muxers</code>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>You can disable all the muxers with the configure option
|
|
<code>--disable-muxers</code> and selectively enable / disable single muxers
|
|
with the options <code>--enable-muxer=<var>MUXER</var></code> /
|
|
<code>--disable-muxer=<var>MUXER</var></code>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The option <code>-formats</code> of the ff* tools will display the list of
|
|
enabled muxers.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>A description of some of the currently available muxers follows.

<p>CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check) testing format.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>This muxer computes and prints the Adler-32 CRC of all the input audio
|
|
and video frames. By default audio frames are converted to signed
|
|
16-bit raw audio and video frames to raw video before computing the
|
|
CRC.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The output of the muxer consists of a single line of the form:
|
|
CRC=0x<var>CRC</var>, where <var>CRC</var> is a hexadecimal number 0-padded to
|
|
8 digits containing the CRC for all the decoded input frames.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>For example to compute the CRC of the input, and store it in the file
|
|
‘<tt>out.crc</tt>’:
|
|
</p><table><tr><td> </td><td><pre class="example">ffmpeg -i INPUT -f crc out.crc
|
|
</pre></td></tr></table>
|
|
|
|
<p>You can print the CRC to stdout with the command:
|
|
</p><table><tr><td> </td><td><pre class="example">ffmpeg -i INPUT -f crc -
|
|
</pre></td></tr></table>
|
|
|
|
<p>You can select the output format of each frame with <code>ffmpeg</code> by
|
|
specifying the audio and video codec and format. For example to
|
|
compute the CRC of the input audio converted to PCM unsigned 8-bit
|
|
and the input video converted to MPEG-2 video, use the command:
|
|
</p><table><tr><td> </td><td><pre class="example">ffmpeg -i INPUT -c:a pcm_u8 -c:v mpeg2video -f crc -

<p>Per-frame CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check) testing format.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>This muxer computes and prints the Adler-32 CRC for each decoded audio
|
|
and video frame. By default audio frames are converted to signed
|
|
16-bit raw audio and video frames to raw video before computing the
|
|
CRC.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The output of the muxer consists of a line for each audio and video
|
|
frame of the form: <var>stream_index</var>, <var>frame_dts</var>,
|
|
<var>frame_size</var>, 0x<var>CRC</var>, where <var>CRC</var> is a hexadecimal
|
|
number 0-padded to 8 digits containing the CRC of the decoded frame.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>For example to compute the CRC of each decoded frame in the input, and
|
|
store it in the file ‘<tt>out.crc</tt>’:
|
|
</p><table><tr><td> </td><td><pre class="example">ffmpeg -i INPUT -f framecrc out.crc

|
|
|
<p>Image file muxer.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The image file muxer writes video frames to image files.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The output filenames are specified by a pattern, which can be used to
|
|
produce sequentially numbered series of files.
|
|
The pattern may contain the string "%d" or "%0<var>N</var>d", this string
|
|
specifies the position of the characters representing a numbering in
|
|
the filenames. If the form "%0<var>N</var>d" is used, the string
|
|
representing the number in each filename is 0-padded to <var>N</var>
|
|
digits. The literal character ’%’ can be specified in the pattern with
|
|
the string "%%".
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>If the pattern contains "%d" or "%0<var>N</var>d", the first filename of
|
|
the file list specified will contain the number 1, all the following
|
|
numbers will be sequential.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The pattern may contain a suffix which is used to automatically
|
|
determine the format of the image files to write.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>For example the pattern "img-%03d.bmp" will specify a sequence of
|
|
filenames of the form ‘<tt>img-001.bmp</tt>’, ‘<tt>img-002.bmp</tt>’, ...,
|
|
‘<tt>img-010.bmp</tt>’, etc.
|
|
The pattern "img%%-%d.jpg" will specify a sequence of filenames of the
|
|
form ‘<tt>img%-1.jpg</tt>’, ‘<tt>img%-2.jpg</tt>’, ..., ‘<tt>img%-10.jpg</tt>’,
|
|
etc.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The following example shows how to use <code>ffmpeg</code> for creating a
|
|
sequence of files ‘<tt>img-001.jpeg</tt>’, ‘<tt>img-002.jpeg</tt>’, ...,
|
|
taking one image every second from the input video:
|
|
</p><table><tr><td> </td><td><pre class="example">ffmpeg -i in.avi -vsync 1 -r 1 -f image2 'img-%03d.jpeg'
|
|
</pre></td></tr></table>
|
|
|
|
<p>Note that with <code>ffmpeg</code>, if the format is not specified with the
|
|
<code>-f</code> option and the output filename specifies an image file
|
|
format, the image2 muxer is automatically selected, so the previous
|
|
command can be written as:
|
|
</p><table><tr><td> </td><td><pre class="example">ffmpeg -i in.avi -vsync 1 -r 1 'img-%03d.jpeg'
|
|
</pre></td></tr></table>
|
|
|
|
<p>Note also that the pattern must not necessarily contain "%d" or
|
|
"%0<var>N</var>d", for example to create a single image file
|
|
‘<tt>img.jpeg</tt>’ from the input video you can employ the command:
|
|
</p><table><tr><td> </td><td><pre class="example">ffmpeg -i in.avi -f image2 -frames:v 1 img.jpeg
|
|
</pre></td></tr></table>
|
|
|
|
<p>The image muxer supports the .Y.U.V image file format. This format is
|
|
special in that that each image frame consists of three files, for
|
|
each of the YUV420P components. To read or write this image file format,
|
|
specify the name of the ’.Y’ file. The muxer will automatically open the
|
|
’.U’ and ’.V’ files as required.

<p>Input devices are configured elements in FFmpeg which allow to access
|
|
the data coming from a multimedia device attached to your system.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>When you configure your FFmpeg build, all the supported input devices
|
|
are enabled by default. You can list all available ones using the
|
|
configure option "–list-indevs".
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>You can disable all the input devices using the configure option
|
|
"–disable-indevs", and selectively enable an input device using the
|
|
option "–enable-indev=<var>INDEV</var>", or you can disable a particular
|
|
input device using the option "–disable-indev=<var>INDEV</var>".
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The option "-formats" of the ff* tools will display the list of
|
|
supported input devices (amongst the demuxers).
|

<p>ALSA (Advanced Linux Sound Architecture) input device.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>To enable this input device during configuration you need libasound
|
|
installed on your system.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>This device allows capturing from an ALSA device. The name of the
|
|
device to capture has to be an ALSA card identifier.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>An ALSA identifier has the syntax:
|
|
</p><table><tr><td> </td><td><pre class="example">hw:<var>CARD</var>[,<var>DEV</var>[,<var>SUBDEV</var>]]
|
|
</pre></td></tr></table>
|
|
|
|
<p>where the <var>DEV</var> and <var>SUBDEV</var> components are optional.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The three arguments (in order: <var>CARD</var>,<var>DEV</var>,<var>SUBDEV</var>)
|
|
specify card number or identifier, device number and subdevice number
|
|
(-1 means any).
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>To see the list of cards currently recognized by your system check the
|
|
files ‘<tt>/proc/asound/cards</tt>’ and ‘<tt>/proc/asound/devices</tt>’.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>For example to capture with <code>ffmpeg</code> from an ALSA device with
|
|
card id 0, you may run the command:

<p>JACK input device.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>To enable this input device during configuration you need libjack
|
|
installed on your system.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>A JACK input device creates one or more JACK writable clients, one for
|
|
each audio channel, with name <var>client_name</var>:input_<var>N</var>, where
|
|
<var>client_name</var> is the name provided by the application, and <var>N</var>
|
|
is a number which identifies the channel.
|
|
Each writable client will send the acquired data to the FFmpeg input
|
|
device.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Once you have created one or more JACK readable clients, you need to
|
|
connect them to one or more JACK writable clients.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>To connect or disconnect JACK clients you can use the <code>jack_connect</code>
|
|
and <code>jack_disconnect</code> programs, or do it through a graphical interface,
|
|
for example with <code>qjackctl</code>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>To list the JACK clients and their properties you can invoke the command
|
|
<code>jack_lsp</code>.
|

data transferred over RDT).
|
|
</p>

<p>When receiving data over UDP, the demuxer tries to reorder received packets
|

(since they may arrive out of order, or packets may get lost totally). In

order for this to be enabled, a maximum delay must be specified in the
|
|
<code>max_delay</code> field of AVFormatContext.

|
|
|
|
<p>A filtergraph is a directed graph of connected filters. It can contain
|
|
cycles, and there can be multiple links between a pair of
|
|
filters. Each link has one input pad on one side connecting it to one
|
|
filter from which it takes its input, and one output pad on the other
|
|
side connecting it to the one filter accepting its output.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Each filter in a filtergraph is an instance of a filter class
|
|
registered in the application, which defines the features and the
|
|
number of input and output pads of the filter.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>A filter with no input pads is called a "source", a filter with no
|
|
output pads is called a "sink".
|
|
</p>
|
|
<a name="Filtergraph-syntax"></a>
|
|
<h2 class="section"><a href="ffplay.html#toc-Filtergraph-syntax">13.1 Filtergraph syntax</a></h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>A filtergraph can be represented using a textual representation, which
|
|
is recognized by the <code>-vf</code> option of the ff*
|
|
tools, and by the <code>avfilter_graph_parse()</code> function defined in
|
|
‘<tt>libavfilter/avfiltergraph.h</tt>’.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>A filterchain consists of a sequence of connected filters, each one
|
|
connected to the previous one in the sequence. A filterchain is
|
|
represented by a list of ","-separated filter descriptions.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>A filtergraph consists of a sequence of filterchains. A sequence of
|
|
filterchains is represented by a list of ";"-separated filterchain
|
|
descriptions.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>A filter is represented by a string of the form:
|
|
[<var>in_link_1</var>]...[<var>in_link_N</var>]<var>filter_name</var>=<var>arguments</var>[<var>out_link_1</var>]...[<var>out_link_M</var>]
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p><var>filter_name</var> is the name of the filter class of which the
|
|
described filter is an instance of, and has to be the name of one of
|
|
the filter classes registered in the program.
|
|
The name of the filter class is optionally followed by a string
|
|
"=<var>arguments</var>".
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p><var>arguments</var> is a string which contains the parameters used to
|
|
initialize the filter instance, and are described in the filter
|
|
descriptions below.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The list of arguments can be quoted using the character "’" as initial
|
|
and ending mark, and the character ’\’ for escaping the characters
|
|
within the quoted text; otherwise the argument string is considered
|
|
terminated when the next special character (belonging to the set
|
|
"[]=;,") is encountered.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The name and arguments of the filter are optionally preceded and
|
|
followed by a list of link labels.
|
|
A link label allows to name a link and associate it to a filter output
|
|
or input pad. The preceding labels <var>in_link_1</var>
|
|
... <var>in_link_N</var>, are associated to the filter input pads,
|
|
the following labels <var>out_link_1</var> ... <var>out_link_M</var>, are
|
|
associated to the output pads.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>When two link labels with the same name are found in the
|
|
filtergraph, a link between the corresponding input and output pad is
|
|
created.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>If an output pad is not labelled, it is linked by default to the first
|
|
unlabelled input pad of the next filter in the filterchain.
|
|
For example in the filterchain:
|
|
</p><table><tr><td> </td><td><pre class="example">nullsrc, split[L1], [L2]overlay, nullsink
|
|
</pre></td></tr></table>
|
|
<p>the split filter instance has two output pads, and the overlay filter
|
|
instance two input pads. The first output pad of split is labelled
|
|
"L1", the first input pad of overlay is labelled "L2", and the second
|
|
output pad of split is linked to the second input pad of overlay,
|
|
which are both unlabelled.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>In a complete filterchain all the unlabelled filter input and output
|
|
pads must be connected. A filtergraph is considered valid if all the
|
|
filter input and output pads of all the filterchains are connected.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Follows a BNF description for the filtergraph syntax:

|
|
|
|
<p>When you configure your FFmpeg build, you can disable any of the
|
|
existing filters using <code>--disable-filters</code>.
|
|
The configure output will show the audio filters included in your
|
|
build.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Below is a description of the currently available audio filters.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<a name="aconvert"></a>
|
|
<h2 class="section"><a href="ffplay.html#toc-aconvert">14.1 aconvert</a></h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>Convert the input audio format to the specified formats.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The filter accepts a string of the form:
|
|
"<var>sample_format</var>:<var>channel_layout</var>:<var>packing_format</var>".
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p><var>sample_format</var> specifies the sample format, and can be a string or
|
|
the corresponding numeric value defined in ‘<tt>libavutil/samplefmt.h</tt>’.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p><var>channel_layout</var> specifies the channel layout, and can be a string
|
|
or the corresponding number value defined in ‘<tt>libavutil/audioconvert.h</tt>’.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p><var>packing_format</var> specifies the type of packing in output, can be one
|
|
of "planar" or "packed", or the corresponding numeric values "0" or "1".
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The special parameter "auto", signifies that the filter will
|
|
automatically select the output format depending on the output filter.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Some examples follow.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>
|
|
Convert input to unsigned 8-bit, stereo, packed:
|
|
<table><tr><td> </td><td><pre class="example">aconvert=u8:stereo:packed
|
|
</pre></td></tr></table>
|
|
|
|
</li><li>
|

|
|
and packing format:
|
|
<table><tr><td> </td><td><pre class="example">aconvert=u8:auto:auto

</li></ul>
|
|
|
|
<a name="aformat"></a>
|
|
<h2 class="section"><a href="ffplay.html#toc-aformat">14.2 aformat</a></h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>Convert the input audio to one of the specified formats. The framework will
|
|
negotiate the most appropriate format to minimize conversions.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The filter accepts three lists of formats, separated by ":", in the form:
|
|
"<var>sample_formats</var>:<var>channel_layouts</var>:<var>packing_formats</var>".
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Elements in each list are separated by "," which has to be escaped in the
|
|
filtergraph specification.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The special parameter "all", in place of a list of elements, signifies all
|
|
supported formats.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Some examples follow:
|
|
</p><table><tr><td> </td><td><pre class="example">aformat=u8\\,s16:mono:packed
|
|
|
|
aformat=s16:mono\\,stereo:all
|

<a name="amerge"></a>
|
|
<h2 class="section"><a href="ffplay.html#toc-amerge">14.3 amerge</a></h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>Merge two audio streams into a single multi-channel stream.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>This filter does not need any argument.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>If the channel layouts of the inputs are disjoint, and therefore compatible,
|
|
the channel layout of the output will be set accordingly and the channels
|
|
will be reordered as necessary. If the channel layouts of the inputs are not
|
|
disjoint, the output will have all the channels of the first input then all
|
|
the channels of the second input, in that order, and the channel layout of
|
|
the output will be the default value corresponding to the total number of
|
|
channels.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>For example, if the first input is in 2.1 (FL+FR+LF) and the second input
|
|
is FC+BL+BR, then the output will be in 5.1, with the channels in the
|
|
following order: a1, a2, b1, a3, b2, b3 (a1 is the first channel of the
|
|
first input, b1 is the first channel of the second input).
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>On the other hand, if both input are in stereo, the output channels will be
|
|
in the default order: a1, a2, b1, b2, and the channel layout will be
|
|
arbitrarily set to 4.0, which may or may not be the expected value.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Both inputs must have the same sample rate, format and packing.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>If inputs do not have the same duration, the output will stop with the
|
|
shortest.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Example: merge two mono files into a stereo stream:
|
|
</p><table><tr><td> </td><td><pre class="example">amovie=left.wav [l] ; amovie=right.mp3 [r] ; [l] [r] amerge

<p>The filter accepts exactly one parameter, the output sample rate. If not

|
specified then the filter will automatically convert between its input
|
|
and output sample rates.

</p>
|

<p>For example, to resample the input audio to 44100Hz:

<p>Forward two audio streams and control the order the buffers are forwarded.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The argument to the filter is an expression deciding which stream should be
|
|
forwarded next: if the result is negative, the first stream is forwarded; if
|
|
the result is positive or zero, the second stream is forwarded. It can use
|
|
the following variables:

</p>
|

<dl compact="compact">

<dd><p>current timestamp of each stream

|
<p>The default value is <code>t1-t2</code>, which means to always forward the stream

|
that has a smaller timestamp.

<h3 class="subsection"><a href="ffplay.html#toc-Mixing-examples">14.10.1 Mixing examples</a></h3>
|

|
<p>For example, if you want to down-mix from stereo to mono, but with a bigger
|
|
factor for the left channel:
|
|
</p><table><tr><td> </td><td><pre class="example">pan=1:c0=0.9*c0+0.1*c1

</pre></td></tr></table>
|
|
|

<p>Note that <code>ffmpeg</code> integrates a default down-mix (and up-mix) system

|
|
<h3 class="subsection"><a href="ffplay.html#toc-Remapping-examples">14.10.2 Remapping examples</a></h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>The channel remapping will be effective if, and only if:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li> gain coefficients are zeroes or ones,
|
|
</li><li> only one input per channel output,
|
|
</li><li> the number of output channels is supported by libswresample (16 at the
|
|
moment)
|
|
</li></ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>If all these conditions are satisfied, the filter will notify the user ("Pure
|
|
channel mapping detected"), and use an optimized and lossless method to do the
|
|
remapping.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>For example, if you have a 5.1 source and want a stereo audio stream by
|
|
dropping the extra channels:
|
|
</p><table><tr><td> </td><td><pre class="example">pan="stereo: c0=FL : c1=FR"
|
|
</pre></td></tr></table>
|
|
|
|
<p>Given the same source, you can also switch front left and front right channels
|
|
and keep the input channel layout:
|
|
</p><table><tr><td> </td><td><pre class="example">pan="5.1: c0=c1 : c1=c0 : c2=c2 : c3=c3 : c4=c4 : c5=c5"
|
|
</pre></td></tr></table>
|
|
|
|
<p>If the input is a stereo audio stream, you can mute the front left channel (and
|
|
still keep the stereo channel layout) with:
|
|
</p><table><tr><td> </td><td><pre class="example">pan="stereo:c1=c1"
|
|
</pre></td></tr></table>
|
|
|
|
<p>Still with a stereo audio stream input, you can copy the right channel in both
|
|
front left and right:
|
|
</p><table><tr><td> </td><td><pre class="example">pan="stereo: c0=FR : c1=FR"

<p>Transform the field order of the input video.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>It accepts one parameter which specifies the required field order that
|
|
the input interlaced video will be transformed to. The parameter can
|
|
assume one of the following values:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<dl compact="compact">
|
|
<dt> ‘<samp>0 or bff</samp>’</dt>
|
|
<dd><p>output bottom field first

<dt> ‘<samp>1 or tff</samp>’</dt>

<dd><p>output top field first
|
|
</p></dd>
|
|
</dl>
|
|
|
|
<p>Default value is "tff".
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Transformation is achieved by shifting the picture content up or down
|
|
by one line, and filling the remaining line with appropriate picture content.
|
|
This method is consistent with most broadcast field order converters.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>If the input video is not flagged as being interlaced, or it is already
|
|
flagged as being of the required output field order then this filter does
|
|
not alter the incoming video.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>This filter is very useful when converting to or from PAL DV material,
|
|
which is bottom field first.

is searched in each one of the directories specified by the colon

<p>Fix the banding artifacts that are sometimes introduced into nearly flat

Interpolate the gradients that should go where the bands are, and

dither them.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>This filter is designed for playback only. Do not use it prior to

lossy compression, because compression tends to lose the dither and

bring back the bands.

<p>The filter takes two optional parameters, separated by ’:’:
|

<var>strength</var>:<var>radius</var>

</p>
|
|
<p><var>strength</var> is the maximum amount by which the filter will change

any one pixel. Also the threshold for detecting nearly flat

regions. Acceptable values range from .51 to 255, default value is

|
1.2, out-of-range values will be clipped to the valid range.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p><var>radius</var> is the neighborhood to fit the gradient to. A larger
|
|
radius makes for smoother gradients, but also prevents the filter from

modifying the pixels near detailed regions. Acceptable values are

8-32, default value is 16, out-of-range values will be clipped to the

valid range.

<p>Apply an MPlayer filter to the input video.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>This filter provides a wrapper around most of the filters of
|
|
MPlayer/MEncoder.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>This wrapper is considered experimental. Some of the wrapped filters
|
|
may not work properly and we may drop support for them, as they will
|
|
be implemented natively into FFmpeg. Thus you should avoid
|
|
depending on them when writing portable scripts.
|

</p>
|

<p>The filters accepts the parameters:
|
|
<var>filter_name</var>[:=]<var>filter_params</var>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p><var>filter_name</var> is the name of a supported MPlayer filter,
|
|
<var>filter_params</var> is a string containing the parameters accepted by

|
the named filter.

<p>It accepts the parameters: <var>struct_el</var>:<var>nb_iterations</var>.
|
|
</p>
|

Ratio, according to the following equation:
|
|
<em>DAR = HORIZONTAL_RESOLUTION / VERTICAL_RESOLUTION * SAR</em>
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Keep in mind that this filter does not modify the pixel dimensions of

the video frame. Also the display aspect ratio set by this filter may

|
be changed by later filters in the filterchain, e.g. in case of
|
|
scaling or if another "setdar" or a "setsar" filter is applied.
|
|
</p>
|

<p>The filter accepts a parameter string which represents the wanted

display aspect ratio.
|

The parameter can be a floating point number string, or an expression

of the form <var>num</var>:<var>den</var>, where <var>num</var> and <var>den</var> are the
|
|
numerator and denominator of the aspect ratio.

If the parameter is not specified, it is assumed the value "0:1".

<p>For example to change the display aspect ratio to 16:9, specify:

</p>
|

<p>This source is based on a generalization of John Conway’s life game.
|

</p>
|
|
<p>The sourced input represents a life grid, each pixel represents a cell
|
|
which can be in one of two possible states, alive or dead. Every cell
|
|
interacts with its eight neighbours, which are the cells that are
|
|
horizontally, vertically, or diagonally adjacent.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>At each interaction the grid evolves according to the adopted rule,
|
|
which specifies the number of neighbor alive cells which will make a
|
|
cell stay alive or born. The ‘<samp>rule</samp>’ option allows to specify
|
|
the rule to adopt.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>This source accepts a list of options in the form of
|
|
<var>key</var>=<var>value</var> pairs separated by ":". A description of the

accepted options follows.

floating point number value ranging from 0 to 1, defaults to 1/PHI.
|

<dt> ‘<samp>random_seed, seed</samp>’</dt>
|
|
<dd><p>Set the seed for filling the initial random grid, must be an integer

<dt> ‘<samp>rule</samp>’</dt>

<dd><p>Set the life rule.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>A rule can be specified with a code of the kind "S<var>NS</var>/B<var>NB</var>",
|
|
where <var>NS</var> and <var>NB</var> are sequences of numbers in the range 0-8,
|
|
<var>NS</var> specifies the number of alive neighbor cells which make a
|
|
live cell stay alive, and <var>NB</var> the number of alive neighbor cells
|
|
which make a dead cell to become alive (i.e. to "born").
|
|
"s" and "b" can be used in place of "S" and "B", respectively.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Alternatively a rule can be specified by an 18-bits integer. The 9
|
|
high order bits are used to encode the next cell state if it is alive
|
|
for each number of neighbor alive cells, the low order bits specify
|
|
the rule for "borning" new cells. Higher order bits encode for an
|
|
higher number of neighbor cells.
|
|
For example the number 6153 = <code>(12<<9)+9</code> specifies a stay alive
|
|
rule of 12 and a born rule of 9, which corresponds to "S23/B03".
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Default value is "S23/B3", which is the original Conway’s game of life
|
|
rule, and will keep a cell alive if it has 2 or 3 neighbor alive
|
|
cells, and will born a new cell if there are three alive cells around
|
|
a dead cell.
