NAME

       ffplay - FFplay media player

SYNOPSIS

       ffplay [options] [input_url]

DESCRIPTION

       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.

OPTIONS

       All the numerical options, if not specified otherwise, accept a string representing a
       number as input, which may be followed by one of the SI unit prefixes, for example: 'K',
       'M', or 'G'.

       If 'i' is appended to the SI unit prefix, the complete prefix will be interpreted as a
       unit prefix for binary multiples, which are based on powers of 1024 instead of powers of
       1000. Appending 'B' to the SI unit prefix multiplies the value by 8. This allows using,
       for example: 'KB', 'MiB', 'G' and 'B' as number suffixes.

       Options which do not take arguments are boolean options, and set the corresponding value
       to true. They can be set to false by prefixing the option name with "no". For example
       using "-nofoo" will set the boolean option with name "foo" to false.

   Stream specifiers
       Some options are applied per-stream, e.g. bitrate or codec. Stream specifiers are used to
       precisely specify which stream(s) a given option belongs to.

       A stream specifier is a string generally appended to the option name and separated from it
       by a colon. E.g. "-codec:a:1 ac3" contains the "a:1" stream specifier, which matches the
       second audio stream. Therefore, it would select the ac3 codec for the second audio stream.

       A stream specifier can match several streams, so that the option is applied to all of
       them. E.g. the stream specifier in "-b:a 128k" matches all audio streams.

       An empty stream specifier matches all streams. For example, "-codec copy" or "-codec:
       copy" would copy all the streams without reencoding.

       Possible forms of stream specifiers are:

       stream_index
           Matches the stream with this index. E.g. "-threads:1 4" would set the thread count for
           the second stream to 4.

       stream_type[:stream_index]
           stream_type is one of following: 'v' or 'V' for video, 'a' for audio, 's' for
           subtitle, 'd' for data, and 't' for attachments. 'v' matches all video streams, 'V'
           only matches video streams which are not attached pictures, video thumbnails or cover
           arts.  If stream_index is given, then it matches stream number stream_index of this
           type. Otherwise, it matches all streams of this type.

       p:program_id[:stream_index]
           If stream_index is given, then it matches the stream with number stream_index in the
           program with the id program_id. Otherwise, it matches all streams in the program.

       #stream_id or i:stream_id
           Match the stream by stream id (e.g. PID in MPEG-TS container).

       m:key[:value]
           Matches streams with the metadata tag key having the specified value. If value is not
           given, matches streams that contain the given tag with any value.

       u   Matches streams with usable configuration, the codec must be defined and the essential
           information such as video dimension or audio sample rate must be present.

           Note that in ffmpeg, matching by metadata will only work properly for input files.

           assumed to be always complete.

                   ffmpeg -sources pulse,server=192.168.0.4

       -sinks device[,opt1=val1[,opt2=val2]...]
           Show autodetected sinks of the output device.  Some devices may provide system-
           dependent sink names that cannot be autodetected.  The returned list cannot be assumed
           to be always complete.

                   ffmpeg -sinks pulse,server=192.168.0.4

       -loglevel [repeat+]loglevel | -v [repeat+]loglevel
           Set the logging level used by the library.  Adding "repeat+" indicates that repeated
           log output should not be compressed to the first line and the "Last message repeated n
           times" line will be omitted. "repeat" can also be used alone.  If "repeat" is used
           alone, and with no prior loglevel set, the default loglevel will be used. If multiple
           loglevel parameters are given, using 'repeat' will not change the loglevel.  loglevel
           is a string or a number containing one of the following values:

           quiet, -8
               Show nothing at all; be silent.

           panic, 0
               Only show fatal errors which could lead the process to crash, such as an assertion
               failure. This is not currently used for anything.

           fatal, 8
               Only show fatal errors. These are errors after which the process absolutely cannot
               continue.

           error, 16
               Show all errors, including ones which can be recovered from.

           warning, 24
               Show all warnings and errors. Any message related to possibly incorrect or
               unexpected events will be shown.

           info, 32
               Show informative messages during processing. This is in addition to warnings and
               errors. This is the default value.

           verbose, 40
               Same as "info", except more verbose.

           debug, 48
               Show everything, including debugging information.

           trace, 56

           By default the program logs to stderr. If coloring is supported by the terminal,
           colors are used to mark errors and warnings. Log coloring can be disabled setting the
           environment variable AV_LOG_FORCE_NOCOLOR or NO_COLOR, or can be forced setting the
           environment variable AV_LOG_FORCE_COLOR.  The use of the environment variable NO_COLOR
           is deprecated and will be dropped in a future FFmpeg version.

       -report
           Dump full command line and console output to a file named
           "program-YYYYMMDD-HHMMSS.log" in the current directory.  This file can be useful for
           bug reports.  It also implies "-loglevel verbose".

           Setting the environment variable FFREPORT to any value has the same effect. If the
           value is a ':'-separated key=value sequence, these options will affect the report;
           option values must be escaped if they contain special characters or the options
           delimiter ':' (see the ``Quoting and escaping'' section in the ffmpeg-utils manual).

           The following options are recognized:

           file
               set the file name to use for the report; %p is expanded to the name of the
               program, %t is expanded to a timestamp, "%%" is expanded to a plain "%"

           level
               set the log verbosity level using a numerical value (see "-loglevel").

           For example, to output a report to a file named ffreport.log using a log level of 32
           (alias for log level "info"):

                   FFREPORT=file=ffreport.log:level=32 ffmpeg -i input output

           Errors in parsing the environment variable are not fatal, and will not appear in the
           report.

       -hide_banner
           Suppress printing banner.

           All FFmpeg tools will normally show a copyright notice, build options and library
           versions. This option can be used to suppress printing this information.

       -cpuflags flags (global)
           Allows setting and clearing cpu flags. This option is intended for testing. Do not use
           it unless you know what you're doing.

                   ffmpeg -cpuflags -sse+mmx ...
                   ffmpeg -cpuflags mmx ...
                   ffmpeg -cpuflags 0 ...

           Possible flags for this option are:

       -opencl_bench
           This option is used to benchmark all available OpenCL devices and print the results.
           This option is only available when FFmpeg has been compiled with "--enable-opencl".

           When FFmpeg is configured with "--enable-opencl", the options for the global OpenCL
           context are set via -opencl_options. See the "OpenCL Options" section in the ffmpeg-
           utils manual for the complete list of supported options. Amongst others, these options
           include the ability to select a specific platform and device to run the OpenCL code
           on. By default, FFmpeg will run on the first device of the first platform. While the
           options for the global OpenCL context provide flexibility to the user in selecting the
           OpenCL device of their choice, most users would probably want to select the fastest
           OpenCL device for their system.

           This option assists the selection of the most efficient configuration by identifying
           the appropriate device for the user's system. The built-in benchmark is run on all the
           OpenCL devices and the performance is measured for each device. The devices in the
           results list are sorted based on their performance with the fastest device listed
           first. The user can subsequently invoke ffmpeg using the device deemed most
           appropriate via -opencl_options to obtain the best performance for the OpenCL
           accelerated code.

           Typical usage to use the fastest OpenCL device involve the following steps.

           Run the command:

                   ffmpeg -opencl_bench

           Note down the platform ID (pidx) and device ID (didx) of the first i.e. fastest device
           in the list.  Select the platform and device using the command:

                   ffmpeg -opencl_options platform_idx=<pidx>:device_idx=<didx> ...

       -opencl_options options (global)
           Set OpenCL environment options. This option is only available when FFmpeg has been
           compiled with "--enable-opencl".

           options must be a list of key=value option pairs separated by ':'. See the ``OpenCL
           Options'' section in the ffmpeg-utils manual for the list of supported options.

   AVOptions
       These options are provided directly by the libavformat, libavdevice and libavcodec
       libraries. To see the list of available AVOptions, use the -help option. They are
       separated into two categories:

       generic
           These options can be set for any container, codec or device. Generic options are
           listed under AVFormatContext options for containers/devices and under AVCodecContext
           options for codecs.

       private
           These options are specific to the given container, device or codec. Private options
           are listed under their corresponding containers/devices/codecs.

       For example to write an ID3v2.3 header instead of a default ID3v2.4 to an MP3 file, use
       the id3v2_version private option of the MP3 muxer:

               ffmpeg -i input.flac -id3v2_version 3 out.mp3

       All codec AVOptions are per-stream, and thus a stream specifier should be attached to
       them.

       Note: the -nooption syntax cannot be used for boolean AVOptions, use -option 0/-option 1.

       Note: the old undocumented way of specifying per-stream AVOptions by prepending v/a/s to
       the options name is now obsolete and will be removed soon.

   Main options
       -x width
           Force displayed width.

       -y height
           Force displayed height.

       -s size
           Set frame size (WxH or abbreviation), needed for videos which do not contain a header
           with the frame size like raw YUV.  This option has been deprecated in favor of private
           options, try -video_size.

       -fs Start in fullscreen mode.

       -an Disable audio.

       -vn Disable video.

       -sn Disable subtitles.

       -ss pos
           Seek to pos. Note that in most formats it is not possible to seek exactly, so ffplay
           will seek to the nearest seek point to pos.

           pos must be a time duration specification, see the Time duration section in the
           ffmpeg-utils(1) manual.

       -t duration
           Play duration seconds of audio/video.

           duration must be a time duration specification, see the Time duration section in the
           ffmpeg-utils(1) manual.

       -bytes
           Seek by bytes.

       -nodisp
           Disable graphical display.

       -noborder
           Borderless window.

       -volume
           Set the startup volume. 0 means silence, 100 means no volume reduction or
           amplification. Negative values are treated as 0, values above 100 are treated as 100.

       -f fmt
           Force format.

       -window_title title
           Set window title (default is the input filename).

       -loop number
           Loops movie playback <number> times. 0 means forever.

       -showmode mode
           Set the show mode to use.  Available values for mode are:

           0, video
               show video

           1, waves
               show audio waves

           2, rdft
               show audio frequency band using RDFT ((Inverse) Real Discrete Fourier Transform)

           Default value is "video", if video is not present or cannot be played "rdft" is
           automatically selected.

           You can interactively cycle through the available show modes by pressing the key w.

       -vf filtergraph
           Create the filtergraph specified by filtergraph and use it to filter the video stream.

           filtergraph is a description of the filtergraph to apply to the stream, and must have
           a single video input and a single video output. In the filtergraph, the input is
           associated to the label "in", and the output to the label "out". See the ffmpeg-
           filters manual for more information about the filtergraph syntax.

           You can specify this parameter multiple times and cycle through the specified
           filtergraphs along with the show modes by pressing the key w.

       -af filtergraph
           filtergraph is a description of the filtergraph to apply to the input audio.  Use the
           option "-filters" to show all the available filters (including sources and sinks).

       -i input_url
           Read input_url.

   Advanced options
       -pix_fmt format
           Set pixel format.  This option has been deprecated in favor of private options, try
           -pixel_format.

       -stats
           Print several playback statistics, in particular show the stream duration, the codec
           parameters, the current position in the stream and the audio/video synchronisation
           drift. It is on by default, to explicitly disable it you need to specify "-nostats".

       -fast
           Non-spec-compliant optimizations.

       -genpts
           Generate pts.

       -sync type
           Set the master clock to audio ("type=audio"), video ("type=video") or external
           ("type=ext"). Default is audio. The master clock is used to control audio-video
           synchronization. Most media players use audio as master clock, but in some cases
           (streaming or high quality broadcast) it is necessary to change that. This option is
           mainly used for debugging purposes.

       -ast audio_stream_specifier
           Select the desired audio stream using the given stream specifier. The stream
           specifiers are described in the Stream specifiers chapter. If this option is not
           specified, the "best" audio stream is selected in the program of the already selected
           video stream.

       -vst video_stream_specifier
           Select the desired video stream using the given stream specifier. The stream
           specifiers are described in the Stream specifiers chapter. If this option is not
           specified, the "best" video stream is selected.

       -sst subtitle_stream_specifier
           Select the desired subtitle stream using the given stream specifier. The stream
           specifiers are described in the Stream specifiers chapter. If this option is not
           specified, the "best" subtitle stream is selected in the program of the already
           selected video or audio stream.

       -autoexit
           Exit when video is done playing.

       -exitonkeydown
           Exit if any key is pressed.

       -exitonmousedown
           Exit if any mouse button is pressed.

SYNTAX

       This section documents the syntax and formats employed by the FFmpeg libraries and tools.

   Quoting and escaping
       FFmpeg adopts the following quoting and escaping mechanism, unless explicitly specified.
       The following rules are applied:

       •   ' and \ are special characters (respectively used for quoting and escaping). In
           addition to them, there might be other special characters depending on the specific
           syntax where the escaping and quoting are employed.

       •   A special character is escaped by prefixing it with a \.

       •   All characters enclosed between '' are included literally in the parsed string. The
           quote character ' itself cannot be quoted, so you may need to close the quote and
           escape it.

       •   Leading and trailing whitespaces, unless escaped or quoted, are removed from the
           parsed string.

       Note that you may need to add a second level of escaping when using the command line or a
       script, which depends on the syntax of the adopted shell language.

       The function "av_get_token" defined in libavutil/avstring.h can be used to parse a token
       quoted or escaped according to the rules defined above.

       The tool tools/ffescape in the FFmpeg source tree can be used to automatically quote or
       escape a string in a script.

       Examples

       •   Escape the string "Crime d'Amour" containing the "'" special character:

                   Crime d\'Amour

       •   The string above contains a quote, so the "'" needs to be escaped when quoting it:

                   'Crime d'\''Amour'

       •   Include leading or trailing whitespaces using quoting:

                   '  this string starts and ends with whitespaces  '

       •   Escaping and quoting can be mixed together:

                   ' The string '\'string\'' is a string '

       •   To include a literal \ you can use either escaping or quoting:

                   'c:\foo' can be written as c:\\foo

   Date
       The accepted syntax is:

               [(YYYY-MM-DD|YYYYMMDD)[T|t| ]]((HH:MM:SS[.m...]]])|(HHMMSS[.m...]]]))[Z]
               now

       If the value is "now" it takes the current time.

       Time is local time unless Z is appended, in which case it is interpreted as UTC.  If the
       year-month-day part is not specified it takes the current year-month-day.

   Time duration
       There are two accepted syntaxes for expressing time duration.

               [-][<HH>:]<MM>:<SS>[.<m>...]

       HH expresses the number of hours, MM the number of minutes for a maximum of 2 digits, and
       SS the number of seconds for a maximum of 2 digits. The m at the end expresses decimal
       value for SS.

       or

               [-]<S>+[.<m>...]

       S expresses the number of seconds, with the optional decimal part m.

       In both expressions, the optional - indicates negative duration.

       Examples

       The following examples are all valid time duration:

       55  55 seconds

       12:03:45
           12 hours, 03 minutes and 45 seconds

       23.189
           23.189 seconds

   Video size

       name of a size abbreviation.

   Video rate
       Specify the frame rate of a video, expressed as the number of frames generated per second.
       It has to be a string in the format frame_rate_num/frame_rate_den, an integer number, a
       float number or a valid video frame rate abbreviation.

       The following abbreviations are recognized:

       ntsc

   Ratio
       A ratio can be expressed as an expression, or in the form numerator:denominator.

       Note that a ratio with infinite (1/0) or negative value is considered valid, so you should
       check on the returned value if you want to exclude those values.

       The undefined value can be expressed using the "0:0" string.

   Color
       It can be the name of a color as defined below (case insensitive match) or a
       "[0x|#]RRGGBB[AA]" sequence, possibly followed by @ and a string representing the alpha
       component.

       The alpha component may be a string composed by "0x" followed by an hexadecimal number or
       a decimal number between 0.0 and 1.0, which represents the opacity value (0x00 or 0.0
       means completely transparent, 0xff or 1.0 completely opaque). If the alpha component is
       not specified then 0xff is assumed.

       The string random will result in a random color.

       The following names of colors are recognized:

   Channel Layout
       A channel layout specifies the spatial disposition of the channels in a multi-channel
       audio stream. To specify a channel layout, FFmpeg makes use of a special syntax.

       Individual channels are identified by an id, as given by the table below:

       FL  front left

       FR  front right

       FC  front center

       LFE low frequency

       BL  back left

       BR  back right

       FLC front left-of-center

       FRC front right-of-center

       BC  back center

       SL  side left

       SR  side right

       TC  top center

       TFL top front left

       TFC top front center

       TFR top front right

       TBL top back left

       TBC top back center

       TBR top back right

       DL  downmix left

       DR  downmix right

       WL  wide left

       WR  wide right

       SDL surround direct left

       SDR surround direct right

       LFE2
           low frequency 2

       Standard channel layout compositions can be specified by using the following identifiers:

       mono
           FC

       downmix
           DL+DR

       A custom channel layout can be specified as a sequence of terms, separated by '+' or '|'.
       Each term can be:

       •   the name of a standard channel layout (e.g. mono, stereo, 4.0, quad, 5.0, etc.)

       •   the name of a single channel (e.g. FL, FR, FC, LFE, etc.)

       •   a number of channels, in decimal, followed by 'c', yielding the default channel layout
           for that number of channels (see the function "av_get_default_channel_layout"). Note
           that not all channel counts have a default layout.

       •   a number of channels, in decimal, followed by 'C', yielding an unknown channel layout
           with the specified number of channels. Note that not all channel layout specification
           strings support unknown channel layouts.

       •   a channel layout mask, in hexadecimal starting with "0x" (see the "AV_CH_*" macros in
           libavutil/channel_layout.h.

       Before libavutil version 53 the trailing character "c" to specify a number of channels was
       optional, but now it is required, while a channel layout mask can also be specified as a
       decimal number (if and only if not followed by "c" or "C").

       See also the function "av_get_channel_layout" defined in libavutil/channel_layout.h.

EXPRESSION EVALUATION

       When evaluating an arithmetic expression, FFmpeg uses an internal formula evaluator,
       implemented through the libavutil/eval.h interface.

       An expression may contain unary, binary operators, constants, and functions.

       Two expressions expr1 and expr2 can be combined to form another expression "expr1;expr2".
       expr1 and expr2 are evaluated in turn, and the new expression evaluates to the value of
       expr2.

       The following binary operators are available: "+", "-", "*", "/", "^".

       The following unary operators are available: "+", "-".

       The following functions are available:

       abs(x)
           Compute absolute value of x.

       acos(x)
           Compute arccosine of x.

       asin(x)
           Compute arcsine of x.

       atan(x)
           Compute arctangent of x.

       atan2(x, y)
           Compute principal value of the arc tangent of y/x.

       between(x, min, max)
           Return 1 if x is greater than or equal to min and lesser than or equal to max, 0
           otherwise.

       bitand(x, y)
       bitor(x, y)
           Compute bitwise and/or operation on x and y.

           The results of the evaluation of x and y are converted to integers before executing
           the bitwise operation.

           Note that both the conversion to integer and the conversion back to floating point can
           lose precision. Beware of unexpected results for large numbers (usually 2^53 and
           larger).

       ceil(expr)
           Round the value of expression expr upwards to the nearest integer. For example,
           "ceil(1.5)" is "2.0".

       clip(x, min, max)
           Return the value of x clipped between min and max.

       cos(x)
           Compute cosine of x.

       cosh(x)
           Compute hyperbolic cosine of x.

       eq(x, y)
           Return 1 if x and y are equivalent, 0 otherwise.

       exp(x)
           Compute exponential of x (with base "e", the Euler's number).

       floor(expr)
           Round the value of expression expr downwards to the nearest integer. For example,
           "floor(-1.5)" is "-2.0".

       gauss(x)
           Compute Gauss function of x, corresponding to "exp(-x*x/2) / sqrt(2*PI)".

       gcd(x, y)
           Return the greatest common divisor of x and y. If both x and y are 0 or either or both
           are less than zero then behavior is undefined.

       gt(x, y)
           Return 1 if x is greater than y, 0 otherwise.

       gte(x, y)
           Return 1 if x is greater than or equal to y, 0 otherwise.

       hypot(x, y)
           This function is similar to the C function with the same name; it returns "sqrt(x*x +
           y*y)", the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle with sides of length x and y,
           or the distance of the point (x, y) from the origin.

       if(x, y)
           Evaluate x, and if the result is non-zero return the result of the evaluation of y,
           return 0 otherwise.

       if(x, y, z)
           Evaluate x, and if the result is non-zero return the evaluation result of y, otherwise
           the evaluation result of z.

       ifnot(x, y)
           Evaluate x, and if the result is zero return the result of the evaluation of y, return
           0 otherwise.

       ifnot(x, y, z)
           Evaluate x, and if the result is zero return the evaluation result of y, otherwise the
           evaluation result of z.

       isinf(x)
           Return 1.0 if x is +/-INFINITY, 0.0 otherwise.

       isnan(x)
           Return 1.0 if x is NAN, 0.0 otherwise.

       ld(var)
           Load the value of the internal variable with number var, which was previously stored
           with st(var, expr).  The function returns the loaded value.

           Return linear interpolation between x and y by amount of z.

       log(x)
           Compute natural logarithm of x.

           Return the minimum between x and y.

       mod(x, y)
           Compute the remainder of division of x by y.

       not(expr)
           Return 1.0 if expr is zero, 0.0 otherwise.

       pow(x, y)
           Compute the power of x elevated y, it is equivalent to "(x)^(y)".

       print(t)
       print(t, l)
           Print the value of expression t with loglevel l. If l is not specified then a default
           log level is used.  Returns the value of the expression printed.

           Prints t with loglevel l

       random(x)
           Return a pseudo random value between 0.0 and 1.0. x is the index of the internal
           variable which will be used to save the seed/state.

       root(expr, max)
           Find an input value for which the function represented by expr with argument ld(0) is
           0 in the interval 0..max.

           The expression in expr must denote a continuous function or the result is undefined.

           ld(0) is used to represent the function input value, which means that the given
           expression will be evaluated multiple times with various input values that the
           expression can access through ld(0). When the expression evaluates to 0 then the
           corresponding input value will be returned.

       round(expr)
           Round the value of expression expr to the nearest integer. For example, "round(1.5)"
           is "2.0".

       sin(x)
           Compute sine of x.

       sinh(x)
           Compute hyperbolic sine of x.

       sqrt(expr)
           Compute the square root of expr. This is equivalent to "(expr)^.5".

       squish(x)
           Compute expression "1/(1 + exp(4*x))".

       st(var, expr)
           Store the value of the expression expr in an internal variable. var specifies the
           number of the variable where to store the value, and it is a value ranging from 0 to
           9. The function returns the value stored in the internal variable.  Note, Variables
           are currently not shared between expressions.

       tan(x)
           Compute tangent of x.

       tanh(x)
           Compute hyperbolic tangent of x.

       taylor(expr, x)
       taylor(expr, x, id)
           Evaluate a Taylor series at x, given an expression representing the "ld(id)"-th
           derivative of a function at 0.

           When the series does not converge the result is undefined.

           ld(id) is used to represent the derivative order in expr, which means that the given
           expression will be evaluated multiple times with various input values that the
           expression can access through "ld(id)". If id is not specified then 0 is assumed.

           Note, when you have the derivatives at y instead of 0, "taylor(expr, x-y)" can be
           used.

       time(0)
           Return the current (wallclock) time in seconds.

       trunc(expr)
           Round the value of expression expr towards zero to the nearest integer. For example,
           "trunc(-1.5)" is "-1.0".

       while(cond, expr)
           Evaluate expression expr while the expression cond is non-zero, and returns the value
           of the last expr evaluation, or NAN if cond was always false.

       The following constants are available:

       PI  area of the unit disc, approximately 3.14

       E   exp(1) (Euler's number), approximately 2.718

       PHI golden ratio (1+sqrt(5))/2, approximately 1.618

       Assuming that an expression is considered "true" if it has a non-zero value, note that:

       "*" works like AND

       "+" works like OR

       For example the construct:

               if (A AND B) then C

       is equivalent to:

               if(A*B, C)

       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.

       The evaluator also recognizes the International System unit prefixes.  If 'i' is appended
       after the prefix, binary prefixes are used, which are based on powers of 1024 instead of
       powers of 1000.  The 'B' postfix multiplies the value by 8, and can be appended after a
       unit prefix or used alone. This allows using for example 'KB', 'MiB', 'G' and 'B' as
       number postfix.

       The list of available International System prefixes follows, with indication of the
       corresponding powers of 10 and of 2.

OPENCL OPTIONS

       When FFmpeg is configured with "--enable-opencl", it is possible to set the options for
       the global OpenCL context.

       The list of supported options follows:

       build_options
           Set build options used to compile the registered kernels.

           See reference "OpenCL Specification Version: 1.2 chapter 5.6.4".

       platform_idx
           Select the index of the platform to run OpenCL code.

           The specified index must be one of the indexes in the device list which can be
           obtained with "ffmpeg -opencl_bench" or "av_opencl_get_device_list()".

       device_idx
           Select the index of the device used to run OpenCL code.

           The specified index must be one of the indexes in the device list which can be
           obtained with "ffmpeg -opencl_bench" or "av_opencl_get_device_list()".

CODEC OPTIONS

       libavcodec provides some generic global options, which can be set on all the encoders and
       decoders. In addition each codec may support so-called private options, which are specific
       for a given codec.

       Sometimes, a global option may only affect a specific kind of codec, and may be
       nonsensical or ignored by another, so you need to be aware of the meaning of the specified
       options. Also some options are meant only for decoding or encoding.

       Options may be set by specifying -option value in the FFmpeg tools, or by setting the
       value explicitly in the "AVCodecContext" options or using the libavutil/opt.h API for
       programmatic use.

       The list of supported options follow:

       b integer (encoding,audio,video)
           Set bitrate in bits/s. Default value is 200K.

       ab integer (encoding,audio)
           Set audio bitrate (in bits/s). Default value is 128K.

       bt integer (encoding,video)
           Set video bitrate tolerance (in bits/s). In 1-pass mode, bitrate tolerance specifies
           how far ratecontrol is willing to deviate from the target average bitrate value. This
           is not related to min/max bitrate. Lowering tolerance too much has an adverse effect
           on quality.

       flags flags (decoding/encoding,audio,video,subtitles)
           Set generic flags.

           Possible values:

           mv4 Use four motion vector by macroblock (mpeg4).

           qpel
               Use 1/4 pel motion compensation.

           loop
               Use loop filter.

           qscale
               Use fixed qscale.

           gmc Use gmc.

           mv0 Always try a mb with mv=<0,0>.

           input_preserved
           pass1
               Use internal 2pass ratecontrol in first pass mode.

           pass2
               Use internal 2pass ratecontrol in second pass mode.

           gray
               Only decode/encode grayscale.

               Do not draw edges.

           psnr
               Set error[?] variables during encoding.

           truncated
           naq Normalize adaptive quantization.

           ildct
               Use interlaced DCT.

           low_delay
               Force low delay.

           global_header
               Place global headers in extradata instead of every keyframe.

           bitexact
               Only write platform-, build- and time-independent data. (except (I)DCT).  This
               ensures that file and data checksums are reproducible and match between platforms.
               Its primary use is for regression testing.

           aic Apply H263 advanced intra coding / mpeg4 ac prediction.

           cbp Deprecated, use mpegvideo private options instead.

           qprd
               Deprecated, use mpegvideo private options instead.

           ilme
               Apply interlaced motion estimation.

           cgop
               Use closed gop.

       me_method integer (encoding,video)

       extradata_size integer
           Set extradata size.

       time_base rational number
           Set codec time base.

           It is the fundamental unit of time (in seconds) in terms of which frame timestamps are
           represented. For fixed-fps content, timebase should be "1 / frame_rate" and timestamp
           increments should be identically 1.

       g integer (encoding,video)
           Set the group of picture (GOP) size. Default value is 12.

       ar integer (decoding/encoding,audio)
           Set audio sampling rate (in Hz).

       thread_type flags (decoding/encoding,video)
           Select which multithreading methods to use.

           Use of frame will increase decoding delay by one frame per thread, so clients which
           cannot provide future frames should not use it.

           Possible values:

           slice
               Decode more than one part of a single frame at once.

               Multithreading using slices works only when the video was encoded with slices.

           bb  Interlaced video, bottom field coded and displayed first

           tb  Interlaced video, top coded first, bottom displayed first

           bt  Interlaced video, bottom coded first, top displayed first

       skip_alpha bool (decoding,video)
           Set to 1 to disable processing alpha (transparency). This works like the gray flag in
           the flags option which skips chroma information instead of alpha. Default is 0.

       codec_whitelist list (input)
           "," separated list of allowed decoders. By default all are allowed.

       dump_separator string (input)

                                             "  -i ~/videos/matrixbench_mpeg2.mpg

       max_pixels integer (decoding/encoding,video)
           Maximum number of pixels per image. This value can be used to avoid out of memory
           failures due to large images.

       apply_cropping bool (decoding,video)
           Enable cropping if cropping parameters are multiples of the required alignment for the
           left and top parameters. If the alignment is not met the cropping will be partially
           applied to maintain alignment.  Default is 1 (enabled).  Note: The required alignment
           depends on if "AV_CODEC_FLAG_UNALIGNED" is set and the CPU. "AV_CODEC_FLAG_UNALIGNED"
           cannot be changed from the command line. Also hardware decoders will not apply
           left/top Cropping.

DECODERS

       Decoders are configured elements in FFmpeg which allow the decoding of multimedia streams.

       When you configure your FFmpeg build, all the supported native decoders are enabled by
       default. Decoders requiring an external library must be enabled manually via the
       corresponding "--enable-lib" option. You can list all available decoders using the
       configure option "--list-decoders".

       You can disable all the decoders with the configure option "--disable-decoders" and
       selectively enable / disable single decoders with the options "--enable-decoder=DECODER" /
       "--disable-decoder=DECODER".

       The option "-decoders" of the ff* tools will display the list of enabled decoders.

VIDEO DECODERS

       A description of some of the currently available video decoders follows.

   hevc
       HEVC / H.265 decoder.

       Note: the skip_loop_filter option has effect only at level "all".

   rawvideo
       Raw video decoder.

       This decoder decodes rawvideo streams.

       Options

       top top_field_first
           Specify the assumed field type of the input video.

           -1  the video is assumed to be progressive (default)

           0   bottom-field-first is assumed

           1   top-field-first is assumed

AUDIO DECODERS

       A description of some of the currently available audio decoders follows.

   ac3
       AC-3 audio decoder.

       This decoder implements part of ATSC A/52:2010 and ETSI TS 102 366, as well as the
       undocumented RealAudio 3 (a.k.a. dnet).

       AC-3 Decoder Options

       -drc_scale value
           Dynamic Range Scale Factor. The factor to apply to dynamic range values from the AC-3
           stream. This factor is applied exponentially.  There are 3 notable scale factor
           ranges:

           drc_scale == 0
               DRC disabled. Produces full range audio.

           0 < drc_scale <= 1
               DRC enabled.  Applies a fraction of the stream DRC value.  Audio reproduction is
               between full range and full compression.

           drc_scale > 1
               DRC enabled. Applies drc_scale asymmetrically.  Loud sounds are fully compressed.
               Soft sounds are enhanced.

   flac
       FLAC audio decoder.

       This decoder aims to implement the complete FLAC specification from Xiph.

       FLAC Decoder options

       -use_buggy_lpc
           The lavc FLAC encoder used to produce buggy streams with high lpc values (like the
           default value). This option makes it possible to decode such streams correctly by
           using lavc's old buggy lpc logic for decoding.

   ffwavesynth
       Internal wave synthesizer.

       This decoder generates wave patterns according to predefined sequences. Its use is purely
       internal and the format of the data it accepts is not publicly documented.

   libcelt
       libcelt decoder wrapper.

       libcelt allows libavcodec to decode the Xiph CELT ultra-low delay audio codec.  Requires
       the presence of the libcelt headers and library during configuration.  You need to
       explicitly configure the build with "--enable-libcelt".

   libgsm
       libgsm decoder wrapper.

       libgsm allows libavcodec to decode the GSM full rate audio codec. Requires the presence of
       the libgsm headers and library during configuration. You need to explicitly configure the
       build with "--enable-libgsm".

       This decoder supports both the ordinary GSM and the Microsoft variant.

   libilbc
       libilbc decoder wrapper.

       libilbc allows libavcodec to decode the Internet Low Bitrate Codec (iLBC) audio codec.
       Requires the presence of the libilbc headers and library during configuration. You need to
       explicitly configure the build with "--enable-libilbc".

       Options

       The following option is supported by the libilbc wrapper.

       enhance
           Enable the enhancement of the decoded audio when set to 1. The default value is 0
           (disabled).

   libopencore-amrnb
       libopencore-amrnb decoder wrapper.

       libopencore-amrnb allows libavcodec to decode the Adaptive Multi-Rate Narrowband audio
       codec. Using it requires the presence of the libopencore-amrnb headers and library during
       configuration. You need to explicitly configure the build with
       "--enable-libopencore-amrnb".

       An FFmpeg native decoder for AMR-NB exists, so users can decode AMR-NB without this
       library.

   libopencore-amrwb
       libopencore-amrwb decoder wrapper.

       libopencore-amrwb allows libavcodec to decode the Adaptive Multi-Rate Wideband audio
       codec. Using it requires the presence of the libopencore-amrwb headers and library during
       configuration. You need to explicitly configure the build with
       "--enable-libopencore-amrwb".

       An FFmpeg native decoder for AMR-WB exists, so users can decode AMR-WB without this
       library.

   libopus
       libopus decoder wrapper.

       libopus allows libavcodec to decode the Opus Interactive Audio Codec.  Requires the
       presence of the libopus headers and library during configuration. You need to explicitly
       configure the build with "--enable-libopus".

       An FFmpeg native decoder for Opus exists, so users can decode Opus without this library.

           1   Always compute CLUT and override the one provided in the stream.

       dvb_substream
           Selects the dvb substream, or all substreams if -1 which is default.

   dvdsub
       This codec decodes the bitmap subtitles used in DVDs; the same subtitles can also be found
       in VobSub file pairs and in some Matroska files.

       Options

       palette
           Specify the global palette used by the bitmaps. When stored in VobSub, the palette is
           normally specified in the index file; in Matroska, the palette is stored in the codec
           extra-data in the same format as in VobSub. In DVDs, the palette is stored in the IFO
           file, and therefore not available when reading from dumped VOB files.

           The format for this option is a string containing 16 24-bits hexadecimal numbers
           (without 0x prefix) separated by comas, for example "0d00ee, ee450d, 101010, eaeaea,
           0ce60b, ec14ed, ebff0b, 0d617a, 7b7b7b, d1d1d1, 7b2a0e, 0d950c, 0f007b, cf0dec,
           cfa80c, 7c127b".

       ifo_palette
           Specify the IFO file from which the global palette is obtained.  (experimental)

       forced_subs_only
           Only decode subtitle entries marked as forced. Some titles have forced and non-forced
           subtitles in the same track. Setting this flag to 1 will only keep the forced
           subtitles. Default value is 0.

   libzvbi-teletext
       Libzvbi allows libavcodec to decode DVB teletext pages and DVB teletext subtitles.
       Requires the presence of the libzvbi headers and library during configuration. You need to
       explicitly configure the build with "--enable-libzvbi".

       Options

       txt_page
           List of teletext page numbers to decode. You may use the special * string to match all
           pages. Pages that do not match the specified list are dropped.  Default value is *.

       txt_chop_top
           Discards the top teletext line. Default value is 1.

       txt_format
           Specifies the format of the decoded subtitles. The teletext decoder is capable of
           decoding the teletext pages to bitmaps or to simple text, you should use "bitmap" for
           teletext pages, because certain graphics and colors cannot be expressed in simple
           text. You might use "text" for teletext based subtitles if your application can handle
           simple text based subtitles. Default value is bitmap.

       txt_left
           X offset of generated bitmaps, default is 0.

       txt_top
           Y offset of generated bitmaps, default is 0.

       txt_chop_spaces
           Chops leading and trailing spaces and removes empty lines from the generated text.
           This option is useful for teletext based subtitles where empty spaces may be present
           at the start or at the end of the lines or empty lines may be present between the
           subtitle lines because of double-sized teletext characters.  Default value is 1.

       txt_duration
           Sets the display duration of the decoded teletext pages or subtitles in milliseconds.
           Default value is 30000 which is 30 seconds.

       txt_transparent
           Force transparent background of the generated teletext bitmaps. Default value is 0
           which means an opaque background.

       txt_opacity
           Sets the opacity (0-255) of the teletext background. If txt_transparent is not set, it
           only affects characters between a start box and an end box, typically subtitles.
           Default value is 0 if txt_transparent is set, 255 otherwise.

BITSTREAM FILTERS

       When you configure your FFmpeg build, all the supported bitstream filters are enabled by
       default. You can list all available ones using the configure option "--list-bsfs".

       You can disable all the bitstream filters using the configure option "--disable-bsfs", and
       selectively enable any bitstream filter using the option "--enable-bsf=BSF", or you can
       disable a particular bitstream filter using the option "--disable-bsf=BSF".

       The option "-bsfs" of the ff* tools will display the list of all the supported bitstream
       filters included in your build.

       The ff* tools have a -bsf option applied per stream, taking a comma-separated list of
       filters, whose parameters follow the filter name after a '='.

               ffmpeg -i INPUT -c:v copy -bsf:v filter1[=opt1=str1:opt2=str2][,filter2] OUTPUT

       Below is a description of the currently available bitstream filters, with their
       parameters, if any.

   aac_adtstoasc
       Convert MPEG-2/4 AAC ADTS to an MPEG-4 Audio Specific Configuration bitstream.

       This filter creates an MPEG-4 AudioSpecificConfig from an MPEG-2/4 ADTS header and removes
       the ADTS header.

       This filter is required for example when copying an AAC stream from a raw ADTS AAC or an
       MPEG-TS container to MP4A-LATM, to an FLV file, or to MOV/MP4 files and related formats
       such as 3GP or M4A. Please note that it is auto-inserted for MP4A-LATM and MOV/MP4 and
       related formats.

   chomp
       Remove zero padding at the end of a packet.

   dca_core
       Extract the core from a DCA/DTS stream, dropping extensions such as DTS-HD.

   dump_extra
       Add extradata to the beginning of the filtered packets.

       The additional argument specifies which packets should be filtered.  It accepts the
       values:

       a   add extradata to all key packets, but only if local_header is set in the flags2 codec
           context field

       k   add extradata to all key packets

       e   add extradata to all packets

       If not specified it is assumed k.

       For example the following ffmpeg command forces a global header (thus disabling individual
       packet headers) in the H.264 packets generated by the "libx264" encoder, but corrects them
       by adding the header stored in extradata to the key packets:

               ffmpeg -i INPUT -map 0 -flags:v +global_header -c:v libx264 -bsf:v dump_extra out.ts

   extract_extradata
       Extract the in-band extradata.

       Certain codecs allow the long-term headers (e.g. MPEG-2 sequence headers, or H.264/HEVC
       (VPS/)SPS/PPS) to be transmitted either "in-band" (i.e. as a part of the bitstream
       containing the coded frames) or "out of band" (e.g. on the container level). This latter
       form is called "extradata" in FFmpeg terminology.

       This bitstream filter detects the in-band headers and makes them available as extradata.

       remove
           When this option is enabled, the long-term headers are removed from the bitstream
           after extraction.

   h264_mp4toannexb
       Convert an H.264 bitstream from length prefixed mode to start code prefixed mode (as
       defined in the Annex B of the ITU-T H.264 specification).

       This is required by some streaming formats, typically the MPEG-2 transport stream format
       (muxer "mpegts").

       For example to remux an MP4 file containing an H.264 stream to mpegts format with ffmpeg,
       you can use the command:

               ffmpeg -i INPUT.mp4 -codec copy -bsf:v h264_mp4toannexb OUTPUT.ts

       Please note that this filter is auto-inserted for MPEG-TS (muxer "mpegts") and raw H.264
       (muxer "h264") output formats.

   hevc_mp4toannexb
       Convert an HEVC/H.265 bitstream from length prefixed mode to start code prefixed mode (as
       defined in the Annex B of the ITU-T H.265 specification).

       This is required by some streaming formats, typically the MPEG-2 transport stream format
       (muxer "mpegts").

       For example to remux an MP4 file containing an HEVC stream to mpegts format with ffmpeg,
       you can use the command:

               ffmpeg -i INPUT.mp4 -codec copy -bsf:v hevc_mp4toannexb OUTPUT.ts

       Please note that this filter is auto-inserted for MPEG-TS (muxer "mpegts") and raw
       HEVC/H.265 (muxer "h265" or "hevc") output formats.

   imxdump
       Modifies the bitstream to fit in MOV and to be usable by the Final Cut Pro decoder. This
       filter only applies to the mpeg2video codec, and is likely not needed for Final Cut Pro 7
       and newer with the appropriate -tag:v.

       For example, to remux 30 MB/sec NTSC IMX to MOV:

               ffmpeg -i input.mxf -c copy -bsf:v imxdump -tag:v mx3n output.mov

   mjpeg2jpeg
       Convert MJPEG/AVI1 packets to full JPEG/JFIF packets.

       MJPEG is a video codec wherein each video frame is essentially a JPEG image. The
       individual frames can be extracted without loss, e.g. by

               ffmpeg -i ../some_mjpeg.avi -c:v copy frames_%d.jpg

       Unfortunately, these chunks are incomplete JPEG images, because they lack the DHT segment
       required for decoding. Quoting from
       <http://www.digitalpreservation.gov/formats/fdd/fdd000063.shtml>:

       Avery Lee, writing in the rec.video.desktop newsgroup in 2001, commented that "MJPEG, or
       at least the MJPEG in AVIs having the MJPG fourcc, is restricted JPEG with a fixed -- and
       *omitted* -- Huffman table. The JPEG must be YCbCr colorspace, it must be 4:2:2, and it
       must use basic Huffman encoding, not arithmetic or progressive. . . . You can indeed
       extract the MJPEG frames and decode them with a regular JPEG decoder, but you have to
       prepend the DHT segment to them, or else the decoder won't have any idea how to decompress
       the data. The exact table necessary is given in the OpenDML spec."

       This bitstream filter patches the header of frames extracted from an MJPEG stream
       (carrying the AVI1 header ID and lacking a DHT segment) to produce fully qualified JPEG
       images.

               ffmpeg -i mjpeg-movie.avi -c:v copy -bsf:v mjpeg2jpeg frame_%d.jpg
               exiftran -i -9 frame*.jpg
               ffmpeg -i frame_%d.jpg -c:v copy rotated.avi

   mjpegadump
       Add an MJPEG A header to the bitstream, to enable decoding by Quicktime.

   mov2textsub
       Extract a representable text file from MOV subtitles, stripping the metadata header from
       each subtitle packet.

       See also the text2movsub filter.

   mp3decomp
       Decompress non-standard compressed MP3 audio headers.

   mpeg4_unpack_bframes
       Unpack DivX-style packed B-frames.

       DivX-style packed B-frames are not valid MPEG-4 and were only a workaround for the broken
       Video for Windows subsystem.  They use more space, can cause minor AV sync issues, require
       more CPU power to decode (unless the player has some decoded picture queue to compensate
       the 2,0,2,0 frame per packet style) and cause trouble if copied into a standard container
       like mp4 or mpeg-ps/ts, because MPEG-4 decoders may not be able to decode them, since they
       are not valid MPEG-4.

       For example to fix an AVI file containing an MPEG-4 stream with DivX-style packed B-frames
       using ffmpeg, you can use the command:

               ffmpeg -i INPUT.avi -codec copy -bsf:v mpeg4_unpack_bframes OUTPUT.avi

   noise
       Damages the contents of packets or simply drops them without damaging the container. Can
       be used for fuzzing or testing error resilience/concealment.

       Parameters:

       amount
           A numeral string, whose value is related to how often output bytes will be modified.
           Therefore, values below or equal to 0 are forbidden, and the lower the more frequent
           bytes will be modified, with 1 meaning every byte is modified.

       dropamount
           A numeral string, whose value is related to how often packets will be dropped.
           Therefore, values below or equal to 0 are forbidden, and the lower the more frequent
           packets will be dropped, with 1 meaning every packet is dropped.

       The following example applies the modification to every byte but does not drop any
       packets.

               ffmpeg -i INPUT -c copy -bsf noise[=1] output.mkv

   null
       This bitstream filter passes the packets through unchanged.

   remove_extra
       Remove extradata from packets.

       It accepts the following parameter:

       freq
           Set which frame types to remove extradata from.

           k   Remove extradata from non-keyframes only.

           keyframe
               Remove extradata from keyframes only.

           e, all
               Remove extradata from all frames.

   text2movsub
       Convert text subtitles to MOV subtitles (as used by the "mov_text" codec) with metadata
       headers.

       See also the mov2textsub filter.

   vp9_superframe
       Merge VP9 invisible (alt-ref) frames back into VP9 superframes. This fixes merging of
       split/segmented VP9 streams where the alt-ref frame was split from its visible
       counterpart.

   vp9_superframe_split
       Split VP9 superframes into single frames.

   vp9_raw_reorder
       Given a VP9 stream with correct timestamps but possibly out of order, insert additional
       show-existing-frame packets to correct the ordering.

FORMAT OPTIONS

       The libavformat library provides some generic global options, which can be set on all the
       muxers and demuxers. In addition each muxer or demuxer may support so-called private
       options, which are specific for that component.

       Options may be set by specifying -option value in the FFmpeg tools, or by setting the
       value explicitly in the "AVFormatContext" options or using the libavutil/opt.h API for
       programmatic use.

       The list of supported options follows:

       avioflags flags (input/output)
           Possible values:

           direct
               Reduce buffering.

       probesize integer (input)
           Set probing size in bytes, i.e. the size of the data to analyze to get stream
           information. A higher value will enable detecting more information in case it is
           dispersed into the stream, but will increase latency. Must be an integer not lesser
           than 32. It is 5000000 by default.

       packetsize integer (output)
           Set packet size.

       fflags flags (input/output)
           Set format flags.

           Possible values:

           ignidx
               Ignore index.

           fastseek
               Enable fast, but inaccurate seeks for some formats.

           genpts
               Generate PTS.

           nofillin
               Do not fill in missing values that can be exactly calculated.

           noparse
               Disable AVParsers, this needs "+nofillin" too.

           igndts
               Ignore DTS.

           discardcorrupt
               Discard corrupted frames.

           sortdts
               Try to interleave output packets by DTS.

           keepside
               Do not merge side data.

           latm
               Enable RTP MP4A-LATM payload.

           nobuffer
               Reduce the latency introduced by optional buffering

           bitexact
               Only write platform-, build- and time-independent data.  This ensures that file
               and data checksums are reproducible and match between platforms. Its primary use
               is for regression testing.

           shortest
               Stop muxing at the end of the shortest stream.  It may be needed to increase
               max_interleave_delta to avoid flushing the longer streams before EOF.

       seek2any integer (input)
           Allow seeking to non-keyframes on demuxer level when supported if set to 1.  Default
           is 0.

       analyzeduration integer (input)
           Specify how many microseconds are analyzed to probe the input. A higher value will
           enable detecting more accurate information, but will increase latency. It defaults to
           5,000,000 microseconds = 5 seconds.

       cryptokey hexadecimal string (input)
           Set decryption key.

       indexmem integer (input)
           Set max memory used for timestamp index (per stream).

       rtbufsize integer (input)
           Set max memory used for buffering real-time frames.

       fdebug flags (input/output)
           Print specific debug info.

           Possible values:

           ts
       max_delay integer (input/output)
           Set maximum muxing or demuxing delay in microseconds.

       fpsprobesize integer (input)
           Set number of frames used to probe fps.

       audio_preload integer (output)
           Set microseconds by which audio packets should be interleaved earlier.

       chunk_duration integer (output)
           Set microseconds for each chunk.

       chunk_size integer (output)
           Set size in bytes for each chunk.

       err_detect, f_err_detect flags (input)
           Set error detection flags. "f_err_detect" is deprecated and should be used only via
           the ffmpeg tool.

           Possible values:

           crccheck
               Verify embedded CRCs.

           bitstream
               Detect bitstream specification deviations.

           buffer
               Detect improper bitstream length.

           explode
               Abort decoding on minor error detection.

           careful
               Consider things that violate the spec and have not been seen in the wild as
               errors.

           compliant
               Consider all spec non compliancies as errors.

           aggressive
               Consider things that a sane encoder should not do as an error.

       max_interleave_delta integer (output)
           Set maximum buffering duration for interleaving. The duration is expressed in
           microseconds, and defaults to 1000000 (1 second).

           To ensure all the streams are interleaved correctly, libavformat will wait until it
           has at least one packet for each stream before actually writing any packets to the
           output file. When some streams are "sparse" (i.e. there are large gaps between
           successive packets), this can result in excessive buffering.

           This field specifies the maximum difference between the timestamps of the first and
           the last packet in the muxing queue, above which libavformat will output a packet
           regardless of whether it has queued a packet for all the streams.

           If set to 0, libavformat will continue buffering packets until it has a packet for
           each stream, regardless of the maximum timestamp difference between the buffered
           packets.

       use_wallclock_as_timestamps integer (input)
           Use wallclock as timestamps if set to 1. Default is 0.

       avoid_negative_ts integer (output)
           Possible values:

           make_non_negative
               Shift timestamps to make them non-negative.  Also note that this affects only
               leading negative timestamps, and not non-monotonic negative timestamps.

           make_zero
               Shift timestamps so that the first timestamp is 0.

           auto (default)
               Enables shifting when required by the target format.

           disabled
               Disables shifting of timestamp.

           When shifting is enabled, all output timestamps are shifted by the same amount. Audio,
           video, and subtitles desynching and relative timestamp differences are preserved
           compared to how they would have been without shifting.

       skip_initial_bytes integer (input)
           Set number of bytes to skip before reading header and frames if set to 1.  Default is
           0.

       correct_ts_overflow integer (input)
           Correct single timestamp overflows if set to 1. Default is 1.

       flush_packets integer (output)
           Flush the underlying I/O stream after each packet. Default is -1 (auto), which means
           that the underlying protocol will decide, 1 enables it, and has the effect of reducing
           the latency, 0 disables it and may increase IO throughput in some cases.

       output_ts_offset offset (output)
           Set the output time offset.

           offset must be a time duration specification, see the Time duration section in the
           ffmpeg-utils(1) manual.

           The offset is added by the muxer to the output timestamps.

           Specifying a positive offset means that the corresponding streams are delayed bt the
           time duration specified in offset. Default value is 0 (meaning that no offset is
           applied).

       format_whitelist list (input)
           "," separated list of allowed demuxers. By default all are allowed.

       dump_separator string (input)
           Separator used to separate the fields printed on the command line about the Stream
           parameters.  For example to separate the fields with newlines and indention:

                   ffprobe -dump_separator "
                                             "  -i ~/videos/matrixbench_mpeg2.mpg

       max_streams integer (input)
           Specifies the maximum number of streams. This can be used to reject files that would
           require too many resources due to a large number of streams.

   Format stream specifiers
       Format stream specifiers allow selection of one or more streams that match specific
       properties.

       Possible forms of stream specifiers are:

       stream_index
           Matches the stream with this index.

       stream_type[:stream_index]
           stream_type is one of following: 'v' for video, 'a' for audio, 's' for subtitle, 'd'
           for data, and 't' for attachments. If stream_index is given, then it matches the
           stream number stream_index of this type. Otherwise, it matches all streams of this
           type.

       p:program_id[:stream_index]
           If stream_index is given, then it matches the stream with number stream_index in the
           program with the id program_id. Otherwise, it matches all streams in the program.

       #stream_id
           Matches the stream by a format-specific ID.

       The exact semantics of stream specifiers is defined by the
       "avformat_match_stream_specifier()" function declared in the libavformat/avformat.h
       header.

DEMUXERS

       Demuxers are configured elements in FFmpeg that can read the multimedia streams from a
       particular type of file.

       When you configure your FFmpeg build, all the supported demuxers are enabled by default.
       You can list all available ones using the configure option "--list-demuxers".

       You can disable all the demuxers using the configure option "--disable-demuxers", and
       selectively enable a single demuxer with the option "--enable-demuxer=DEMUXER", or disable
       it with the option "--disable-demuxer=DEMUXER".

       The option "-demuxers" of the ff* tools will display the list of enabled demuxers. Use
       "-formats" to view a combined list of enabled demuxers and muxers.

       The description of some of the currently available demuxers follows.

   aa
       Audible Format 2, 3, and 4 demuxer.

       This demuxer is used to demux Audible Format 2, 3, and 4 (.aa) files.

   applehttp
       Apple HTTP Live Streaming demuxer.

       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 available in a metadata key
       named "variant_bitrate".

   apng
       Animated Portable Network Graphics demuxer.

       This demuxer is used to demux APNG files.  All headers, but the PNG signature, up to (but
       not including) the first fcTL chunk are transmitted as extradata.  Frames are then split
       as being all the chunks between two fcTL ones, or between the last fcTL and IEND chunks.

       -ignore_loop bool
           Ignore the loop variable in the file if set.

       -max_fps int
           Maximum framerate in frames per second (0 for no limit).

       -default_fps int
           Default framerate in frames per second when none is specified in the file (0 meaning
           as fast as possible).

   asf
       Advanced Systems Format demuxer.

       This demuxer is used to demux ASF files and MMS network streams.

       -no_resync_search bool
           Do not try to resynchronize by looking for a certain optional start code.

   concat
       Virtual concatenation script demuxer.

       This demuxer reads a list of files and other directives from a text file and demuxes them
       one after the other, as if all their packets had been muxed together.

       The timestamps in the files are adjusted so that the first file starts at 0 and each next
       file starts where the previous one finishes. Note that it is done globally and may cause
       gaps if all streams do not have exactly the same length.

       All files must have the same streams (same codecs, same time base, etc.).

       The duration of each file is used to adjust the timestamps of the next file: if the
       duration is incorrect (because it was computed using the bit-rate or because the file is
       truncated, for example), it can cause artifacts. The "duration" directive can be used to
       override the duration stored in each file.

       Syntax

       The script is a text file in extended-ASCII, with one directive per line.  Empty lines,
       leading spaces and lines starting with '#' are ignored. The following directive is
       recognized:

       "file path"
           Path to a file to read; special characters and spaces must be escaped with backslash
           or single quotes.

           All subsequent file-related directives apply to that file.

       "ffconcat version 1.0"
           Identify the script type and version. It also sets the safe option to 1 if it was -1.

           To make FFmpeg recognize the format automatically, this directive must appear exactly
           as is (no extra space or byte-order-mark) on the very first line of the script.

       "duration dur"
           Duration of the file. This information can be specified from the file; specifying it
           here may be more efficient or help if the information from the file is not available
           or accurate.

           If the duration is set for all files, then it is possible to seek in the whole
           concatenated video.

       "inpoint timestamp"
           In point of the file. When the demuxer opens the file it instantly seeks to the
           specified timestamp. Seeking is done so that all streams can be presented successfully
           at In point.

           This directive works best with intra frame codecs, because for non-intra frame ones
           you will usually get extra packets before the actual In point and the decoded content
           will most likely contain frames before In point too.

           For each file, packets before the file In point will have timestamps less than the
           calculated start timestamp of the file (negative in case of the first file), and the
           duration of the files (if not specified by the "duration" directive) will be reduced
           based on their specified In point.

           Because of potential packets before the specified In point, packet timestamps may
           overlap between two concatenated files.

       "outpoint timestamp"
           Out point of the file. When the demuxer reaches the specified decoding timestamp in
           any of the streams, it handles it as an end of file condition and skips the current
           and all the remaining packets from all streams.

           Out point is exclusive, which means that the demuxer will not output packets with a
           decoding timestamp greater or equal to Out point.

           This directive works best with intra frame codecs and formats where all streams are
           tightly interleaved. For non-intra frame codecs you will usually get additional
           packets with presentation timestamp after Out point therefore the decoded content will
           most likely contain frames after Out point too. If your streams are not tightly
           interleaved you may not get all the packets from all streams before Out point and you
           may only will be able to decode the earliest stream until Out point.

           The duration of the files (if not specified by the "duration" directive) will be
           reduced based on their specified Out point.

       "file_packet_metadata key=value"
           Metadata of the packets of the file. The specified metadata will be set for each file
           packet. You can specify this directive multiple times to add multiple metadata
           entries.

       "stream"
           Introduce a stream in the virtual file.  All subsequent stream-related directives
           apply to the last introduced stream.  Some streams properties must be set in order to
           allow identifying the matching streams in the subfiles.  If no streams are defined in
           the script, the streams from the first file are copied.

       "exact_stream_id id"
           Set the id of the stream.  If this directive is given, the string with the
           corresponding id in the subfiles will be used.  This is especially useful for MPEG-PS
           (VOB) files, where the order of the streams is not reliable.

       Options

       This demuxer accepts the following option:

       safe
           If set to 1, reject unsafe file paths. A file path is considered safe if it does not
           contain a protocol specification and is relative and all components only contain
           characters from the portable character set (letters, digits, period, underscore and
           hyphen) and have no period at the beginning of a component.

           If set to 0, any file name is accepted.

           The default is 1.

           -1 is equivalent to 1 if the format was automatically probed and 0 otherwise.

       auto_convert
           If set to 1, try to perform automatic conversions on packet data to make the streams
           concatenable.  The default is 1.

           Currently, the only conversion is adding the h264_mp4toannexb bitstream filter to
           H.264 streams in MP4 format. This is necessary in particular if there are resolution
           changes.

       segment_time_metadata
           If set to 1, every packet will contain the lavf.concat.start_time and the
           lavf.concat.duration packet metadata values which are the start_time and the duration
           of the respective file segments in the concatenated output expressed in microseconds.
           The duration metadata is only set if it is known based on the concat file.  The
           default is 0.

       Examples

       •   Use absolute filenames and include some comments:

                   # my first filename
                   file /mnt/share/file-1.wav
                   # my second filename including whitespace
                   file '/mnt/share/file 2.wav'
                   # my third filename including whitespace plus single quote
                   file '/mnt/share/file 3'\''.wav'

       •   Allow for input format auto-probing, use safe filenames and set the duration of the
           first file:

                   ffconcat version 1.0

                   file file-1.wav
                   duration 20.0

                   file subdir/file-2.wav

   flv, live_flv
       Adobe Flash Video Format demuxer.

       This demuxer is used to demux FLV files and RTMP network streams. In case of live network
       streams, if you force format, you may use live_flv option instead of flv to survive
       timestamp discontinuities.

               ffmpeg -f flv -i myfile.flv ...
               ffmpeg -f live_flv -i rtmp://<any.server>/anything/key ....

       -flv_metadata bool
           Allocate the streams according to the onMetaData array content.

   gif
       Animated GIF demuxer.

       It accepts the following options:

       min_delay
           Set the minimum valid delay between frames in hundredths of seconds.  Range is 0 to
           6000. Default value is 2.

       max_gif_delay
           Set the maximum valid delay between frames in hundredth of seconds.  Range is 0 to
           65535. Default value is 65535 (nearly eleven minutes), the maximum value allowed by
           the specification.

       default_delay
           Set the default delay between frames in hundredths of seconds.  Range is 0 to 6000.
           Default value is 10.

       ignore_loop
           GIF files can contain information to loop a certain number of times (or infinitely).
           If ignore_loop is set to 1, then the loop setting from the input will be ignored and
           looping will not occur. If set to 0, then looping will occur and will cycle the number
           of times according to the GIF. Default value is 1.

       For example, with the overlay filter, place an infinitely looping GIF over another video:

               ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -ignore_loop 0 -i input.gif -filter_complex overlay=shortest=1 out.mkv

       Note that in the above example the shortest option for overlay filter is used to end the
       output video at the length of the shortest input file, which in this case is input.mp4 as
       the GIF in this example loops infinitely.

   hls
       HLS demuxer

       It accepts the following options:

       live_start_index
           segment index to start live streams at (negative values are from the end).

       allowed_extensions
           ',' separated list of file extensions that hls is allowed to access.

       max_reload
           Maximum number of times a insufficient list is attempted to be reloaded.  Default
           value is 1000.

   image2
       Image file demuxer.

       This demuxer reads from a list of image files specified by a pattern.  The syntax and
       meaning of the pattern is specified by the option pattern_type.

       The pattern may contain a suffix which is used to automatically determine the format of
       the images contained in the files.

       The size, the pixel format, and the format of each image must be the same for all the
       files in the sequence.

       This demuxer accepts the following options:

       framerate
           Set the frame rate for the video stream. It defaults to 25.

       loop
           If set to 1, loop over the input. Default value is 0.

       pattern_type
           Select the pattern type used to interpret the provided filename.

           pattern_type accepts one of the following values.

           none
               Disable pattern matching, therefore the video will only contain the specified
               image. You should use this option if you do not want to create sequences from
               multiple images and your filenames may contain special pattern characters.

           sequence
               Select a sequence pattern type, used to specify a sequence of files indexed by
               sequential numbers.

               A sequence pattern may contain the string "%d" or "%0Nd", which specifies the
               position of the characters representing a sequential number in each filename
               matched by the pattern. If the form "%d0Nd" is used, the string representing the
               number in each filename is 0-padded and N is the total number of 0-padded digits
               representing the number. The literal character '%' can be specified in the pattern
               with the string "%%".

               If the sequence pattern contains "%d" or "%0Nd", the first filename of the file
               list specified by the pattern must contain a number inclusively contained between
               start_number and start_number+start_number_range-1, and all the following numbers
               must be sequential.

               For example the pattern "img-%03d.bmp" will match a sequence of filenames of the
               form img-001.bmp, img-002.bmp, ..., img-010.bmp, etc.; the pattern
               "i%%m%%g-%d.jpg" will match a sequence of filenames of the form i%m%g-1.jpg,
               i%m%g-2.jpg, ..., i%m%g-10.jpg, etc.

               Note that the pattern must not necessarily contain "%d" or "%0Nd", for example to
               convert a single image file img.jpeg you can employ the command:

                       ffmpeg -i img.jpeg img.png

           glob
               Select a glob wildcard pattern type.

               The pattern is interpreted like a "glob()" pattern. This is only selectable if
               libavformat was compiled with globbing support.

           glob_sequence (deprecated, will be removed)
               Select a mixed glob wildcard/sequence pattern.

               If your version of libavformat was compiled with globbing support, and the
               provided pattern contains at least one glob meta character among "%*?[]{}" that is
               preceded by an unescaped "%", the pattern is interpreted like a "glob()" pattern,
               otherwise it is interpreted like a sequence pattern.

               All glob special characters "%*?[]{}" must be prefixed with "%". To escape a
               literal "%" you shall use "%%".

               For example the pattern "foo-%*.jpeg" will match all the filenames prefixed by
               "foo-" and terminating with ".jpeg", and "foo-%?%?%?.jpeg" will match all the
               filenames prefixed with "foo-", followed by a sequence of three characters, and
               terminating with ".jpeg".

               This pattern type is deprecated in favor of glob and sequence.

           Default value is glob_sequence.

       pixel_format
           Set the pixel format of the images to read. If not specified the pixel format is
           guessed from the first image file in the sequence.

       start_number
           Set the index of the file matched by the image file pattern to start to read from.
           Default value is 0.

       start_number_range
           Set the index interval range to check when looking for the first image file in the
           sequence, starting from start_number. Default value is 5.

       ts_from_file
           If set to 1, will set frame timestamp to modification time of image file. Note that
           monotonity of timestamps is not provided: images go in the same order as without this
           option. Default value is 0.  If set to 2, will set frame timestamp to the modification
           time of the image file in nanosecond precision.

       video_size
           Set the video size of the images to read. If not specified the video size is guessed
           from the first image file in the sequence.

       Examples

       •   Use ffmpeg for creating a video from the images in the file sequence img-001.jpeg,
           img-002.jpeg, ..., assuming an input frame rate of 10 frames per second:

                   ffmpeg -framerate 10 -i 'img-%03d.jpeg' out.mkv

       •   As above, but start by reading from a file with index 100 in the sequence:

                   ffmpeg -framerate 10 -start_number 100 -i 'img-%03d.jpeg' out.mkv

       •   Read images matching the "*.png" glob pattern , that is all the files terminating with
           the ".png" suffix:

                   ffmpeg -framerate 10 -pattern_type glob -i "*.png" out.mkv

   libgme
       The Game Music Emu library is a collection of video game music file emulators.

       See <http://code.google.com/p/game-music-emu/> for more information.

       Some files have multiple tracks. The demuxer will pick the first track by default. The
       track_index option can be used to select a different track. Track indexes start at 0. The
       demuxer exports the number of tracks as tracks meta data entry.

       For very large files, the max_size option may have to be adjusted.

   libopenmpt
       libopenmpt based module demuxer

       See <https://lib.openmpt.org/libopenmpt/> for more information.

       Some files have multiple subsongs (tracks) this can be set with the subsong option.

       It accepts the following options:

       subsong
           Set the subsong index. This can be either  'all', 'auto', or the index of the subsong.
           Subsong indexes start at 0. The default is 'auto'.

           The default value is to let libopenmpt choose.

       layout
           Set the channel layout. Valid values are 1, 2, and 4 channel layouts.  The default
           value is STEREO.

       sample_rate
           Set the sample rate for libopenmpt to output.  Range is from 1000 to INT_MAX. The
           value default is 48000.

   mov/mp4/3gp/QuickTime
       QuickTime / MP4 demuxer.

       This demuxer accepts the following options:

       enable_drefs
           Enable loading of external tracks, disabled by default.  Enabling this can
           theoretically leak information in some use cases.

       use_absolute_path
           Allows loading of external tracks via absolute paths, disabled by default.  Enabling
           this poses a security risk. It should only be enabled if the source is known to be non
           malicious.

   mpegts
       MPEG-2 transport stream demuxer.

       This demuxer accepts the following options:

       resync_size
           Set size limit for looking up a new synchronization. Default value is 65536.

       fix_teletext_pts
           Override teletext packet PTS and DTS values with the timestamps calculated from the
           PCR of the first program which the teletext stream is part of and is not discarded.
           Default value is 1, set this option to 0 if you want your teletext packet PTS and DTS
           values untouched.

       ts_packetsize
           Output option carrying the raw packet size in bytes.  Show the detected raw packet
           size, cannot be set by the user.

       scan_all_pmts
           Scan and combine all PMTs. The value is an integer with value from -1 to 1 (-1 means
           automatic setting, 1 means enabled, 0 means disabled). Default value is -1.

   mpjpeg
       MJPEG encapsulated in multi-part MIME demuxer.

       This demuxer allows reading of MJPEG, where each frame is represented as a part of
       multipart/x-mixed-replace stream.

       strict_mime_boundary
           Default implementation applies a relaxed standard to multi-part MIME boundary
           detection, to prevent regression with numerous existing endpoints not generating a
           proper MIME MJPEG stream. Turning this option on by setting it to 1 will result in a
           stricter check of the boundary value.

   rawvideo
       Raw video demuxer.

       This demuxer allows one to read raw video data. Since there is no header specifying the
       assumed video parameters, the user must specify them in order to be able to decode the
       data correctly.

       This demuxer accepts the following options:

       framerate
           Set input video frame rate. Default value is 25.

       pixel_format
           Set the input video pixel format. Default value is "yuv420p".

       video_size
           Set the input video size. This value must be specified explicitly.

       For example to read a rawvideo file input.raw with ffplay, assuming a pixel format of
       "rgb24", a video size of "320x240", and a frame rate of 10 images per second, use the
       command:

               ffplay -f rawvideo -pixel_format rgb24 -video_size 320x240 -framerate 10 input.raw

   sbg
       SBaGen script demuxer.

       This demuxer reads the script language used by SBaGen <http://uazu.net/sbagen/> to
       generate binaural beats sessions. A SBG script looks like that:

               -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

       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 NOW 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 the script is directly
       played, the actual times will match the absolute timestamps up to the sound controller's
       clock accuracy, but if the user somehow pauses the playback or seeks, all times will be
       shifted accordingly.

   tedcaptions
       JSON captions used for <http://www.ted.com/>.

       TED does not provide links to the captions, but they can be guessed from the page. The
       file tools/bookmarklets.html from the FFmpeg source tree contains a bookmarklet to expose
       them.

       This demuxer accepts the following option:

       start_time
           Set the start time of the TED talk, in milliseconds. The default is 15000 (15s). It is
           used to sync the captions with the downloadable videos, because they include a 15s
           intro.

       Example: convert the captions to a format most players understand:

               ffmpeg -i http://www.ted.com/talks/subtitles/id/1/lang/en talk1-en.srt

METADATA

       FFmpeg is able to dump metadata from media files into a simple UTF-8-encoded INI-like text
       file and then load it back using the metadata muxer/demuxer.

       The file format is as follows:

       1.  A file consists of a header and a number of metadata tags divided into sections, each
           on its own line.

       2.  The header is a ;FFMETADATA string, followed by a version number (now 1).

       3.  Metadata tags are of the form key=value

       4.  Immediately after header follows global metadata

       5.  After global metadata there may be sections with per-stream/per-chapter metadata.

       6.  A section starts with the section name in uppercase (i.e. STREAM or CHAPTER) in
           brackets ([, ]) and ends with next section or end of file.

       7.  At the beginning of a chapter section there may be an optional timebase to be used for
           start/end values. It must be in form TIMEBASE=num/den, where num and den are integers.
           If the timebase is missing then start/end times are assumed to be in milliseconds.

           Next a chapter section must contain chapter start and end times in form START=num,
           END=num, where num is a positive integer.

       8.  Empty lines and lines starting with ; or # are ignored.

       9.  Metadata keys or values containing special characters (=, ;, #, \ and a newline) must
           be escaped with a backslash \.

       10. Note that whitespace in metadata (e.g. foo = bar) is considered to be a part of the
           tag (in the example above key is foo , value is
            bar).

       A ffmetadata file might look like this:

               ;FFMETADATA1
               title=bike\\shed
               ;this is a comment
               artist=FFmpeg troll team

               [CHAPTER]
               TIMEBASE=1/1000
               START=0
               #chapter ends at 0:01:00
               END=60000
               title=chapter \#1
               [STREAM]
               title=multi\
               line

       By using the ffmetadata muxer and demuxer it is possible to extract metadata from an input
       file to an ffmetadata file, and then transcode the file into an output file with the
       edited ffmetadata file.

       Extracting an ffmetadata file with ffmpeg goes as follows:

               ffmpeg -i INPUT -f ffmetadata FFMETADATAFILE

       Reinserting edited metadata information from the FFMETADATAFILE file can be done as:

               ffmpeg -i INPUT -i FFMETADATAFILE -map_metadata 1 -codec copy OUTPUT

PROTOCOL OPTIONS

       The libavformat library provides some generic global options, which can be set on all the
       protocols. In addition each protocol may support so-called private options, which are
       specific for that component.

       Options may be set by specifying -option value in the FFmpeg tools, or by setting the
       value explicitly in the "AVFormatContext" options or using the libavutil/opt.h API for
       programmatic use.

       The list of supported options follows:

       protocol_whitelist list (input)
           Set a ","-separated list of allowed protocols. "ALL" matches all protocols. Protocols
           prefixed by "-" are disabled.  All protocols are allowed by default but protocols used
           by an another protocol (nested protocols) are restricted to a per protocol subset.

PROTOCOLS

       Protocols are configured elements in FFmpeg that enable access to resources that require
       specific protocols.

       When you configure your FFmpeg build, all the supported protocols are enabled by default.
       You can list all available ones using the configure option "--list-protocols".

       You can disable all the protocols using the configure option "--disable-protocols", and
       selectively enable a protocol using the option "--enable-protocol=PROTOCOL", or you can
       disable a particular protocol using the option "--disable-protocol=PROTOCOL".

       The option "-protocols" of the ff* tools will display the list of supported protocols.

       All protocols accept the following options:

       rw_timeout
           Maximum time to wait for (network) read/write operations to complete, in microseconds.

       A description of the currently available protocols follows.

   async
       Asynchronous data filling wrapper for input stream.

       Fill data in a background thread, to decouple I/O operation from demux thread.

               async:<URL>
               async:http://host/resource
               async:cache:http://host/resource

   bluray
       Read BluRay playlist.

       The accepted options are:

       angle
           BluRay angle

       chapter
           Start chapter (1...N)

       playlist
           Playlist to read (BDMV/PLAYLIST/?????.mpls)

       Examples:

       Read longest playlist from BluRay mounted to /mnt/bluray:

               bluray:/mnt/bluray

       Read angle 2 of playlist 4 from BluRay mounted to /mnt/bluray, start from chapter 2:

               -playlist 4 -angle 2 -chapter 2 bluray:/mnt/bluray

   cache
       Caching wrapper for input stream.

       Cache the input stream to temporary file. It brings seeking capability to live streams.

               cache:<URL>

   concat
       Physical concatenation protocol.

       Read and seek from many resources in sequence as if they were a unique resource.

       A URL accepted by this protocol has the syntax:

               concat:<URL1>|<URL2>|...|<URLN>

       where URL1, URL2, ..., URLN are the urls of the resource to be concatenated, each one
       possibly specifying a distinct protocol.

       For example to read a sequence of files split1.mpeg, split2.mpeg, split3.mpeg with ffplay
       use the command:

               ffplay concat:split1.mpeg\|split2.mpeg\|split3.mpeg

       Note that you may need to escape the character "|" which is special for many shells.

   crypto
       AES-encrypted stream reading protocol.

       The accepted options are:

       key Set the AES decryption key binary block from given hexadecimal representation.

       iv  Set the AES decryption initialization vector binary block from given hexadecimal
           representation.

       Accepted URL formats:

               crypto:<URL>
               crypto+<URL>

   data
       Data in-line in the URI. See <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_URI_scheme>.

       For example, to convert a GIF file given inline with ffmpeg:

               ffmpeg -i "data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODdhCAAIAMIEAAAAAAAA//8AAP//AP///////////////ywAAAAACAAIAAADF0gEDLojDgdGiJdJqUX02iB4E8Q9jUMkADs=" smiley.png

   file
       File access protocol.

       Read from or write to a file.

       A file URL can have the form:

               file:<filename>

       where filename is the path of the file to read.

       An URL that does not have a protocol prefix will be assumed to be a file URL. Depending on
       the build, an URL that looks like a Windows path with the drive letter at the beginning
       will also be assumed to be a file URL (usually not the case in builds for unix-like
       systems).

       For example to read from a file input.mpeg with ffmpeg use the command:

               ffmpeg -i file:input.mpeg output.mpeg

       This protocol accepts the following options:

       truncate
           Truncate existing files on write, if set to 1. A value of 0 prevents truncating.
           Default value is 1.

       blocksize
           Set I/O operation maximum block size, in bytes. Default value is "INT_MAX", which
           results in not limiting the requested block size.  Setting this value reasonably low
           improves user termination request reaction time, which is valuable for files on slow
           medium.

   ftp
       FTP (File Transfer Protocol).

       Read from or write to remote resources using FTP protocol.

       Following syntax is required.

               ftp://[user[:password]@]server[:port]/path/to/remote/resource.mpeg

       This protocol accepts the following options.

       timeout
           Set timeout in microseconds of socket I/O operations used by the underlying low level
           operation. By default it is set to -1, which means that the timeout is not specified.

       ftp-anonymous-password
           Password used when login as anonymous user. Typically an e-mail address should be
           used.

       ftp-write-seekable
           Control seekability of connection during encoding. If set to 1 the resource is
           supposed to be seekable, if set to 0 it is assumed not to be seekable. Default value
           is 0.

       NOTE: Protocol can be used as output, but it is recommended to not do it, unless special
       care is taken (tests, customized server configuration etc.). Different FTP servers behave
       in different way during seek operation. ff* tools may produce incomplete content due to
       server limitations.

       This protocol accepts the following options:

       follow
           If set to 1, the protocol will retry reading at the end of the file, allowing reading
           files that still are being written. In order for this to terminate, you either need to
           use the rw_timeout option, or use the interrupt callback (for API users).

   gopher
       Gopher protocol.

   hls
       Read Apple HTTP Live Streaming compliant segmented stream as a uniform one. The M3U8
       playlists describing the segments can be remote HTTP resources or local files, accessed
       using the standard file protocol.  The nested protocol is declared by specifying "+proto"
       after the hls URI scheme name, where proto is either "file" or "http".

               hls+http://host/path/to/remote/resource.m3u8
               hls+file://path/to/local/resource.m3u8

       Using this protocol is discouraged - the hls demuxer should work just as well (if not,
       please report the issues) and is more complete.  To use the hls demuxer instead, simply
       use the direct URLs to the m3u8 files.

   http
       HTTP (Hyper Text Transfer Protocol).

       This protocol accepts the following options:

       seekable
           Control seekability of connection. If set to 1 the resource is supposed to be
           seekable, if set to 0 it is assumed not to be seekable, if set to -1 it will try to
           autodetect if it is seekable. Default value is -1.

       chunked_post
           If set to 1 use chunked Transfer-Encoding for posts, default is 1.

       content_type
           Set a specific content type for the POST messages or for listen mode.

       http_proxy
           set HTTP proxy to tunnel through e.g. http://example.com:1234

       headers
           Set custom HTTP headers, can override built in default headers. The value must be a
           string encoding the headers.

       multiple_requests
           Use persistent connections if set to 1, default is 0.

       post_data
           Set custom HTTP post data.

       user_agent
           Override the User-Agent header. If not specified the protocol will use a string
           describing the libavformat build. ("Lavf/<version>")

       user-agent
           This is a deprecated option, you can use user_agent instead it.

       timeout
           Set timeout in microseconds of socket I/O operations used by the underlying low level
           operation. By default it is set to -1, which means that the timeout is not specified.

       reconnect_at_eof
           If set then eof is treated like an error and causes reconnection, this is useful for
           live / endless streams.

       reconnect_streamed
           If set then even streamed/non seekable streams will be reconnected on errors.

       reconnect_delay_max
           Sets the maximum delay in seconds after which to give up reconnecting

       mime_type
           Export the MIME type.

       icy If set to 1 request ICY (SHOUTcast) metadata from the server. If the server supports
           this, the metadata has to be retrieved by the application by reading the
           icy_metadata_headers and icy_metadata_packet options.  The default is 1.

       icy_metadata_headers
           If the server supports ICY metadata, this contains the ICY-specific HTTP reply
           headers, separated by newline characters.

       icy_metadata_packet
           If the server supports ICY metadata, and icy was set to 1, this contains the last non-
           empty metadata packet sent by the server. It should be polled in regular intervals by
           applications interested in mid-stream metadata updates.

       cookies
           Set the cookies to be sent in future requests. The format of each cookie is the same
           as the value of a Set-Cookie HTTP response field. Multiple cookies can be delimited by
           a newline character.

       offset
           Set initial byte offset.

       end_offset
           Try to limit the request to bytes preceding this offset.

       method
           When used as a client option it sets the HTTP method for the request.

           When used as a server option it sets the HTTP method that is going to be expected from
           the client(s).  If the expected and the received HTTP method do not match the client
           will be given a Bad Request response.  When unset the HTTP method is not checked for
           now. This will be replaced by autodetection in the future.

       listen
           If set to 1 enables experimental HTTP server. This can be used to send data when used
           as an output option, or read data from a client with HTTP POST when used as an input
           option.  If set to 2 enables experimental multi-client HTTP server. This is not yet
           implemented in ffmpeg.c or ffserver.c and thus must not be used as a command line
           option.

                   # Server side (sending):
                   ffmpeg -i somefile.ogg -c copy -listen 1 -f ogg http://<server>:<port>

                   # Client side (receiving):
                   ffmpeg -i http://<server>:<port> -c copy somefile.ogg

                   # Client can also be done with wget:
                   wget http://<server>:<port> -O somefile.ogg

                   # Server side (receiving):
                   ffmpeg -listen 1 -i http://<server>:<port> -c copy somefile.ogg

                   # Client side (sending):
                   ffmpeg -i somefile.ogg -chunked_post 0 -c copy -f ogg http://<server>:<port>

                   # Client can also be done with wget:
                   wget --post-file=somefile.ogg http://<server>:<port>

       HTTP Cookies

       Some HTTP requests will be denied unless cookie values are passed in with the request. The
       cookies option allows these cookies to be specified. At the very least, each cookie must
       specify a value along with a path and domain.  HTTP requests that match both the domain
       and path will automatically include the cookie value in the HTTP Cookie header field.
       Multiple cookies can be delimited by a newline.

       The required syntax to play a stream specifying a cookie is:

               ffplay -cookies "nlqptid=nltid=tsn; path=/; domain=somedomain.com;" http://somedomain.com/somestream.m3u8

   Icecast
       Icecast protocol (stream to Icecast servers)

       This protocol accepts the following options:

       ice_genre
           Set the stream genre.

       ice_name
           Set the stream name.

       ice_description
           Set the stream description.

       ice_url
           Set the stream website URL.

       ice_public
           Set if the stream should be public.  The default is 0 (not public).

       user_agent
           Override the User-Agent header. If not specified a string of the form "Lavf/<version>"
           will be used.

       password
           Set the Icecast mountpoint password.

       content_type
           Set the stream content type. This must be set if it is different from audio/mpeg.

       legacy_icecast
           This enables support for Icecast versions < 2.4.0, that do not support the HTTP PUT
           method but the SOURCE method.

               icecast://[<username>[:<password>]@]<server>:<port>/<mountpoint>

   mmst
       MMS (Microsoft Media Server) protocol over TCP.

   mmsh
       MMS (Microsoft Media Server) protocol over HTTP.

       The required syntax is:

               mmsh://<server>[:<port>][/<app>][/<playpath>]

   md5
       MD5 output protocol.

       Computes the MD5 hash of the data to be written, and on close writes this to the
       designated output or stdout if none is specified. It can be used to test muxers without
       writing an actual file.

       Some examples follow.

               # Write the MD5 hash of the encoded AVI file to the file output.avi.md5.
               ffmpeg -i input.flv -f avi -y md5:output.avi.md5

               # Write the MD5 hash of the encoded AVI file to stdout.
               ffmpeg -i input.flv -f avi -y md5:

       Note that some formats (typically MOV) require the output protocol to be seekable, so they
       will fail with the MD5 output protocol.

   pipe
       UNIX pipe access protocol.

       Read and write from UNIX pipes.

       The accepted syntax is:

               pipe:[<number>]

       number is the number corresponding to the file descriptor of the pipe (e.g. 0 for stdin, 1
       for stdout, 2 for stderr).  If number is not specified, by default the stdout file
       descriptor will be used for writing, stdin for reading.

       For example to read from stdin with ffmpeg:

               cat test.wav | ffmpeg -i pipe:0
               # ...this is the same as...
               cat test.wav | ffmpeg -i pipe:

       For writing to stdout with ffmpeg:

               ffmpeg -i test.wav -f avi pipe:1 | cat > test.avi
               # ...this is the same as...
               ffmpeg -i test.wav -f avi pipe: | cat > test.avi

       This protocol accepts the following options:

       blocksize
           Set I/O operation maximum block size, in bytes. Default value is "INT_MAX", which
           results in not limiting the requested block size.  Setting this value reasonably low
           improves user termination request reaction time, which is valuable if data
           transmission is slow.

       Note that some formats (typically MOV), require the output protocol to be seekable, so
       they will fail with the pipe output protocol.

   prompeg
       Pro-MPEG Code of Practice #3 Release 2 FEC protocol.

       The Pro-MPEG CoP#3 FEC is a 2D parity-check forward error correction mechanism for MPEG-2
       Transport Streams sent over RTP.

       This protocol must be used in conjunction with the "rtp_mpegts" muxer and the "rtp"
       protocol.

       The required syntax is:

               -f rtp_mpegts -fec prompeg=<option>=<val>... rtp://<hostname>:<port>

       The destination UDP ports are "port + 2" for the column FEC stream and "port + 4" for the
       row FEC stream.

       This protocol accepts the following options:

       l=n The number of columns (4-20, LxD <= 100)

       d=n The number of rows (4-20, LxD <= 100)

       Example usage:

               -f rtp_mpegts -fec prompeg=l=8:d=4 rtp://<hostname>:<port>

   rtmp
       Real-Time Messaging Protocol.

       The Real-Time Messaging Protocol (RTMP) is used for streaming multimedia content across a
       TCP/IP network.

       The required syntax is:

               rtmp://[<username>:<password>@]<server>[:<port>][/<app>][/<instance>][/<playpath>]

       The accepted parameters are:

       username
           An optional username (mostly for publishing).

       password
           An optional password (mostly for publishing).

       server
           The address of the RTMP server.

       port
           The number of the TCP port to use (by default is 1935).

       app It is the name of the application to access. It usually corresponds to the path where
           the application is installed on the RTMP server (e.g. /ondemand/, /flash/live/, etc.).
           You can override the value parsed from the URI through the "rtmp_app" option, too.

       playpath
           It is the path or name of the resource to play with reference to the application
           specified in app, may be prefixed by "mp4:". You can override the value parsed from
           the URI through the "rtmp_playpath" option, too.

       listen
           Act as a server, listening for an incoming connection.

       timeout
           Maximum time to wait for the incoming connection. Implies listen.

       Additionally, the following parameters can be set via command line options (or in code via
       "AVOption"s):

       rtmp_app
           Name of application to connect on the RTMP server. This option overrides the parameter
           specified in the URI.

       rtmp_buffer
           Set the client buffer time in milliseconds. The default is 3000.

       rtmp_conn
           Extra arbitrary AMF connection parameters, parsed from a string, e.g. like "B:1
           S:authMe O:1 NN:code:1.23 NS:flag:ok O:0".  Each value is prefixed by a single
           character denoting the type, B for Boolean, N for number, S for string, O for object,
           or Z for null, followed by a colon. For Booleans the data must be either 0 or 1 for
           FALSE or TRUE, respectively.  Likewise for Objects the data must be 0 or 1 to end or
           begin an object, respectively. Data items in subobjects may be named, by prefixing the
           type with 'N' and specifying the name before the value (i.e. "NB:myFlag:1"). This
           option may be used multiple times to construct arbitrary AMF sequences.

       rtmp_flashver
           Version of the Flash plugin used to run the SWF player. The default is LNX 9,0,124,2.
           (When publishing, the default is FMLE/3.0 (compatible; <libavformat version>).)

       rtmp_flush_interval
           Number of packets flushed in the same request (RTMPT only). The default is 10.

       rtmp_live
           Specify that the media is a live stream. No resuming or seeking in live streams is
           possible. The default value is "any", which means the subscriber first tries to play
           the live stream specified in the playpath. If a live stream of that name is not found,
           it plays the recorded stream. The other possible values are "live" and "recorded".

       rtmp_pageurl
           URL of the web page in which the media was embedded. By default no value will be sent.

       rtmp_playpath
           Stream identifier to play or to publish. This option overrides the parameter specified
           in the URI.

       rtmp_subscribe
           Name of live stream to subscribe to. By default no value will be sent.  It is only
           sent if the option is specified or if rtmp_live is set to live.

       rtmp_swfhash
           SHA256 hash of the decompressed SWF file (32 bytes).

       rtmp_swfsize
           Size of the decompressed SWF file, required for SWFVerification.

       rtmp_swfurl
           URL of the SWF player for the media. By default no value will be sent.

       rtmp_swfverify
           URL to player swf file, compute hash/size automatically.

       rtmp_tcurl
           URL of the target stream. Defaults to proto://host[:port]/app.

       For example to read with ffplay a multimedia resource named "sample" from the application
       "vod" from an RTMP server "myserver":

               ffplay rtmp://myserver/vod/sample

       To publish to a password protected server, passing the playpath and app names separately:

               ffmpeg -re -i <input> -f flv -rtmp_playpath some/long/path -rtmp_app long/app/name rtmp://username:password@myserver/

   rtmpe

       Real-Time Messaging Protocol tunneled through HTTPS.

       The Real-Time Messaging Protocol tunneled through HTTPS (RTMPTS) is used for streaming
       multimedia content within HTTPS requests to traverse firewalls.

   libsmbclient
       libsmbclient permits one to manipulate CIFS/SMB network resources.

       Following syntax is required.

               smb://[[domain:]user[:password@]]server[/share[/path[/file]]]

       This protocol accepts the following options.

       timeout
           Set timeout in milliseconds of socket I/O operations used by the underlying low level
           operation. By default it is set to -1, which means that the timeout is not specified.

       truncate
           Truncate existing files on write, if set to 1. A value of 0 prevents truncating.
           Default value is 1.

       workgroup

       Following syntax is required.

               sftp://[user[:password]@]server[:port]/path/to/remote/resource.mpeg

       This protocol accepts the following options.

       timeout
           Set timeout of socket I/O operations used by the underlying low level operation. By
           default it is set to -1, which means that the timeout is not specified.

               ffplay sftp://user:password@server_address:22/home/user/resource.mpeg

   librtmp rtmp, rtmpe, rtmps, rtmpt, rtmpte
       Real-Time Messaging Protocol and its variants supported through librtmp.

       Requires the presence of the librtmp headers and library during configuration. You need to
       explicitly configure the build with "--enable-librtmp". If enabled this will replace the
       native RTMP protocol.

       This protocol provides most client functions and a few server functions needed to support
       RTMP, RTMP tunneled in HTTP (RTMPT), encrypted RTMP (RTMPE), RTMP over SSL/TLS (RTMPS) and
       tunneled variants of these encrypted types (RTMPTE, RTMPTS).

       The required syntax is:

               <rtmp_proto>://<server>[:<port>][/<app>][/<playpath>] <options>

       where rtmp_proto is one of the strings "rtmp", "rtmpt", "rtmpe", "rtmps", "rtmpte",
       "rtmpts" corresponding to each RTMP variant, and server, port, app and playpath have the
       same meaning as specified for the RTMP native protocol.  options contains a list of space-
       separated options of the form key=val.

       See the librtmp manual page (man 3 librtmp) for more information.

       For example, to stream a file in real-time to an RTMP server using ffmpeg:

               ffmpeg -re -i myfile -f flv rtmp://myserver/live/mystream

       To play the same stream using ffplay:

               ffplay "rtmp://myserver/live/mystream live=1"

   rtp
       Real-time Transport Protocol.

       The required syntax for an RTP URL is: rtp://hostname[:port][?option=val...]

       port specifies the RTP port to use.

       The following URL options are supported:

       ttl=n
           Set the TTL (Time-To-Live) value (for multicast only).

       rtcpport=n
           Set the remote RTCP port to n.

       localrtpport=n
           Set the local RTP port to n.

       localrtcpport=n'
           Set the local RTCP port to n.

       pkt_size=n
           Set max packet size (in bytes) to n.

       connect=0|1
           Do a "connect()" on the UDP socket (if set to 1) or not (if set to 0).

       sources=ip[,ip]
           List allowed source IP addresses.

       block=ip[,ip]
           List disallowed (blocked) source IP addresses.

       write_to_source=0|1
           Send packets to the source address of the latest received packet (if set to 1) or to a
           default remote address (if set to 0).

       localport=n
           Set the local RTP port to n.

           This is a deprecated option. Instead, localrtpport should be used.

       Important notes:

       1.  If rtcpport is not set the RTCP port will be set to the RTP port value plus 1.

       2.  If localrtpport (the local RTP port) is not set any available port will be used for
           the local RTP and RTCP ports.

       3.  If localrtcpport (the local RTCP port) is not set it will be set to the local RTP port
           value plus 1.

   rtsp
       Real-Time Streaming Protocol.

       RTSP is not technically a protocol handler in libavformat, it is a demuxer and muxer. The
       demuxer supports both normal RTSP (with data transferred over RTP; this is used by e.g.
       Apple and Microsoft) and Real-RTSP (with data transferred over RDT).

       The muxer can be used to send a stream using RTSP ANNOUNCE to a server supporting it
       (currently Darwin Streaming Server and Mischa Spiegelmock's
       <https://github.com/revmischa/rtsp-server>).

       The required syntax for a RTSP url is:

               rtsp://<hostname>[:<port>]/<path>

       Options can be set on the ffmpeg/ffplay command line, or set in code via "AVOption"s or in
       "avformat_open_input".

       The following options are supported.

       initial_pause
           Do not start playing the stream immediately if set to 1. Default value is 0.

       rtsp_transport
           Set RTSP transport protocols.

           It accepts the following values:

           udp Use UDP as lower transport protocol.

           tcp Use TCP (interleaving within the RTSP control channel) as lower transport
               protocol.

           udp_multicast
               Use UDP multicast as lower transport protocol.

           http
               Use HTTP tunneling as lower transport protocol, which is useful for passing
               proxies.

           Multiple lower transport protocols may be specified, in that case they are tried one
           at a time (if the setup of one fails, the next one is tried).  For the muxer, only the
           tcp and udp options are supported.

       rtsp_flags
           Set RTSP flags.

           The following values are accepted:

           filter_src
               Accept packets only from negotiated peer address and port.

           listen
               Act as a server, listening for an incoming connection.

           prefer_tcp
               Try TCP for RTP transport first, if TCP is available as RTSP RTP transport.

           Default value is none.

       allowed_media_types
           Set media types to accept from the server.

           The following flags are accepted:

           video
           audio
           data

           By default it accepts all media types.

       min_port
           Set minimum local UDP port. Default value is 5000.

       max_port
           Set maximum local UDP port. Default value is 65000.

       timeout
           Set maximum timeout (in seconds) to wait for incoming connections.

           A value of -1 means infinite (default). This option implies the rtsp_flags set to
           listen.

       reorder_queue_size
           Set number of packets to buffer for handling of reordered packets.

       stimeout
           Set socket TCP I/O timeout in microseconds.

       user-agent
           Override User-Agent header. If not specified, it defaults to the libavformat
           identifier string.

       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). This can be disabled by setting
       the maximum demuxing delay to zero (via the "max_delay" field of AVFormatContext).

       When watching multi-bitrate Real-RTSP streams with ffplay, the streams to display can be
       chosen with "-vst" n and "-ast" n for video and audio respectively, and can be switched on
       the fly by pressing "v" and "a".

       Examples

       The following examples all make use of the ffplay and ffmpeg tools.

       •   Watch a stream over UDP, with a max reordering delay of 0.5 seconds:

                   ffplay -max_delay 500000 -rtsp_transport udp rtsp://server/video.mp4

       •   Watch a stream tunneled over HTTP:

                   ffplay -rtsp_transport http rtsp://server/video.mp4

       •   Send a stream in realtime to a RTSP server, for others to watch:

                   ffmpeg -re -i <input> -f rtsp -muxdelay 0.1 rtsp://server/live.sdp

       •   Receive a stream in realtime:

                   ffmpeg -rtsp_flags listen -i rtsp://ownaddress/live.sdp <output>

   sap
       Session Announcement Protocol (RFC 2974). This is not technically a protocol handler in
       libavformat, it is a muxer and demuxer.  It is used for signalling of RTP streams, by
       announcing the SDP for the streams regularly on a separate port.

       Muxer

       The syntax for a SAP url given to the muxer is:

               sap://<destination>[:<port>][?<options>]

       The RTP packets are sent to destination on port port, or to port 5004 if no port is
       specified.  options is a "&"-separated list. The following options are supported:

       announce_addr=address
           Specify the destination IP address for sending the announcements to.  If omitted, the
           announcements are sent to the commonly used SAP announcement multicast address
           224.2.127.254 (sap.mcast.net), or ff0e::2:7ffe if destination is an IPv6 address.

       announce_port=port
           Specify the port to send the announcements on, defaults to 9875 if not specified.

       ttl=ttl
           Specify the time to live value for the announcements and RTP packets, defaults to 255.

       same_port=0|1
           If set to 1, send all RTP streams on the same port pair. If zero (the default), all
           streams are sent on unique ports, with each stream on a port 2 numbers higher than the
           previous.  VLC/Live555 requires this to be set to 1, to be able to receive the stream.
           The RTP stack in libavformat for receiving requires all streams to be sent on unique
           ports.

       Example command lines follow.

       To broadcast a stream on the local subnet, for watching in VLC:

               ffmpeg -re -i <input> -f sap sap://224.0.0.255?same_port=1

       Similarly, for watching in ffplay:

               ffmpeg -re -i <input> -f sap sap://224.0.0.255

       And for watching in ffplay, over IPv6:

               ffmpeg -re -i <input> -f sap sap://[ff0e::1:2:3:4]

       Demuxer

       The syntax for a SAP url given to the demuxer is:

               sap://[<address>][:<port>]

       address is the multicast address to listen for announcements on, if omitted, the default
       224.2.127.254 (sap.mcast.net) is used. port is the port that is listened on, 9875 if
       omitted.

       The demuxers listens for announcements on the given address and port.  Once an
       announcement is received, it tries to receive that particular stream.

       Example command lines follow.

       To play back the first stream announced on the normal SAP multicast address:

               ffplay sap://

       To play back the first stream announced on one the default IPv6 SAP multicast address:

               ffplay sap://[ff0e::2:7ffe]

   sctp
       Stream Control Transmission Protocol.

       The accepted URL syntax is:

               sctp://<host>:<port>[?<options>]

       The protocol accepts the following options:

       listen
           If set to any value, listen for an incoming connection. Outgoing connection is done by
           default.

       max_streams
           Set the maximum number of streams. By default no limit is set.

   srtp
       Secure Real-time Transport Protocol.

       The accepted options are:

       srtp_in_suite
       srtp_out_suite
           Select input and output encoding suites.

           Supported values:

           AES_CM_128_HMAC_SHA1_80
           SRTP_AES128_CM_HMAC_SHA1_80
           AES_CM_128_HMAC_SHA1_32
           SRTP_AES128_CM_HMAC_SHA1_32
       srtp_in_params
       srtp_out_params
           Set input and output encoding parameters, which are expressed by a base64-encoded
           representation of a binary block. The first 16 bytes of this binary block are used as
           master key, the following 14 bytes are used as master salt.

   subfile
       Virtually extract a segment of a file or another stream.  The underlying stream must be
       seekable.

       Accepted options:

       start
           Start offset of the extracted segment, in bytes.

       end End offset of the extracted segment, in bytes.

       Examples:

       Extract a chapter from a DVD VOB file (start and end sectors obtained externally and
       multiplied by 2048):

               subfile,,start,153391104,end,268142592,,:/media/dvd/VIDEO_TS/VTS_08_1.VOB

       Play an AVI file directly from a TAR archive:

               subfile,,start,183241728,end,366490624,,:archive.tar

   tee
       Writes the output to multiple protocols. The individual outputs are separated by |

               tee:file://path/to/local/this.avi|file://path/to/local/that.avi

   tcp
       Transmission Control Protocol.

       The required syntax for a TCP url is:

               tcp://<hostname>:<port>[?<options>]

       options contains a list of &-separated options of the form key=val.

       The list of supported options follows.

       listen=1|0
           Listen for an incoming connection. Default value is 0.

       timeout=microseconds
           Set raise error timeout, expressed in microseconds.

           This option is only relevant in read mode: if no data arrived in more than this time
           interval, raise error.

       listen_timeout=milliseconds
           Set listen timeout, expressed in milliseconds.

       recv_buffer_size=bytes
           Set receive buffer size, expressed bytes.

       send_buffer_size=bytes
           Set send buffer size, expressed bytes.

       The following example shows how to setup a listening TCP connection with ffmpeg, which is
       then accessed with ffplay:

               ffmpeg -i <input> -f <format> tcp://<hostname>:<port>?listen
               ffplay tcp://<hostname>:<port>

   tls
       Transport Layer Security (TLS) / Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)

       The required syntax for a TLS/SSL url is:

               tls://<hostname>:<port>[?<options>]

       The following parameters can be set via command line options (or in code via "AVOption"s):

       ca_file, cafile=filename
           A file containing certificate authority (CA) root certificates to treat as trusted. If
           the linked TLS library contains a default this might not need to be specified for
           verification to work, but not all libraries and setups have defaults built in.  The
           file must be in OpenSSL PEM format.

       tls_verify=1|0
           If enabled, try to verify the peer that we are communicating with.  Note, if using
           OpenSSL, this currently only makes sure that the peer certificate is signed by one of
           the root certificates in the CA database, but it does not validate that the
           certificate actually matches the host name we are trying to connect to. (With GnuTLS,
           the host name is validated as well.)

           This is disabled by default since it requires a CA database to be provided by the
           caller in many cases.

       cert_file, cert=filename
           A file containing a certificate to use in the handshake with the peer.  (When
           operating as server, in listen mode, this is more often required by the peer, while
           client certificates only are mandated in certain setups.)

       key_file, key=filename
           A file containing the private key for the certificate.

       listen=1|0
           If enabled, listen for connections on the provided port, and assume the server role in
           the handshake instead of the client role.

       Example command lines:

       To create a TLS/SSL server that serves an input stream.

               ffmpeg -i <input> -f <format> tls://<hostname>:<port>?listen&cert=<server.crt>&key=<server.key>

       To play back a stream from the TLS/SSL server using ffplay:

               ffplay tls://<hostname>:<port>

   udp
       User Datagram Protocol.

       The required syntax for an UDP URL is:

               udp://<hostname>:<port>[?<options>]

       options contains a list of &-separated options of the form key=val.

       In case threading is enabled on the system, a circular buffer is used to store the
       incoming data, which allows one to reduce loss of data due to UDP socket buffer overruns.
       The fifo_size and overrun_nonfatal options are related to this buffer.

       The list of supported options follows.

       buffer_size=size
           Set the UDP maximum socket buffer size in bytes. This is used to set either the
           receive or send buffer size, depending on what the socket is used for.  Default is
           64KB.  See also fifo_size.

       bitrate=bitrate
           If set to nonzero, the output will have the specified constant bitrate if the input
           has enough packets to sustain it.

       burst_bits=bits
           When using bitrate this specifies the maximum number of bits in packet bursts.

       localport=port
           Override the local UDP port to bind with.

       localaddr=addr
           Choose the local IP address. This is useful e.g. if sending multicast and the host has
           multiple interfaces, where the user can choose which interface to send on by
           specifying the IP address of that interface.

       pkt_size=size
           Set the size in bytes of UDP packets.

       reuse=1|0
           Explicitly allow or disallow reusing UDP sockets.

       ttl=ttl
           Set the time to live value (for multicast only).

       connect=1|0
           Initialize the UDP socket with "connect()". In this case, the destination address
           can't be changed with ff_udp_set_remote_url later.  If the destination address isn't
           known at the start, this option can be specified in ff_udp_set_remote_url, too.  This
           allows finding out the source address for the packets with getsockname, and makes
           writes return with AVERROR(ECONNREFUSED) if "destination unreachable" is received.
           For receiving, this gives the benefit of only receiving packets from the specified
           peer address/port.

       sources=address[,address]
           Only receive packets sent to the multicast group from one of the specified sender IP
           addresses.

       block=address[,address]
           Ignore packets sent to the multicast group from the specified sender IP addresses.

       fifo_size=units
           Set the UDP receiving circular buffer size, expressed as a number of packets with size
           of 188 bytes. If not specified defaults to 7*4096.

       overrun_nonfatal=1|0
           Survive in case of UDP receiving circular buffer overrun. Default value is 0.

       timeout=microseconds
           Set raise error timeout, expressed in microseconds.

           This option is only relevant in read mode: if no data arrived in more than this time
           interval, raise error.

       broadcast=1|0
           Explicitly allow or disallow UDP broadcasting.

           Note that broadcasting may not work properly on networks having a broadcast storm
           protection.

       Examples

       •   Use ffmpeg to stream over UDP to a remote endpoint:

                   ffmpeg -i <input> -f <format> udp://<hostname>:<port>

       •   Use ffmpeg to stream in mpegts format over UDP using 188 sized UDP packets, using a
           large input buffer:

                   ffmpeg -i <input> -f mpegts udp://<hostname>:<port>?pkt_size=188&buffer_size=65535

       •   Use ffmpeg to receive over UDP from a remote endpoint:

                   ffmpeg -i udp://[<multicast-address>]:<port> ...

   unix
       Unix local socket

       The required syntax for a Unix socket URL is:

               unix://<filepath>

       The following parameters can be set via command line options (or in code via "AVOption"s):

       timeout
           Timeout in ms.

       listen
           Create the Unix socket in listening mode.

DEVICE OPTIONS

       The libavdevice library provides the same interface as libavformat. Namely, an input
       device is considered like a demuxer, and an output device like a muxer, and the interface
       and generic device options are the same provided by libavformat (see the ffmpeg-formats
       manual).

       In addition each input or output device may support so-called private options, which are
       specific for that component.

       Options may be set by specifying -option value in the FFmpeg tools, or by setting the
       value explicitly in the device "AVFormatContext" options or using the libavutil/opt.h API
       for programmatic use.

INPUT DEVICES

       Input devices are configured elements in FFmpeg which enable accessing the data coming
       from a multimedia device attached to your system.

       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".

       You can disable all the input devices using the configure option "--disable-indevs", and
       selectively enable an input device using the option "--enable-indev=INDEV", or you can
       disable a particular input device using the option "--disable-indev=INDEV".

       The option "-devices" of the ff* tools will display the list of supported input devices.

       A description of the currently available input devices follows.

   alsa
       ALSA (Advanced Linux Sound Architecture) input device.

       To enable this input device during configuration you need libasound installed on your
       system.

       This device allows capturing from an ALSA device. The name of the device to capture has to
       be an ALSA card identifier.

       An ALSA identifier has the syntax:

               hw:<CARD>[,<DEV>[,<SUBDEV>]]

       where the DEV and SUBDEV components are optional.

       The three arguments (in order: CARD,DEV,SUBDEV) specify card number or identifier, device
       number and subdevice number (-1 means any).

       To see the list of cards currently recognized by your system check the files
       /proc/asound/cards and /proc/asound/devices.

       For example to capture with ffmpeg from an ALSA device with card id 0, you may run the
       command:

               ffmpeg -f alsa -i hw:0 alsaout.wav

       For more information see: <http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/alsa-lib/pcm.html>

       Options

       sample_rate
           Set the sample rate in Hz. Default is 48000.

       channels
           Set the number of channels. Default is 2.

   avfoundation
       AVFoundation input device.

       AVFoundation is the currently recommended framework by Apple for streamgrabbing on OSX >=
       10.7 as well as on iOS.

       The input filename has to be given in the following syntax:

               -i "[[VIDEO]:[AUDIO]]"

       The first entry selects the video input while the latter selects the audio input.  The
       stream has to be specified by the device name or the device index as shown by the device
       list.  Alternatively, the video and/or audio input device can be chosen by index using the

           B<-video_device_index E<lt>INDEXE<gt>>

       and/or

           B<-audio_device_index E<lt>INDEXE<gt>>

       , overriding any device name or index given in the input filename.

       All available devices can be enumerated by using -list_devices true, listing all device
       names and corresponding indices.

       There are two device name aliases:

       "default"
           Select the AVFoundation default device of the corresponding type.

       "none"
           Do not record the corresponding media type.  This is equivalent to specifying an empty
           device name or index.

       Options

       AVFoundation supports the following options:

       -list_devices <TRUE|FALSE>
           If set to true, a list of all available input devices is given showing all device
           names and indices.

       -video_device_index <INDEX>
           Specify the video device by its index. Overrides anything given in the input filename.

       -audio_device_index <INDEX>
           Specify the audio device by its index. Overrides anything given in the input filename.

       -pixel_format <FORMAT>
           Request the video device to use a specific pixel format.  If the specified format is
           not supported, a list of available formats is given and the first one in this list is
           used instead. Available pixel formats are: "monob, rgb555be, rgb555le, rgb565be,
           rgb565le, rgb24, bgr24, 0rgb, bgr0, 0bgr, rgb0,
            bgr48be, uyvy422, yuva444p, yuva444p16le, yuv444p, yuv422p16, yuv422p10, yuv444p10,
            yuv420p, nv12, yuyv422, gray"

       -framerate
           Set the grabbing frame rate. Default is "ntsc", corresponding to a frame rate of
           "30000/1001".

       -video_size
           Set the video frame size.

       -capture_cursor
           Capture the mouse pointer. Default is 0.

       -capture_mouse_clicks
           Capture the screen mouse clicks. Default is 0.

       Examples

       •   Print the list of AVFoundation supported devices and exit:

                   $ ffmpeg -f avfoundation -list_devices true -i ""

       •   Record video from video device 0 and audio from audio device 0 into out.avi:

                   $ ffmpeg -f avfoundation -i "0:0" out.avi

       •   Record video from video device 2 and audio from audio device 1 into out.avi:

                   $ ffmpeg -f avfoundation -video_device_index 2 -i ":1" out.avi

       •   Record video from the system default video device using the pixel format bgr0 and do
           not record any audio into out.avi:

                   $ ffmpeg -f avfoundation -pixel_format bgr0 -i "default:none" out.avi

   bktr
       BSD video input device.

       Options

       framerate
           Set the frame rate.

       video_size
           Set the video frame size. Default is "vga".

       standard
           Available values are:

           pal
           ntsc
           secam
           paln
           palm
           ntscj

   decklink
       The decklink input device provides capture capabilities for Blackmagic DeckLink devices.

       To enable this input device, you need the Blackmagic DeckLink SDK and you need to
       configure with the appropriate "--extra-cflags" and "--extra-ldflags".  On Windows, you
       need to run the IDL files through widl.

       DeckLink is very picky about the formats it supports. Pixel format of the input can be set
       with raw_format.  Framerate and video size must be determined for your device with
       -list_formats 1. Audio sample rate is always 48 kHz and the number of channels can be 2, 8
       or 16. Note that all audio channels are bundled in one single audio track.

       Options

       list_devices
           If set to true, print a list of devices and exit.  Defaults to false.

       list_formats
           If set to true, print a list of supported formats and exit.  Defaults to false.

       format_code <FourCC>
           This sets the input video format to the format given by the FourCC. To see the
           supported values of your device(s) use list_formats.  Note that there is a FourCC 'pal
           ' that can also be used as pal (3 letters).

       bm_v210
           This is a deprecated option, you can use raw_format instead.  If set to 1, video is
           captured in 10 bit v210 instead of uyvy422. Not all Blackmagic devices support this
           option.

       raw_format
           Set the pixel format of the captured video.  Available values are:

           uyvy422
           yuv422p10
           argb
           bgra
           rgb10
       teletext_lines
           If set to nonzero, an additional teletext stream will be captured from the vertical
           ancillary data. Both SD PAL (576i) and HD (1080i or 1080p) sources are supported. In
           case of HD sources, OP47 packets are decoded.

           This option is a bitmask of the SD PAL VBI lines captured, specifically lines 6 to 22,
           and lines 318 to 335. Line 6 is the LSB in the mask. Selected lines which do not
           contain teletext information will be ignored. You can use the special all constant to
           select all possible lines, or standard to skip lines 6, 318 and 319, which are not
           compatible with all receivers.

           For SD sources, ffmpeg needs to be compiled with "--enable-libzvbi". For HD sources,
           on older (pre-4K) DeckLink card models you have to capture in 10 bit mode.

       channels
           Defines number of audio channels to capture. Must be 2, 8 or 16.  Defaults to 2.

       duplex_mode
           Sets the decklink device duplex mode. Must be unset, half or full.  Defaults to unset.

       video_input
           Sets the video input source. Must be unset, sdi, hdmi, optical_sdi, component,
           composite or s_video.  Defaults to unset.

       audio_input
           Sets the audio input source. Must be unset, embedded, aes_ebu, analog, analog_xlr,
           analog_rca or microphone. Defaults to unset.

       video_pts
           Sets the video packet timestamp source. Must be video, audio, reference or wallclock.
           Defaults to video.

       audio_pts
           Sets the audio packet timestamp source. Must be video, audio, reference or wallclock.
           Defaults to audio.

       draw_bars
           If set to true, color bars are drawn in the event of a signal loss.  Defaults to true.

       queue_size
           Sets maximum input buffer size in bytes. If the buffering reaches this value, incoming
           frames will be dropped.  Defaults to 1073741824.

       Examples

       •   List input devices:

                   ffmpeg -f decklink -list_devices 1 -i dummy

       •   List supported formats:

                   ffmpeg -f decklink -list_formats 1 -i 'Intensity Pro'

       •   Capture video clip at 1080i50:

                   ffmpeg -format_code Hi50 -f decklink -i 'Intensity Pro' -c:a copy -c:v copy output.avi

       •   Capture video clip at 1080i50 10 bit:

                   ffmpeg -bm_v210 1 -format_code Hi50 -f decklink -i 'UltraStudio Mini Recorder' -c:a copy -c:v copy output.avi

       •   Capture video clip at 1080i50 with 16 audio channels:

                   ffmpeg -channels 16 -format_code Hi50 -f decklink -i 'UltraStudio Mini Recorder' -c:a copy -c:v copy output.avi

   kmsgrab
       KMS video input device.

       Captures the KMS scanout framebuffer associated with a specified CRTC or plane as a DRM
       object that can be passed to other hardware functions.

       Requires either DRM master or CAP_SYS_ADMIN to run.

       If you don't understand what all of that means, you probably don't want this.  Look at
       x11grab instead.

       Options

       device
           DRM device to capture on.  Defaults to /dev/dri/card0.

       format
           Pixel format of the framebuffer.  Defaults to bgr0.

       format_modifier
           Format modifier to signal on output frames.  This is necessary to import correctly
           into some APIs, but can't be autodetected.  See the libdrm documentation for possible
           values.

       crtc_id
           KMS CRTC ID to define the capture source.  The first active plane on the given CRTC
           will be used.

       plane_id
           KMS plane ID to define the capture source.  Defaults to the first active plane found
           if neither crtc_id nor plane_id are specified.

       framerate
           Framerate to capture at.  This is not synchronised to any page flipping or framebuffer
           changes - it just defines the interval at which the framebuffer is sampled.  Sampling
           faster than the framebuffer update rate will generate independent frames with the same
           content.  Defaults to 30.

       Examples

       •   Capture from the first active plane, download the result to normal frames and encode.
           This will only work if the framebuffer is both linear and mappable - if not, the
           result may be scrambled or fail to download.

                   ffmpeg -f kmsgrab -i - -vf 'hwdownload,format=bgr0' output.mp4

       •   Capture from CRTC ID 42 at 60fps, map the result to VAAPI, convert to NV12 and encode
           as H.264.

                   ffmpeg -crtc_id 42 -framerate 60 -f kmsgrab -i - -vf 'hwmap=derive_device=vaapi,scale_vaapi=w=1920:h=1080:format=nv12' -c:v h264_vaapi output.mp4

   libndi_newtek
       The libndi_newtek input device provides capture capabilities for using NDI (Network Device
       Interface, standard created by NewTek).

       Input filename is a NDI source name that could be found by sending -find_sources 1 to
       command line - it has no specific syntax but human-readable formatted.

       To enable this input device, you need the NDI SDK and you need to configure with the
       appropriate "--extra-cflags" and "--extra-ldflags".

       Options

       find_sources
           If set to true, print a list of found/available NDI sources and exit.  Defaults to
           false.

       wait_sources
           Override time to wait until the number of online sources have changed.  Defaults to
           0.5.

       allow_video_fields
           When this flag is false, all video that you receive will be progressive.  Defaults to
           true.

       Examples

       •   List input devices:

                   ffmpeg -f libndi_newtek -find_sources 1 -i dummy

       •   Restream to NDI:

                   ffmpeg -f libndi_newtek -i "DEV-5.INTERNAL.M1STEREO.TV (NDI_SOURCE_NAME_1)" -f libndi_newtek -y NDI_SOURCE_NAME_2

   dshow
       Windows DirectShow input device.

       DirectShow support is enabled when FFmpeg is built with the mingw-w64 project.  Currently
       only audio and video devices are supported.

       Multiple devices may be opened as separate inputs, but they may also be opened on the same
       input, which should improve synchronism between them.

       The input name should be in the format:

               <TYPE>=<NAME>[:<TYPE>=<NAME>]

       where TYPE can be either audio or video, and NAME is the device's name or alternative
       name..

       Options

       If no options are specified, the device's defaults are used.  If the device does not
       support the requested options, it will fail to open.

       video_size
           Set the video size in the captured video.

       framerate
           Set the frame rate in the captured video.

       sample_rate
           Set the sample rate (in Hz) of the captured audio.

       sample_size
           Set the sample size (in bits) of the captured audio.

       channels
           Set the number of channels in the captured audio.

       list_devices
           If set to true, print a list of devices and exit.

       list_options
           If set to true, print a list of selected device's options and exit.

       video_device_number
           Set video device number for devices with the same name (starts at 0, defaults to 0).

       audio_device_number
           Set audio device number for devices with the same name (starts at 0, defaults to 0).

       pixel_format
           Select pixel format to be used by DirectShow. This may only be set when the video
           codec is not set or set to rawvideo.

       audio_buffer_size
           Set audio device buffer size in milliseconds (which can directly impact latency,
           depending on the device).  Defaults to using the audio device's default buffer size
           (typically some multiple of 500ms).  Setting this value too low can degrade
           performance.  See also
           <http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dd377582(v=vs.85).aspx>

       video_pin_name
           Select video capture pin to use by name or alternative name.

       audio_pin_name
           Select audio capture pin to use by name or alternative name.

       crossbar_video_input_pin_number
           Select video input pin number for crossbar device. This will be routed to the crossbar
           device's Video Decoder output pin.  Note that changing this value can affect future
           invocations (sets a new default) until system reboot occurs.

       crossbar_audio_input_pin_number
           Select audio input pin number for crossbar device. This will be routed to the crossbar
           device's Audio Decoder output pin.  Note that changing this value can affect future
           invocations (sets a new default) until system reboot occurs.

       show_video_device_dialog
           If set to true, before capture starts, popup a display dialog to the end user,
           allowing them to change video filter properties and configurations manually.  Note
           that for crossbar devices, adjusting values in this dialog may be needed at times to
           toggle between PAL (25 fps) and NTSC (29.97) input frame rates, sizes, interlacing,
           etc.  Changing these values can enable different scan rates/frame rates and avoiding
           green bars at the bottom, flickering scan lines, etc.  Note that with some devices,
           changing these properties can also affect future invocations (sets new defaults) until
           system reboot occurs.

       show_audio_device_dialog
           If set to true, before capture starts, popup a display dialog to the end user,
           allowing them to change audio filter properties and configurations manually.

       show_video_crossbar_connection_dialog
           If set to true, before capture starts, popup a display dialog to the end user,
           allowing them to manually modify crossbar pin routings, when it opens a video device.

       show_audio_crossbar_connection_dialog
           If set to true, before capture starts, popup a display dialog to the end user,
           allowing them to manually modify crossbar pin routings, when it opens an audio device.

       show_analog_tv_tuner_dialog
           If set to true, before capture starts, popup a display dialog to the end user,
           allowing them to manually modify TV channels and frequencies.

       show_analog_tv_tuner_audio_dialog
           If set to true, before capture starts, popup a display dialog to the end user,
           allowing them to manually modify TV audio (like mono vs. stereo, Language A,B or C).

       audio_device_load
           Load an audio capture filter device from file instead of searching it by name. It may
           load additional parameters too, if the filter supports the serialization of its
           properties to.  To use this an audio capture source has to be specified, but it can be
           anything even fake one.

       audio_device_save
           Save the currently used audio capture filter device and its parameters (if the filter
           supports it) to a file.  If a file with the same name exists it will be overwritten.

       video_device_load
           Load a video capture filter device from file instead of searching it by name. It may
           load additional parameters too, if the filter supports the serialization of its
           properties to.  To use this a video capture source has to be specified, but it can be
           anything even fake one.

       video_device_save
           Save the currently used video capture filter device and its parameters (if the filter
           supports it) to a file.  If a file with the same name exists it will be overwritten.

   fbdev
       Linux framebuffer input device.

       The Linux framebuffer is a graphic hardware-independent abstraction layer to show graphics
       on a computer monitor, typically on the console. It is accessed through a file device
       node, usually /dev/fb0.

       For more detailed information read the file Documentation/fb/framebuffer.txt included in
       the Linux source tree.

       See also <http://linux-fbdev.sourceforge.net/>, and fbset(1).

       To record from the framebuffer device /dev/fb0 with ffmpeg:

               ffmpeg -f fbdev -framerate 10 -i /dev/fb0 out.avi

       You can take a single screenshot image with the command:

               ffmpeg -f fbdev -framerate 1 -i /dev/fb0 -frames:v 1 screenshot.jpeg

       Options

       framerate
           Set the frame rate. Default is 25.

   gdigrab
       Win32 GDI-based screen capture device.

       This device allows you to capture a region of the display on Windows.

       There are two options for the input filename:

               desktop

       or

               title=<window_title>

       The first option will capture the entire desktop, or a fixed region of the desktop. The
       second option will instead capture the contents of a single window, regardless of its
       position on the screen.

       For example, to grab the entire desktop using ffmpeg:

               ffmpeg -f gdigrab -framerate 6 -i desktop out.mpg

       Grab a 640x480 region at position "10,20":

               ffmpeg -f gdigrab -framerate 6 -offset_x 10 -offset_y 20 -video_size vga -i desktop out.mpg

       Grab the contents of the window named "Calculator"

               ffmpeg -f gdigrab -framerate 6 -i title=Calculator out.mpg

       Options

       draw_mouse
           Specify whether to draw the mouse pointer. Use the value 0 to not draw the pointer.
           Default value is 1.

       framerate
           Set the grabbing frame rate. Default value is "ntsc", corresponding to a frame rate of
           "30000/1001".

       show_region
           Show grabbed region on screen.

           If show_region is specified with 1, then the grabbing region will be indicated on
           screen. With this option, it is easy to know what is being grabbed if only a portion
           of the screen is grabbed.

           Note that show_region is incompatible with grabbing the contents of a single window.

           For example:

                   ffmpeg -f gdigrab -show_region 1 -framerate 6 -video_size cif -offset_x 10 -offset_y 20 -i desktop out.mpg

       video_size
           Set the video frame size. The default is to capture the full screen if desktop is
           selected, or the full window size if title=window_title is selected.

       offset_x
           When capturing a region with video_size, set the distance from the left edge of the
           screen or desktop.

           Note that the offset calculation is from the top left corner of the primary monitor on
           Windows. If you have a monitor positioned to the left of your primary monitor, you
           will need to use a negative offset_x value to move the region to that monitor.

       offset_y
           When capturing a region with video_size, set the distance from the top edge of the
           screen or desktop.

           Note that the offset calculation is from the top left corner of the primary monitor on
           Windows. If you have a monitor positioned above your primary monitor, you will need to
           use a negative offset_y value to move the region to that monitor.

   iec61883
       FireWire DV/HDV input device using libiec61883.

       To enable this input device, you need libiec61883, libraw1394 and libavc1394 installed on
       your system. Use the configure option "--enable-libiec61883" to compile with the device
       enabled.

       The iec61883 capture device supports capturing from a video device connected via IEEE1394
       (FireWire), using libiec61883 and the new Linux FireWire stack (juju). This is the default
       DV/HDV input method in Linux Kernel 2.6.37 and later, since the old FireWire stack was
       removed.

       Specify the FireWire port to be used as input file, or "auto" to choose the first port
       connected.

       Options

       dvtype
           Override autodetection of DV/HDV. This should only be used if auto detection does not
           work, or if usage of a different device type should be prohibited. Treating a DV
           device as HDV (or vice versa) will not work and result in undefined behavior.  The
           values auto, dv and hdv are supported.

       dvbuffer
           Set maximum size of buffer for incoming data, in frames. For DV, this is an exact
           value. For HDV, it is not frame exact, since HDV does not have a fixed frame size.

       dvguid
           Select the capture device by specifying its GUID. Capturing will only be performed
           from the specified device and fails if no device with the given GUID is found. This is
           useful to select the input if multiple devices are connected at the same time.  Look
           at /sys/bus/firewire/devices to find out the GUIDs.

       Examples

       •   Grab and show the input of a FireWire DV/HDV device.

                   ffplay -f iec61883 -i auto

       •   Grab and record the input of a FireWire DV/HDV device, using a packet buffer of 100000
           packets if the source is HDV.

                   ffmpeg -f iec61883 -i auto -hdvbuffer 100000 out.mpg

   jack
       JACK input device.

       To enable this input device during configuration you need libjack installed on your
       system.

       A JACK input device creates one or more JACK writable clients, one for each audio channel,
       with name client_name:input_N, where client_name is the name provided by the application,
       and N is a number which identifies the channel.  Each writable client will send the
       acquired data to the FFmpeg input device.

       Once you have created one or more JACK readable clients, you need to connect them to one
       or more JACK writable clients.

       To connect or disconnect JACK clients you can use the jack_connect and jack_disconnect
       programs, or do it through a graphical interface, for example with qjackctl.

       To list the JACK clients and their properties you can invoke the command jack_lsp.

       Follows an example which shows how to capture a JACK readable client with ffmpeg.

               # Create a JACK writable client with name "ffmpeg".
               $ ffmpeg -f jack -i ffmpeg -y out.wav

               # Start the sample jack_metro readable client.
               $ jack_metro -b 120 -d 0.2 -f 4000

               # List the current JACK clients.
               $ jack_lsp -c
               system:capture_1
               system:capture_2
               system:playback_1
               system:playback_2
               ffmpeg:input_1
               metro:120_bpm

               # Connect metro to the ffmpeg writable client.
               $ jack_connect metro:120_bpm ffmpeg:input_1

       For more information read: <http://jackaudio.org/>

       Options

       channels
           Set the number of channels. Default is 2.

   lavfi
       Libavfilter input virtual device.

       This input device reads data from the open output pads of a libavfilter filtergraph.

       For each filtergraph open output, the input device will create a corresponding stream
       which is mapped to the generated output. Currently only video data is supported. The
       filtergraph is specified through the option graph.

       Options

       graph
           Specify the filtergraph to use as input. Each video open output must be labelled by a
           unique string of the form "outN", where N is a number starting from 0 corresponding to
           the mapped input stream generated by the device.  The first unlabelled output is
           automatically assigned to the "out0" label, but all the others need to be specified
           explicitly.

           The suffix "+subcc" can be appended to the output label to create an extra stream with
           the closed captions packets attached to that output (experimental; only for EIA-608 /
           CEA-708 for now).  The subcc streams are created after all the normal streams, in the
           order of the corresponding stream.  For example, if there is "out19+subcc",
           "out7+subcc" and up to "out42", the stream #43 is subcc for stream #7 and stream #44
           is subcc for stream #19.

           If not specified defaults to the filename specified for the input device.

       graph_file
           Set the filename of the filtergraph to be read and sent to the other filters. Syntax
           of the filtergraph is the same as the one specified by the option graph.

       dumpgraph
           Dump graph to stderr.

       Examples

       •   Create a color video stream and play it back with ffplay:

                   ffplay -f lavfi -graph "color=c=pink [out0]" dummy

       •   As the previous example, but use filename for specifying the graph description, and
           omit the "out0" label:

                   ffplay -f lavfi color=c=pink

       •   Create three different video test filtered sources and play them:

                   ffplay -f lavfi -graph "testsrc [out0]; testsrc,hflip [out1]; testsrc,negate [out2]" test3

       •   Read an audio stream from a file using the amovie source and play it back with ffplay:

                   ffplay -f lavfi "amovie=test.wav"

       •   Read an audio stream and a video stream and play it back with ffplay:

                   ffplay -f lavfi "movie=test.avi[out0];amovie=test.wav[out1]"

       •   Dump decoded frames to images and closed captions to a file (experimental):

                   ffmpeg -f lavfi -i "movie=test.ts[out0+subcc]" -map v frame%08d.png -map s -c copy -f rawvideo subcc.bin

   libcdio
       Audio-CD input device based on libcdio.

       To enable this input device during configuration you need libcdio installed on your
       system. It requires the configure option "--enable-libcdio".

       This device allows playing and grabbing from an Audio-CD.

       For example to copy with ffmpeg the entire Audio-CD in /dev/sr0, you may run the command:

               ffmpeg -f libcdio -i /dev/sr0 cd.wav

       Options

       speed
           Set drive reading speed. Default value is 0.

           The speed is specified CD-ROM speed units. The speed is set through the libcdio
           "cdio_cddap_speed_set" function. On many CD-ROM drives, specifying a value too large
           will result in using the fastest speed.

       paranoia_mode
           Set paranoia recovery mode flags. It accepts one of the following values:

           disable
           verify
           overlap
           neverskip
           full

           Default value is disable.

           For more information about the available recovery modes, consult the paranoia project
           documentation.

   libdc1394
       IIDC1394 input device, based on libdc1394 and libraw1394.

       Requires the configure option "--enable-libdc1394".

   openal
       The OpenAL input device provides audio capture on all systems with a working OpenAL 1.1
       implementation.

       To enable this input device during configuration, you need OpenAL headers and libraries
       installed on your system, and need to configure FFmpeg with "--enable-openal".

       OpenAL headers and libraries should be provided as part of your OpenAL implementation, or
       as an additional download (an SDK). Depending on your installation you may need to specify
       additional flags via the "--extra-cflags" and "--extra-ldflags" for allowing the build
       system to locate the OpenAL headers and libraries.

       An incomplete list of OpenAL implementations follows:

       Creative
           The official Windows implementation, providing hardware acceleration with supported
           devices and software fallback.  See <http://openal.org/>.

       OpenAL Soft
           Portable, open source (LGPL) software implementation. Includes backends for the most
           common sound APIs on the Windows, Linux, Solaris, and BSD operating systems.  See
           <http://kcat.strangesoft.net/openal.html>.

       Apple
           OpenAL is part of Core Audio, the official Mac OS X Audio interface.  See
           <http://developer.apple.com/technologies/mac/audio-and-video.html>

       This device allows one to capture from an audio input device handled through OpenAL.

       You need to specify the name of the device to capture in the provided filename. If the
       empty string is provided, the device will automatically select the default device. You can
       get the list of the supported devices by using the option list_devices.

       Options

       channels
           Set the number of channels in the captured audio. Only the values 1 (monaural) and 2
           (stereo) are currently supported.  Defaults to 2.

       sample_size
           Set the sample size (in bits) of the captured audio. Only the values 8 and 16 are
           currently supported. Defaults to 16.

       sample_rate
           Set the sample rate (in Hz) of the captured audio.  Defaults to 44.1k.

       list_devices
           If set to true, print a list of devices and exit.  Defaults to false.

       Examples

       Print the list of OpenAL supported devices and exit:

               $ ffmpeg -list_devices true -f openal -i dummy out.ogg

       Capture from the OpenAL device DR-BT101 via PulseAudio:

               $ ffmpeg -f openal -i 'DR-BT101 via PulseAudio' out.ogg

       Capture from the default device (note the empty string '' as filename):

               $ ffmpeg -f openal -i '' out.ogg

       Capture from two devices simultaneously, writing to two different files, within the same
       ffmpeg command:

               $ ffmpeg -f openal -i 'DR-BT101 via PulseAudio' out1.ogg -f openal -i 'ALSA Default' out2.ogg

       Note: not all OpenAL implementations support multiple simultaneous capture - try the
       latest OpenAL Soft if the above does not work.

   oss
       Open Sound System input device.

       The filename to provide to the input device is the device node representing the OSS input
       device, and is usually set to /dev/dsp.

       For example to grab from /dev/dsp using ffmpeg use the command:

               ffmpeg -f oss -i /dev/dsp /tmp/oss.wav

       For more information about OSS see: <http://manuals.opensound.com/usersguide/dsp.html>

       Options

       sample_rate
           Set the sample rate in Hz. Default is 48000.

       channels
           Set the number of channels. Default is 2.

   pulse
       PulseAudio input device.

       To enable this output device you need to configure FFmpeg with "--enable-libpulse".

       The filename to provide to the input device is a source device or the string "default"

       To list the PulseAudio source devices and their properties you can invoke the command
       pactl list sources.

       More information about PulseAudio can be found on <http://www.pulseaudio.org>.

           is used when not provided.

       name
           Specify the application name PulseAudio will use when showing active clients, by
           default it is the "LIBAVFORMAT_IDENT" string.

       stream_name
           Specify the stream name PulseAudio will use when showing active streams, by default it
           is "record".

       sample_rate
           Specify the samplerate in Hz, by default 48kHz is used.

       channels
           Specify the channels in use, by default 2 (stereo) is set.

           Specify the number of bytes per frame, by default it is set to 1024.

       fragment_size
           Specify the minimal buffering fragment in PulseAudio, it will affect the audio
           latency. By default it is unset.

       wallclock
           Set the initial PTS using the current time. Default is 1.

       Examples

       Record a stream from default device:

               ffmpeg -f pulse -i default /tmp/pulse.wav

   sndio
       sndio input device.

       To enable this input device during configuration you need libsndio installed on your
       system.

       The filename to provide to the input device is the device node representing the sndio
       input device, and is usually set to /dev/audio0.

       For example to grab from /dev/audio0 using ffmpeg use the command:

               ffmpeg -f sndio -i /dev/audio0 /tmp/oss.wav

       Options

       sample_rate
           Set the sample rate in Hz. Default is 48000.

       channels
           Set the number of channels. Default is 2.

   video4linux2, v4l2
       Video4Linux2 input video device.

       "v4l2" can be used as alias for "video4linux2".

       If FFmpeg is built with v4l-utils support (by using the "--enable-libv4l2" configure
       option), it is possible to use it with the "-use_libv4l2" input device option.

       The name of the device to grab is a file device node, usually Linux systems tend to
       automatically create such nodes when the device (e.g. an USB webcam) is plugged into the
       system, and has a name of the kind /dev/videoN, where N is a number associated to the
       device.

       Video4Linux2 devices usually support a limited set of widthxheight sizes and frame rates.
       You can check which are supported using -list_formats all for Video4Linux2 devices.  Some
       devices, like TV cards, support one or more standards. It is possible to list all the
       supported standards using -list_standards all.

       The time base for the timestamps is 1 microsecond. Depending on the kernel version and
       configuration, the timestamps may be derived from the real time clock (origin at the Unix
       Epoch) or the monotonic clock (origin usually at boot time, unaffected by NTP or manual
       changes to the clock). The -timestamps abs or -ts abs option can be used to force
       conversion into the real time clock.

       Some usage examples of the video4linux2 device with ffmpeg and ffplay:

       •   List supported formats for a video4linux2 device:

                   ffplay -f video4linux2 -list_formats all /dev/video0

       •   Grab and show the input of a video4linux2 device:

                   ffplay -f video4linux2 -framerate 30 -video_size hd720 /dev/video0

       •   Grab and record the input of a video4linux2 device, leave the frame rate and size as
           previously set:

                   ffmpeg -f video4linux2 -input_format mjpeg -i /dev/video0 out.mpeg

       For more information about Video4Linux, check <http://linuxtv.org/>.

       framerate
           Set the grabbing frame rate. Default value is "ntsc", corresponding to a frame rate of
           "30000/1001".

   x11grab
       X11 video input device.

       To enable this input device during configuration you need libxcb installed on your system.
       It will be automatically detected during configuration.

       This device allows one to capture a region of an X11 display.

       The filename passed as input has the syntax:

               [<hostname>]:<display_number>.<screen_number>[+<x_offset>,<y_offset>]

       hostname:display_number.screen_number specifies the X11 display name of the screen to grab
       from. hostname can be omitted, and defaults to "localhost". The environment variable
       DISPLAY contains the default display name.

       x_offset and y_offset specify the offsets of the grabbed area with respect to the top-left
       border of the X11 screen. They default to 0.

       Check the X11 documentation (e.g. man X) for more detailed information.

       Use the xdpyinfo program for getting basic information about the properties of your X11
       display (e.g. grep for "name" or "dimensions").

       For example to grab from :0.0 using ffmpeg:

               ffmpeg -f x11grab -framerate 25 -video_size cif -i :0.0 out.mpg

       Grab at position "10,20":

               ffmpeg -f x11grab -framerate 25 -video_size cif -i :0.0+10,20 out.mpg

       Options

       draw_mouse
           Specify whether to draw the mouse pointer. A value of 0 specifies not to draw the
           pointer. Default value is 1.

       follow_mouse
           Make the grabbed area follow the mouse. The argument can be "centered" or a number of
           pixels PIXELS.

           When it is specified with "centered", the grabbing region follows the mouse pointer
           and keeps the pointer at the center of region; otherwise, the region follows only when
           the mouse pointer reaches within PIXELS (greater than zero) to the edge of region.

           For example:

                   ffmpeg -f x11grab -follow_mouse centered -framerate 25 -video_size cif -i :0.0 out.mpg

           To follow only when the mouse pointer reaches within 100 pixels to edge:

                   ffmpeg -f x11grab -follow_mouse 100 -framerate 25 -video_size cif -i :0.0 out.mpg

       framerate
           Set the grabbing frame rate. Default value is "ntsc", corresponding to a frame rate of
           "30000/1001".

       show_region
           Show grabbed region on screen.

           If show_region is specified with 1, then the grabbing region will be indicated on
           screen. With this option, it is easy to know what is being grabbed if only a portion
           of the screen is grabbed.

       region_border
           Set the region border thickness if -show_region 1 is used.  Range is 1 to 128 and
           default is 3 (XCB-based x11grab only).

           For example:

                   ffmpeg -f x11grab -show_region 1 -framerate 25 -video_size cif -i :0.0+10,20 out.mpg

           With follow_mouse:

                   ffmpeg -f x11grab -follow_mouse centered -show_region 1 -framerate 25 -video_size cif -i :0.0 out.mpg

       video_size
           Set the video frame size. Default value is "vga".

       grab_x
       grab_y
           Set the grabbing region coordinates. They are expressed as offset from the top left
           corner of the X11 window and correspond to the x_offset and y_offset parameters in the
           device name. The default value for both options is 0.

RESAMPLER OPTIONS

       The audio resampler supports the following named options.

       Options may be set by specifying -option value in the FFmpeg tools, option=value for the
       aresample filter, by setting the value explicitly in the "SwrContext" options or using the
       libavutil/opt.h API for programmatic use.

       ich, in_channel_count
           Set the number of input channels. Default value is 0. Setting this value is not
           mandatory if the corresponding channel layout in_channel_layout is set.

       och, out_channel_count
           Set the number of output channels. Default value is 0. Setting this value is not
           mandatory if the corresponding channel layout out_channel_layout is set.

       uch, used_channel_count
           Set the number of used input channels. Default value is 0. This option is only used

           chosen when it is not explicitly set.

       icl, in_channel_layout
       ocl, out_channel_layout
           Set the input/output channel layout.

           See the Channel Layout section in the ffmpeg-utils(1) manual for the required syntax.

       clev, center_mix_level
           Set the center mix level. It is a value expressed in deciBel, and must be in the
           interval [-32,32].

       slev, surround_mix_level
           Set the surround mix level. It is a value expressed in deciBel, and must be in the
           interval [-32,32].

       lfe_mix_level
           Set LFE mix into non LFE level. It is used when there is a LFE input but no LFE
           output. It is a value expressed in deciBel, and must be in the interval [-32,32].

       rmvol, rematrix_volume
           Set rematrix volume. Default value is 1.0.

       rematrix_maxval
           Set maximum output value for rematrixing.  This can be used to prevent clipping vs.
           preventing volume reduction.  A value of 1.0 prevents clipping.

       flags, swr_flags
           Set flags used by the converter. Default value is 0.

           It supports the following individual flags:

           res force resampling, this flag forces resampling to be used even when the input and
               output sample rates match.

       dither_scale
           Set the dither scale. Default value is 1.

               select modified-e-weighted noise shaping dither

           improved_e_weighted
               select improved-e-weighted noise shaping dither

       resampler
           Set resampling engine. Default value is swr.

           Supported values:

           swr select the native SW Resampler; filter options precision and cheby are not
               applicable in this case.

           soxr
               select the SoX Resampler (where available); compensation, and filter options
               filter_size, phase_shift, exact_rational, filter_type & kaiser_beta, are not
               applicable in this case.

       filter_size
           For swr only, set resampling filter size, default value is 32.

       phase_shift
           For swr only, set resampling phase shift, default value is 10, and must be in the
           interval [0,30].

       linear_interp
           Use linear interpolation when enabled (the default). Disable it if you want to
           preserve speed instead of quality when exact_rational fails.

       exact_rational
           For swr only, when enabled, try to use exact phase_count based on input and output
           sample rate. However, if it is larger than "1 << phase_shift", the phase_count will be
           "1 << phase_shift" as fallback. Default is enabled.

       cutoff
           Set cutoff frequency (swr: 6dB point; soxr: 0dB point) ratio; must be a float value
           between 0 and 1.  Default value is 0.97 with swr, and 0.91 with soxr (which, with a
           sample-rate of 44100, preserves the entire audio band to 20kHz).

       precision
           For soxr only, the precision in bits to which the resampled signal will be calculated.
           The default value of 20 (which, with suitable dithering, is appropriate for a
           destination bit-depth of 16) gives SoX's 'High Quality'; a value of 28 gives SoX's
           'Very High Quality'.

       cheby
           For soxr only, selects passband rolloff none (Chebyshev) & higher-precision
           approximation for 'irrational' ratios. Default value is 0.

       async
           For swr only, simple 1 parameter audio sync to timestamps using stretching, squeezing,
           filling and trimming. Setting this to 1 will enable filling and trimming, larger
           values represent the maximum amount in samples that the data may be stretched or
           squeezed for each second.  Default value is 0, thus no compensation is applied to make
           the samples match the audio timestamps.

       first_pts
           For swr only, assume the first pts should be this value. The time unit is 1 / sample
           rate.  This allows for padding/trimming at the start of stream. By default, no
           assumption is made about the first frame's expected pts, so no padding or trimming is
           done. For example, this could be set to 0 to pad the beginning with silence if an
           audio stream starts after the video stream or to trim any samples with a negative pts
           due to encoder delay.

       min_comp
           For swr only, set the minimum difference between timestamps and audio data (in
           seconds) to trigger stretching/squeezing/filling or trimming of the data to make it
           match the timestamps. The default is that stretching/squeezing/filling and trimming is
           disabled (min_comp = "FLT_MAX").

       min_hard_comp
           For swr only, set the minimum difference between timestamps and audio data (in
           seconds) to trigger adding/dropping samples to make it match the timestamps.  This
           option effectively is a threshold to select between hard (trim/fill) and soft
           (squeeze/stretch) compensation. Note that all compensation is by default disabled
           through min_comp.  The default is 0.1.

       comp_duration
           For swr only, set duration (in seconds) over which data is stretched/squeezed to make
           it match the timestamps. Must be a non-negative double float value, default value is
           1.0.

       max_soft_comp
           For swr only, set maximum factor by which data is stretched/squeezed to make it match
           the timestamps. Must be a non-negative double float value, default value is 0.

       matrix_encoding
           Select matrixed stereo encoding.

           It accepts the following values:

           none
               select none

           dolby
               select Dolby

           dplii
               select Dolby Pro Logic II

           Default value is "none".

       filter_type
           For swr only, select resampling filter type. This only affects resampling operations.

           It accepts the following values:

           cubic
               select cubic

           blackman_nuttall
               select Blackman Nuttall windowed sinc

           kaiser
               select Kaiser windowed sinc

       kaiser_beta
           For swr only, set Kaiser window beta value. Must be a double float value in the
           interval [2,16], default value is 9.

       output_sample_bits
           For swr only, set number of used output sample bits for dithering. Must be an integer
           in the interval [0,64], default value is 0, which means it's not used.

SCALER OPTIONS

       The video scaler supports the following named options.

       Options may be set by specifying -option value in the FFmpeg tools. For programmatic use,
       they can be set explicitly in the "SwsContext" options or through the libavutil/opt.h API.

       sws_flags

FILTERING INTRODUCTION

       Filtering in FFmpeg is enabled through the libavfilter library.

       In libavfilter, a filter can have multiple inputs and multiple outputs.  To illustrate the
       sorts of things that are possible, we consider the following filtergraph.

                               [main]
               input --> split ---------------------> overlay --> output
                           |                             ^
                           |[tmp]                  [flip]|
                           +-----> crop --> vflip -------+

       This filtergraph splits the input stream in two streams, then sends one stream through the
       crop filter and the vflip filter, before merging it back with the other stream by
       overlaying it on top. You can use the following command to achieve this:

               ffmpeg -i INPUT -vf "split [main][tmp]; [tmp] crop=iw:ih/2:0:0, vflip [flip]; [main][flip] overlay=0:H/2" OUTPUT

       The result will be that the top half of the video is mirrored onto the bottom half of the
       output video.

       Filters in the same linear chain are separated by commas, and distinct linear chains of
       filters are separated by semicolons. In our example, crop,vflip are in one linear chain,
       split and overlay are separately in another. The points where the linear chains join are
       labelled by names enclosed in square brackets. In the example, the split filter generates
       two outputs that are associated to the labels [main] and [tmp].

       The stream sent to the second output of split, labelled as [tmp], is processed through the
       crop filter, which crops away the lower half part of the video, and then vertically
       flipped. The overlay filter takes in input the first unchanged output of the split filter
       (which was labelled as [main]), and overlay on its lower half the output generated by the
       crop,vflip filterchain.

       Some filters take in input a list of parameters: they are specified after the filter name
       and an equal sign, and are separated from each other by a colon.

       There exist so-called source filters that do not have an audio/video input, and sink
       filters that will not have audio/video output.

GRAPH

       The graph2dot program included in the FFmpeg tools directory can be used to parse a
       filtergraph description and issue a corresponding textual representation in the dot
       language.

       Invoke the command:

               graph2dot -h

       to see how to use graph2dot.

       You can then pass the dot description to the dot program (from the graphviz suite of
       programs) and obtain a graphical representation of the filtergraph.

       For example the sequence of commands:

               echo <GRAPH_DESCRIPTION> | \
               tools/graph2dot -o graph.tmp && \
               dot -Tpng graph.tmp -o graph.png && \
               display graph.png

       can be used to create and display an image representing the graph described by the
       GRAPH_DESCRIPTION string. Note that this string must be a complete self-contained graph,
       with its inputs and outputs explicitly defined.  For example if your command line is of
       the form:

               ffmpeg -i infile -vf scale=640:360 outfile

       your GRAPH_DESCRIPTION string will need to be of the form:

               nullsrc,scale=640:360,nullsink

       you may also need to set the nullsrc parameters and add a format filter in order to
       simulate a specific input file.

FILTERGRAPH DESCRIPTION

       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 one filter accepting its output.

       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.

       A filter with no input pads is called a "source", and a filter with no output pads is
       called a "sink".

   Filtergraph syntax
       A filtergraph has a textual representation, which is recognized by the -filter/-vf/-af and
       -filter_complex options in ffmpeg and -vf/-af in ffplay, and by the
       "avfilter_graph_parse_ptr()" function defined in libavfilter/avfilter.h.

       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.

       A filtergraph consists of a sequence of filterchains. A sequence of filterchains is
       represented by a list of ";"-separated filterchain descriptions.

       A filter is represented by a string of the form:
       [in_link_1]...[in_link_N]filter_name@id=arguments[out_link_1]...[out_link_M]

       filter_name 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
       optionally followed by "@id".  The name of the filter class is optionally followed by a
       string "=arguments".

       arguments is a string which contains the parameters used to initialize the filter
       instance. It may have one of two forms:

       •   A ':'-separated list of key=value pairs.

       •   A ':'-separated list of value. In this case, the keys are assumed to be the option
           names in the order they are declared. E.g. the "fade" filter declares three options in
           this order -- type, start_frame and nb_frames. Then the parameter list in:0:30 means
           that the value in is assigned to the option type, 0 to start_frame and 30 to
           nb_frames.

       •   A ':'-separated list of mixed direct value and long key=value pairs. The direct value
           must precede the key=value pairs, and follow the same constraints order of the
           previous point. The following key=value pairs can be set in any preferred order.

       If the option value itself is a list of items (e.g. the "format" filter takes a list of
       pixel formats), the items in the list are usually separated by |.

       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.

       The name and arguments of the filter are optionally preceded and followed by a list of
       link labels.  A link label allows one to name a link and associate it to a filter output
       or input pad. The preceding labels in_link_1 ... in_link_N, are associated to the filter
       input pads, the following labels out_link_1 ... out_link_M, are associated to the output
       pads.

       When two link labels with the same name are found in the filtergraph, a link between the
       corresponding input and output pad is created.

       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

               nullsrc, split[L1], [L2]overlay, nullsink

       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.

       In a filter description, if the input label of the first filter is not specified, "in" is
       assumed; if the output label of the last filter is not specified, "out" is assumed.

       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.

       Libavfilter will automatically insert scale filters where format conversion is required.
       It is possible to specify swscale flags for those automatically inserted scalers by
       prepending "sws_flags=flags;" to the filtergraph description.

       Here is a BNF description of the filtergraph syntax:

               <NAME>             ::= sequence of alphanumeric characters and '_'
               <FILTER_NAME>      ::= <NAME>["@"<NAME>]
               <LINKLABEL>        ::= "[" <NAME> "]"
               <LINKLABELS>       ::= <LINKLABEL> [<LINKLABELS>]
               <FILTER_ARGUMENTS> ::= sequence of chars (possibly quoted)
               <FILTER>           ::= [<LINKLABELS>] <FILTER_NAME> ["=" <FILTER_ARGUMENTS>] [<LINKLABELS>]
               <FILTERCHAIN>      ::= <FILTER> [,<FILTERCHAIN>]
               <FILTERGRAPH>      ::= [sws_flags=<flags>;] <FILTERCHAIN> [;<FILTERGRAPH>]

   Notes on filtergraph escaping
       Filtergraph description composition entails several levels of escaping. See the "Quoting
       and escaping" section in the ffmpeg-utils(1) manual for more information about the
       employed escaping procedure.

       A first level escaping affects the content of each filter option value, which may contain
       the special character ":" used to separate values, or one of the escaping characters "\'".

       A second level escaping affects the whole filter description, which may contain the
       escaping characters "\'" or the special characters "[],;" used by the filtergraph
       description.

       Finally, when you specify a filtergraph on a shell commandline, you need to perform a
       third level escaping for the shell special characters contained within it.

       For example, consider the following string to be embedded in the drawtext filter
       description text value:

               this is a 'string': may contain one, or more, special characters

       This string contains the "'" special escaping character, and the ":" special character, so
       it needs to be escaped in this way:

               text=this is a \'string\'\: may contain one, or more, special characters

       A second level of escaping is required when embedding the filter description in a
       filtergraph description, in order to escape all the filtergraph special characters. Thus
       the example above becomes:

               drawtext=text=this is a \\\'string\\\'\\: may contain one\, or more\, special characters

       (note that in addition to the "\'" escaping special characters, also "," needs to be
       escaped).

       Finally an additional level of escaping is needed when writing the filtergraph description
       in a shell command, which depends on the escaping rules of the adopted shell. For example,
       assuming that "\" is special and needs to be escaped with another "\", the previous string
       will finally result in:

               -vf "drawtext=text=this is a \\\\\\'string\\\\\\'\\\\: may contain one\\, or more\\, special characters"

TIMELINE EDITING

       Some filters support a generic enable option. For the filters supporting timeline editing,
       this option can be set to an expression which is evaluated before sending a frame to the
       filter. If the evaluation is non-zero, the filter will be enabled, otherwise the frame
       will be sent unchanged to the next filter in the filtergraph.

       The expression accepts the following values:

       t   timestamp expressed in seconds, NAN if the input timestamp is unknown

       n   sequential number of the input frame, starting from 0

       pos the position in the file of the input frame, NAN if unknown

       w
       h   width and height of the input frame if video

       Additionally, these filters support an enable command that can be used to re-define the
       expression.

       Like any other filtering option, the enable option follows the same rules.

       For example, to enable a blur filter (smartblur) from 10 seconds to 3 minutes, and a
       curves filter starting at 3 seconds:

               smartblur = enable='between(t,10,3*60)',
               curves    = enable='gte(t,3)' : preset=cross_process

       See "ffmpeg -filters" to view which filters have timeline support.

OPTIONS FOR FILTERS WITH SEVERAL INPUTS

       Some filters with several inputs support a common set of options.  These options can only
       be set by name, not with the short notation.

       eof_action
           The action to take when EOF is encountered on the secondary input; it accepts one of
           the following values:

           repeat
               Repeat the last frame (the default).

           endall
               End both streams.

           pass
               Pass the main input through.

       shortest
           If set to 1, force the output to terminate when the shortest input terminates. Default
           value is 0.

       repeatlast
           If set to 1, force the filter to extend the last frame of secondary streams until the
           end of the primary stream. A value of 0 disables this behavior.  Default value is 1.

AUDIO FILTERS

       When you configure your FFmpeg build, you can disable any of the existing filters using
       "--disable-filters".  The configure output will show the audio filters included in your
       build.

       Below is a description of the currently available audio filters.

   acompressor
       A compressor is mainly used to reduce the dynamic range of a signal.  Especially modern
       music is mostly compressed at a high ratio to improve the overall loudness. It's done to
       get the highest attention of a listener, "fatten" the sound and bring more "power" to the
       track.  If a signal is compressed too much it may sound dull or "dead" afterwards or it
       may start to "pump" (which could be a powerful effect but can also destroy a track
       completely).  The right compression is the key to reach a professional sound and is the
       high art of mixing and mastering. Because of its complex settings it may take a long time
       to get the right feeling for this kind of effect.

       Compression is done by detecting the volume above a chosen level "threshold" and dividing
       it by the factor set with "ratio".  So if you set the threshold to -12dB and your signal
       reaches -6dB a ratio of 2:1 will result in a signal at -9dB. Because an exact manipulation
       of the signal would cause distortion of the waveform the reduction can be levelled over
       the time. This is done by setting "Attack" and "Release".  "attack" determines how long
       the signal has to rise above the threshold before any reduction will occur and "release"
       sets the time the signal has to fall below the threshold to reduce the reduction again.
       Shorter signals than the chosen attack time will be left untouched.  The overall reduction
       of the signal can be made up afterwards with the "makeup" setting. So compressing the
       peaks of a signal about 6dB and raising the makeup to this level results in a signal twice
       as loud than the source. To gain a softer entry in the compression the "knee" flattens the
       hard edge at the threshold in the range of the chosen decibels.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       level_in
           Set input gain. Default is 1. Range is between 0.015625 and 64.

       threshold
           If a signal of stream rises above this level it will affect the gain reduction.  By
           default it is 0.125. Range is between 0.00097563 and 1.

       ratio
           Set a ratio by which the signal is reduced. 1:2 means that if the level rose 4dB above
           the threshold, it will be only 2dB above after the reduction.  Default is 2. Range is
           between 1 and 20.

       attack
           Amount of milliseconds the signal has to rise above the threshold before gain
           reduction starts. Default is 20. Range is between 0.01 and 2000.

       release
           Amount of milliseconds the signal has to fall below the threshold before reduction is
           decreased again. Default is 250. Range is between 0.01 and 9000.

       makeup
           Set the amount by how much signal will be amplified after processing.  Default is 1.
           Range is from 1 to 64.

       knee
           Curve the sharp knee around the threshold to enter gain reduction more softly.
           Default is 2.82843. Range is between 1 and 8.

       link
           Choose if the "average" level between all channels of input stream or the
           louder("maximum") channel of input stream affects the reduction. Default is "average".

       detection
           Should the exact signal be taken in case of "peak" or an RMS one in case of "rms".
           Default is "rms" which is mostly smoother.

       mix How much to use compressed signal in output. Default is 1.  Range is between 0 and 1.

   acopy
       Copy the input audio source unchanged to the output. This is mainly useful for testing
       purposes.

   acrossfade
       Apply cross fade from one input audio stream to another input audio stream.  The cross
       fade is applied for specified duration near the end of first stream.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       nb_samples, ns
           Specify the number of samples for which the cross fade effect has to last.  At the end
           of the cross fade effect the first input audio will be completely silent. Default is
           44100.

       duration, d
           Specify the duration of the cross fade effect. See the Time duration section in the
           ffmpeg-utils(1) manual for the accepted syntax.  By default the duration is determined
           by nb_samples.  If set this option is used instead of nb_samples.

       overlap, o
           Should first stream end overlap with second stream start. Default is enabled.

       curve1
           Set curve for cross fade transition for first stream.

       curve2
           Set curve for cross fade transition for second stream.

           For description of available curve types see afade filter description.

       Examples

       •   Cross fade from one input to another:

                   ffmpeg -i first.flac -i second.flac -filter_complex acrossfade=d=10:c1=exp:c2=exp output.flac

       •   Cross fade from one input to another but without overlapping:

                   ffmpeg -i first.flac -i second.flac -filter_complex acrossfade=d=10:o=0:c1=exp:c2=exp output.flac

   acrusher
       Reduce audio bit resolution.

       This filter is bit crusher with enhanced functionality. A bit crusher is used to audibly
       reduce number of bits an audio signal is sampled with. This doesn't change the bit depth
       at all, it just produces the effect. Material reduced in bit depth sounds more harsh and
       "digital".  This filter is able to even round to continuous values instead of discrete bit
       depths.  Additionally it has a D/C offset which results in different crushing of the lower
       and the upper half of the signal.  An Anti-Aliasing setting is able to produce "softer"
       crushing sounds.

       Another feature of this filter is the logarithmic mode.  This setting switches from linear
       distances between bits to logarithmic ones.  The result is a much more "natural" sounding
       crusher which doesn't gate low signals for example. The human ear has a logarithmic
       perception, too so this kind of crushing is much more pleasant.  Logarithmic crushing is
       also able to get anti-aliased.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       level_in
           Set level in.

       level_out
           Set level out.

       bits
           Set bit reduction.

       mix Set mixing amount.

       mode
           Can be linear: "lin" or logarithmic: "log".

       dc  Set DC.

       aa  Set anti-aliasing.

       samples
           Set sample reduction.

       lfo Enable LFO. By default disabled.

       lforange
           Set LFO range.

       lforate
           Set LFO rate.

   adelay
       Delay one or more audio channels.

       Samples in delayed channel are filled with silence.

       The filter accepts the following option:

       delays
           Set list of delays in milliseconds for each channel separated by '|'.  Unused delays
           will be silently ignored. If number of given delays is smaller than number of channels
           all remaining channels will not be delayed.  If you want to delay exact number of
           samples, append 'S' to number.

       Examples

       •   Delay first channel by 1.5 seconds, the third channel by 0.5 seconds and leave the
           second channel (and any other channels that may be present) unchanged.

                   adelay=1500|0|500

       •   Delay second channel by 500 samples, the third channel by 700 samples and leave the
           first channel (and any other channels that may be present) unchanged.

                   adelay=0|500S|700S

   aecho
       Apply echoing to the input audio.

       Echoes are reflected sound and can occur naturally amongst mountains (and sometimes large
       buildings) when talking or shouting; digital echo effects emulate this behaviour and are
       often used to help fill out the sound of a single instrument or vocal. The time difference
       between the original signal and the reflection is the "delay", and the loudness of the
       reflected signal is the "decay".  Multiple echoes can have different delays and decays.

       A description of the accepted parameters follows.

       in_gain
           Set input gain of reflected signal. Default is 0.6.

       out_gain
           Set output gain of reflected signal. Default is 0.3.

       delays
           Set list of time intervals in milliseconds between original signal and reflections
           separated by '|'. Allowed range for each "delay" is "(0 - 90000.0]".  Default is 1000.

       decays
           Set list of loudness of reflected signals separated by '|'.  Allowed range for each
           "decay" is "(0 - 1.0]".  Default is 0.5.

       Examples

       •   Make it sound as if there are twice as many instruments as are actually playing:

                   aecho=0.8:0.88:60:0.4

       •   If delay is very short, then it sound like a (metallic) robot playing music:

                   aecho=0.8:0.88:6:0.4

       •   A longer delay will sound like an open air concert in the mountains:

                   aecho=0.8:0.9:1000:0.3

       •   Same as above but with one more mountain:

                   aecho=0.8:0.9:1000|1800:0.3|0.25

   aemphasis
       Audio emphasis filter creates or restores material directly taken from LPs or emphased CDs
       with different filter curves. E.g. to store music on vinyl the signal has to be altered by
       a filter first to even out the disadvantages of this recording medium.  Once the material
       is played back the inverse filter has to be applied to restore the distortion of the
       frequency response.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       level_in
           Set input gain.

       level_out
           Set output gain.

       mode
           Set filter mode. For restoring material use "reproduction" mode, otherwise use
           "production" mode. Default is "reproduction" mode.

       type
           Set filter type. Selects medium. Can be one of the following:

           col select Columbia.

           emi select EMI.

           bsi select BSI (78RPM).

           riaa
               select RIAA.

           cd  select Compact Disc (CD).

           50fm
               select 50Xs (FM).

           75fm
               select 75Xs (FM).

           50kf
               select 50Xs (FM-KF).

           75kf
               select 75Xs (FM-KF).

   aeval
       Modify an audio signal according to the specified expressions.

       This filter accepts one or more expressions (one for each channel), which are evaluated
       and used to modify a corresponding audio signal.

       It accepts the following parameters:

       exprs
           Set the '|'-separated expressions list for each separate channel. If the number of
           input channels is greater than the number of expressions, the last specified
           expression is used for the remaining output channels.

       channel_layout, c
           Set output channel layout. If not specified, the channel layout is specified by the
           number of expressions. If set to same, it will use by default the same input channel
           layout.

       Each expression in exprs can contain the following constants and functions:

       ch  channel number of the current expression

       n   number of the evaluated sample, starting from 0

       s   sample rate

       t   time of the evaluated sample expressed in seconds

       nb_in_channels
       nb_out_channels
           input and output number of channels

       val(CH)
           the value of input channel with number CH

       Note: this filter is slow. For faster processing you should use a dedicated filter.

       Examples

       •   Half volume:

                   aeval=val(ch)/2:c=same

       •   Invert phase of the second channel:

                   aeval=val(0)|-val(1)

   afade
       Apply fade-in/out effect to input audio.

       A description of the accepted parameters follows.

       type, t
           Specify the effect type, can be either "in" for fade-in, or "out" for a fade-out
           effect. Default is "in".

       start_sample, ss
           Specify the number of the start sample for starting to apply the fade effect. Default
           is 0.

       nb_samples, ns
           Specify the number of samples for which the fade effect has to last. At the end of the
           fade-in effect the output audio will have the same volume as the input audio, at the
           end of the fade-out transition the output audio will be silence. Default is 44100.

       start_time, st
           Specify the start time of the fade effect. Default is 0.  The value must be specified
           as a time duration; see the Time duration section in the ffmpeg-utils(1) manual for
           the accepted syntax.  If set this option is used instead of start_sample.

       duration, d
           Specify the duration of the fade effect. See the Time duration section in the
           ffmpeg-utils(1) manual for the accepted syntax.  At the end of the fade-in effect the
           output audio will have the same volume as the input audio, at the end of the fade-out
           transition the output audio will be silence.  By default the duration is determined by
           nb_samples.  If set this option is used instead of nb_samples.

       curve

                   afade=t=in:ss=0:d=15

       •   Fade out last 25 seconds of a 900 seconds audio:

                   afade=t=out:st=875:d=25

   afftfilt
       Apply arbitrary expressions to samples in frequency domain.

       real
           Set frequency domain real expression for each separate channel separated by '|'.
           Default is "1".  If the number of input channels is greater than the number of
           expressions, the last specified expression is used for the remaining output channels.

       imag
           Set frequency domain imaginary expression for each separate channel separated by '|'.
           If not set, real option is used.

           Each expression in real and imag can contain the following constants:

           pts current frame pts

       win_size
           Set window size.

           It accepts the following values:

           w16
           w32
           w64
           w128
           w256

           w65536

           Default is "w4096"

       win_func
           Set window function. Default is "hann".

       overlap
           Set window overlap. If set to 1, the recommended overlap for selected window function
           will be picked. Default is 0.75.

       Examples

       •   Leave almost only low frequencies in audio:

                   afftfilt="1-clip((b/nb)*b,0,1)"

   afir
       Apply an arbitrary Frequency Impulse Response filter.

       This filter is designed for applying long FIR filters, up to 30 seconds long.

       It can be used as component for digital crossover filters, room equalization, cross talk
       cancellation, wavefield synthesis, auralization, ambiophonics and ambisonics.

       This filter uses second stream as FIR coefficients.  If second stream holds single
       channel, it will be used for all input channels in first stream, otherwise number of
       channels in second stream must be same as number of channels in first stream.

       It accepts the following parameters:

       dry Set dry gain. This sets input gain.

       wet Set wet gain. This sets final output gain.

       length
           Set Impulse Response filter length. Default is 1, which means whole IR is processed.

       again
           Enable applying gain measured from power of IR.

       Examples

       •   Apply reverb to stream using mono IR file as second input, complete command using
           ffmpeg:

                   ffmpeg -i input.wav -i middle_tunnel_1way_mono.wav -lavfi afir output.wav

   aformat
       Set output format constraints for the input audio. The framework will negotiate the most
       appropriate format to minimize conversions.

       It accepts the following parameters:

       sample_fmts
           A '|'-separated list of requested sample formats.

       sample_rates
           A '|'-separated list of requested sample rates.

       channel_layouts
           A '|'-separated list of requested channel layouts.

           See the Channel Layout section in the ffmpeg-utils(1) manual for the required syntax.

       If a parameter is omitted, all values are allowed.

       Force the output to either unsigned 8-bit or signed 16-bit stereo

               aformat=sample_fmts=u8|s16:channel_layouts=stereo

   agate
       A gate is mainly used to reduce lower parts of a signal. This kind of signal processing
       reduces disturbing noise between useful signals.

       Gating is done by detecting the volume below a chosen level threshold and dividing it by
       the factor set with ratio. The bottom of the noise floor is set via range. Because an
       exact manipulation of the signal would cause distortion of the waveform the reduction can
       be levelled over time. This is done by setting attack and release.

       attack determines how long the signal has to fall below the threshold before any reduction
       will occur and release sets the time the signal has to rise above the threshold to reduce
       the reduction again.  Shorter signals than the chosen attack time will be left untouched.

       level_in
           Set input level before filtering.  Default is 1. Allowed range is from 0.015625 to 64.

       range
           Set the level of gain reduction when the signal is below the threshold.  Default is
           0.06125. Allowed range is from 0 to 1.

       threshold
           If a signal rises above this level the gain reduction is released.  Default is 0.125.
           Allowed range is from 0 to 1.

       ratio
           Set a ratio by which the signal is reduced.  Default is 2. Allowed range is from 1 to
           9000.

       attack
           Amount of milliseconds the signal has to rise above the threshold before gain
           reduction stops.  Default is 20 milliseconds. Allowed range is from 0.01 to 9000.

       release
           Amount of milliseconds the signal has to fall below the threshold before the reduction
           is increased again. Default is 250 milliseconds.  Allowed range is from 0.01 to 9000.

       makeup
           Set amount of amplification of signal after processing.  Default is 1. Allowed range
           is from 1 to 64.

       knee
           Curve the sharp knee around the threshold to enter gain reduction more softly.
           Default is 2.828427125. Allowed range is from 1 to 8.

       detection
           Choose if exact signal should be taken for detection or an RMS like one.  Default is
           "rms". Can be "peak" or "rms".

       link
           Choose if the average level between all channels or the louder channel affects the
           reduction.  Default is "average". Can be "average" or "maximum".

   alimiter
       The limiter prevents an input signal from rising over a desired threshold.  This limiter
       uses lookahead technology to prevent your signal from distorting.  It means that there is
       a small delay after the signal is processed. Keep in mind that the delay it produces is
       the attack time you set.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       level_in
           Set input gain. Default is 1.

       level_out
           Set output gain. Default is 1.

       limit
           Don't let signals above this level pass the limiter. Default is 1.

       attack
           The limiter will reach its attenuation level in this amount of time in milliseconds.
           Default is 5 milliseconds.

       release
           Come back from limiting to attenuation 1.0 in this amount of milliseconds.  Default is
           50 milliseconds.

       asc When gain reduction is always needed ASC takes care of releasing to an average
           reduction level rather than reaching a reduction of 0 in the release time.

       asc_level
           Select how much the release time is affected by ASC, 0 means nearly no changes in
           release time while 1 produces higher release times.

       level
           Auto level output signal. Default is enabled.  This normalizes audio back to 0dB if
           enabled.

       Depending on picked setting it is recommended to upsample input 2x or 4x times with
       aresample before applying this filter.

   allpass
       Apply a two-pole all-pass filter with central frequency (in Hz) frequency, and filter-
       width width.  An all-pass filter changes the audio's frequency to phase relationship
       without changing its frequency to amplitude relationship.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       frequency, f
           Set frequency in Hz.

       width_type, t
           Set method to specify band-width of filter.

           h   Hz

           q   Q-Factor

           o   octave

           s   slope

       width, w
           Specify the band-width of a filter in width_type units.

       channels, c
           Specify which channels to filter, by default all available are filtered.

   aloop
       Loop audio samples.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       loop
           Set the number of loops.

       size
           Set maximal number of samples.

       start
           Set first sample of loop.

   amerge
       Merge two or more audio streams into a single multi-channel stream.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       inputs
           Set the number of inputs. Default is 2.

       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.

       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).

       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.

       All inputs must have the same sample rate, and format.

       If inputs do not have the same duration, the output will stop with the shortest.

       Examples

       •   Merge two mono files into a stereo stream:

                   amovie=left.wav [l] ; amovie=right.mp3 [r] ; [l] [r] amerge

       •   Multiple merges assuming 1 video stream and 6 audio streams in input.mkv:

                   ffmpeg -i input.mkv -filter_complex "[0:1][0:2][0:3][0:4][0:5][0:6] amerge=inputs=6" -c:a pcm_s16le output.mkv

   amix
       Mixes multiple audio inputs into a single output.

       Note that this filter only supports float samples (the amerge and pan audio filters
       support many formats). If the amix input has integer samples then aresample will be
       automatically inserted to perform the conversion to float samples.

       For example

               ffmpeg -i INPUT1 -i INPUT2 -i INPUT3 -filter_complex amix=inputs=3:duration=first:dropout_transition=3 OUTPUT

       will mix 3 input audio streams to a single output with the same duration as the first
       input and a dropout transition time of 3 seconds.

       It accepts the following parameters:

       inputs
           The number of inputs. If unspecified, it defaults to 2.

       duration
           How to determine the end-of-stream.

           longest
               The duration of the longest input. (default)

           shortest
               The duration of the shortest input.

           first
               The duration of the first input.

       dropout_transition
           The transition time, in seconds, for volume renormalization when an input stream ends.
           The default value is 2 seconds.

   anequalizer
       High-order parametric multiband equalizer for each channel.

       It accepts the following parameters:

       params
           This option string is in format: "cchn f=cf w=w g=g t=f | ..."  Each equalizer band is
           separated by '|'.

           chn Set channel number to which equalization will be applied.  If input doesn't have
               that channel the entry is ignored.

           f   Set central frequency for band.  If input doesn't have that frequency the entry is
               ignored.

           w   Set band width in hertz.

           g   Set band gain in dB.

           t   Set filter type for band, optional, can be:

               0   Butterworth, this is default.

               1   Chebyshev type 1.

               2   Chebyshev type 2.

       curves
           With this option activated frequency response of anequalizer is displayed in video
           stream.

       size
           Set video stream size. Only useful if curves option is activated.

       mgain
           Set max gain that will be displayed. Only useful if curves option is activated.
           Setting this to a reasonable value makes it possible to display gain which is derived
           from neighbour bands which are too close to each other and thus produce higher gain
           when both are activated.

       fscale
           Set frequency scale used to draw frequency response in video output.  Can be linear or
           logarithmic. Default is logarithmic.

       colors
           Set color for each channel curve which is going to be displayed in video stream.  This
           is list of color names separated by space or by '|'.  Unrecognised or missing colors
           will be replaced by white color.

       Examples

       •   Lower gain by 10 of central frequency 200Hz and width 100 Hz for first 2 channels
           using Chebyshev type 1 filter:

                   anequalizer=c0 f=200 w=100 g=-10 t=1|c1 f=200 w=100 g=-10 t=1

       Commands

       This filter supports the following commands:

       change
           Alter existing filter parameters.  Syntax for the commands is :
           "fN|f=freq|w=width|g=gain"

           fN is existing filter number, starting from 0, if no such filter is available error is

   anull
       Pass the audio source unchanged to the output.

   apad
       Pad the end of an audio stream with silence.

       This can be used together with ffmpeg -shortest to extend audio streams to the same length
       as the video stream.

       A description of the accepted options follows.

       packet_size
           Set silence packet size. Default value is 4096.

       pad_len
           Set the number of samples of silence to add to the end. After the value is reached,
           the stream is terminated. This option is mutually exclusive with whole_len.

       whole_len
           Set the minimum total number of samples in the output audio stream. If the value is
           longer than the input audio length, silence is added to the end, until the value is
           reached. This option is mutually exclusive with pad_len.

       If neither the pad_len nor the whole_len option is set, the filter will add silence to the
       end of the input stream indefinitely.

       Examples

       •   Add 1024 samples of silence to the end of the input:

                   apad=pad_len=1024

       •   Make sure the audio output will contain at least 10000 samples, pad the input with
           silence if required:

                   apad=whole_len=10000

       •   Use ffmpeg to pad the audio input with silence, so that the video stream will always
           result the shortest and will be converted until the end in the output file when using
           the shortest option:

                   ffmpeg -i VIDEO -i AUDIO -filter_complex "[1:0]apad" -shortest OUTPUT

   aphaser
       Add a phasing effect to the input audio.

       A phaser filter creates series of peaks and troughs in the frequency spectrum.  The
       position of the peaks and troughs are modulated so that they vary over time, creating a
       sweeping effect.

       A description of the accepted parameters follows.

       in_gain
           Set input gain. Default is 0.4.

       out_gain
           Set output gain. Default is 0.74

       delay
           Set delay in milliseconds. Default is 3.0.

       decay
           Set decay. Default is 0.4.

       speed
           Set modulation speed in Hz. Default is 0.5.

       type
           Set modulation type. Default is triangular.

           It accepts the following values:

           triangular, t
           sinusoidal, s

   apulsator
       Audio pulsator is something between an autopanner and a tremolo.  But it can produce funny
       stereo effects as well. Pulsator changes the volume of the left and right channel based on
       a LFO (low frequency oscillator) with different waveforms and shifted phases.  This filter
       have the ability to define an offset between left and right channel. An offset of 0 means
       that both LFO shapes match each other.  The left and right channel are altered equally - a
       conventional tremolo.  An offset of 50% means that the shape of the right channel is
       exactly shifted in phase (or moved backwards about half of the frequency) - pulsator acts
       as an autopanner. At 1 both curves match again. Every setting in between moves the phase
       shift gapless between all stages and produces some "bypassing" sounds with sine and
       triangle waveforms. The more you set the offset near 1 (starting from the 0.5) the faster
       the signal passes from the left to the right speaker.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       level_in
           Set input gain. By default it is 1. Range is [0.015625 - 64].

       level_out
           Set output gain. By default it is 1. Range is [0.015625 - 64].

       mode
           Set waveform shape the LFO will use. Can be one of: sine, triangle, square, sawup or
           sawdown. Default is sine.

       amount
           Set modulation. Define how much of original signal is affected by the LFO.

       offset_l
           Set left channel offset. Default is 0. Allowed range is [0 - 1].

       offset_r
           Set right channel offset. Default is 0.5. Allowed range is [0 - 1].

       width
           Set pulse width. Default is 1. Allowed range is [0 - 2].

       timing
           Set possible timing mode. Can be one of: bpm, ms or hz. Default is hz.

       bpm Set bpm. Default is 120. Allowed range is [30 - 300]. Only used if timing is set to
           bpm.

       ms  Set ms. Default is 500. Allowed range is [10 - 2000]. Only used if timing is set to
           ms.

       hz  Set frequency in Hz. Default is 2. Allowed range is [0.01 - 100]. Only used if timing
           is set to hz.

   aresample
       Resample the input audio to the specified parameters, using the libswresample library. If
       none are specified then the filter will automatically convert between its input and
       output.

       This filter is also able to stretch/squeeze the audio data to make it match the timestamps
       or to inject silence / cut out audio to make it match the timestamps, do a combination of
       both or do neither.

       The filter accepts the syntax [sample_rate:]resampler_options, where sample_rate expresses
       a sample rate and resampler_options is a list of key=value pairs, separated by ":". See
       the the "Resampler Options" section in the ffmpeg-resampler(1) manual for the complete
       list of supported options.

       Examples

       •   Resample the input audio to 44100Hz:

                   aresample=44100

       •   Stretch/squeeze samples to the given timestamps, with a maximum of 1000 samples per
           second compensation:

                   aresample=async=1000

   areverse
       Reverse an audio clip.

       Warning: This filter requires memory to buffer the entire clip, so trimming is suggested.

       Examples

       •   Take the first 5 seconds of a clip, and reverse it.

                   atrim=end=5,areverse

   asetnsamples
       Set the number of samples per each output audio frame.

       The last output packet may contain a different number of samples, as the filter will flush
       all the remaining samples when the input audio signals its end.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       nb_out_samples, n
           Set the number of frames per each output audio frame. The number is intended as the
           number of samples per each channel.  Default value is 1024.

       pad, p
           If set to 1, the filter will pad the last audio frame with zeroes, so that the last
           frame will contain the same number of samples as the previous ones. Default value is
           1.

       For example, to set the number of per-frame samples to 1234 and disable padding for the
       last frame, use:

               asetnsamples=n=1234:p=0

   asetrate
       Set the sample rate without altering the PCM data.  This will result in a change of speed
       and pitch.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       sample_rate, r
           Set the output sample rate. Default is 44100 Hz.

   ashowinfo
       Show a line containing various information for each input audio frame.  The input audio is
       not modified.

       The shown line contains a sequence of key/value pairs of the form key:value.

       The following values are shown in the output:

       n   The (sequential) number of the input frame, starting from 0.

       pts The presentation timestamp of the input frame, in time base units; the time base
           depends on the filter input pad, and is usually 1/sample_rate.

       pts_time
           The presentation timestamp of the input frame in seconds.

       pos position of the frame in the input stream, -1 if this information in unavailable
           and/or meaningless (for example in case of synthetic audio)

       fmt The sample format.

       chlayout
           The channel layout.

       rate
           The sample rate for the audio frame.

       nb_samples
           The number of samples (per channel) in the frame.

       checksum
           The Adler-32 checksum (printed in hexadecimal) of the audio data. For planar audio,
           the data is treated as if all the planes were concatenated.

       plane_checksums
           A list of Adler-32 checksums for each data plane.

   astats
       Display time domain statistical information about the audio channels.  Statistics are
       calculated and displayed for each audio channel and, where applicable, an overall figure
       is also given.

       It accepts the following option:

       length
           Short window length in seconds, used for peak and trough RMS measurement.  Default is
           0.05 (50 milliseconds). Allowed range is "[0.1 - 10]".

       metadata
           Set metadata injection. All the metadata keys are prefixed with "lavfi.astats.X",
           where "X" is channel number starting from 1 or string "Overall". Default is disabled.

           Available keys for each channel are: DC_offset Min_level Max_level Min_difference
           Max_difference Mean_difference RMS_difference Peak_level RMS_peak RMS_trough
           Crest_factor Flat_factor Peak_count Bit_depth Dynamic_range

           and for Overall: DC_offset Min_level Max_level Min_difference Max_difference
           Mean_difference RMS_difference Peak_level RMS_level RMS_peak RMS_trough Flat_factor
           Peak_count Bit_depth Number_of_samples

           For example full key look like this "lavfi.astats.1.DC_offset" or this
           "lavfi.astats.Overall.Peak_count".

           For description what each key means read below.

       reset
           Set number of frame after which stats are going to be recalculated.  Default is
           disabled.

       A description of each shown parameter follows:

       DC offset

       Max difference
           Maximal difference between two consecutive samples.

       Mean difference
           Mean difference between two consecutive samples.  The average of each difference
           between two consecutive samples.

       RMS difference
           Root Mean Square difference between two consecutive samples.

       Peak level dB
       RMS level dB
           Standard peak and RMS level measured in dBFS.

       RMS peak dB
       RMS trough dB
           Peak and trough values for RMS level measured over a short window.

       Crest factor
           Standard ratio of peak to RMS level (note: not in dB).

       Flat factor
           Flatness (i.e. consecutive samples with the same value) of the signal at its peak
           levels (i.e. either Min level or Max level).

       Peak count
           Number of occasions (not the number of samples) that the signal attained either Min
           level or Max level.

       Bit depth
           Overall bit depth of audio. Number of bits used for each sample.

       Dynamic range
           Measured dynamic range of audio in dB.

   atempo
       Adjust audio tempo.

       The filter accepts exactly one parameter, the audio tempo. If not specified then the
       filter will assume nominal 1.0 tempo. Tempo must be in the [0.5, 2.0] range.

       Examples

       •   Slow down audio to 80% tempo:

                   atempo=0.8

       •   To speed up audio to 125% tempo:

                   atempo=1.25

   atrim
       Trim the input so that the output contains one continuous subpart of the input.

       It accepts the following parameters:

       start
           Timestamp (in seconds) of the start of the section to keep. I.e. the audio sample with
           the timestamp start will be the first sample in the output.

       end Specify time of the first audio sample that will be dropped, i.e. the audio sample
           immediately preceding the one with the timestamp end will be the last sample in the
           output.

       start_pts
           Same as start, except this option sets the start timestamp in samples instead of
           seconds.

       end_pts
           Same as end, except this option sets the end timestamp in samples instead of seconds.

       duration
           The maximum duration of the output in seconds.

       start_sample
           The number of the first sample that should be output.

       end_sample
           The number of the first sample that should be dropped.

       start, end, and duration are expressed as time duration specifications; see the Time
       duration section in the ffmpeg-utils(1) manual.

       Note that the first two sets of the start/end options and the duration option look at the
       frame timestamp, while the _sample options simply count the samples that pass through the
       filter. So start/end_pts and start/end_sample will give different results when the
       timestamps are wrong, inexact or do not start at zero. Also note that this filter does not
       modify the timestamps. If you wish to have the output timestamps start at zero, insert the
       asetpts filter after the atrim filter.

       If multiple start or end options are set, this filter tries to be greedy and keep all
       samples that match at least one of the specified constraints. To keep only the part that
       matches all the constraints at once, chain multiple atrim filters.

       The defaults are such that all the input is kept. So it is possible to set e.g.  just the
       end values to keep everything before the specified time.

       Examples:

       •   Drop everything except the second minute of input:

                   ffmpeg -i INPUT -af atrim=60:120

       •   Keep only the first 1000 samples:

                   ffmpeg -i INPUT -af atrim=end_sample=1000

   bandpass
       Apply a two-pole Butterworth band-pass filter with central frequency frequency, and
       (3dB-point) band-width width.  The csg option selects a constant skirt gain (peak gain =
       Q) instead of the default: constant 0dB peak gain.  The filter roll off at 6dB per octave
       (20dB per decade).

       The filter accepts the following options:

       frequency, f
           Set the filter's central frequency. Default is 3000.

       csg Constant skirt gain if set to 1. Defaults to 0.

       width_type, t
           Set method to specify band-width of filter.

   bandreject
       Apply a two-pole Butterworth band-reject filter with central frequency frequency, and
       (3dB-point) band-width width.  The filter roll off at 6dB per octave (20dB per decade).

       The filter accepts the following options:

       frequency, f
           Set the filter's central frequency. Default is 3000.

       width_type, t
           Set method to specify band-width of filter.

           Specify the band-width of a filter in width_type units.

       channels, c
           Specify which channels to filter, by default all available are filtered.

   bass
       Boost or cut the bass (lower) frequencies of the audio using a two-pole shelving filter
       with a response similar to that of a standard hi-fi's tone-controls. This is also known as
       shelving equalisation (EQ).

       The filter accepts the following options:

       gain, g
           Give the gain at 0 Hz. Its useful range is about -20 (for a large cut) to +20 (for a
           large boost).  Beware of clipping when using a positive gain.

       frequency, f
           Set the filter's central frequency and so can be used to extend or reduce the
           frequency range to be boosted or cut.  The default value is 100 Hz.

       width_type, t
           Set method to specify band-width of filter.

           h   Hz

           q   Q-Factor

           o   octave

           s   slope

       width, w

       which channels to filter, by default all available are filtered.

   bs2b
       Bauer stereo to binaural transformation, which improves headphone listening of stereo
       audio records.

       To enable compilation of this filter you need to configure FFmpeg with "--enable-libbs2b".

       It accepts the following parameters:

       profile
           Pre-defined crossfeed level.

           default
               Default level (fcut=700, feed=50).

           cmoy
               Chu Moy circuit (fcut=700, feed=60).

           jmeier
               Jan Meier circuit (fcut=650, feed=95).

       fcut
           Cut frequency (in Hz).

       feed
           Feed level (in Hz).

   channelmap
       Remap input channels to new locations.

       It accepts the following parameters:

       map Map channels from input to output. The argument is a '|'-separated list of mappings,
           each in the "in_channel-out_channel" or in_channel form. in_channel can be either the
           name of the input channel (e.g. FL for front left) or its index in the input channel
           layout.  out_channel is the name of the output channel or its index in the output
           channel layout. If out_channel is not given then it is implicitly an index, starting
           with zero and increasing by one for each mapping.

       channel_layout
           The channel layout of the output stream.

       If no mapping is present, the filter will implicitly map input channels to output
       channels, preserving indices.

       For example, assuming a 5.1+downmix input MOV file,

               ffmpeg -i in.mov -filter 'channelmap=map=DL-FL|DR-FR' out.wav

       will create an output WAV file tagged as stereo from the downmix channels of the input.

       To fix a 5.1 WAV improperly encoded in AAC's native channel order

               ffmpeg -i in.wav -filter 'channelmap=1|2|0|5|3|4:5.1' out.wav

   channelsplit
       Split each channel from an input audio stream into a separate output stream.

       It accepts the following parameters:

       channel_layout
           The channel layout of the input stream. The default is "stereo".

       For example, assuming a stereo input MP3 file,

               ffmpeg -i in.mp3 -filter_complex channelsplit out.mkv

       will create an output Matroska file with two audio streams, one containing only the left
       channel and the other the right channel.

       Split a 5.1 WAV file into per-channel files:

               ffmpeg -i in.wav -filter_complex
               'channelsplit=channel_layout=5.1[FL][FR][FC][LFE][SL][SR]'
               -map '[FL]' front_left.wav -map '[FR]' front_right.wav -map '[FC]'
               front_center.wav -map '[LFE]' lfe.wav -map '[SL]' side_left.wav -map '[SR]'
               side_right.wav

   chorus
       Add a chorus effect to the audio.

       Can make a single vocal sound like a chorus, but can also be applied to instrumentation.

       Chorus resembles an echo effect with a short delay, but whereas with echo the delay is
       constant, with chorus, it is varied using using sinusoidal or triangular modulation.  The
       modulation depth defines the range the modulated delay is played before or after the
       delay. Hence the delayed sound will sound slower or faster, that is the delayed sound
       tuned around the original one, like in a chorus where some vocals are slightly off key.

       It accepts the following parameters:

       in_gain
           Set input gain. Default is 0.4.

       out_gain
           Set output gain. Default is 0.4.

       delays
           Set delays. A typical delay is around 40ms to 60ms.

       decays
           Set decays.

       speeds
           Set speeds.

       depths
           Set depths.

       Examples

       •   A single delay:

                   chorus=0.7:0.9:55:0.4:0.25:2

       •   Two delays:

   compand
       Compress or expand the audio's dynamic range.

       It accepts the following parameters:

       attacks
       decays
           A list of times in seconds for each channel over which the instantaneous level of the
           input signal is averaged to determine its volume. attacks refers to increase of volume
           and decays refers to decrease of volume. For most situations, the attack time
           (response to the audio getting louder) should be shorter than the decay time, because
           the human ear is more sensitive to sudden loud audio than sudden soft audio. A typical
           value for attack is 0.3 seconds and a typical value for decay is 0.8 seconds.  If
           specified number of attacks & decays is lower than number of channels, the last set
           attack/decay will be used for all remaining channels.

       points
           A list of points for the transfer function, specified in dB relative to the maximum
           possible signal amplitude. Each key points list must be defined using the following
           syntax: "x0/y0|x1/y1|x2/y2|...." or "x0/y0 x1/y1 x2/y2 ...."

           The input values must be in strictly increasing order but the transfer function does
           not have to be monotonically rising. The point "0/0" is assumed but may be overridden
           (by "0/out-dBn"). Typical values for the transfer function are "-70/-70|-60/-20|1/0".

       soft-knee
           Set the curve radius in dB for all joints. It defaults to 0.01.

       gain
           Set the additional gain in dB to be applied at all points on the transfer function.
           This allows for easy adjustment of the overall gain.  It defaults to 0.

       volume
           Set an initial volume, in dB, to be assumed for each channel when filtering starts.
           This permits the user to supply a nominal level initially, so that, for example, a
           very large gain is not applied to initial signal levels before the companding has
           begun to operate. A typical value for audio which is initially quiet is -90 dB. It
           defaults to 0.

       delay
           Set a delay, in seconds. The input audio is analyzed immediately, but audio is delayed
           before being fed to the volume adjuster. Specifying a delay approximately equal to the
           attack/decay times allows the filter to effectively operate in predictive rather than
           reactive mode. It defaults to 0.

       Examples

           environment:

       •   Here is another noise gate, this time for when the noise is at a higher level than the
           signal (making it, in some ways, similar to squelch):

   compensationdelay
       Compensation Delay Line is a metric based delay to compensate differing positions of
       microphones or speakers.

       For example, you have recorded guitar with two microphones placed in different location.
       Because the front of sound wave has fixed speed in normal conditions, the phasing of
       microphones can vary and depends on their location and interposition. The best sound mix
       can be achieved when these microphones are in phase (synchronized). Note that distance of
       ~30 cm between microphones makes one microphone to capture signal in antiphase to another
       microphone. That makes the final mix sounding moody.  This filter helps to solve phasing
       problems by adding different delays to each microphone track and make them synchronized.

       The best result can be reached when you take one track as base and synchronize other
       tracks one by one with it.  Remember that synchronization/delay tolerance depends on
       sample rate, too.  Higher sample rates will give more tolerance.

       It accepts the following parameters:

       mm  Set millimeters distance. This is compensation distance for fine tuning.  Default is
           0.

       cm  Set cm distance. This is compensation distance for tightening distance setup.  Default
           is 0.

       m   Set meters distance. This is compensation distance for hard distance setup.  Default
           is 0.

       dry Set dry amount. Amount of unprocessed (dry) signal.  Default is 0.

       wet Set wet amount. Amount of processed (wet) signal.  Default is 1.

       temp
           Set temperature degree in Celsius. This is the temperature of the environment.
           Default is 20.

   crossfeed
       Apply headphone crossfeed filter.

       Crossfeed is the process of blending the left and right channels of stereo audio
       recording.  It is mainly used to reduce extreme stereo separation of low frequencies.

       The intent is to produce more speaker like sound to the listener.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       strength
           Set strength of crossfeed. Default is 0.2. Allowed range is from 0 to 1.  This sets
           gain of low shelf filter for side part of stereo image.  Default is -6dB. Max allowed
           is -30db when strength is set to 1.

       range
           Set soundstage wideness. Default is 0.5. Allowed range is from 0 to 1.  This sets cut
           off frequency of low shelf filter. Default is cut off near 1550 Hz. With range set to
           1 cut off frequency is set to 2100 Hz.

       level_in
           Set input gain. Default is 0.9.

       level_out
           Set output gain. Default is 1.

   crystalizer
       Simple algorithm to expand audio dynamic range.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       i   Sets the intensity of effect (default: 2.0). Must be in range between 0.0 (unchanged
           sound) to 10.0 (maximum effect).

       c   Enable clipping. By default is enabled.

   dcshift
       Apply a DC shift to the audio.

       This can be useful to remove a DC offset (caused perhaps by a hardware problem in the
       recording chain) from the audio. The effect of a DC offset is reduced headroom and hence
       volume. The astats filter can be used to determine if a signal has a DC offset.

       shift
           Set the DC shift, allowed range is [-1, 1]. It indicates the amount to shift the
           audio.

       limitergain
           Optional. It should have a value much less than 1 (e.g. 0.05 or 0.02) and is used to
           prevent clipping.

   dynaudnorm
       Dynamic Audio Normalizer.

       This filter applies a certain amount of gain to the input audio in order to bring its peak
       magnitude to a target level (e.g. 0 dBFS). However, in contrast to more "simple"
       normalization algorithms, the Dynamic Audio Normalizer *dynamically* re-adjusts the gain
       factor to the input audio.  This allows for applying extra gain to the "quiet" sections of
       the audio while avoiding distortions or clipping the "loud" sections. In other words: The
       Dynamic Audio Normalizer will "even out" the volume of quiet and loud sections, in the
       sense that the volume of each section is brought to the same target level. Note, however,
       that the Dynamic Audio Normalizer achieves this goal *without* applying "dynamic range
       compressing". It will retain 100% of the dynamic range *within* each section of the audio
       file.

       f   Set the frame length in milliseconds. In range from 10 to 8000 milliseconds.  Default
           is 500 milliseconds.  The Dynamic Audio Normalizer processes the input audio in small
           chunks, referred to as frames. This is required, because a peak magnitude has no
           meaning for just a single sample value. Instead, we need to determine the peak
           magnitude for a contiguous sequence of sample values. While a "standard" normalizer
           would simply use the peak magnitude of the complete file, the Dynamic Audio Normalizer
           determines the peak magnitude individually for each frame. The length of a frame is
           specified in milliseconds. By default, the Dynamic Audio Normalizer uses a frame
           length of 500 milliseconds, which has been found to give good results with most files.
           Note that the exact frame length, in number of samples, will be determined
           automatically, based on the sampling rate of the individual input audio file.

       g   Set the Gaussian filter window size. In range from 3 to 301, must be odd number.
           Default is 31.  Probably the most important parameter of the Dynamic Audio Normalizer
           is the "window size" of the Gaussian smoothing filter. The filter's window size is
           specified in frames, centered around the current frame. For the sake of simplicity,
           this must be an odd number. Consequently, the default value of 31 takes into account
           the current frame, as well as the 15 preceding frames and the 15 subsequent frames.
           Using a larger window results in a stronger smoothing effect and thus in less gain
           variation, i.e. slower gain adaptation. Conversely, using a smaller window results in
           a weaker smoothing effect and thus in more gain variation, i.e. faster gain
           adaptation.  In other words, the more you increase this value, the more the Dynamic
           Audio Normalizer will behave like a "traditional" normalization filter. On the
           contrary, the more you decrease this value, the more the Dynamic Audio Normalizer will
           behave like a dynamic range compressor.

       p   Set the target peak value. This specifies the highest permissible magnitude level for
           the normalized audio input. This filter will try to approach the target peak magnitude
           as closely as possible, but at the same time it also makes sure that the normalized
           signal will never exceed the peak magnitude.  A frame's maximum local gain factor is
           imposed directly by the target peak magnitude. The default value is 0.95 and thus
           leaves a headroom of 5%*.  It is not recommended to go above this value.

       m   Set the maximum gain factor. In range from 1.0 to 100.0. Default is 10.0.  The Dynamic
           Audio Normalizer determines the maximum possible (local) gain factor for each input
           frame, i.e. the maximum gain factor that does not result in clipping or distortion.
           The maximum gain factor is determined by the frame's highest magnitude sample.
           However, the Dynamic Audio Normalizer additionally bounds the frame's maximum gain
           factor by a predetermined (global) maximum gain factor. This is done in order to avoid
           excessive gain factors in "silent" or almost silent frames. By default, the maximum
           gain factor is 10.0, For most inputs the default value should be sufficient and it
           usually is not recommended to increase this value. Though, for input with an extremely
           low overall volume level, it may be necessary to allow even higher gain factors. Note,
           however, that the Dynamic Audio Normalizer does not simply apply a "hard" threshold
           (i.e. cut off values above the threshold).  Instead, a "sigmoid" threshold function
           will be applied. This way, the gain factors will smoothly approach the threshold
           value, but never exceed that value.

       r   Set the target RMS. In range from 0.0 to 1.0. Default is 0.0 - disabled.  By default,
           the Dynamic Audio Normalizer performs "peak" normalization.  This means that the
           maximum local gain factor for each frame is defined (only) by the frame's highest
           magnitude sample. This way, the samples can be amplified as much as possible without
           exceeding the maximum signal level, i.e. without clipping. Optionally, however, the
           Dynamic Audio Normalizer can also take into account the frame's root mean square,
           abbreviated RMS. In electrical engineering, the RMS is commonly used to determine the
           power of a time-varying signal. It is therefore considered that the RMS is a better
           approximation of the "perceived loudness" than just looking at the signal's peak
           magnitude. Consequently, by adjusting all frames to a constant RMS value, a uniform
           "perceived loudness" can be established. If a target RMS value has been specified, a
           frame's local gain factor is defined as the factor that would result in exactly that
           RMS value.  Note, however, that the maximum local gain factor is still restricted by
           the frame's highest magnitude sample, in order to prevent clipping.

       n   Enable channels coupling. By default is enabled.  By default, the Dynamic Audio
           Normalizer will amplify all channels by the same amount. This means the same gain
           factor will be applied to all channels, i.e.  the maximum possible gain factor is
           determined by the "loudest" channel.  However, in some recordings, it may happen that
           the volume of the different channels is uneven, e.g. one channel may be "quieter" than
           the other one(s).  In this case, this option can be used to disable the channel
           coupling. This way, the gain factor will be determined independently for each channel,
           depending only on the individual channel's highest magnitude sample. This allows for
           harmonizing the volume of the different channels.

       c   Enable DC bias correction. By default is disabled.  An audio signal (in the time
           domain) is a sequence of sample values.  In the Dynamic Audio Normalizer these sample
           values are represented in the -1.0 to 1.0 range, regardless of the original input
           format. Normally, the audio signal, or "waveform", should be centered around the zero
           point.  That means if we calculate the mean value of all samples in a file, or in a
           single frame, then the result should be 0.0 or at least very close to that value. If,
           however, there is a significant deviation of the mean value from 0.0, in either
           positive or negative direction, this is referred to as a DC bias or DC offset. Since a
           DC bias is clearly undesirable, the Dynamic Audio Normalizer provides optional DC bias
           correction.  With DC bias correction enabled, the Dynamic Audio Normalizer will
           determine the mean value, or "DC correction" offset, of each input frame and subtract
           that value from all of the frame's sample values which ensures those samples are
           centered around 0.0 again. Also, in order to avoid "gaps" at the frame boundaries, the
           DC correction offset values will be interpolated smoothly between neighbouring frames.

       b   Enable alternative boundary mode. By default is disabled.  The Dynamic Audio
           Normalizer takes into account a certain neighbourhood around each frame. This includes
           the preceding frames as well as the subsequent frames. However, for the "boundary"
           frames, located at the very beginning and at the very end of the audio file, not all
           neighbouring frames are available. In particular, for the first few frames in the
           audio file, the preceding frames are not known. And, similarly, for the last few
           frames in the audio file, the subsequent frames are not known. Thus, the question
           arises which gain factors should be assumed for the missing frames in the "boundary"
           region. The Dynamic Audio Normalizer implements two modes to deal with this situation.
           The default boundary mode assumes a gain factor of exactly 1.0 for the missing frames,
           resulting in a smooth "fade in" and "fade out" at the beginning and at the end of the
           input, respectively.

       s   Set the compress factor. In range from 0.0 to 30.0. Default is 0.0.  By default, the
           Dynamic Audio Normalizer does not apply "traditional" compression. This means that
           signal peaks will not be pruned and thus the full dynamic range will be retained
           within each local neighbourhood. However, in some cases it may be desirable to combine
           the Dynamic Audio Normalizer's normalization algorithm with a more "traditional"
           compression.  For this purpose, the Dynamic Audio Normalizer provides an optional
           compression (thresholding) function. If (and only if) the compression feature is
           enabled, all input frames will be processed by a soft knee thresholding function prior
           to the actual normalization process. Put simply, the thresholding function is going to
           prune all samples whose magnitude exceeds a certain threshold value.  However, the
           Dynamic Audio Normalizer does not simply apply a fixed threshold value. Instead, the
           threshold value will be adjusted for each individual frame.  In general, smaller
           parameters result in stronger compression, and vice versa.  Values below 3.0 are not
           recommended, because audible distortion may appear.

   earwax
       Make audio easier to listen to on headphones.

       This filter adds `cues' to 44.1kHz stereo (i.e. audio CD format) audio so that when
       listened to on headphones the stereo image is moved from inside your head (standard for
       headphones) to outside and in front of the listener (standard for speakers).

       Ported from SoX.

   equalizer
       Apply a two-pole peaking equalisation (EQ) filter. With this filter, the signal-level at
       and around a selected frequency can be increased or decreased, whilst (unlike bandpass and
       bandreject filters) that at all other frequencies is unchanged.

                   equalizer=f=1000:t=h:width=200:g=-10

       •   Apply 2 dB gain at 1000 Hz with Q 1 and attenuate 5 dB at 100 Hz with Q 2:

                   equalizer=f=1000:t=q:w=1:g=2,equalizer=f=100:t=q:w=2:g=-5

   extrastereo
       Linearly increases the difference between left and right channels which adds some sort of
       "live" effect to playback.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       m   Sets the difference coefficient (default: 2.5). 0.0 means mono sound (average of both
           channels), with 1.0 sound will be unchanged, with -1.0 left and right channels will be
           swapped.

       c   Enable clipping. By default is enabled.

   firequalizer
       Apply FIR Equalization using arbitrary frequency response.

       The filter accepts the following option:

           chid
               channel id, see libavutil/channel_layout.h, set to the first channel id when
               multichannels evaluation is disabled

           chs number of channels

           chlayout
               channel_layout, see libavutil/channel_layout.h

           and functions:

           gain_interpolate(f)
               interpolate gain on frequency f based on gain_entry

           cubic_interpolate(f)
               same as gain_interpolate, but smoother

           This option is also available as command. Default is gain_interpolate(f).

   hdcd
       Decodes High Definition Compatible Digital (HDCD) data. A 16-bit PCM stream with embedded
       HDCD codes is expanded into a 20-bit PCM stream.

       The filter supports the Peak Extend and Low-level Gain Adjustment features of HDCD, and
       detects the Transient Filter flag.

               ffmpeg -i HDCD16.flac -af hdcd OUT24.flac

       When using the filter with wav, note the default encoding for wav is 16-bit, so the
       resulting 20-bit stream will be truncated back to 16-bit. Use something like -acodec
       pcm_s24le after the filter to get 24-bit PCM output.

               ffmpeg -i HDCD16.wav -af hdcd OUT16.wav
               ffmpeg -i HDCD16.wav -af hdcd -c:a pcm_s24le OUT24.wav

       The filter accepts the following options:

       disable_autoconvert
           Disable any automatic format conversion or resampling in the filter graph.

       force_pe
           Always extend peaks above -3dBFS even if PE isn't signaled.

       analyze_mode
           Replace audio with a solid tone and adjust the amplitude to signal some specific
           aspect of the decoding process. The output file can be loaded in an audio editor
           alongside the original to aid analysis.

           "analyze_mode=pe:force_pe=true" can be used to see all samples above the PE level.

           Modes are:

           0, off
               Disabled

   headphone
       Apply head-related transfer functions (HRTFs) to create virtual loudspeakers around the
       user for binaural listening via headphones.  The HRIRs are provided via additional
       streams, for each channel one stereo input stream is needed.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       map Set mapping of input streams for convolution.  The argument is a '|'-separated list of
           channel names in order as they are given as additional stream inputs for filter.  This
           also specify number of input streams. Number of input streams must be not less than
           number of channels in first stream plus one.

       Examples

       •   Full example using wav files as coefficients with amovie filters for 7.1 downmix, each
           amovie filter use stereo file with IR coefficients as input.  The files give
           coefficients for each position of virtual loudspeaker:

                   ffmpeg -i input.wav -lavfi-complex "amovie=azi_270_ele_0_DFC.wav[sr],amovie=azi_90_ele_0_DFC.wav[sl],amovie=azi_225_ele_0_DFC.wav[br],amovie=azi_135_ele_0_DFC.wav[bl],amovie=azi_0_ele_0_DFC.wav,asplit[fc][lfe],amovie=azi_35_ele_0_DFC.wav[fl],amovie=azi_325_ele_0_DFC.wav[fr],[a:0][fl][fr][fc][lfe][bl][br][sl][sr]headphone=FL|FR|FC|LFE|BL|BR|SL|SR"
                   output.wav

   highpass
       Apply a high-pass filter with 3dB point frequency.  The filter can be either single-pole,
       or double-pole (the default).  The filter roll off at 6dB per pole per octave (20dB per
       pole per decade).

       The filter accepts the following options:

       frequency, f
           Set frequency in Hz. Default is 3000.

       poles, p
           Set number of poles. Default is 2.

           q   Q-Factor

           o   octave

           s   slope

       width, w
           Specify the band-width of a filter in width_type units.  Applies only to double-pole
           filter.  The default is 0.707q and gives a Butterworth response.

       channels, c
           Specify which channels to filter, by default all available are filtered.

   join
       Join multiple input streams into one multi-channel stream.

       It accepts the following parameters:

       inputs
           The number of input streams. It defaults to 2.

       channel_layout
           The desired output channel layout. It defaults to stereo.

       map Map channels from inputs to output. The argument is a '|'-separated list of mappings,
           each in the "input_idx.in_channel-out_channel" form. input_idx is the 0-based index of
           the input stream. in_channel can be either the name of the input channel (e.g. FL for
           front left) or its index in the specified input stream. out_channel is the name of the
           output channel.

       The filter will attempt to guess the mappings when they are not specified explicitly. It
       does so by first trying to find an unused matching input channel and if that fails it
       picks the first unused input channel.

       Join 3 inputs (with properly set channel layouts):

               ffmpeg -i INPUT1 -i INPUT2 -i INPUT3 -filter_complex join=inputs=3 OUTPUT

       Build a 5.1 output from 6 single-channel streams:

               ffmpeg -i fl -i fr -i fc -i sl -i sr -i lfe -filter_complex
               'join=inputs=6:channel_layout=5.1:map=0.0-FL|1.0-FR|2.0-FC|3.0-SL|4.0-SR|5.0-LFE'
               out

   ladspa
       Load a LADSPA (Linux Audio Developer's Simple Plugin API) plugin.

       To enable compilation of this filter you need to configure FFmpeg with "--enable-ladspa".

       file, f
           Specifies the name of LADSPA plugin library to load. If the environment variable
           LADSPA_PATH is defined, the LADSPA plugin is searched in each one of the directories
           specified by the colon separated list in LADSPA_PATH, otherwise in the standard LADSPA
           paths, which are in this order: HOME/.ladspa/lib/, /usr/local/lib/ladspa/,
           /usr/lib/ladspa/.

       plugin, p
           Specifies the plugin within the library. Some libraries contain only one plugin, but
           others contain many of them. If this is not set filter will list all available plugins
           within the specified library.

       controls, c
           Set the '|' separated list of controls which are zero or more floating point values
           that determine the behavior of the loaded plugin (for example delay, threshold or
           gain).  Controls need to be defined using the following syntax:
           c0=value0|c1=value1|c2=value2|..., where valuei is the value set on the i-th control.
           Alternatively they can be also defined using the following syntax:
           value0|value1|value2|..., where valuei is the value set on the i-th control.  If
           controls is set to "help", all available controls and their valid ranges are printed.

       sample_rate, s
           Specify the sample rate, default to 44100. Only used if plugin have zero inputs.

       nb_samples, n
           Set the number of samples per channel per each output frame, default is 1024. Only
           used if plugin have zero inputs.

       duration, d
           Set the minimum duration of the sourced audio. See the Time duration section in the
           ffmpeg-utils(1) manual for the accepted syntax.  Note that the resulting duration may
           be greater than the specified duration, as the generated audio is always cut at the
           end of a complete frame.  If not specified, or the expressed duration is negative, the
           audio is supposed to be generated forever.  Only used if plugin have zero inputs.

       Commands

       This filter supports the following commands:

       cN  Modify the N-th control value.

           If the specified value is not valid, it is ignored and prior one is kept.

   loudnorm
       EBU R128 loudness normalization. Includes both dynamic and linear normalization modes.
       Support for both single pass (livestreams, files) and double pass (files) modes.  This
       algorithm can target IL, LRA, and maximum true peak. To accurately detect true peaks, the
       audio stream will be upsampled to 192 kHz unless the normalization mode is linear.  Use
       the "-ar" option or "aresample" filter to explicitly set an output sample rate.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       I, i
           Set integrated loudness target.  Range is -70.0 - -5.0. Default value is -24.0.

       LRA, lra
           Set loudness range target.  Range is 1.0 - 20.0. Default value is 7.0.

       TP, tp
           Set maximum true peak.  Range is -9.0 - +0.0. Default value is -2.0.

       measured_I, measured_i
           Measured IL of input file.  Range is -99.0 - +0.0.

       measured_LRA, measured_lra
           Measured LRA of input file.  Range is  0.0 - 99.0.

       measured_TP, measured_tp
           Measured true peak of input file.  Range is  -99.0 - +99.0.

       measured_thresh
           Measured threshold of input file.  Range is -99.0 - +0.0.

       offset
           Set offset gain. Gain is applied before the true-peak limiter.  Range is  -99.0 -
           +99.0. Default is +0.0.

       linear
           Normalize linearly if possible.  measured_I, measured_LRA, measured_TP, and
           measured_thresh must also to be specified in order to use this mode.  Options are true
           or false. Default is true.

       dual_mono
           Treat mono input files as "dual-mono". If a mono file is intended for playback on a
           stereo system, its EBU R128 measurement will be perceptually incorrect.  If set to
           "true", this option will compensate for this effect.  Multi-channel input files are
           not affected by this option.  Options are true or false. Default is false.

       print_format
           Set print format for stats. Options are summary, json, or none.  Default value is
           none.

   lowpass
       Apply a low-pass filter with 3dB point frequency.  The filter can be either single-pole or
       double-pole (the default).  The filter roll off at 6dB per pole per octave (20dB per pole
       per decade).

       The filter accepts the following options:

       frequency, f
           Set frequency in Hz. Default is 500.

       poles, p
           Set number of poles. Default is 2.

           s   slope

       width, w
           Specify the band-width of a filter in width_type units.  Applies only to double-pole
           filter.  The default is 0.707q and gives a Butterworth response.

       channels, c
           Specify which channels to filter, by default all available are filtered.

       Examples

       •   Lowpass only LFE channel, it LFE is not present it does nothing:

                   lowpass=c=LFE

       Mix channels with specific gain levels. The filter accepts the output channel layout
       followed by a set of channels definitions.

       This filter is also designed to efficiently remap the channels of an audio stream.

       The filter accepts parameters of the form: "l|outdef|outdef|..."

       l   output channel layout or number of channels

       outdef
           output channel specification, of the form:
           "out_name=[gain*]in_name[(+-)[gain*]in_name...]"

       out_name
           output channel to define, either a channel name (FL, FR, etc.) or a channel number
           (c0, c1, etc.)

       gain
           multiplicative coefficient for the channel, 1 leaving the volume unchanged

       in_name
           input channel to use, see out_name for details; it is not possible to mix named and
           numbered input channels

       If the `=' in a channel specification is replaced by `<', then the gains for that
       specification will be renormalized so that the total is 1, thus avoiding clipping noise.

       Mixing examples

       For example, if you want to down-mix from stereo to mono, but with a bigger factor for the
       left channel:

               pan=1c|c0=0.9*c0+0.1*c1

       A customized down-mix to stereo that works automatically for 3-, 4-, 5- and 7-channels
       surround:

               pan=stereo| FL < FL + 0.5*FC + 0.6*BL + 0.6*SL | FR < FR + 0.5*FC + 0.6*BR + 0.6*SR

       Note that ffmpeg integrates a default down-mix (and up-mix) system that should be
       preferred (see "-ac" option) unless you have very specific needs.

       Remapping examples

       The channel remapping will be effective if, and only if:

       *<gain coefficients are zeroes or ones,>
       *<only one input per channel output,>

       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.

       For example, if you have a 5.1 source and want a stereo audio stream by dropping the extra
       channels:

               pan="stereo| c0=FL | c1=FR"

       Given the same source, you can also switch front left and front right channels and keep
       the input channel layout:

               pan="5.1| c0=c1 | c1=c0 | c2=c2 | c3=c3 | c4=c4 | c5=c5"

       If the input is a stereo audio stream, you can mute the front left channel (and still keep
       the stereo channel layout) with:

               pan="stereo|c1=c1"

       Still with a stereo audio stream input, you can copy the right channel in both front left
       and right:

               pan="stereo| c0=FR | c1=FR"

   replaygain
       ReplayGain scanner filter. This filter takes an audio stream as an input and outputs it
       unchanged.  At end of filtering it displays "track_gain" and "track_peak".

   resample
       Convert the audio sample format, sample rate and channel layout. It is not meant to be
       used directly.

   rubberband
       Apply time-stretching and pitch-shifting with librubberband.

   sidechaincompress
       This filter acts like normal compressor but has the ability to compress detected signal
       using second input signal.  It needs two input streams and returns one output stream.
       First input stream will be processed depending on second stream signal.  The filtered
       signal then can be filtered with other filters in later stages of processing. See pan and
       amerge filter.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       level_in
           Set input gain. Default is 1. Range is between 0.015625 and 64.

       threshold
           If a signal of second stream raises above this level it will affect the gain reduction
           of first stream.  By default is 0.125. Range is between 0.00097563 and 1.

       ratio
           Set a ratio about which the signal is reduced. 1:2 means that if the level raised 4dB
           above the threshold, it will be only 2dB above after the reduction.  Default is 2.
           Range is between 1 and 20.

       attack
           Amount of milliseconds the signal has to rise above the threshold before gain
           reduction starts. Default is 20. Range is between 0.01 and 2000.

       release
           Amount of milliseconds the signal has to fall below the threshold before reduction is
           decreased again. Default is 250. Range is between 0.01 and 9000.

       makeup
           Set the amount by how much signal will be amplified after processing.  Default is 1.
           Range is from 1 to 64.

       knee
           Curve the sharp knee around the threshold to enter gain reduction more softly.
           Default is 2.82843. Range is between 1 and 8.

       link
           Choose if the "average" level between all channels of side-chain stream or the
           louder("maximum") channel of side-chain stream affects the reduction. Default is
           "average".

       detection
           Should the exact signal be taken in case of "peak" or an RMS one in case of "rms".
           Default is "rms" which is mainly smoother.

       level_sc
           Set sidechain gain. Default is 1. Range is between 0.015625 and 64.

       mix How much to use compressed signal in output. Default is 1.  Range is between 0 and 1.

       Examples

       •   Full ffmpeg example taking 2 audio inputs, 1st input to be compressed depending on the
           signal of 2nd input and later compressed signal to be merged with 2nd input:

                   ffmpeg -i main.flac -i sidechain.flac -filter_complex "[1:a]asplit=2[sc][mix];[0:a][sc]sidechaincompress[compr];[compr][mix]amerge"

   sidechaingate
       A sidechain gate acts like a normal (wideband) gate but has the ability to filter the
       detected signal before sending it to the gain reduction stage.  Normally a gate uses the
       full range signal to detect a level above the threshold.  For example: If you cut all
       lower frequencies from your sidechain signal the gate will decrease the volume of your
       track only if not enough highs appear. With this technique you are able to reduce the
       resonation of a natural drum or remove "rumbling" of muted strokes from a heavily
       distorted guitar.  It needs two input streams and returns one output stream.  First input
       stream will be processed depending on second stream signal.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       level_in
           Set input level before filtering.  Default is 1. Allowed range is from 0.015625 to 64.

       range
           Set the level of gain reduction when the signal is below the threshold.  Default is
           0.06125. Allowed range is from 0 to 1.

       threshold
           If a signal rises above this level the gain reduction is released.  Default is 0.125.
           Allowed range is from 0 to 1.

       ratio
           Set a ratio about which the signal is reduced.  Default is 2. Allowed range is from 1
           to 9000.

       attack
           Amount of milliseconds the signal has to rise above the threshold before gain
           reduction stops.  Default is 20 milliseconds. Allowed range is from 0.01 to 9000.

       release
           Amount of milliseconds the signal has to fall below the threshold before the reduction
           is increased again. Default is 250 milliseconds.  Allowed range is from 0.01 to 9000.

       makeup
           Set amount of amplification of signal after processing.  Default is 1. Allowed range
           is from 1 to 64.

       knee
           Curve the sharp knee around the threshold to enter gain reduction more softly.
           Default is 2.828427125. Allowed range is from 1 to 8.

       detection
           Choose if exact signal should be taken for detection or an RMS like one.  Default is
           rms. Can be peak or rms.

       link
           Choose if the average level between all channels or the louder channel affects the
           reduction.  Default is average. Can be average or maximum.

       level_sc
           Set sidechain gain. Default is 1. Range is from 0.015625 to 64.

   silencedetect
       Detect silence in an audio stream.

       This filter logs a message when it detects that the input audio volume is less or equal to
       a noise tolerance value for a duration greater or equal to the minimum detected noise
       duration.

       The printed times and duration are expressed in seconds.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       duration, d
           Set silence duration until notification (default is 2 seconds).

       noise, n
           Set noise tolerance. Can be specified in dB (in case "dB" is appended to the specified
           value) or amplitude ratio. Default is -60dB, or 0.001.

       Examples

       •   Detect 5 seconds of silence with -50dB noise tolerance:

                   silencedetect=n=-50dB:d=5

       •   Complete example with ffmpeg to detect silence with 0.0001 noise tolerance in
           silence.mp3:

                   ffmpeg -i silence.mp3 -af silencedetect=noise=0.0001 -f null -

   silenceremove
       Remove silence from the beginning, middle or end of the audio.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       start_periods
           This value is used to indicate if audio should be trimmed at beginning of the audio. A
           value of zero indicates no silence should be trimmed from the beginning. When
           specifying a non-zero value, it trims audio up until it finds non-silence. Normally,
           when trimming silence from beginning of audio the start_periods will be 1 but it can
           be increased to higher values to trim all audio up to specific count of non-silence
           periods.  Default value is 0.

       start_duration
           Specify the amount of time that non-silence must be detected before it stops trimming
           audio. By increasing the duration, bursts of noises can be treated as silence and
           trimmed off. Default value is 0.

       start_threshold
           This indicates what sample value should be treated as silence. For digital audio, a
           value of 0 may be fine but for audio recorded from analog, you may wish to increase
           the value to account for background noise.  Can be specified in dB (in case "dB" is
           appended to the specified value) or amplitude ratio. Default value is 0.

       stop_periods
           Set the count for trimming silence from the end of audio.  To remove silence from the
           middle of a file, specify a stop_periods that is negative. This value is then treated
           as a positive value and is used to indicate the effect should restart processing as
           specified by start_periods, making it suitable for removing periods of silence in the
           middle of the audio.  Default value is 0.

       stop_duration
           Specify a duration of silence that must exist before audio is not copied any more. By
           specifying a higher duration, silence that is wanted can be left in the audio.
           Default value is 0.

       stop_threshold
           This is the same as start_threshold but for trimming silence from the end of audio.
           Can be specified in dB (in case "dB" is appended to the specified value) or amplitude
           ratio. Default value is 0.

       leave_silence
           This indicates that stop_duration length of audio should be left intact at the
           beginning of each period of silence.  For example, if you want to remove long pauses
           between words but do not want to remove the pauses completely. Default value is 0.

       detection
           Set how is silence detected. Can be "rms" or "peak". Second is faster and works better
           with digital silence which is exactly 0.  Default value is "rms".

       window
           Set ratio used to calculate size of window for detecting silence.  Default value is
           0.02. Allowed range is from 0 to 10.

       Examples

       •   The following example shows how this filter can be used to start a recording that does
           not contain the delay at the start which usually occurs between pressing the record
           button and the start of the performance:

                   silenceremove=1:5:0.02

       •   Trim all silence encountered from beginning to end where there is more than 1 second
           of silence in audio:

                   silenceremove=0:0:0:-1:1:-90dB

   sofalizer
       SOFAlizer uses head-related transfer functions (HRTFs) to create virtual loudspeakers
       around the user for binaural listening via headphones (audio formats up to 9 channels
       supported).  The HRTFs are stored in SOFA files (see <http://www.sofacoustics.org/> for a
       database).  SOFAlizer is developed at the Acoustics Research Institute (ARI) of the
       Austrian Academy of Sciences.

       To enable compilation of this filter you need to configure FFmpeg with
       "--enable-libmysofa".

       The filter accepts the following options:

       sofa
           Set the SOFA file used for rendering.

       gain
           Set gain applied to audio. Value is in dB. Default is 0.

       rotation
           Set rotation of virtual loudspeakers in deg. Default is 0.

       elevation
           Set elevation of virtual speakers in deg. Default is 0.

       radius
           Set distance in meters between loudspeakers and the listener with near-field HRTFs.
           Default is 1.

       type
           Set processing type. Can be time or freq. time is processing audio in time domain
           which is slow.  freq is processing audio in frequency domain which is fast.  Default
           is freq.

       speakers
           Set custom positions of virtual loudspeakers. Syntax for this option is: <CH> <AZIM>
           <ELEV>[|<CH> <AZIM> <ELEV>|...].  Each virtual loudspeaker is described with short
           channel name following with azimuth and elevation in degrees.  Each virtual
           loudspeaker description is separated by '|'.  For example to override front left and
           front right channel positions use: 'speakers=FL 45 15|FR 345 15'.  Descriptions with
           unrecognised channel names are ignored.

       lfegain
           Set custom gain for LFE channels. Value is in dB. Default is 0.

       Examples

       •   Using ClubFritz6 sofa file:

                   sofalizer=sofa=/path/to/ClubFritz6.sofa:type=freq:radius=1

       •   Using ClubFritz12 sofa file and bigger radius with small rotation:

                   sofalizer=sofa=/path/to/ClubFritz12.sofa:type=freq:radius=2:rotation=5

       •   Similar as above but with custom speaker positions for front left, front right, back
           left and back right and also with custom gain:

                   "sofalizer=sofa=/path/to/ClubFritz6.sofa:type=freq:radius=2:speakers=FL 45|FR 315|BL 135|BR 225:gain=28"

   stereowiden
       This filter enhance the stereo effect by suppressing signal common to both channels and by
       delaying the signal of left into right and vice versa, thereby widening the stereo effect.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       delay

           left signal in right output and vice versa which gives widening effect. Default is
           0.3.

       crossfeed
           Cross feed of left into right with inverted phase. This helps in suppressing the mono.
           If the value is 1 it will cancel all the signal common to both channels. Default is

   treble
       Boost or cut treble (upper) frequencies of the audio using a two-pole shelving filter with
       a response similar to that of a standard hi-fi's tone-controls. This is also known as
       shelving equalisation (EQ).

       The filter accepts the following options:

       gain, g
           Give the gain at whichever is the lower of ~22 kHz and the Nyquist frequency. Its
           useful range is about -20 (for a large cut) to +20 (for a large boost). Beware of
           clipping when using a positive gain.

       frequency, f
           Set the filter's central frequency and so can be used to extend or reduce the
           frequency range to be boosted or cut.  The default value is 3000 Hz.

       width_type, t

       channels, c
           Specify which channels to filter, by default all available are filtered.

   tremolo
       Sinusoidal amplitude modulation.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       f   Modulation frequency in Hertz. Modulation frequencies in the subharmonic range (20 Hz
           or lower) will result in a tremolo effect.  This filter may also be used as a ring
           modulator by specifying a modulation frequency higher than 20 Hz.  Range is 0.1 -
           20000.0. Default value is 5.0 Hz.

       d   Depth of modulation as a percentage. Range is 0.0 - 1.0.  Default value is 0.5.

   vibrato
       Sinusoidal phase modulation.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       f   Modulation frequency in Hertz.  Range is 0.1 - 20000.0. Default value is 5.0 Hz.

       d   Depth of modulation as a percentage. Range is 0.0 - 1.0.  Default value is 0.5.

   volume
       Adjust the input audio volume.

       It accepts the following parameters:

       volume
           Set audio volume expression.

           Output values are clipped to the maximum value.

           The output audio volume is given by the relation:

                   <output_volume> = <volume> * <input_volume>

           The default value for volume is "1.0".

       precision
           This parameter represents the mathematical precision.

           It determines which input sample formats will be allowed, which affects the precision
           of the volume scaling.

           fixed
               8-bit fixed-point; this limits input sample format to U8, S16, and S32.

           float
               32-bit floating-point; this limits input sample format to FLT. (default)

           double
               64-bit floating-point; this limits input sample format to DBL.

       replaygain
           Choose the behaviour on encountering ReplayGain side data in input frames.

           drop
               Remove ReplayGain side data, ignoring its contents (the default).

           ignore
               Ignore ReplayGain side data, but leave it in the frame.

           track
               Prefer the track gain, if present.

           album
               Prefer the album gain, if present.

       replaygain_preamp
           Pre-amplification gain in dB to apply to the selected replaygain gain.

           Default value for replaygain_preamp is 0.0.

       eval
           Set when the volume expression is evaluated.

           It accepts the following values:

           once
               only evaluate expression once during the filter initialization, or when the volume
               command is sent

           frame
               evaluate expression for each incoming frame

           Default value is once.

       The volume expression can contain the following parameters.

       n   frame number (starting at zero)

       nb_channels
           number of channels

       nb_consumed_samples
           number of samples consumed by the filter

       nb_samples
           number of samples in the current frame

       pos original frame position in the file

       pts frame PTS

       sample_rate
           sample rate

       startpts
           PTS at start of stream

       startt
           time at start of stream

       t   frame time

       tb  timestamp timebase

       volume
           last set volume value

       Note that when eval is set to once only the sample_rate and tb variables are available,
       all other variables will evaluate to NAN.

       Commands

       This filter supports the following commands:

       volume
           Modify the volume expression.  The command accepts the same syntax of the
           corresponding option.

           If the specified expression is not valid, it is kept at its current value.

       replaygain_noclip
           Prevent clipping by limiting the gain applied.

           Default value for replaygain_noclip is 1.

       Examples

       •   Halve the input audio volume:

                   volume=volume=0.5
                   volume=volume=1/2
                   volume=volume=-6.0206dB

           In all the above example the named key for volume can be omitted, for example like in:

                   volume=0.5

       •   Increase input audio power by 6 decibels using fixed-point precision:

                   volume=volume=6dB:precision=fixed

       •   Fade volume after time 10 with an annihilation period of 5 seconds:

                   volume='if(lt(t,10),1,max(1-(t-10)/5,0))':eval=frame

   volumedetect
       Detect the volume of the input video.

       The filter has no parameters. The input is not modified. Statistics about the volume will
       be printed in the log when the input stream end is reached.

       In particular it will show the mean volume (root mean square), maximum volume (on a per-
       sample basis), and the beginning of a histogram of the registered volume values (from the
       maximum value to a cumulated 1/1000 of the samples).

       All volumes are in decibels relative to the maximum PCM value.

       Examples

       Here is an excerpt of the output:

               [Parsed_volumedetect_0  0xa23120] mean_volume: -27 dB
               [Parsed_volumedetect_0  0xa23120] max_volume: -4 dB
               [Parsed_volumedetect_0  0xa23120] histogram_4db: 6
               [Parsed_volumedetect_0  0xa23120] histogram_5db: 62
               [Parsed_volumedetect_0  0xa23120] histogram_6db: 286
               [Parsed_volumedetect_0  0xa23120] histogram_7db: 1042
               [Parsed_volumedetect_0  0xa23120] histogram_8db: 2551
               [Parsed_volumedetect_0  0xa23120] histogram_9db: 4609
               [Parsed_volumedetect_0  0xa23120] histogram_10db: 8409

       It means that:

       •   The mean square energy is approximately -27 dB, or 10^-2.7.

       •   The largest sample is at -4 dB, or more precisely between -4 dB and -5 dB.

       •   There are 6 samples at -4 dB, 62 at -5 dB, 286 at -6 dB, etc.

       In other words, raising the volume by +4 dB does not cause any clipping, raising it by +5
       dB causes clipping for 6 samples, etc.

AUDIO SOURCES

       Below is a description of the currently available audio sources.

   abuffer
       Buffer audio frames, and make them available to the filter chain.

       This source is mainly intended for a programmatic use, in particular through the interface
       defined in libavfilter/asrc_abuffer.h.

       It accepts the following parameters:

       time_base
           The timebase which will be used for timestamps of submitted frames. It must be either
           a floating-point number or in numerator/denominator form.

       sample_rate
           The sample rate of the incoming audio buffers.

       sample_fmt
           The sample format of the incoming audio buffers.  Either a sample format name or its
           corresponding integer representation from the enum AVSampleFormat in
           libavutil/samplefmt.h

       channel_layout
           The channel layout of the incoming audio buffers.  Either a channel layout name from
           channel_layout_map in libavutil/channel_layout.c or its corresponding integer
           representation from the AV_CH_LAYOUT_* macros in libavutil/channel_layout.h

       channels
           The number of channels of the incoming audio buffers.  If both channels and
           channel_layout are specified, then they must be consistent.

       Examples

               abuffer=sample_rate=44100:sample_fmt=s16p:channel_layout=stereo

       will instruct the source to accept planar 16bit signed stereo at 44100Hz.  Since the
       sample format with name "s16p" corresponds to the number 6 and the "stereo" channel layout
       corresponds to the value 0x3, this is equivalent to:

               abuffer=sample_rate=44100:sample_fmt=6:channel_layout=0x3

   aevalsrc
       Generate an audio signal specified by an expression.

       This source accepts in input one or more expressions (one for each channel), which are
       evaluated and used to generate a corresponding audio signal.

       This source accepts the following options:

       exprs
           Set the '|'-separated expressions list for each separate channel. In case the
           channel_layout option is not specified, the selected channel layout depends on the
           number of provided expressions. Otherwise the last specified expression is applied to
           the remaining output channels.

       channel_layout, c
           Set the channel layout. The number of channels in the specified layout must be equal
           to the number of specified expressions.

       duration, d
           Set the minimum duration of the sourced audio. See the Time duration section in the
           ffmpeg-utils(1) manual for the accepted syntax.  Note that the resulting duration may
           be greater than the specified duration, as the generated audio is always cut at the
           end of a complete frame.

           If not specified, or the expressed duration is negative, the audio is supposed to be
           generated forever.

       nb_samples, n
           Set the number of samples per channel per each output frame, default to 1024.

       sample_rate, s
           Specify the sample rate, default to 44100.

       Each expression in exprs can contain the following constants:

       n   number of the evaluated sample, starting from 0

       t   time of the evaluated sample expressed in seconds, starting from 0

       s   sample rate

       Examples

       •   Generate silence:

                   aevalsrc=0

       •   Generate a sin signal with frequency of 440 Hz, set sample rate to 8000 Hz:

                   aevalsrc="sin(440*2*PI*t):s=8000"

       •   Generate a two channels signal, specify the channel layout (Front Center + Back
           Center) explicitly:

                   aevalsrc="sin(420*2*PI*t)|cos(430*2*PI*t):c=FC|BC"

       •   Generate white noise:

                   aevalsrc="-2+random(0)"

       •   Generate an amplitude modulated signal:

                   aevalsrc="sin(10*2*PI*t)*sin(880*2*PI*t)"

       •   Generate 2.5 Hz binaural beats on a 360 Hz carrier:

                   aevalsrc="0.1*sin(2*PI*(360-2.5/2)*t) | 0.1*sin(2*PI*(360+2.5/2)*t)"

   anullsrc
       The null audio source, return unprocessed audio frames. It is mainly useful as a template
       and to be employed in analysis / debugging tools, or as the source for filters which
       ignore the input data (for example the sox synth filter).

       This source accepts the following options:

       channel_layout, cl
           Specifies the channel layout, and can be either an integer or a string representing a
           channel layout. The default value of channel_layout is "stereo".

           Check the channel_layout_map definition in libavutil/channel_layout.c for the mapping
           between strings and channel layout values.

       sample_rate, r
           Specifies the sample rate, and defaults to 44100.

       nb_samples, n
           Set the number of samples per requested frames.

       Examples

       •   Set the sample rate to 48000 Hz and the channel layout to AV_CH_LAYOUT_MONO.

                   anullsrc=r=48000:cl=4

       •   Do the same operation with a more obvious syntax:

                   anullsrc=r=48000:cl=mono

       All the parameters need to be explicitly defined.

   flite
       Synthesize a voice utterance using the libflite library.

       To enable compilation of this filter you need to configure FFmpeg with
       "--enable-libflite".

       Note that the flite library is not thread-safe.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       list_voices
           If set to 1, list the names of the available voices and exit immediately. Default
           value is 0.

       nb_samples, n
           Set the maximum number of samples per frame. Default value is 512.

       textfile
           Set the filename containing the text to speak.

       text
           Set the text to speak.

       voice, v
           Set the voice to use for the speech synthesis. Default value is "kal". See also the
           list_voices option.

       Examples

       •   Read from file speech.txt, and synthesize the text using the standard flite voice:

                   flite=textfile=speech.txt

       •   Read the specified text selecting the "slt" voice:

                   flite=text='So fare thee well, poor devil of a Sub-Sub, whose commentator I am':voice=slt

       •   Input text to ffmpeg:

                   ffmpeg -f lavfi -i flite=text='So fare thee well, poor devil of a Sub-Sub, whose commentator I am':voice=slt

       •   Make ffplay speak the specified text, using "flite" and the "lavfi" device:

                   ffplay -f lavfi flite=text='No more be grieved for which that thou hast done.'

AUDIO SINKS

       Below is a description of the currently available audio sinks.

   abuffersink
       Buffer audio frames, and make them available to the end of filter chain.

       This sink is mainly intended for programmatic use, in particular through the interface
       defined in libavfilter/buffersink.h or the options system.

       It accepts a pointer to an AVABufferSinkContext structure, which defines the incoming
       buffers' formats, to be passed as the opaque parameter to "avfilter_init_filter" for
       initialization.

   anullsink
       Null audio sink; do absolutely nothing with the input audio. It is mainly useful as a
       template and for use in analysis / debugging tools.

VIDEO FILTERS

       When you configure your FFmpeg build, you can disable any of the existing filters using
       "--disable-filters".  The configure output will show the video filters included in your
       build.

       Below is a description of the currently available video filters.

   alphaextract
       Extract the alpha component from the input as a grayscale video. This is especially useful
       with the alphamerge filter.

   alphamerge
       Add or replace the alpha component of the primary input with the grayscale value of a
       second input. This is intended for use with alphaextract to allow the transmission or
       storage of frame sequences that have alpha in a format that doesn't support an alpha
       channel.

       For example, to reconstruct full frames from a normal YUV-encoded video and a separate
       video created with alphaextract, you might use:

               movie=in_alpha.mkv [alpha]; [in][alpha] alphamerge [out]

       Since this filter is designed for reconstruction, it operates on frame sequences without
       considering timestamps, and terminates when either input reaches end of stream. This will
       cause problems if your encoding pipeline drops frames. If you're trying to apply an image
       as an overlay to a video stream, consider the overlay filter instead.

   ass
       Same as the subtitles filter, except that it doesn't require libavcodec and libavformat to
       work. On the other hand, it is limited to ASS (Advanced Substation Alpha) subtitles files.

       This filter accepts the following option in addition to the common options from the
       subtitles filter:

       shaping
           Set the shaping engine

           Available values are:

           auto
               The default libass shaping engine, which is the best available.

           simple
               Fast, font-agnostic shaper that can do only substitutions

           complex
               Slower shaper using OpenType for substitutions and positioning

           The default is "auto".

   atadenoise
       Apply an Adaptive Temporal Averaging Denoiser to the video input.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       0a  Set threshold A for 1st plane. Default is 0.02.  Valid range is 0 to 0.3.

       0b  Set threshold B for 1st plane. Default is 0.04.  Valid range is 0 to 5.

       1a  Set threshold A for 2nd plane. Default is 0.02.  Valid range is 0 to 0.3.

       1b  Set threshold B for 2nd plane. Default is 0.04.  Valid range is 0 to 5.

       2a  Set threshold A for 3rd plane. Default is 0.02.  Valid range is 0 to 0.3.

       2b  Set threshold B for 3rd plane. Default is 0.04.  Valid range is 0 to 5.

           Threshold A is designed to react on abrupt changes in the input signal and threshold B
           is designed to react on continuous changes in the input signal.

       s   Set number of frames filter will use for averaging. Default is 33. Must be odd number
           in range [5, 129].

       p   Set what planes of frame filter will use for averaging. Default is all.

   avgblur
       Apply average blur filter.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       sizeX
           Set horizontal kernel size.

       planes
           Set which planes to filter. By default all planes are filtered.

       sizeY
           Set vertical kernel size, if zero it will be same as "sizeX".  Default is 0.

   bbox
       Compute the bounding box for the non-black pixels in the input frame luminance plane.

       This filter computes the bounding box containing all the pixels with a luminance value
       greater than the minimum allowed value.  The parameters describing the bounding box are
       printed on the filter log.

       The filter accepts the following option:

       min_val
           Set the minimal luminance value. Default is 16.

   bitplanenoise
       Show and measure bit plane noise.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       bitplane
           Set which plane to analyze. Default is 1.

       filter
           Filter out noisy pixels from "bitplane" set above.  Default is disabled.

   blackdetect
       Detect video intervals that are (almost) completely black. Can be useful to detect chapter
       transitions, commercials, or invalid recordings. Output lines contains the time for the
       start, end and duration of the detected black interval expressed in seconds.

       In order to display the output lines, you need to set the loglevel at least to the
       AV_LOG_INFO value.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       black_min_duration, d
           Set the minimum detected black duration expressed in seconds. It must be a non-
           negative floating point number.

           Default value is 2.0.

       picture_black_ratio_th, pic_th
           Set the threshold for considering a picture "black".  Express the minimum value for
           the ratio:

                   <nb_black_pixels> / <nb_pixels>

           for which a picture is considered black.  Default value is 0.98.

       pixel_black_th, pix_th
           Set the threshold for considering a pixel "black".

           The threshold expresses the maximum pixel luminance value for which a pixel is
           considered "black". The provided value is scaled according to the following equation:

                   <absolute_threshold> = <luminance_minimum_value> + <pixel_black_th> * <luminance_range_size>

           luminance_range_size and luminance_minimum_value depend on the input video format, the
           range is [0-255] for YUV full-range formats and [16-235] for YUV non full-range
           formats.

           Default value is 0.10.

       The following example sets the maximum pixel threshold to the minimum value, and detects
       only black intervals of 2 or more seconds:

               blackdetect=d=2:pix_th=0.00

   blackframe
       Detect frames that are (almost) completely black. Can be useful to detect chapter
       transitions or commercials. Output lines consist of the frame number of the detected
       frame, the percentage of blackness, the position in the file if known or -1 and the
       timestamp in seconds.

       In order to display the output lines, you need to set the loglevel at least to the
       AV_LOG_INFO value.

       This filter exports frame metadata "lavfi.blackframe.pblack".  The value represents the
       percentage of pixels in the picture that are below the threshold value.

       It accepts the following parameters:

       amount
           The percentage of the pixels that have to be below the threshold; it defaults to 98.

       threshold, thresh
           The threshold below which a pixel value is considered black; it defaults to 32.

   blend, tblend
       Blend two video frames into each other.

       The "blend" filter takes two input streams and outputs one stream, the first input is the
       "top" layer and second input is "bottom" layer.  By default, the output terminates when
       the longest input terminates.

       The "tblend" (time blend) filter takes two consecutive frames from one single stream, and
       outputs the result obtained by blending the new frame on top of the old frame.

       A description of the accepted options follows.

       c0_mode
       c1_mode
       c2_mode
       c3_mode
       all_mode

           screen
           softlight
           subtract
           vividlight
           xor

           N   The sequential number of the filtered frame, starting from 0.

           X
           Y   the coordinates of the current sample

               between the corresponding luma plane number of pixels and the current plane ones.
               E.g. for YUV4:2:0 the values are "1,1" for the luma plane, and "0.5,0.5" for
               chroma planes.

           T   Time of the current frame, expressed in seconds.

               layer).

       The "blend" filter also supports the framesync options.

       Examples

       •   Apply transition from bottom layer to top layer in first 10 seconds:

                   blend=all_expr='A*(if(gte(T,10),1,T/10))+B*(1-(if(gte(T,10),1,T/10)))'

       A description of the accepted options follows.

       luma_radius, lr
       chroma_radius, cr
       alpha_radius, ar
           Set an expression for the box radius in pixels used for blurring the corresponding
           input plane.

           The radius value must be a non-negative number, and must not be greater than the value
           of the expression "min(w,h)/2" for the luma and alpha planes, and of "min(cw,ch)/2"
           for the chroma planes.

           Default value for luma_radius is "2". If not specified, chroma_radius and alpha_radius
           default to the corresponding value set for luma_radius.

           The expressions can contain the following constants:

           w
           h   The input width and height in pixels.

       chroma_power, cp
       alpha_power, ap
           Specify how many times the boxblur filter is applied to the corresponding plane.

           Default value for luma_power is 2. If not specified, chroma_power and alpha_power
           default to the corresponding value set for luma_power.

           A value of 0 will disable the effect.

       Examples

       •   Apply a boxblur filter with the luma, chroma, and alpha radii set to 2:

                   boxblur=luma_radius=2:luma_power=1
                   boxblur=2:1

       •   Set the luma radius to 2, and alpha and chroma radius to 0:

                   boxblur=2:1:cr=0:ar=0

       •   Set the luma and chroma radii to a fraction of the video dimension:

                   boxblur=luma_radius=min(h\,w)/10:luma_power=1:chroma_radius=min(cw\,ch)/10:chroma_power=1

   bwdif
       Deinterlace the input video ("bwdif" stands for "Bob Weaver Deinterlacing Filter").

       interpolation algorithms.  It accepts the following parameters:

       mode
           The interlacing mode to adopt. It accepts one of the following values:

           0, send_frame
               Output one frame for each frame.

           1, send_field
               Output one frame for each field.

           The default value is "send_field".

       parity
           The picture field parity assumed for the input interlaced video. It accepts one of the
           following values:

           0, tff
               Assume the top field is first.

           1, bff
               Assume the bottom field is first.

           -1, auto
               Enable automatic detection of field parity.

           The default value is "auto".  If the interlacing is unknown or the decoder does not
           export this information, top field first will be assumed.

       deint
           Specify which frames to deinterlace. Accept one of the following values:

           0, all
               Deinterlace all frames.

           1, interlaced
               Only deinterlace frames marked as interlaced.

           The default value is "all".

   chromakey
       YUV colorspace color/chroma keying.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       color
           The color which will be replaced with transparency.

       similarity
           Similarity percentage with the key color.

           0.01 matches only the exact key color, while 1.0 matches everything.

       blend
           Blend percentage.

           0.0 makes pixels either fully transparent, or not transparent at all.

           Higher values result in semi-transparent pixels, with a higher transparency the more
           similar the pixels color is to the key color.

       yuv Signals that the color passed is already in YUV instead of RGB.

           Literal colors like "green" or "red" don't make sense with this enabled anymore.  This
           can be used to pass exact YUV values as hexadecimal numbers.

       Examples

       •   Make every green pixel in the input image transparent:

                   ffmpeg -i input.png -vf chromakey=green out.png

       •   Overlay a greenscreen-video on top of a static black background.

                   ffmpeg -f lavfi -i color=c=black:s=1280x720 -i video.mp4 -shortest -filter_complex "[1:v]chromakey=0x70de77:0.1:0.2[ckout];[0:v][ckout]overlay[out]" -map "[out]" output.mkv

   colorbalance
       Modify intensity of primary colors (red, green and blue) of input frames.

       The filter allows an input frame to be adjusted in the shadows, midtones or highlights
       regions for the red-cyan, green-magenta or blue-yellow balance.

       A positive adjustment value shifts the balance towards the primary color, a negative value
       towards the complementary color.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       rs
       gs
       bs  Adjust red, green and blue shadows (darkest pixels).

       rm
       gm
       bm  Adjust red, green and blue midtones (medium pixels).

       gh
       bh  Adjust red, green and blue highlights (brightest pixels).

           Allowed ranges for options are "[-1.0, 1.0]". Defaults are 0.

       Examples

       •   Add red color cast to shadows:

                   colorbalance=rs=.3

   colorkey
       RGB colorspace color keying.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       color
           The color which will be replaced with transparency.

       similarity
           Similarity percentage with the key color.

           0.01 matches only the exact key color, while 1.0 matches everything.

       blend
           Blend percentage.

           0.0 makes pixels either fully transparent, or not transparent at all.

           Higher values result in semi-transparent pixels, with a higher transparency the more
           similar the pixels color is to the key color.

       Examples

       •   Make every green pixel in the input image transparent:

                   ffmpeg -i input.png -vf colorkey=green out.png

       •   Overlay a greenscreen-video on top of a static background image.

           Override all input properties at once. Same accepted values as all.

       ispace
           Override input colorspace. Same accepted values as space.

       iprimaries
           Override input color primaries. Same accepted values as primaries.

       itrc
           Override input transfer characteristics. Same accepted values as trc.

       irange
           Override input color range. Same accepted values as range.

       The filter converts the transfer characteristics, color space and color primaries to the
       specified user values. The output value, if not specified, is set to a default value based
       on the "all" property. If that property is also not specified, the filter will log an
       error. The output color range and format default to the same value as the input color
       range and format. The input transfer characteristics, color space, color primaries and
       color range should be set on the input data. If any of these are missing, the filter will
       log an error and no conversion will take place.

       For example to convert the input to SMPTE-240M, use the command:

               colorspace=smpte240m

   convolution
       Apply convolution 3x3 or 5x5 filter.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       0m
       1m

           Set multiplier for calculated value for each plane.

       0bias
       1bias
       2bias
       3bias
           Set bias for each plane. This value is added to the result of the multiplication.
           Useful for making the overall image brighter or darker. Default is 0.0.

       The "convolve" filter also supports the framesync options.

   copy
       Copy the input video source unchanged to the output. This is mainly useful for testing
       purposes.

   coreimage
       Video filtering on GPU using Apple's CoreImage API on OSX.

       Hardware acceleration is based on an OpenGL context. Usually, this means it is processed
       by video hardware. However, software-based OpenGL implementations exist which means there
       is no guarantee for hardware processing. It depends on the respective OSX.

       There are many filters and image generators provided by Apple that come with a large
       variety of options. The filter has to be referenced by its name along with its options.

       The coreimage filter accepts the following options:

       list_filters
           List all available filters and generators along with all their respective options as
           well as possible minimum and maximum values along with the default values.

                   list_filters=true

       filter
           Specify all filters by their respective name and options.  Use list_filters to
           determine all valid filter names and options.  Numerical options are specified by a
           float value and are automatically clamped to their respective value range.  Vector and
           color options have to be specified by a list of space separated float values.
           Character escaping has to be done.  A special option name "default" is available to
           use default options for a filter.

           It is required to specify either "default" or at least one of the filter options.  All
           omitted options are used with their default values.  The syntax of the filter string
           is as follows:

                   filter=<NAME>@<OPTION>=<VALUE>[@<OPTION>=<VALUE>][@...][#<NAME>@<OPTION>=<VALUE>[@<OPTION>=<VALUE>][@...]][#...]

       output_rect
           Specify a rectangle where the output of the filter chain is copied into the input
           image. It is given by a list of space separated float values:

                   output_rect=x\ y\ width\ height

           If not given, the output rectangle equals the dimensions of the input image.  The
           output rectangle is automatically cropped at the borders of the input image. Negative
           values are valid for each component.

                   output_rect=25\ 25\ 100\ 100

       Several filters can be chained for successive processing without GPU-HOST transfers
       allowing for fast processing of complex filter chains.  Currently, only filters with zero
       (generators) or exactly one (filters) input image and one output image are supported.
       Also, transition filters are not yet usable as intended.

       Some filters generate output images with additional padding depending on the respective
       filter kernel. The padding is automatically removed to ensure the filter output has the
       same size as the input image.

       For image generators, the size of the output image is determined by the previous output
       image of the filter chain or the input image of the whole filterchain, respectively. The
       generators do not use the pixel information of this image to generate their output.
       However, the generated output is blended onto this image, resulting in partial or complete
       coverage of the output image.

       The coreimagesrc video source can be used for generating input images which are directly
       fed into the filter chain. By using it, providing input images by another video source or
       an input video is not required.

       Examples

       •   List all filters available:

                   coreimage=list_filters=true

       •   Use the CIBoxBlur filter with default options to blur an image:

                   coreimage=filter=CIBoxBlur@default

       •   Use a filter chain with CISepiaTone at default values and CIVignetteEffect with its
           center at 100x100 and a radius of 50 pixels:

                   coreimage=filter=CIBoxBlur@default#CIVignetteEffect@inputCenter=100\ 100@inputRadius=50

       •   Use nullsrc and CIQRCodeGenerator to create a QR code for the FFmpeg homepage, given
           as complete and escaped command-line for Apple's standard bash shell:

                   ffmpeg -f lavfi -i nullsrc=s=100x100,coreimage=filter=CIQRCodeGenerator@inputMessage=https\\\\\://FFmpeg.org/@inputCorrectionLevel=H -frames:v 1 QRCode.png

   crop
       Crop the input video to given dimensions.

       It accepts the following parameters:

       w, out_w
           The width of the output video. It defaults to "iw".  This expression is evaluated only
           once during the filter configuration, or when the w or out_w command is sent.

       h, out_h
           The height of the output video. It defaults to "ih".  This expression is evaluated
           only once during the filter configuration, or when the h or out_h command is sent.

       x   The horizontal position, in the input video, of the left edge of the output video. It
           defaults to "(in_w-out_w)/2".  This expression is evaluated per-frame.

       y   The vertical position, in the input video, of the top edge of the output video.  It
           defaults to "(in_h-out_h)/2".  This expression is evaluated per-frame.

       keep_aspect
           If set to 1 will force the output display aspect ratio to be the same of the input, by
           changing the output sample aspect ratio. It defaults to 0.

       exact
           Enable exact cropping. If enabled, subsampled videos will be cropped at exact
           width/height/x/y as specified and will not be rounded to nearest smaller value.  It
           defaults to 0.

       The out_w, out_h, x, y parameters are expressions containing the following constants:

       x
       y   The computed values for x and y. They are evaluated for each new frame.

       in_w
       in_h
           The input width and height.

       iw
       ih  These are the same as in_w and in_h.

       out_w
       out_h
           The output (cropped) width and height.

       ow
       oh  These are the same as out_w and out_h.

       a   same as iw / ih

       sar input sample aspect ratio

       dar input display aspect ratio, it is the same as (iw / ih) * sar

       hsub
       vsub
           horizontal and vertical chroma subsample values. For example for the pixel format
           "yuv422p" hsub is 2 and vsub is 1.

       n   The number of the input frame, starting from 0.

       pos the position in the file of the input frame, NAN if unknown

       t   The timestamp expressed in seconds. It's NAN if the input timestamp is unknown.

       The expression for out_w may depend on the value of out_h, and the expression for out_h
       may depend on out_w, but they cannot depend on x and y, as x and y are evaluated after
       out_w and out_h.

       The x and y parameters specify the expressions for the position of the top-left corner of
       the output (non-cropped) area. They are evaluated for each frame. If the evaluated value
       is not valid, it is approximated to the nearest valid value.

       The expression for x may depend on y, and the expression for y may depend on x.

       Examples

       •   Crop area with size 100x100 at position (12,34).

                   crop=100:100:12:34

           Using named options, the example above becomes:

                   crop=w=100:h=100:x=12:y=34

       •   Crop the central input area with size 100x100:

                   crop=100:100

       •   Crop the central input area with size 2/3 of the input video:

                   crop=2/3*in_w:2/3*in_h

       •   Crop the input video central square:

                   crop=out_w=in_h
                   crop=in_h

       •   Delimit the rectangle with the top-left corner placed at position 100:100 and the
           right-bottom corner corresponding to the right-bottom corner of the input image.

                   crop=in_w-100:in_h-100:100:100

       •   Crop 10 pixels from the left and right borders, and 20 pixels from the top and bottom
           borders

                   crop=in_w-2*10:in_h-2*20

       •   Keep only the bottom right quarter of the input image:

                   crop=in_w/2:in_h/2:in_w/2:in_h/2

       •   Crop height for getting Greek harmony:

                   crop=in_w:1/PHI*in_w

       •   Apply trembling effect:

                   crop=in_w/2:in_h/2:(in_w-out_w)/2+((in_w-out_w)/2)*sin(n/10):(in_h-out_h)/2 +((in_h-out_h)/2)*sin(n/7)

       •   Apply erratic camera effect depending on timestamp:

                   crop=in_w/2:in_h/2:(in_w-out_w)/2+((in_w-out_w)/2)*sin(t*10):(in_h-out_h)/2 +((in_h-out_h)/2)*sin(t*13)"

       •   Set x depending on the value of y:

                   crop=in_w/2:in_h/2:y:10+10*sin(n/10)

       Commands

       This filter supports the following commands:

       w, out_w
       h, out_h
       x
       y   Set width/height of the output video and the horizontal/vertical position in the input
           video.  The command accepts the same syntax of the corresponding option.

           If the specified expression is not valid, it is kept at its current value.

   cropdetect
       Auto-detect the crop size.

       It calculates the necessary cropping parameters and prints the recommended parameters via
       the logging system. The detected dimensions correspond to the non-black area of the input
       video.

       It accepts the following parameters:

       limit
           Set higher black value threshold, which can be optionally specified from nothing (0)
           to everything (255 for 8-bit based formats). An intensity value greater to the set
           value is considered non-black. It defaults to 24.  You can also specify a value
           between 0.0 and 1.0 which will be scaled depending on the bitdepth of the pixel
           format.

       round
           The value which the width/height should be divisible by. It defaults to 16. The offset
           is automatically adjusted to center the video. Use 2 to get only even dimensions
           (needed for 4:2:2 video). 16 is best when encoding to most video codecs.

       reset_count, reset
           Set the counter that determines after how many frames cropdetect will reset the
           previously detected largest video area and start over to detect the current optimal
           crop area. Default value is 0.

           This can be useful when channel logos distort the video area. 0 indicates 'never
           reset', and returns the largest area encountered during playback.

   curves
       Apply color adjustments using curves.

       This filter is similar to the Adobe Photoshop and GIMP curves tools. Each component (red,
       green and blue) has its values defined by N key points tied from each other using a smooth
       curve. The x-axis represents the pixel values from the input frame, and the y-axis the new
       pixel values to be set for the output frame.

       By default, a component curve is defined by the two points (0;0) and (1;1). This creates a
       straight line where each original pixel value is "adjusted" to its own value, which means
       no change to the image.

       The filter allows you to redefine these two points and add some more. A new curve (using a
       natural cubic spline interpolation) will be define to pass smoothly through all these new
       coordinates. The new defined points needs to be strictly increasing over the x-axis, and
       their x and y values must be in the [0;1] interval.  If the computed curves happened to go
       outside the vector spaces, the values will be clipped accordingly.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       preset
           Select one of the available color presets. This option can be used in addition to the
           r, g, b parameters; in this case, the later options takes priority on the preset
           values.  Available presets are:

           none
           color_negative
           cross_process
           darker
           increase_contrast
           lighter
           linear_contrast
           medium_contrast
           negative
           strong_contrast
           vintage

           Default is "none".

       master, m
           Set the master key points. These points will define a second pass mapping. It is
           sometimes called a "luminance" or "value" mapping. It can be used with r, g, b or all
           since it acts like a post-processing LUT.

       red, r
           Set the key points for the red component.

       green, g
           Set the key points for the green component.

       blue, b
           Set the key points for the blue component.

       all Set the key points for all components (not including master).  Can be used in addition
           to the other key points component options. In this case, the unset component(s) will
           fallback on this all setting.

       psfile
           Specify a Photoshop curves file (".acv") to import the settings from.

       plot
           Save Gnuplot script of the curves in specified file.

       To avoid some filtergraph syntax conflicts, each key points list need to be defined using
       the following syntax: "x0/y0 x1/y1 x2/y2 ...".

       Examples

       •   Increase slightly the middle level of blue:

                   curves=blue='0/0 0.5/0.58 1/1'

       •   Vintage effect:

                   curves=r='0/0.11 .42/.51 1/0.95':g='0/0 0.50/0.48 1/1':b='0/0.22 .49/.44 1/0.8'

           Here we obtain the following coordinates for each components:

           red "(0;0.11) (0.42;0.51) (1;0.95)"

           green
               "(0;0) (0.50;0.48) (1;1)"

           blue
               "(0;0.22) (0.49;0.44) (1;0.80)"

       •   The previous example can also be achieved with the associated built-in preset:

                   curves=preset=vintage

       •   Or simply:

                   curves=vintage

       •   Use a Photoshop preset and redefine the points of the green component:

                   curves=psfile='MyCurvesPresets/purple.acv':green='0/0 0.45/0.53 1/1'

       •   Check out the curves of the "cross_process" profile using ffmpeg and gnuplot:

                   ffmpeg -f lavfi -i color -vf curves=cross_process:plot=/tmp/curves.plt -frames:v 1 -f null -
                   gnuplot -p /tmp/curves.plt

   datascope
       Video data analysis filter.

       This filter shows hexadecimal pixel values of part of video.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       size, s
           Set output video size.

       x   Set x offset from where to pick pixels.

       y   Set y offset from where to pick pixels.

       mode
           Set scope mode, can be one of the following:

           mono
               Draw hexadecimal pixel values with white color on black background.

           color
               Draw hexadecimal pixel values with input video pixel color on black background.

           color2
               Draw hexadecimal pixel values on color background picked from input video, the
               text color is picked in such way so its always visible.

       axis
           Draw rows and columns numbers on left and top of video.

       opacity
           Set background opacity.

   dctdnoiz
       Denoise frames using 2D DCT (frequency domain filtering).

       This filter is not designed for real time.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       sigma, s
           Set the noise sigma constant.

           This sigma defines a hard threshold of "3 * sigma"; every DCT coefficient (absolute
           value) below this threshold with be dropped.

           If you need a more advanced filtering, see expr.

           Default is 0.

       overlap
           Set number overlapping pixels for each block. Since the filter can be slow, you may
           want to reduce this value, at the cost of a less effective filter and the risk of
           various artefacts.

           If the overlapping value doesn't permit processing the whole input width or height, a
           warning will be displayed and according borders won't be denoised.

           Default value is blocksize-1, which is the best possible setting.

       expr, e
           Set the coefficient factor expression.

           For each coefficient of a DCT block, this expression will be evaluated as a multiplier
           value for the coefficient.

           If this is option is set, the sigma option will be ignored.

           The absolute value of the coefficient can be accessed through the c variable.

       n   Set the blocksize using the number of bits. "1<<n" defines the blocksize, which is the
           width and height of the processed blocks.

           The default value is 3 (8x8) and can be raised to 4 for a blocksize of 16x16. Note
           that changing this setting has huge consequences on the speed processing. Also, a
           larger block size does not necessarily means a better de-noising.

       Examples

       Apply a denoise with a sigma of 4.5:

               dctdnoiz=4.5

       The same operation can be achieved using the expression system:

               dctdnoiz=e='gte(c, 4.5*3)'

       Violent denoise using a block size of "16x16":

               dctdnoiz=15:n=4

   deband
       Remove banding artifacts from input video.  It works by replacing banded pixels with
       average value of referenced pixels.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       1thr
       2thr
       3thr
       4thr
           Set banding detection threshold for each plane. Default is 0.02.  Valid range is
           0.00003 to 0.5.  If difference between current pixel and reference pixel is less than
           threshold, it will be considered as banded.

       range, r
           Banding detection range in pixels. Default is 16. If positive, random number in range
           0 to set value will be used. If negative, exact absolute value will be used.  The
           range defines square of four pixels around current pixel.

       direction, d
           Set direction in radians from which four pixel will be compared. If positive, random
           direction from 0 to set direction will be picked. If negative, exact of absolute value
           will be picked. For example direction 0, -PI or -2*PI radians will pick only pixels on
           same row and -PI/2 will pick only pixels on same column.

       blur, b
           If enabled, current pixel is compared with average value of all four surrounding
           pixels. The default is enabled. If disabled current pixel is compared with all four
           surrounding pixels. The pixel is considered banded if only all four differences with
           surrounding pixels are less than threshold.

       coupling, c
           If enabled, current pixel is changed if and only if all pixel components are banded,
           e.g. banding detection threshold is triggered for all color components.  The default
           is disabled.

   decimate
       Drop duplicated frames at regular intervals.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       cycle
           Set the number of frames from which one will be dropped. Setting this to N means one
           frame in every batch of N frames will be dropped.  Default is 5.

       dupthresh
           Set the threshold for duplicate detection. If the difference metric for a frame is
           less than or equal to this value, then it is declared as duplicate. Default is 1.1

       scthresh
           Set scene change threshold. Default is 15.

       blockx
       blocky
           Set the size of the x and y-axis blocks used during metric calculations.  Larger
           blocks give better noise suppression, but also give worse detection of small
           movements. Must be a power of two. Default is 32.

       ppsrc
           Mark main input as a pre-processed input and activate clean source input stream. This
           allows the input to be pre-processed with various filters to help the metrics
           calculation while keeping the frame selection lossless. When set to 1, the first
           stream is for the pre-processed input, and the second stream is the clean source from
           where the kept frames are chosen. Default is 0.

       chroma
           Set whether or not chroma is considered in the metric calculations. Default is 1.

   deflate
       Apply deflate effect to the video.

       This filter replaces the pixel by the local(3x3) average by taking into account only
       values lower than the pixel.

       It accepts the following options:

       threshold0
       threshold1
       threshold2
       threshold3
           Limit the maximum change for each plane, default is 65535.  If 0, plane will remain
           unchanged.

   deflicker
       Remove temporal frame luminance variations.

       It accepts the following options:

       size, s
           Set moving-average filter size in frames. Default is 5. Allowed range is 2 - 129.

       mode, m
           Set averaging mode to smooth temporal luminance variations.

           Available values are:

           am  Arithmetic mean

           gm  Geometric mean

           hm  Harmonic mean

           qm  Quadratic mean

           cm  Cubic mean

           pm  Power mean

           median
               Median

       bypass
           Do not actually modify frame. Useful when one only wants metadata.

   dejudder
       Remove judder produced by partially interlaced telecined content.

       Judder can be introduced, for instance, by pullup filter. If the original source was
       partially telecined content then the output of "pullup,dejudder" will have a variable
       frame rate. May change the recorded frame rate of the container. Aside from that change,
       this filter will not affect constant frame rate video.

       The option available in this filter is:

       cycle
           Specify the length of the window over which the judder repeats.

           Accepts any integer greater than 1. Useful values are:

           4   If the original was telecined from 24 to 30 fps (Film to NTSC).

           5   If the original was telecined from 25 to 30 fps (PAL to NTSC).

           20  If a mixture of the two.

           The default is 4.

   delogo
       Suppress a TV station logo by a simple interpolation of the surrounding pixels. Just set a
       rectangle covering the logo and watch it disappear (and sometimes something even uglier
       appear - your mileage may vary).

       It accepts the following parameters:

       x
       y   Specify the top left corner coordinates of the logo. They must be specified.

       w
       h   Specify the width and height of the logo to clear. They must be specified.

       band, t
           Specify the thickness of the fuzzy edge of the rectangle (added to w and h). The
           default value is 1. This option is deprecated, setting higher values should no longer
           be necessary and is not recommended.

       show
           When set to 1, a green rectangle is drawn on the screen to simplify finding the right
           x, y, w, and h parameters.  The default value is 0.

           The rectangle is drawn on the outermost pixels which will be (partly) replaced with
           interpolated values. The values of the next pixels immediately outside this rectangle
           in each direction will be used to compute the interpolated pixel values inside the
           rectangle.

       Examples

       •   Set a rectangle covering the area with top left corner coordinates 0,0 and size
           100x77, and a band of size 10:

                   delogo=x=0:y=0:w=100:h=77:band=10

   deshake
       Attempt to fix small changes in horizontal and/or vertical shift. This filter helps remove
       camera shake from hand-holding a camera, bumping a tripod, moving on a vehicle, etc.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       x
       y
       w
       h   Specify a rectangular area where to limit the search for motion vectors.  If desired
           the search for motion vectors can be limited to a rectangular area of the frame
           defined by its top left corner, width and height. These parameters have the same
           meaning as the drawbox filter which can be used to visualise the position of the
           bounding box.

           This is useful when simultaneous movement of subjects within the frame might be
           confused for camera motion by the motion vector search.

           If any or all of x, y, w and h are set to -1 then the full frame is used. This allows
           later options to be set without specifying the bounding box for the motion vector
           search.

           Default - search the whole frame.

       rx
       ry  Specify the maximum extent of movement in x and y directions in the range 0-64 pixels.
           Default 16.

       edge
           Specify how to generate pixels to fill blanks at the edge of the frame. Available
           values are:

           blank, 0
               Fill zeroes at blank locations

           original, 1
               Original image at blank locations

           clamp, 2
               Extruded edge value at blank locations

           mirror, 3
               Mirrored edge at blank locations

           Default value is mirror.

       blocksize
           Specify the blocksize to use for motion search. Range 4-128 pixels, default 8.

       contrast
           Specify the contrast threshold for blocks. Only blocks with more than the specified
           contrast (difference between darkest and lightest pixels) will be considered. Range

       Remove unwanted contamination of foreground colors, caused by reflected color of
       greenscreen or bluescreen.

       This filter accepts the following options:

       type
           Set what type of despill to use.

       mix Set how spillmap will be generated.

       expand

       alpha
           Modify alpha from generated spillmap.

   detelecine
       Apply an exact inverse of the telecine operation. It requires a predefined pattern
       specified using the pattern option which must be the same as that passed to the telecine
       filter.

       This filter accepts the following options:

       first_field
           top, t
               top field first

           bottom, b
               bottom field first The default value is "top".

           pattern. This is to be used if the stream is cut. The default value is 0.

   dilation
       Apply dilation effect to the video.

       This filter replaces the pixel by the local(3x3) maximum.

       It accepts the following options:

       threshold0
       threshold1
       threshold2
       threshold3

           unchanged.

       coordinates
           Flag which specifies the pixel to refer to. Default is 255 i.e. all eight pixels are
           used.

           Flags to local 3x3 coordinates maps like this:

               1 2 3
               4   5
               6 7 8

   displace
       Displace pixels as indicated by second and third input stream.

       It takes three input streams and outputs one stream, the first input is the source, and
       second and third input are displacement maps.

       The second input specifies how much to displace pixels along the x-axis, while the third
       input specifies how much to displace pixels along the y-axis.  If one of displacement map
       streams terminates, last frame from that displacement map will be used.

       Note that once generated, displacements maps can be reused over and over again.

       A description of the accepted options follows.

       edge
           Set displace behavior for pixels that are out of range.

           Available values are:

           blank
               Missing pixels are replaced by black pixels.

           smear
               Adjacent pixels will spread out to replace missing pixels.

           wrap
               Out of range pixels are wrapped so they point to pixels of other side.

           mirror
               Out of range pixels will be replaced with mirrored pixels.

           Default is smear.

   drawbox
       Draw a colored box on the input image.

       It accepts the following parameters:

       x
       y   The expressions which specify the top left corner coordinates of the box. It defaults
           to 0.

       width, w
       height, h

           interpreted as the input width and height. It defaults to 0.

       color, c
           Specify the color of the box to write. For the general syntax of this option, check
           the "Color" section in the ffmpeg-utils manual. If the special value "invert" is used,
           the box edge color is the same as the video with inverted luma.

       thickness, t
           The expression which sets the thickness of the box edge. Default value is 3.

           See below for the list of accepted constants.

       dar The input display aspect ratio, it is the same as (w / h) * sar.

       hsub
       vsub
           horizontal and vertical chroma subsample values. For example for the pixel format
           "yuv422p" hsub is 2 and vsub is 1.

       w
       h   The width and height of the drawn box.

       t   The thickness of the drawn box.

           These constants allow the x, y, w, h and t expressions to refer to each other, so you
           may for example specify "y=x/dar" or "h=w/dar".

       Examples

       •   Draw a black box around the edge of the input image:

                   drawbox

       •   Draw a box with color red and an opacity of 50%:

                   drawbox=10:20:200:60:red@0.5

           The previous example can be specified as:

                   drawbox=x=10:y=20:w=200:h=60:color=red@0.5

       •   Fill the box with pink color:

       It accepts the following parameters:

       x
       y   The expressions which specify the coordinates of some point of grid intersection
           (meant to configure offset). Both default to 0.

       width, w
       height, h
           The expressions which specify the width and height of the grid cell, if 0 they are
           interpreted as the input width and height, respectively, minus "thickness", so image
           gets framed. Default to 0.

       color, c
           Specify the color of the grid. For the general syntax of this option, check the
           "Color" section in the ffmpeg-utils manual. If the special value "invert" is used, the
           grid color is the same as the video with inverted luma.

       thickness, t
           The expression which sets the thickness of the grid line. Default value is 1.

           See below for the list of accepted constants.

       The parameters for x, y, w and h and t are expressions containing the following constants:

       dar The input display aspect ratio, it is the same as (w / h) * sar.

       hsub
       vsub
           horizontal and vertical chroma subsample values. For example for the pixel format
           "yuv422p" hsub is 2 and vsub is 1.

       in_w, iw
           The input grid cell width and height.

       sar The input sample aspect ratio.

       x
       y   The x and y coordinates of some point of grid intersection (meant to configure
           offset).

       w
       h   The width and height of the drawn cell.

       t   The thickness of the drawn cell.

           These constants allow the x, y, w, h and t expressions to refer to each other, so you
           may for example specify "y=x/dar" or "h=w/dar".

       Examples

       •   Draw a grid with cell 100x100 pixels, thickness 2 pixels, with color red and an
           opacity of 50%:

           is 0 (disabled).

       text
           The text string to be drawn. The text must be a sequence of UTF-8 encoded characters.
           This parameter is mandatory if no file is specified with the parameter textfile.

       textfile

       dar input display aspect ratio, it is the same as (w / h) * sar

       hsub
       vsub
           horizontal and vertical chroma subsample values. For example for the pixel format
           "yuv422p" hsub is 2 and vsub is 1.

       line_h, lh
           the height of each text line

       main_h, h, H
           the input height

       main_w, w, W
           the input width

       max_glyph_a, ascent
           the maximum distance from the baseline to the highest/upper grid coordinate used to
           place a glyph outline point, for all the rendered glyphs.  It is a positive value, due
           to the grid's orientation with the Y axis upwards.

       max_glyph_d, descent
           the maximum distance from the baseline to the lowest grid coordinate used to place a
           glyph outline point, for all the rendered glyphs.  This is a negative value, due to
           the grid's orientation, with the Y axis upwards.

       max_glyph_h
           maximum glyph height, that is the maximum height for all the glyphs contained in the
           rendered text, it is equivalent to ascent - descent.

       max_glyph_w
           maximum glyph width, that is the maximum width for all the glyphs contained in the
           rendered text

       n   the number of input frame, starting from 0

       rand(min, max)
           return a random number included between min and max

       sar The input sample aspect ratio.

       t   timestamp expressed in seconds, NAN if the input timestamp is unknown

       text_h, th
           the height of the rendered text

       text_w, tw
           the width of the rendered text

       x
       y   the x and y offset coordinates where the text is drawn.

           These parameters allow the x and y expressions to refer each other, so you can for
           example specify "y=x/dar".

       Text expansion

       If expansion is set to "strftime", the filter recognizes strftime() sequences in the
       provided text and expands them accordingly. Check the documentation of strftime(). This
       feature is deprecated.

       If expansion is set to "none", the text is printed verbatim.

       If expansion is set to "normal" (which is the default), the following expansion mechanism
       is used.

       The backslash character \, followed by any character, always expands to the second
       character.

       Sequences of the form "%{...}" are expanded. The text between the braces is a function
       name, possibly followed by arguments separated by ':'.  If the arguments contain special
       characters or delimiters (':' or '}'), they should be escaped.

       Note that they probably must also be escaped as the value for the text option in the
       filter argument string and as the filter argument in the filtergraph description, and
       possibly also for the shell, that makes up to four levels of escaping; using a text file
       avoids these problems.

       The following functions are available:

       expr, e
           The expression evaluation result.

           It must take one argument specifying the expression to be evaluated, which accepts the
           same constants and functions as the x and y values. Note that not all constants should
           be used, for example the text size is not known when evaluating the expression, so the
           constants text_w and text_h will have an undefined value.

       expr_int_format, eif
           Evaluate the expression's value and output as formatted integer.

           The first argument is the expression to be evaluated, just as for the expr function.
           The second argument specifies the output format. Allowed values are x, X, d and u.
           They are treated exactly as in the "printf" function.  The third parameter is optional
           and sets the number of positions taken by the output.  It can be used to add padding
           with zeros from the left.

       gmtime
           The time at which the filter is running, expressed in UTC.  It can accept an argument:
           a strftime() format string.

       localtime
           The time at which the filter is running, expressed in the local time zone.  It can
           accept an argument: a strftime() format string.

       metadata
           Frame metadata. Takes one or two arguments.

           The first argument is mandatory and specifies the metadata key.

           The second argument is optional and specifies a default value, used when the metadata
           key is not found or empty.

       n, frame_num
           The frame number, starting from 0.

       pict_type
           A 1 character description of the current picture type.

       pts The timestamp of the current frame.  It can take up to three arguments.

           The first argument is the format of the timestamp; it defaults to "flt" for seconds as
           a decimal number with microsecond accuracy; "hms" stands for a formatted
           [-]HH:MM:SS.mmm timestamp with millisecond accuracy.  "gmtime" stands for the
           timestamp of the frame formatted as UTC time; "localtime" stands for the timestamp of
           the frame formatted as local time zone time.

           The second argument is an offset added to the timestamp.

           If the format is set to "localtime" or "gmtime", a third argument may be supplied: a
           strftime() format string.  By default, YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS format will be used.

       Examples

       •   Draw "Test Text" with font FreeSerif, using the default values for the optional
           parameters.

                   drawtext="fontfile=/usr/share/fonts/truetype/freefont/FreeSerif.ttf: text='Test Text'"

       •   Draw 'Test Text' with font FreeSerif of size 24 at position x=100 and y=50 (counting
           from the top-left corner of the screen), text is yellow with a red box around it. Both
           the text and the box have an opacity of 20%.

                   drawtext="fontfile=/usr/share/fonts/truetype/freefont/FreeSerif.ttf: text='Test Text':\
                             x=100: y=50: fontsize=24: fontcolor=yellow@0.2: box=1: boxcolor=red@0.2"

           Note that the double quotes are not necessary if spaces are not used within the
           parameter list.

       •   Show the text at the center of the video frame:

                   drawtext="fontsize=30:fontfile=FreeSerif.ttf:text='hello world':x=(w-text_w)/2:y=(h-text_h)/2"

       •   Show the text at a random position, switching to a new position every 30 seconds:

                   drawtext="fontsize=30:fontfile=FreeSerif.ttf:text='hello world':x=if(eq(mod(t\,30)\,0)\,rand(0\,(w-text_w))\,x):y=if(eq(mod(t\,30)\,0)\,rand(0\,(h-text_h))\,y)"

       •   Show a text line sliding from right to left in the last row of the video frame. The
           file LONG_LINE is assumed to contain a single line with no newlines.

                   drawtext="fontsize=15:fontfile=FreeSerif.ttf:text=LONG_LINE:y=h-line_h:x=-50*t"

       •   Show the content of file CREDITS off the bottom of the frame and scroll up.

                   drawtext="fontsize=20:fontfile=FreeSerif.ttf:textfile=CREDITS:y=h-20*t"

       •   Draw a single green letter "g", at the center of the input video.  The glyph baseline
           is placed at half screen height.

                   drawtext="fontsize=60:fontfile=FreeSerif.ttf:fontcolor=green:text=g:x=(w-max_glyph_w)/2:y=h/2-ascent"

       •   Show text for 1 second every 3 seconds:

                   drawtext="fontfile=FreeSerif.ttf:fontcolor=white:x=100:y=x/dar:enable=lt(mod(t\,3)\,1):text='blink'"

       •   Use fontconfig to set the font. Note that the colons need to be escaped.

                   drawtext='fontfile=Linux Libertine O-40\:style=Semibold:text=FFmpeg'

       •   Print the date of a real-time encoding (see strftime(3)):

                   drawtext='fontfile=FreeSans.ttf:text=%{localtime\:%a %b %d %Y}'

       •   Show text fading in and out (appearing/disappearing):

                   #!/bin/sh
                   DS=1.0 # display start
                   DE=10.0 # display end
                   FID=1.5 # fade in duration
                   FOD=5 # fade out duration
                   ffplay -f lavfi "color,drawtext=text=TEST:fontsize=50:fontfile=FreeSerif.ttf:fontcolor_expr=ff0000%{eif\\\\: clip(255*(1*between(t\\, $DS + $FID\\, $DE - $FOD) + ((t - $DS)/$FID)*between(t\\, $DS\\, $DS + $FID) + (-(t - $DE)/$FOD)*between(t\\, $DE - $FOD\\, $DE) )\\, 0\\, 255) \\\\: x\\\\: 2 }"

       •   Horizontally align multiple separate texts. Note that max_glyph_a and the fontsize
           value are included in the y offset.

                   drawtext=fontfile=FreeSans.ttf:text=DOG:fontsize=24:x=10:y=20+24-max_glyph_a,

   edgedetect
       Detect and draw edges. The filter uses the Canny Edge Detection algorithm.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       low
       high
           Set low and high threshold values used by the Canny thresholding algorithm.

           The high threshold selects the "strong" edge pixels, which are then connected through
           8-connectivity with the "weak" edge pixels selected by the low threshold.

           low and high threshold values must be chosen in the range [0,1], and low should be
           lesser or equal to high.

           Default value for low is "20/255", and default value for high is "50/255".

       mode
           Define the drawing mode.

           wires
               Draw white/gray wires on black background.

           colormix
               Mix the colors to create a paint/cartoon effect.

           Default value is wires.

       Examples

       •   Standard edge detection with custom values for the hysteresis thresholding:

                   edgedetect=low=0.1:high=0.4

       •   Painting effect without thresholding:

                   edgedetect=mode=colormix:high=0

   eq
       Set brightness, contrast, saturation and approximate gamma adjustment.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       contrast
           Set the contrast expression. The value must be a float value in range "-2.0" to 2.0.
           The default value is "1".

       brightness
           Set the brightness expression. The value must be a float value in range "-1.0" to 1.0.
           The default value is "0".

       saturation
           Set the saturation expression. The value must be a float in range 0.0 to 3.0. The
           default value is "1".

       gamma
           Set the gamma expression. The value must be a float in range 0.1 to 10.0.  The default
           value is "1".

       gamma_r
           Set the gamma expression for red. The value must be a float in range 0.1 to 10.0. The
           default value is "1".

       gamma_g
           Set the gamma expression for green. The value must be a float in range 0.1 to 10.0.
           The default value is "1".

       gamma_b
           Set the gamma expression for blue. The value must be a float in range 0.1 to 10.0. The
           default value is "1".

       gamma_weight
           Set the gamma weight expression. It can be used to reduce the effect of a high gamma
           value on bright image areas, e.g. keep them from getting overamplified and just plain
           white. The value must be a float in range 0.0 to 1.0. A value of 0.0 turns the gamma
           correction all the way down while 1.0 leaves it at its full strength. Default is "1".

       eval
           Set when the expressions for brightness, contrast, saturation and gamma expressions
           are evaluated.

           It accepts the following values:

           init
               only evaluate expressions once during the filter initialization or when a command
               is processed

           frame
               evaluate expressions for each incoming frame

           Default value is init.

       The expressions accept the following parameters:

       n   frame count of the input frame starting from 0

       pos byte position of the corresponding packet in the input file, NAN if unspecified

       r   frame rate of the input video, NAN if the input frame rate is unknown

       t   timestamp expressed in seconds, NAN if the input timestamp is unknown

       The filter supports the following commands:

       contrast
           Set the contrast expression.

       brightness
           Set the brightness expression.

       saturation
           Set the saturation expression.

       gamma_g
           Set gamma_g expression.

       gamma_b
           Set gamma_b expression.

       gamma_weight
           Set gamma_weight expression.

           The command accepts the same syntax of the corresponding option.

           If the specified expression is not valid, it is kept at its current value.

   erosion
       Apply erosion effect to the video.

       This filter replaces the pixel by the local(3x3) minimum.

       It accepts the following options:

       threshold0
       threshold1
       threshold2
       threshold3
           Limit the maximum change for each plane, default is 65535.  If 0, plane will remain
           unchanged.

       coordinates
           Flag which specifies the pixel to refer to. Default is 255 i.e. all eight pixels are
           used.

           Flags to local 3x3 coordinates maps like this:

               1 2 3
               4   5
               6 7 8

   extractplanes
       Extract color channel components from input video stream into separate grayscale video
       streams.

       The filter accepts the following option:

       planes
           Set plane(s) to extract.

           Available values for planes are:

           y
           u
           v
           a
           r
           g
           b

           Choosing planes not available in the input will result in an error.  That means you
           cannot select "r", "g", "b" planes with "y", "u", "v" planes at same time.

       Examples

       •   Extract luma, u and v color channel component from input video frame into 3 grayscale
           outputs:

                   ffmpeg -i video.avi -filter_complex 'extractplanes=y+u+v[y][u][v]' -map '[y]' y.avi -map '[u]' u.avi -map '[v]' v.avi

   elbg
       Apply a posterize effect using the ELBG (Enhanced LBG) algorithm.

       For each input image, the filter will compute the optimal mapping from the input to the
       output given the codebook length, that is the number of distinct output colors.

       This filter accepts the following options.

       codebook_length, l
           Set codebook length. The value must be a positive integer, and represents the number
           of distinct output colors. Default value is 256.

       nb_steps, n
           Set the maximum number of iterations to apply for computing the optimal mapping. The
           higher the value the better the result and the higher the computation time. Default
           value is 1.

       seed, s
           Set a random seed, must be an integer included between 0 and UINT32_MAX. If not
           specified, or if explicitly set to -1, the filter will try to use a good random seed
           on a best effort basis.

       pal8
           Set pal8 output pixel format. This option does not work with codebook length greater
           than 256.

   fade
       Apply a fade-in/out effect to the input video.

       It accepts the following parameters:

       type, t
           The effect type can be either "in" for a fade-in, or "out" for a fade-out effect.
           Default is "in".

       start_frame, s
           Specify the number of the frame to start applying the fade effect at. Default is 0.

       nb_frames, n
           The number of frames that the fade effect lasts. At the end of the fade-in effect, the
           output video will have the same intensity as the input video.  At the end of the fade-
           out transition, the output video will be filled with the selected color.  Default is
           25.

       alpha
           If set to 1, fade only alpha channel, if one exists on the input.  Default value is 0.

       start_time, st
           Specify the timestamp (in seconds) of the frame to start to apply the fade effect. If
           both start_frame and start_time are specified, the fade will start at whichever comes
           last.  Default is 0.

       duration, d
           The number of seconds for which the fade effect has to last. At the end of the fade-in
           effect the output video will have the same intensity as the input video, at the end of
           the fade-out transition the output video will be filled with the selected color.  If
           both duration and nb_frames are specified, duration is used. Default is 0 (nb_frames
           is used by default).

       color, c
           Specify the color of the fade. Default is "black".

       Examples

       •   Fade in the first 30 frames of video:

                   fade=in:0:30

           The command above is equivalent to:

                   fade=t=in:s=0:n=30

       •   Fade out the last 45 frames of a 200-frame video:

                   fade=out:155:45
                   fade=type=out:start_frame=155:nb_frames=45

       •   Fade in the first 25 frames and fade out the last 25 frames of a 1000-frame video:

                   fade=in:0:25, fade=out:975:25

       •   Make the first 5 frames yellow, then fade in from frame 5-24:

                   fade=in:5:20:color=yellow

       •   Fade in alpha over first 25 frames of video:

                   fade=in:0:25:alpha=1

       •   Make the first 5.5 seconds black, then fade in for 0.5 seconds:

                   fade=t=in:st=5.5:d=0.5

   fftfilt

           Adjust the dc value (gain) of the luma plane of the image. The filter accepts an
           integer value in range 0 to 1000. The default value is set to 0.

       dc_U
           Adjust the dc value (gain) of the 1st chroma plane of the image. The filter accepts an
           integer value in range 0 to 1000. The default value is set to 0.

       W
       H   The width and height of the image.

       N   The number of input frame, starting from 0.

       Examples

                   fftfilt=dc_Y=128:weight_Y='squish(1-(Y+X)/100)'

       •   Low-pass:

                   fftfilt=dc_Y=0:weight_Y='squish((Y+X)/100-1)'

       •   Sharpen:

                   fftfilt=dc_Y=0:weight_Y='1+squish(1-(Y+X)/100)'

       •   Blur:

                   fftfilt=dc_Y=0:weight_Y='exp(-4 * ((Y+X)/(W+H)))'

   field
       Extract a single field from an interlaced image using stride arithmetic to avoid wasting
       CPU time. The output frames are marked as non-interlaced.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       type
           Specify whether to extract the top (if the value is 0 or "top") or the bottom field
           (if the value is 1 or "bottom").

   fieldhint
       Create new frames by copying the top and bottom fields from surrounding frames supplied as
       numbers by the hint file.

       hint
           Set file containing hints: absolute/relative frame numbers.

           There must be one line for each frame in a clip. Each line must contain two numbers
           separated by the comma, optionally followed by "-" or "+".  Numbers supplied on each
           line of file can not be out of [N-1,N+1] where N is current frame number for
           "absolute" mode or out of [-1, 1] range for "relative" mode. First number tells from
           which frame to pick up top field and second number tells from which frame to pick up
           bottom field.

           If optionally followed by "+" output frame will be marked as interlaced, else if
           followed by "-" output frame will be marked as progressive, else it will be marked
           same as input frame.  If line starts with "#" or ";" that line is skipped.

       mode
           Can be item "absolute" or "relative". Default is "absolute".

       Example of first several lines of "hint" file for "relative" mode:

               0,0 - # first frame
               1,0 - # second frame, use third's frame top field and second's frame bottom field
               1,0 - # third frame, use fourth's frame top field and third's frame bottom field
               1,0 -
               0,0 -
               0,0 -
               1,0 -
               1,0 -
               1,0 -
               0,0 -
               0,0 -
               1,0 -
               1,0 -
               1,0 -
               0,0 -

   fieldmatch
       Field matching filter for inverse telecine. It is meant to reconstruct the progressive
       frames from a telecined stream. The filter does not drop duplicated frames, so to achieve
       a complete inverse telecine "fieldmatch" needs to be followed by a decimation filter such
       as decimate in the filtergraph.

       The separation of the field matching and the decimation is notably motivated by the
       possibility of inserting a de-interlacing filter fallback between the two.  If the source
       has mixed telecined and real interlaced content, "fieldmatch" will not be able to match
       fields for the interlaced parts.  But these remaining combed frames will be marked as
       interlaced, and thus can be de-interlaced by a later filter such as yadif before
       decimation.

       In addition to the various configuration options, "fieldmatch" can take an optional second
       stream, activated through the ppsrc option. If enabled, the frames reconstruction will be
       based on the fields and frames from this second stream. This allows the first input to be
       pre-processed in order to help the various algorithms of the filter, while keeping the
       output lossless (assuming the fields are matched properly). Typically, a field-aware
       denoiser, or brightness/contrast adjustments can help.

       Note that this filter uses the same algorithms as TIVTC/TFM (AviSynth project) and
       VIVTC/VFM (VapourSynth project). The later is a light clone of TFM from which "fieldmatch"
       is based on. While the semantic and usage are very close, some behaviour and options names
       can differ.

       The decimate filter currently only works for constant frame rate input.  If your input has
       mixed telecined (30fps) and progressive content with a lower framerate like 24fps use the
       following filterchain to produce the necessary cfr stream:
       "dejudder,fps=30000/1001,fieldmatch,decimate".

       The filter accepts the following options:

       order
           Specify the assumed field order of the input stream. Available values are:

           auto
               Auto detect parity (use FFmpeg's internal parity value).

           bff Assume bottom field first.

           tff Assume top field first.

           Note that it is sometimes recommended not to trust the parity announced by the stream.

           Default value is auto.

       mode
           Set the matching mode or strategy to use. pc mode is the safest in the sense that it
           won't risk creating jerkiness due to duplicate frames when possible, but if there are
           bad edits or blended fields it will end up outputting combed frames when a good match
           might actually exist. On the other hand, pcn_ub mode is the most risky in terms of
           creating jerkiness, but will almost always find a good frame if there is one. The
           other values are all somewhere in between pc and pcn_ub in terms of risking jerkiness
           and creating duplicate frames versus finding good matches in sections with bad edits,
           orphaned fields, blended fields, etc.

           More details about p/c/n/u/b are available in p/c/n/u/b meaning section.

           Available values are:

           pc  2-way matching (p/c)

           pc_n
               2-way matching, and trying 3rd match if still combed (p/c + n)

           pc_u
               2-way matching, and trying 3rd match (same order) if still combed (p/c + u)

           pc_n_ub
               2-way matching, trying 3rd match if still combed, and trying 4th/5th matches if
               still combed (p/c + n + u/b)

           pcn 3-way matching (p/c/n)

           pcn_ub
               3-way matching, and trying 4th/5th matches if all 3 of the original matches are
               detected as combed (p/c/n + u/b)

           The parenthesis at the end indicate the matches that would be used for that mode
           assuming order=tff (and field on auto or top).

           In terms of speed pc mode is by far the fastest and pcn_ub is the slowest.

           Default value is pc_n.

       ppsrc
           Mark the main input stream as a pre-processed input, and enable the secondary input
           stream as the clean source to pick the fields from. See the filter introduction for
           more details. It is similar to the clip2 feature from VFM/TFM.

           Default value is 0 (disabled).

       field
           Set the field to match from. It is recommended to set this to the same value as order
           unless you experience matching failures with that setting. In certain circumstances
           changing the field that is used to match from can have a large impact on matching
           performance. Available values are:

           auto
               Automatic (same value as order).

           bottom
               Match from the bottom field.

           top Match from the top field.

           Default value is auto.

       mchroma
           Set whether or not chroma is included during the match comparisons. In most cases it
           is recommended to leave this enabled. You should set this to 0 only if your clip has
           bad chroma problems such as heavy rainbowing or other artifacts. Setting this to 0
           could also be used to speed things up at the cost of some accuracy.

           Default value is 1.

       y0
       y1  These define an exclusion band which excludes the lines between y0 and y1 from being
           included in the field matching decision. An exclusion band can be used to ignore
           subtitles, a logo, or other things that may interfere with the matching. y0 sets the
           starting scan line and y1 sets the ending line; all lines in between y0 and y1
           (including y0 and y1) will be ignored. Setting y0 and y1 to the same value will
           disable the feature.  y0 and y1 defaults to 0.

       scthresh
           Set the scene change detection threshold as a percentage of maximum change on the luma
           plane. Good values are in the "[8.0, 14.0]" range. Scene change detection is only
           relevant in case combmatch=sc.  The range for scthresh is "[0.0, 100.0]".

           Default value is 12.0.

       combmatch
           When combatch is not none, "fieldmatch" will take into account the combed scores of
           matches when deciding what match to use as the final match. Available values are:

           none
               No final matching based on combed scores.

           sc  Combed scores are only used when a scene change is detected.

           full
               Use combed scores all the time.

           Default is sc.

       combdbg
           Force "fieldmatch" to calculate the combed metrics for certain matches and print them.
           This setting is known as micout in TFM/VFM vocabulary.  Available values are:

           none
               No forced calculation.

           pcn Force p/c/n calculations.

           pcnub
               Force p/c/n/u/b calculations.

           Default value is none.

       cthresh
           This is the area combing threshold used for combed frame detection. This essentially
           controls how "strong" or "visible" combing must be to be detected.  Larger values mean
           combing must be more visible and smaller values mean combing can be less visible or
           strong and still be detected. Valid settings are from "-1" (every pixel will be
           detected as combed) to 255 (no pixel will be detected as combed). This is basically a
           pixel difference value. A good range is "[8, 12]".

           Default value is 9.

       chroma
           Sets whether or not chroma is considered in the combed frame decision.  Only disable
           this if your source has chroma problems (rainbowing, etc.) that are causing problems
           for the combed frame detection with chroma enabled. Actually, using chroma=0 is
           usually more reliable, except for the case where there is chroma only combing in the
           source.

           Default value is 0.

       blockx
       blocky
           Respectively set the x-axis and y-axis size of the window used during combed frame
           detection. This has to do with the size of the area in which combpel pixels are
           required to be detected as combed for a frame to be declared combed. See the combpel
           parameter description for more info.  Possible values are any number that is a power
           of 2 starting at 4 and going up to 512.

           Default value is 16.

       combpel
           The number of combed pixels inside any of the blocky by blockx size blocks on the
           frame for the frame to be detected as combed. While cthresh controls how "visible" the
           combing must be, this setting controls "how much" combing there must be in any
           localized area (a window defined by the blockx and blocky settings) on the frame.
           Minimum value is 0 and maximum is "blocky x blockx" (at which point no frames will
           ever be detected as combed). This setting is known as MI in TFM/VFM vocabulary.

           Default value is 80.

       p/c/n/u/b meaning

       p/c/n

       We assume the following telecined stream:

               Top fields:     1 2 2 3 4
               Bottom fields:  1 2 3 4 4

       The numbers correspond to the progressive frame the fields relate to. Here, the first two
       frames are progressive, the 3rd and 4th are combed, and so on.

       When "fieldmatch" is configured to run a matching from bottom (field=bottom) this is how
       this input stream get transformed:

               Input stream:
                               T     1 2 2 3 4
                               B     1 2 3 4 4   <-- matching reference

               Matches:              c c n n c

               Output stream:
                               T     1 2 3 4 4
                               B     1 2 3 4 4

       As a result of the field matching, we can see that some frames get duplicated.  To perform
       a complete inverse telecine, you need to rely on a decimation filter after this operation.
       See for instance the decimate filter.

       The same operation now matching from top fields (field=top) looks like this:

               Input stream:
                               T     1 2 2 3 4   <-- matching reference
                               B     1 2 3 4 4

               Matches:              c c p p c

               Output stream:
                               T     1 2 2 3 4
                               B     1 2 2 3 4

       In these examples, we can see what p, c and n mean; basically, they refer to the frame and
       field of the opposite parity:

       *<p matches the field of the opposite parity in the previous frame>
       *<c matches the field of the opposite parity in the current frame>
       *<n matches the field of the opposite parity in the next frame>

       u/b

       The u and b matching are a bit special in the sense that they match from the opposite
       parity flag. In the following examples, we assume that we are currently matching the 2nd
       frame (Top:2, bottom:2). According to the match, a 'x' is placed above and below each
       matched fields.

       With bottom matching (field=bottom):

               Match:           c         p           n          b          u

                                x       x               x        x          x
                 Top          1 2 2     1 2 2       1 2 2      1 2 2      1 2 2
                 Bottom       1 2 3     1 2 3       1 2 3      1 2 3      1 2 3
                                x         x           x        x              x

               Output frames:
                                2          1          2          2          2
                                2          2          2          1          3

       With top matching (field=top):

               Match:           c         p           n          b          u

                                x         x           x        x              x
                 Top          1 2 2     1 2 2       1 2 2      1 2 2      1 2 2
                 Bottom       1 2 3     1 2 3       1 2 3      1 2 3      1 2 3
                                x       x               x        x          x

               Output frames:
                                2          2          2          1          2
                                2          1          3          2          2

       Examples

       Simple IVTC of a top field first telecined stream:

               fieldmatch=order=tff:combmatch=none, decimate

       Advanced IVTC, with fallback on yadif for still combed frames:

               fieldmatch=order=tff:combmatch=full, yadif=deint=interlaced, decimate

   fieldorder
       Transform the field order of the input video.

       It accepts the following parameters:

       order
           The output field order. Valid values are tff for top field first or bff for bottom
           field first.

       The default value is tff.

       The transformation is done 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.

       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.

       It is very useful when converting to or from PAL DV material, which is bottom field first.

       For example:

               ffmpeg -i in.vob -vf "fieldorder=bff" out.dv

   fifo, afifo
       Buffer input images and send them when they are requested.

       It is mainly useful when auto-inserted by the libavfilter framework.

       It does not take parameters.

   find_rect
       Find a rectangular object

       It accepts the following options:

       object
           Filepath of the object image, needs to be in gray8.

       threshold
           Detection threshold, default is 0.5.

       mipmaps
           Number of mipmaps, default is 3.

       xmin, ymin, xmax, ymax
           Specifies the rectangle in which to search.

       Examples

       •   Generate a representative palette of a given video using ffmpeg:

                   ffmpeg -i file.ts -vf find_rect=newref.pgm,cover_rect=cover.jpg:mode=cover new.mkv

   cover_rect
       Cover a rectangular object

       It accepts the following options:

       cover
           Filepath of the optional cover image, needs to be in yuv420.

       mode
           Set covering mode.

           It accepts the following values:

           cover
               cover it by the supplied image

           blur
               cover it by interpolating the surrounding pixels

           Default value is blur.

       Examples

       •   Generate a representative palette of a given video using ffmpeg:

                   ffmpeg -i file.ts -vf find_rect=newref.pgm,cover_rect=cover.jpg:mode=cover new.mkv

   floodfill
       Flood area with values of same pixel components with another values.

       It accepts the following options:

       x   Set pixel x coordinate.

       y   Set pixel y coordinate.

       s0  Set source #0 component value.

       s1  Set source #1 component value.

       s2  Set source #2 component value.

       s3  Set source #3 component value.

       d0  Set destination #0 component value.

       d1  Set destination #1 component value.

       d2  Set destination #2 component value.

       d3  Set destination #3 component value.

   format
       Convert the input video to one of the specified pixel formats.  Libavfilter will try to
       pick one that is suitable as input to the next filter.

       It accepts the following parameters:

       pix_fmts
           A '|'-separated list of pixel format names, such as "pix_fmts=yuv420p|monow|rgb24".

       Examples

       •   Convert the input video to the yuv420p format

                   format=pix_fmts=yuv420p

           Convert the input video to any of the formats in the list

                   format=pix_fmts=yuv420p|yuv444p|yuv410p

   fps
       Convert the video to specified constant frame rate by duplicating or dropping frames as
       necessary.

       It accepts the following parameters:

       fps The desired output frame rate. The default is 25.

       start_time
           Assume the first PTS should be the given value, in seconds. This allows for
           padding/trimming at the start of stream. By default, no assumption is made about the
           first frame's expected PTS, so no padding or trimming is done.  For example, this
           could be set to 0 to pad the beginning with duplicates of the first frame if a video
           stream starts after the audio stream or to trim any frames with a negative PTS.

       round
           Timestamp (PTS) rounding method.

           Possible values are:

           zero
               round towards 0

           inf round away from 0

           down
               round towards -infinity

           up  round towards +infinity

           near
               round to nearest

           The default is "near".

       eof_action
           Action performed when reading the last frame.

           Possible values are:

           round
               Use same timestamp rounding method as used for other frames.

           pass
               Pass through last frame if input duration has not been reached yet.

           The default is "round".

       Alternatively, the options can be specified as a flat string: fps[:start_time[:round]].

       See also the setpts filter.

       Examples

       •   A typical usage in order to set the fps to 25:

                   fps=fps=25

       •   Sets the fps to 24, using abbreviation and rounding method to round to nearest:

                   fps=fps=film:round=near

   framepack
       Pack two different video streams into a stereoscopic video, setting proper metadata on
       supported codecs. The two views should have the same size and framerate and processing
       will stop when the shorter video ends. Please note that you may conveniently adjust view
       properties with the scale and fps filters.

       It accepts the following parameters:

       format
           The desired packing format. Supported values are:

           sbs The views are next to each other (default).

           tab The views are on top of each other.

           lines
               The views are packed by line.

           columns
               The views are packed by column.

           frameseq
               The views are temporally interleaved.

       Some examples:

               # Convert left and right views into a frame-sequential video
               ffmpeg -i LEFT -i RIGHT -filter_complex framepack=frameseq OUTPUT

               # Convert views into a side-by-side video with the same output resolution as the input
               ffmpeg -i LEFT -i RIGHT -filter_complex [0:v]scale=w=iw/2[left],[1:v]scale=w=iw/2[right],[left][right]framepack=sbs OUTPUT

   framerate
       Change the frame rate by interpolating new video output frames from the source frames.

       This filter is not designed to function correctly with interlaced media. If you wish to
       change the frame rate of interlaced media then you are required to deinterlace before this
       filter and re-interlace after this filter.

       A description of the accepted options follows.

       fps Specify the output frames per second. This option can also be specified as a value
           alone. The default is 50.

       interp_start
           Specify the start of a range where the output frame will be created as a linear
           interpolation of two frames. The range is [0-255], the default is 15.

       interp_end
           Specify the end of a range where the output frame will be created as a linear
           interpolation of two frames. The range is [0-255], the default is 240.

       scene
           Specify the level at which a scene change is detected as a value between 0 and 100 to
           indicate a new scene; a low value reflects a low probability for the current frame to
           introduce a new scene, while a higher value means the current frame is more likely to
           be one.  The default is 7.

       flags
           Specify flags influencing the filter process.

           Available value for flags is:

           scene_change_detect, scd
               Enable scene change detection using the value of the option scene.  This flag is
               enabled by default.

   framestep
       Select one frame every N-th frame.

       This filter accepts the following option:

       step
           Select frame after every "step" frames.  Allowed values are positive integers higher
           than 0. Default value is 1.

   frei0r
       Apply a frei0r effect to the input video.

       To enable the compilation of this filter, you need to install the frei0r header and
       configure FFmpeg with "--enable-frei0r".

       It accepts the following parameters:

       filter_name
           The name of the frei0r effect to load. If the environment variable FREI0R_PATH is
           defined, the frei0r effect is searched for in each of the directories specified by the
           colon-separated list in FREI0R_PATH.  Otherwise, the standard frei0r paths are
           searched, in this order: HOME/.frei0r-1/lib/, /usr/local/lib/frei0r-1/,
           /usr/lib/frei0r-1/.

       filter_params
           A '|'-separated list of parameters to pass to the frei0r effect.

       A frei0r effect parameter can be a boolean (its value is either "y" or "n"), a double, a
       color (specified as R/G/B, where R, G, and B are floating point numbers between 0.0 and
       1.0, inclusive) or by a color description specified in the "Color" section in the ffmpeg-
       utils manual), a position (specified as X/Y, where X and Y are floating point numbers)
       and/or a string.

       The number and types of parameters depend on the loaded effect. If an effect parameter is
       not specified, the default value is set.

       Examples

       •   Apply the distort0r effect, setting the first two double parameters:

                   frei0r=filter_name=distort0r:filter_params=0.5|0.01

       •   Apply the colordistance effect, taking a color as the first parameter:

                   frei0r=colordistance:0.2/0.3/0.4
                   frei0r=colordistance:violet
                   frei0r=colordistance:0x112233

       •   Apply the perspective effect, specifying the top left and top right image positions:

                   frei0r=perspective:0.2/0.2|0.8/0.2

       For more information, see <http://frei0r.dyne.org>

   fspp
       Apply fast and simple postprocessing. It is a faster version of spp.

       It splits (I)DCT into horizontal/vertical passes. Unlike the simple post- processing
       filter, one of them is performed once per block, not per pixel.  This allows for much
       higher speed.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       quality
           Set quality. This option defines the number of levels for averaging. It accepts an
           integer in the range 4-5. Default value is 4.

       qp  Force a constant quantization parameter. It accepts an integer in range 0-63.  If not
           set, the filter will use the QP from the video stream (if available).

       strength
           Set filter strength. It accepts an integer in range -15 to 32. Lower values mean more
           details but also more artifacts, while higher values make the image smoother but also
           blurrier. Default value is 0 X PSNR optimal.

       use_bframe_qp
           Enable the use of the QP from the B-Frames if set to 1. Using this option may cause
           flicker since the B-Frames have often larger QP. Default is 0 (not enabled).

   gblur
       Apply Gaussian blur filter.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       sigma
           Set horizontal sigma, standard deviation of Gaussian blur. Default is 0.5.

       steps
           Set number of steps for Gaussian approximation. Defauls is 1.

       planes
           Set which planes to filter. By default all planes are filtered.

       sigmaV
           Set vertical sigma, if negative it will be same as "sigma".  Default is "-1".

   geq
       The filter accepts the following options:

       lum_expr, lum
           Set the luminance expression.

       cb_expr, cb
           Set the chrominance blue expression.

       cr_expr, cr
           Set the chrominance red expression.

       alpha_expr, a
           Set the alpha expression.

       red_expr, r
           Set the red expression.

       green_expr, g
           Set the green expression.

       blue_expr, b
           Set the blue expression.

       The colorspace is selected according to the specified options. If one of the lum_expr,
       cb_expr, or cr_expr options is specified, the filter will automatically select a YCbCr
       colorspace. If one of the red_expr, green_expr, or blue_expr options is specified, it will
       select an RGB colorspace.

       If one of the chrominance expression is not defined, it falls back on the other one. If no
       alpha expression is specified it will evaluate to opaque value.  If none of chrominance
       expressions are specified, they will evaluate to the luminance expression.

       The expressions can use the following variables and functions:

       N   The sequential number of the filtered frame, starting from 0.

       X
       Y   The coordinates of the current sample.

       W
       H   The width and height of the image.

       SW
       SH  Width and height scale depending on the currently filtered plane. It is the ratio
           between the corresponding luma plane number of pixels and the current plane ones. E.g.
           for YUV4:2:0 the values are "1,1" for the luma plane, and "0.5,0.5" for chroma planes.

       T   Time of the current frame, expressed in seconds.

       p(x, y)
           Return the value of the pixel at location (x,y) of the current plane.

       lum(x, y)
           Return the value of the pixel at location (x,y) of the luminance plane.

       cb(x, y)
           Return the value of the pixel at location (x,y) of the blue-difference chroma plane.
           Return 0 if there is no such plane.

       cr(x, y)
           Return the value of the pixel at location (x,y) of the red-difference chroma plane.
           Return 0 if there is no such plane.

       r(x, y)
       g(x, y)
       b(x, y)
           Return the value of the pixel at location (x,y) of the red/green/blue component.
           Return 0 if there is no such component.

       alpha(x, y)
           Return the value of the pixel at location (x,y) of the alpha plane. Return 0 if there
           is no such plane.

       For functions, if x and y are outside the area, the value will be automatically clipped to
       the closer edge.

       Examples

       •   Flip the image horizontally:

                   geq=p(W-X\,Y)

       •   Generate a bidimensional sine wave, with angle "PI/3" and a wavelength of 100 pixels:

                   geq=128 + 100*sin(2*(PI/100)*(cos(PI/3)*(X-50*T) + sin(PI/3)*Y)):128:128

       •   Generate a fancy enigmatic moving light:

                   nullsrc=s=256x256,geq=random(1)/hypot(X-cos(N*0.07)*W/2-W/2\,Y-sin(N*0.09)*H/2-H/2)^2*1000000*sin(N*0.02):128:128

       •   Generate a quick emboss effect:

                   format=gray,geq=lum_expr='(p(X,Y)+(256-p(X-4,Y-4)))/2'

       •   Modify RGB components depending on pixel position:

                   geq=r='X/W*r(X,Y)':g='(1-X/W)*g(X,Y)':b='(H-Y)/H*b(X,Y)'

       •   Create a radial gradient that is the same size as the input (also see the vignette
           filter):

                   geq=lum=255*gauss((X/W-0.5)*3)*gauss((Y/H-0.5)*3)/gauss(0)/gauss(0),format=gray

   gradfun
       Fix the banding artifacts that are sometimes introduced into nearly flat regions by
       truncation to 8-bit color depth.  Interpolate the gradients that should go where the bands
       are, and dither them.

       It 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.

       It accepts the following parameters:

       strength
           The maximum amount by which the filter will change any one pixel. This is also the
           threshold for detecting nearly flat regions. Acceptable values range from .51 to 64;
           the default value is 1.2. Out-of-range values will be clipped to the valid range.

       radius
           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; the default value is 16. Out-of-range values will be
           clipped to the valid range.

       Alternatively, the options can be specified as a flat string: strength[:radius]

       Examples

       •   Apply the filter with a 3.5 strength and radius of 8:

                   gradfun=3.5:8

       •   Specify radius, omitting the strength (which will fall-back to the default value):

                   gradfun=radius=8

   haldclut
       Apply a Hald CLUT to a video stream.

       First input is the video stream to process, and second one is the Hald CLUT.  The Hald
       CLUT input can be a simple picture or a complete video stream.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       shortest
           Force termination when the shortest input terminates. Default is 0.

       repeatlast
           Continue applying the last CLUT after the end of the stream. A value of 0 disable the
           filter after the last frame of the CLUT is reached.  Default is 1.

       "haldclut" also has the same interpolation options as lut3d (both filters share the same
       internals).

       More information about the Hald CLUT can be found on Eskil Steenberg's website (Hald CLUT
       author) at <http://www.quelsolaar.com/technology/clut.html>.

       Workflow examples

       Hald CLUT video stream

       Generate an identity Hald CLUT stream altered with various effects:

               ffmpeg -f lavfi -i B<haldclutsrc>=8 -vf "hue=H=2*PI*t:s=sin(2*PI*t)+1, curves=cross_process" -t 10 -c:v ffv1 clut.nut

       Note: make sure you use a lossless codec.

       Then use it with "haldclut" to apply it on some random stream:

               ffmpeg -f lavfi -i mandelbrot -i clut.nut -filter_complex '[0][1] haldclut' -t 20 mandelclut.mkv

       The Hald CLUT will be applied to the 10 first seconds (duration of clut.nut), then the
       latest picture of that CLUT stream will be applied to the remaining frames of the
       "mandelbrot" stream.

       Hald CLUT with preview

       A Hald CLUT is supposed to be a squared image of "Level*Level*Level" by
       "Level*Level*Level" pixels. For a given Hald CLUT, FFmpeg will select the biggest possible
       square starting at the top left of the picture. The remaining padding pixels (bottom or
       right) will be ignored. This area can be used to add a preview of the Hald CLUT.

       Typically, the following generated Hald CLUT will be supported by the "haldclut" filter:

               ffmpeg -f lavfi -i B<haldclutsrc>=8 -vf "
                  pad=iw+320 [padded_clut];
                  smptebars=s=320x256, split [a][b];
                  [padded_clut][a] overlay=W-320:h, curves=color_negative [main];
                  [main][b] overlay=W-320" -frames:v 1 clut.png

       It contains the original and a preview of the effect of the CLUT: SMPTE color bars are
       displayed on the right-top, and below the same color bars processed by the color changes.

       Then, the effect of this Hald CLUT can be visualized with:

               ffplay input.mkv -vf "movie=clut.png, [in] haldclut"

   hflip
       Flip the input video horizontally.

       For example, to horizontally flip the input video with ffmpeg:

               ffmpeg -i in.avi -vf "hflip" out.avi

   histeq
       This filter applies a global color histogram equalization on a per-frame basis.

       It can be used to correct video that has a compressed range of pixel intensities.  The
       filter redistributes the pixel intensities to equalize their distribution across the
       intensity range. It may be viewed as an "automatically adjusting contrast filter". This
       filter is useful only for correcting degraded or poorly captured source video.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       strength
           Determine the amount of equalization to be applied.  As the strength is reduced, the
           distribution of pixel intensities more-and-more approaches that of the input frame.
           The value must be a float number in the range [0,1] and defaults to 0.200.

       intensity
           Set the maximum intensity that can generated and scale the output values
           appropriately.  The strength should be set as desired and then the intensity can be
           limited if needed to avoid washing-out. The value must be a float number in the range
           [0,1] and defaults to 0.210.

       antibanding
           Set the antibanding level. If enabled the filter will randomly vary the luminance of
           output pixels by a small amount to avoid banding of the histogram. Possible values are
           "none", "weak" or "strong". It defaults to "none".

   histogram
       Compute and draw a color distribution histogram for the input video.

       The computed histogram is a representation of the color component distribution in an
       image.

       Standard histogram displays the color components distribution in an image.  Displays color
       graph for each color component. Shows distribution of the Y, U, V, A or R, G, B
       components, depending on input format, in the current frame. Below each graph a color
       component scale meter is shown.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       level_height
           Set height of level. Default value is 200.  Allowed range is [50, 2048].

       scale_height
           Set height of color scale. Default value is 12.  Allowed range is [0, 40].

       display_mode
           Set display mode.  It accepts the following values:

           stack
               Per color component graphs are placed below each other.

           parade
               Per color component graphs are placed side by side.

           overlay
               Presents information identical to that in the "parade", except that the graphs
               representing color components are superimposed directly over one another.

           Default is "stack".

       levels_mode
           Set mode. Can be either "linear", or "logarithmic".  Default is "linear".

       components
           Set what color components to display.  Default is 7.

       fgopacity
           Set foreground opacity. Default is 0.7.

       bgopacity
           Set background opacity. Default is 0.5.

       Examples

       •   Calculate and draw histogram:

                   ffplay -i input -vf histogram

   hqdn3d
       This is a high precision/quality 3d denoise filter. It aims to reduce image noise,
       producing smooth images and making still images really still. It should enhance
       compressibility.

       It accepts the following optional parameters:

       luma_spatial
           A non-negative floating point number which specifies spatial luma strength.  It
           defaults to 4.0.

       chroma_spatial
           A non-negative floating point number which specifies spatial chroma strength.  It
           defaults to 3.0*luma_spatial/4.0.

       luma_tmp
           A floating point number which specifies luma temporal strength. It defaults to
           6.0*luma_spatial/4.0.

       chroma_tmp
           A floating point number which specifies chroma temporal strength. It defaults to
           luma_tmp*chroma_spatial/luma_spatial.

   hwdownload
       Download hardware frames to system memory.

       The input must be in hardware frames, and the output a non-hardware format.  Not all
       formats will be supported on the output - it may be necessary to insert an additional
       format filter immediately following in the graph to get the output in a supported format.

   hwmap
       Map hardware frames to system memory or to another device.

       This filter has several different modes of operation; which one is used depends on the
       input and output formats:

       •   Hardware frame input, normal frame output

           Map the input frames to system memory and pass them to the output.  If the original
           hardware frame is later required (for example, after overlaying something else on part
           of it), the hwmap filter can be used again in the next mode to retrieve it.

       •   Normal frame input, hardware frame output

           If the input is actually a software-mapped hardware frame, then unmap it - that is,
           return the original hardware frame.

           Otherwise, a device must be provided.  Create new hardware surfaces on that device for
           the output, then map them back to the software format at the input and give those
           frames to the preceding filter.  This will then act like the hwupload filter, but may
           be able to avoid an additional copy when the input is already in a compatible format.

       •   Hardware frame input and output

           A device must be supplied for the output, either directly or with the derive_device
           option.  The input and output devices must be of different types and compatible - the
           exact meaning of this is system-dependent, but typically it means that they must refer
           to the same underlying hardware context (for example, refer to the same graphics
           card).

           If the input frames were originally created on the output device, then unmap to
           retrieve the original frames.

           Otherwise, map the frames to the output device - create new hardware frames on the
           output corresponding to the frames on the input.

       The following additional parameters are accepted:

       mode
           Set the frame mapping mode.  Some combination of:

           read
               The mapped frame should be readable.

           write
               The mapped frame should be writeable.

           overwrite
               The mapping will always overwrite the entire frame.

               This may improve performance in some cases, as the original contents of the frame
               need not be loaded.

           direct
               The mapping must not involve any copying.

               Indirect mappings to copies of frames are created in some cases where either
               direct mapping is not possible or it would have unexpected properties.  Setting
               this flag ensures that the mapping is direct and will fail if that is not
               possible.

           Defaults to read+write if not specified.

       derive_device type
           Rather than using the device supplied at initialisation, instead derive a new device
           of type type from the device the input frames exist on.

       reverse
           In a hardware to hardware mapping, map in reverse - create frames in the sink and map
           them back to the source.  This may be necessary in some cases where a mapping in one
           direction is required but only the opposite direction is supported by the devices
           being used.

           This option is dangerous - it may break the preceding filter in undefined ways if
           there are any additional constraints on that filter's output.  Do not use it without
           fully understanding the implications of its use.

   hwupload
       Upload system memory frames to hardware surfaces.

       The device to upload to must be supplied when the filter is initialised.  If using ffmpeg,
       select the appropriate device with the -filter_hw_device option.

   hwupload_cuda
       Upload system memory frames to a CUDA device.

       It accepts the following optional parameters:

       device
           The number of the CUDA device to use

   hqx
       Apply a high-quality magnification filter designed for pixel art. This filter was
       originally created by Maxim Stepin.

       It accepts the following option:

       n   Set the scaling dimension: 2 for "hq2x", 3 for "hq3x" and 4 for "hq4x".  Default is 3.

   hstack
       Stack input videos horizontally.

       All streams must be of same pixel format and of same height.

       Note that this filter is faster than using overlay and pad filter to create same output.

       The filter accept the following option:

       inputs
           Set number of input streams. Default is 2.

       shortest
           If set to 1, force the output to terminate when the shortest input terminates. Default
           value is 0.

   hue
       Modify the hue and/or the saturation of the input.

       It accepts the following parameters:

       h   Specify the hue angle as a number of degrees. It accepts an expression, and defaults
           to "0".

       s   Specify the saturation in the [-10,10] range. It accepts an expression and defaults to
           "1".

       H   Specify the hue angle as a number of radians. It accepts an expression, and defaults
           to "0".

       b   Specify the brightness in the [-10,10] range. It accepts an expression and defaults to
           "0".

       h and H are mutually exclusive, and can't be specified at the same time.

       The b, h, H and s option values are expressions containing the following constants:

       n   frame count of the input frame starting from 0

       pts presentation timestamp of the input frame expressed in time base units

       r   frame rate of the input video, NAN if the input frame rate is unknown

       t   timestamp expressed in seconds, NAN if the input timestamp is unknown

       tb  time base of the input video

       Examples

       •   Set the hue to 90 degrees and the saturation to 1.0:

                   hue=h=90:s=1

       •   Same command but expressing the hue in radians:

                   hue=H=PI/2:s=1

       •   Rotate hue and make the saturation swing between 0 and 2 over a period of 1 second:

                   hue="H=2*PI*t: s=sin(2*PI*t)+1"

       •   Apply a 3 seconds saturation fade-in effect starting at 0:

                   hue="s=min(t/3\,1)"

           The general fade-in expression can be written as:

                   hue="s=min(0\, max((t-START)/DURATION\, 1))"

       •   Apply a 3 seconds saturation fade-out effect starting at 5 seconds:

                   hue="s=max(0\, min(1\, (8-t)/3))"

           The general fade-out expression can be written as:

                   hue="s=max(0\, min(1\, (START+DURATION-t)/DURATION))"

       Commands

       This filter supports the following commands:

       b
       s
       h
       H   Modify the hue and/or the saturation and/or brightness of the input video.  The
           command accepts the same syntax of the corresponding option.

           If the specified expression is not valid, it is kept at its current value.

   hysteresis
       Grow first stream into second stream by connecting components.  This makes it possible to
       build more robust edge masks.

       This filter accepts the following options:

       planes
           Set which planes will be processed as bitmap, unprocessed planes will be copied from
           first stream.  By default value 0xf, all planes will be processed.

       threshold
           Set threshold which is used in filtering. If pixel component value is higher than this
           value filter algorithm for connecting components is activated.  By default value is 0.

   idet
       Detect video interlacing type.

       This filter tries to detect if the input frames are interlaced, progressive, top or bottom
       field first. It will also try to detect fields that are repeated between adjacent frames
       (a sign of telecine).

       Single frame detection considers only immediately adjacent frames when classifying each
       frame.  Multiple frame detection incorporates the classification history of previous
       frames.

       The filter will log these metadata values:

       single.current_frame
           Detected type of current frame using single-frame detection. One of: ``tff'' (top
           field first), ``bff'' (bottom field first), ``progressive'', or ``undetermined''

       single.tff
           Cumulative number of frames detected as top field first using single-frame detection.

       multiple.tff
           Cumulative number of frames detected as top field first using multiple-frame
           detection.

       single.bff
           Cumulative number of frames detected as bottom field first using single-frame
           detection.

       multiple.current_frame
           Detected type of current frame using multiple-frame detection. One of: ``tff'' (top
           field first), ``bff'' (bottom field first), ``progressive'', or ``undetermined''

       multiple.bff
           Cumulative number of frames detected as bottom field first using multiple-frame
           detection.

       single.progressive
           Cumulative number of frames detected as progressive using single-frame detection.

       multiple.progressive
           Cumulative number of frames detected as progressive using multiple-frame detection.

       single.undetermined
           Cumulative number of frames that could not be classified using single-frame detection.

       multiple.undetermined
           Cumulative number of frames that could not be classified using multiple-frame
           detection.

       repeated.current_frame
           Which field in the current frame is repeated from the last. One of ``neither'',
           ``top'', or ``bottom''.

       repeated.neither
           Cumulative number of frames with no repeated field.

       repeated.top
           Cumulative number of frames with the top field repeated from the previous frame's top
           field.

       repeated.bottom
           Cumulative number of frames with the bottom field repeated from the previous frame's
           bottom field.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       intl_thres
           Set interlacing threshold.

       prog_thres
           Set progressive threshold.

       rep_thres
           Threshold for repeated field detection.

       half_life
           Number of frames after which a given frame's contribution to the statistics is halved
           (i.e., it contributes only 0.5 to its classification). The default of 0 means that all
           frames seen are given full weight of 1.0 forever.

       analyze_interlaced_flag
           When this is not 0 then idet will use the specified number of frames to determine if
           the interlaced flag is accurate, it will not count undetermined frames.  If the flag
           is found to be accurate it will be used without any further computations, if it is
           found to be inaccurate it will be cleared without any further computations. This
           allows inserting the idet filter as a low computational method to clean up the
           interlaced flag

   il
       Deinterleave or interleave fields.

       This filter allows one to process interlaced images fields without deinterlacing them.
       Deinterleaving splits the input frame into 2 fields (so called half pictures). Odd lines
       are moved to the top half of the output image, even lines to the bottom half.  You can
       process (filter) them independently and then re-interleave them.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       luma_mode, l
       chroma_mode, c
       alpha_mode, a
           Available values for luma_mode, chroma_mode and alpha_mode are:

           none
               Do nothing.

           deinterleave, d
               Deinterleave fields, placing one above the other.

           interleave, i
               Interleave fields. Reverse the effect of deinterleaving.

           Default value is "none".

       luma_swap, ls
       chroma_swap, cs
       alpha_swap, as
           Swap luma/chroma/alpha fields. Exchange even & odd lines. Default value is 0.

   inflate
       Apply inflate effect to the video.

       This filter replaces the pixel by the local(3x3) average by taking into account only
       values higher than the pixel.

       It accepts the following options:

       threshold0
       threshold1
       threshold2
       threshold3
           Limit the maximum change for each plane, default is 65535.  If 0, plane will remain
           unchanged.

   interlace
       Simple interlacing filter from progressive contents. This interleaves upper (or lower)
       lines from odd frames with lower (or upper) lines from even frames, halving the frame rate
       and preserving image height.

                  Original        Original             New Frame
                  Frame 'j'      Frame 'j+1'             (tff)
                 ==========      ===========       ==================
                   Line 0  -------------------->    Frame 'j' Line 0
                   Line 1          Line 1  ---->   Frame 'j+1' Line 1
                   Line 2 --------------------->    Frame 'j' Line 2
                   Line 3          Line 3  ---->   Frame 'j+1' Line 3
                    ...             ...                   ...
               New Frame + 1 will be generated by Frame 'j+2' and Frame 'j+3' and so on

       It accepts the following optional parameters:

       scan
           This determines whether the interlaced frame is taken from the even (tff - default) or
           odd (bff) lines of the progressive frame.

       lowpass
           Vertical lowpass filter to avoid twitter interlacing and reduce moire patterns.

           0, off
               Disable vertical lowpass filter

           1, linear
               Enable linear filter (default)

           2, complex
               Enable complex filter. This will slightly less reduce twitter and moire but better
               retain detail and subjective sharpness impression.

   kerndeint
       Deinterlace input video by applying Donald Graft's adaptive kernel deinterling. Work on
       interlaced parts of a video to produce progressive frames.

       The description of the accepted parameters follows.

       thresh
           Set the threshold which affects the filter's tolerance when determining if a pixel
           line must be processed. It must be an integer in the range [0,255] and defaults to 10.
           A value of 0 will result in applying the process on every pixels.

       map Paint pixels exceeding the threshold value to white if set to 1.  Default is 0.

       order
           Set the fields order. Swap fields if set to 1, leave fields alone if 0. Default is 0.

       sharp
           Enable additional sharpening if set to 1. Default is 0.

       twoway
           Enable twoway sharpening if set to 1. Default is 0.

       Examples

       •   Apply default values:

                   kerndeint=thresh=10:map=0:order=0:sharp=0:twoway=0

       •   Enable additional sharpening:

                   kerndeint=sharp=1

       •   Paint processed pixels in white:

                   kerndeint=map=1

   lenscorrection
       Correct radial lens distortion

       This filter can be used to correct for radial distortion as can result from the use of
       wide angle lenses, and thereby re-rectify the image. To find the right parameters one can
       use tools available for example as part of opencv or simply trial-and-error.  To use
       opencv use the calibration sample (under samples/cpp) from the opencv sources and extract
       the k1 and k2 coefficients from the resulting matrix.

       Note that effectively the same filter is available in the open-source tools Krita and
       Digikam from the KDE project.

       In contrast to the vignette filter, which can also be used to compensate lens errors, this
       filter corrects the distortion of the image, whereas vignette corrects the brightness
       distribution, so you may want to use both filters together in certain cases, though you
       will have to take care of ordering, i.e. whether vignetting should be applied before or
       after lens correction.

       Options

       The filter accepts the following options:

       cx  Relative x-coordinate of the focal point of the image, and thereby the center of the
           distortion. This value has a range [0,1] and is expressed as fractions of the image
           width.

       cy  Relative y-coordinate of the focal point of the image, and thereby the center of the
           distortion. This value has a range [0,1] and is expressed as fractions of the image
           height.

       k1  Coefficient of the quadratic correction term. 0.5 means no correction.

       k2  Coefficient of the double quadratic correction term. 0.5 means no correction.

       The formula that generates the correction is:

       r_src = r_tgt * (1 + k1 * (r_tgt / r_0)^2 + k2 * (r_tgt / r_0)^4)

       where r_0 is halve of the image diagonal and r_src and r_tgt are the distances from the
       focal point in the source and target images, respectively.

   libvmaf
       Obtain the average VMAF (Video Multi-Method Assessment Fusion) score between two input
       videos.

       This filter takes two input videos.

       Both video inputs must have the same resolution and pixel format for this filter to work
       correctly. Also it assumes that both inputs have the same number of frames, which are
       compared one by one.

       The obtained average VMAF score is printed through the logging system.

       It requires Netflix's vmaf library (libvmaf) as a pre-requisite.  After installing the
       library it can be enabled using: "./configure --enable-libvmaf".  If no model path is
       specified it uses the default model: "vmaf_v0.6.1.pkl".

       On the below examples the input file main.mpg being processed is compared with the
       reference file ref.mpg.

       The filter has following options:

       model_path
           Set the model path which is to be used for SVM.  Default value: "vmaf_v0.6.1.pkl"

       log_path
           Set the file path to be used to store logs.

       log_fmt
           Set the format of the log file (xml or json).

       enable_transform
           Enables transform for computing vmaf.

       phone_model
           Invokes the phone model which will generate VMAF scores higher than in the regular
           model, which is more suitable for laptop, TV, etc. viewing conditions.

       psnr
           Enables computing psnr along with vmaf.

       ssim
           Enables computing ssim along with vmaf.

       ms_ssim
           Enables computing ms_ssim along with vmaf.

       pool
           Set the pool method to be used for computing vmaf.

       This filter also supports the framesync options.

       For example:

               ffmpeg -i main.mpg -i ref.mpg -lavfi libvmaf -f null -

       Example with options:

               ffmpeg -i main.mpg -i ref.mpg -lavfi libvmaf="psnr=1:enable-transform=1" -f null -

           from zero to full transparency.

   lut, lutrgb, lutyuv
       Compute a look-up table for binding each pixel component input value to an output value,
       and apply it to the input video.

       lutyuv applies a lookup table to a YUV input video, lutrgb to an RGB input video.

       These filters accept the following parameters:

       c0  set first pixel component expression

       y   set Y/luminance component expression

       u   set U/Cb component expression

       v   set V/Cr component expression

       Each of them specifies the expression to use for computing the lookup table for the
       corresponding pixel component values.

       The exact component associated to each of the c* options depends on the format in input.

       The lut filter requires either YUV or RGB pixel formats in input, lutrgb requires RGB
       pixel formats in input, and lutyuv requires YUV.

       The expressions can contain the following constants and functions:

       w
       h   The input width and height.

       val The input value for the pixel component.

       clipval
           The input value, clipped to the minval-maxval range.

       maxval
           The maximum value for the pixel component.

       minval
           The minimum value for the pixel component.

       negval
           The negated value for the pixel component value, clipped to the minval-maxval range;
           it corresponds to the expression "maxval-clipval+minval".

       clip(val)
           The computed value in val, clipped to the minval-maxval range.

       gammaval(gamma)
           The computed gamma correction value of the pixel component value, clipped to the
           minval-maxval range. It corresponds to the expression
           "pow((clipval-minval)/(maxval-minval)\,gamma)*(maxval-minval)+minval"

       All expressions default to "val".

       Examples

           The above is the same as:

                   lutrgb="r=negval:g=negval:b=negval"
                   lutyuv="y=negval:u=negval:v=negval"

   maskedclamp
       Clamp the first input stream with the second input and third input stream.

       Returns the value of first stream to be between second input stream - "undershoot" and
       third input stream + "overshoot".

       This filter accepts the following options:

       undershoot
           Default value is 0.

       overshoot
           Default value is 0.

       planes

           first stream.  By default value 0xf, all planes will be processed.

   maskedmerge
       Merge the first input stream with the second input stream using per pixel weights in the
       third input stream.

       A value of 0 in the third stream pixel component means that pixel component from first
       stream is returned unchanged, while maximum value (eg. 255 for 8-bit videos) means that
       pixel component from second stream is returned unchanged. Intermediate values define the
       amount of merging between both input stream's pixel components.

       This filter accepts the following options:

       planes
           Set which planes will be processed as bitmap, unprocessed planes will be copied from
           first stream.  By default value 0xf, all planes will be processed.

   mcdeint

           1, bff
               assume bottom field first

           Default value is bff.

       qp  Set per-block quantization parameter (QP) used by the internal encoder.

           Higher values should result in a smoother motion vector field but less optimal
           individual vectors. Default value is 1.

       Merge color channel components from several video streams.

       The filter accepts up to 4 input streams, and merge selected input planes to the output
       video.

       This filter accepts the following options:

       mapping
           Set input to output plane mapping. Default is 0.

           The mappings is specified as a bitmap. It should be specified as a hexadecimal number
           in the form 0xAa[Bb[Cc[Dd]]]. 'Aa' describes the mapping for the first plane of the
           output stream. 'A' sets the number of the input stream to use (from 0 to 3), and 'a'
           the plane number of the corresponding input to use (from 0 to 3). The rest of the
           mappings is similar, 'Bb' describes the mapping for the output stream second plane,
           'Cc' describes the mapping for the output stream third plane and 'Dd' describes the
           mapping for the output stream fourth plane.

       format
           Set output pixel format. Default is "yuva444p".

       Examples

       •   Merge 1st yuv444p stream and 2nd gray video stream into yuva444p video stream:

                   [a0][a1]mergeplanes=0x00010210:yuva444p

       •   Swap Y and A plane in yuva444p stream:

                   with smaller block sizes at object boundaries in order to make the them less
                   blur. Default is 0 (disabled).

       scd Scene change detection method. Scene change leads motion vectors to be in random
           direction. Scene change detection replace interpolated frames by duplicate ones. May
           not be needed for other modes. Following values are accepted:

   mpdecimate
       Drop frames that do not differ greatly from the previous frame in order to reduce frame
       rate.

       The main use of this filter is for very-low-bitrate encoding (e.g. streaming over dialup
       modem), but it could in theory be used for fixing movies that were inverse-telecined
       incorrectly.

       A description of the accepted options follows.

       max Set the maximum number of consecutive frames which can be dropped (if positive), or
           the minimum interval between dropped frames (if negative). If the value is 0, the
           frame is dropped disregarding the number of previous sequentially dropped frames.

           Default value is 0.

       hi
       lo
       frac
           Set the dropping threshold values.

           Values for hi and lo are for 8x8 pixel blocks and represent actual pixel value
           differences, so a threshold of 64 corresponds to 1 unit of difference for each pixel,
           or the same spread out differently over the block.

           A frame is a candidate for dropping if no 8x8 blocks differ by more than a threshold
           of hi, and if no more than frac blocks (1 meaning the whole image) differ by more than
           a threshold of lo.

           Default value for hi is 64*12, default value for lo is 64*5, and default value for
           frac is 0.33.

   negate
       Negate input video.

       It accepts an integer in input; if non-zero it negates the alpha component (if available).
       The default value in input is 0.

   nlmeans
       Denoise frames using Non-Local Means algorithm.

       Each pixel is adjusted by looking for other pixels with similar contexts. This context
       similarity is defined by comparing their surrounding patches of size pxp. Patches are
       searched in an area of rxr around the pixel.

       Note that the research area defines centers for patches, which means some patches will be
       made of pixels outside that research area.

       The filter accepts the following options.

       s   Set denoising strength.

       p   Set patch size.

       pc  Same as p but for chroma planes.

           The default value is 0 and means automatic.

       r   Set research size.

       rc  Same as r but for chroma planes.

           The default value is 0 and means automatic.

   nnedi

       This filter accepts the following options:

       weights
           Mandatory option, without binary file filter can not work.  Currently file can be
           found here:
           https://github.com/dubhater/vapoursynth-nnedi3/blob/master/src/nnedi3_weights.bin

       deint
           Set which frames to deinterlace, by default it is "all".  Can be "all" or
           "interlaced".

       field
           Set mode of operation.

           Can be one of the following:

           af  Use frame flags, both fields.

           a   Use frame flags, single field.

           t   Use top field only.

           b   Use bottom field only.

           tf  Use both fields, top first.

           bf  Use both fields, bottom first.

       planes
           Set which planes to process, by default filter process all frames.

       nsize
           Set size of local neighborhood around each pixel, used by the predictor neural
           network.

           Can be one of the following:

           s8x6
           s16x6
           s32x6
           s48x6
           s8x4
           s16x4
           s32x4
       nns Set the number of neurons in predictor neural network.  Can be one of the following:

           n16
           n32
           n64
           n128
           n256
       qual
           Controls the number of different neural network predictions that are blended together
           to compute the final output value. Can be "fast", default or "slow".

       etype
           Set which set of weights to use in the predictor.  Can be one of the following:

           a   weights trained to minimize absolute error

           s   weights trained to minimize squared error

       pscrn
           Controls whether or not the prescreener neural network is used to decide which pixels
           should be processed by the predictor neural network and which can be handled by simple
           cubic interpolation.  The prescreener is trained to know whether cubic interpolation
           will be sufficient for a pixel or whether it should be predicted by the predictor nn.
           The computational complexity of the prescreener nn is much less than that of the
           predictor nn. Since most pixels can be handled by cubic interpolation, using the
           prescreener generally results in much faster processing.  The prescreener is pretty
           accurate, so the difference between using it and not using it is almost always
           unnoticeable.

           Can be one of the following:

           none
           original
           new

       Apply a video transform using libopencv.

       To enable this filter, install the libopencv library and headers and configure FFmpeg with
       "--enable-libopencv".

       It accepts the following parameters:

       filter_name
           The name of the libopencv filter to apply.

       filter_params
           The parameters to pass to the libopencv filter. If not specified, the default values
           are assumed.

       Refer to the official libopencv documentation for more precise information:
       <http://docs.opencv.org/master/modules/imgproc/doc/filtering.html>

       Several libopencv filters are supported; see the following subsections.

       dilate

       Dilate an image by using a specific structuring element.  It corresponds to the libopencv
       function "cvDilate".

       It accepts the parameters: struct_el|nb_iterations.

       struct_el represents a structuring element, and has the syntax:
       colsxrows+anchor_xxanchor_y/shape

       cols and rows represent the number of columns and rows of the structuring element,
       anchor_x and anchor_y the anchor point, and shape the shape for the structuring element.
       shape must be "rect", "cross", "ellipse", or "custom".

       If the value for shape is "custom", it must be followed by a string of the form
       "=filename". The file with name filename is assumed to represent a binary image, with each
       printable character corresponding to a bright pixel. When a custom shape is used, cols and
       rows are ignored, the number or columns and rows of the read file are assumed instead.

       The default value for struct_el is "3x3+0x0/rect".

       nb_iterations specifies the number of times the transform is applied to the image, and
       defaults to 1.

       Some examples:

               # Use the default values
               ocv=dilate

               # Dilate using a structuring element with a 5x5 cross, iterating two times
               ocv=filter_name=dilate:filter_params=5x5+2x2/cross|2

               # Read the shape from the file diamond.shape, iterating two times.
               # The file diamond.shape may contain a pattern of characters like this
               #   *
               #  ***
               # *****
               #  ***
               #   *

       erode

       Erode an image by using a specific structuring element.  It corresponds to the libopencv
       function "cvErode".

       It accepts the parameters: struct_el:nb_iterations, with the same syntax and semantics as
       the dilate filter.

       smooth

       Smooth the input video.

       The filter takes the following parameters: type|param1|param2|param3|param4.

       type is the type of smooth filter to apply, and must be one of the following values:
       "blur", "blur_no_scale", "median", "gaussian", or "bilateral". The default value is
       "gaussian".

       The meaning of param1, param2, param3, and param4 depend on the smooth type. param1 and
       param2 accept integer positive values or 0. param3 and param4 accept floating point
       values.

       The default value for param1 is 3. The default value for the other parameters is 0.

       These parameters correspond to the parameters assigned to the libopencv function
       "cvSmooth".

   oscilloscope
       2D Video Oscilloscope.

       Useful to measure spatial impulse, step responses, chroma delays, etc.

       It accepts the following parameters:

       x   Set scope center x position.

       y   Set scope center y position.

       s   Set scope size, relative to frame diagonal.

       t   Set scope tilt/rotation.

       o   Set trace opacity.

       tx  Set trace center x position.

       ty  Set trace center y position.

       tw  Set trace width, relative to width of frame.

       th  Set trace height, relative to height of frame.

       c   Set which components to trace. By default it traces first three components.

       g   Draw trace grid. By default is enabled.

       st  Draw some statistics. By default is enabled.

       sc  Draw scope. By default is enabled.

       Examples

       •   Inspect full first row of video frame.

                   oscilloscope=x=0.5:y=0:s=1

       •   Inspect full last row of video frame.

                   oscilloscope=x=0.5:y=1:s=1

       •   Inspect full 5th line of video frame of height 1080.

                   oscilloscope=x=0.5:y=5/1080:s=1

       •   Inspect full last column of video frame.

                   oscilloscope=x=1:y=0.5:s=1:t=1

   overlay
       Overlay one video on top of another.

       It takes two inputs and has one output. The first input is the "main" video on which the
       second input is overlaid.

       It accepts the following parameters:

       A description of the accepted options follows.

       x
       y   Set the expression for the x and y coordinates of the overlaid video on the main
           video. Default value is "0" for both expressions. In case the expression is invalid,
           it is set to a huge value (meaning that the overlay will not be displayed within the
           output visible area).

       eof_action
           See framesync.

       eval
           Set when the expressions for x, and y are evaluated.

           It accepts the following values:

           init
               only evaluate expressions once during the filter initialization or when a command
               is processed

           frame
               evaluate expressions for each incoming frame

           Default value is frame.

       shortest
           See framesync.

       format
           Set the format for the output video.

           It accepts the following values:

           yuv420
               force YUV420 output

           yuv422
               force YUV422 output

           yuv444
               force YUV444 output

           rgb force packed RGB output

           gbrp
               force planar RGB output

           auto
               automatically pick format

           Default value is yuv420.

       repeatlast
           See framesync.

       The x, and y expressions can contain the following parameters.

       main_w, W
       main_h, H
           The main input width and height.

       overlay_w, w
       overlay_h, h
           The overlay input width and height.

       x
       y   The computed values for x and y. They are evaluated for each new frame.

       hsub
       vsub
           horizontal and vertical chroma subsample values of the output format. For example for
           the pixel format "yuv422p" hsub is 2 and vsub is 1.

       n   the number of input frame, starting from 0

       pos the position in the file of the input frame, NAN if unknown

       t   The timestamp, expressed in seconds. It's NAN if the input timestamp is unknown.

       This filter also supports the framesync options.

       Note that the n, pos, t variables are available only when evaluation is done per frame,
       and will evaluate to NAN when eval is set to init.

       Be aware that frames are taken from each input video in timestamp order, hence, if their
       initial timestamps differ, it is a good idea to pass the two inputs through a
       setpts=PTS-STARTPTS filter to have them begin in the same zero timestamp, as the example
       for the movie filter does.

       You can chain together more overlays but you should test the efficiency of such approach.

       Commands

       This filter supports the following commands:

       x
       y   Modify the x and y of the overlay input.  The command accepts the same syntax of the
           corresponding option.

           If the specified expression is not valid, it is kept at its current value.

       Examples

       •   Draw the overlay at 10 pixels from the bottom right corner of the main video:

                   overlay=main_w-overlay_w-10:main_h-overlay_h-10

           Using named options the example above becomes:

                   overlay=x=main_w-overlay_w-10:y=main_h-overlay_h-10

       •   Insert a transparent PNG logo in the bottom left corner of the input, using the ffmpeg
           tool with the "-filter_complex" option:

                   ffmpeg -i input -i logo -filter_complex 'overlay=10:main_h-overlay_h-10' output

       •   Insert 2 different transparent PNG logos (second logo on bottom right corner) using
           the ffmpeg tool:

                   ffmpeg -i input -i logo1 -i logo2 -filter_complex 'overlay=x=10:y=H-h-10,overlay=x=W-w-10:y=H-h-10' output

       •   Add a transparent color layer on top of the main video; "WxH" must specify the size of
           the main input to the overlay filter:

                   color=color=red@.3:size=WxH [over]; [in][over] overlay [out]

       •   Play an original video and a filtered version (here with the deshake filter) side by
           side using the ffplay tool:

                   ffplay input.avi -vf 'split[a][b]; [a]pad=iw*2:ih[src]; [b]deshake[filt]; [src][filt]overlay=w'

           The above command is the same as:

                   ffplay input.avi -vf 'split[b], pad=iw*2[src], [b]deshake, [src]overlay=w'

       •   Make a sliding overlay appearing from the left to the right top part of the screen
           starting since time 2:

                   overlay=x='if(gte(t,2), -w+(t-2)*20, NAN)':y=0

       •   Compose output by putting two input videos side to side:

                   ffmpeg -i left.avi -i right.avi -filter_complex "
                   nullsrc=size=200x100 [background];
                   [0:v] setpts=PTS-STARTPTS, scale=100x100 [left];
                   [1:v] setpts=PTS-STARTPTS, scale=100x100 [right];
                   [background][left]       overlay=shortest=1       [background+left];
                   [background+left][right] overlay=shortest=1:x=100 [left+right]
                   "

       •   Mask 10-20 seconds of a video by applying the delogo filter to a section

                   ffmpeg -i test.avi -codec:v:0 wmv2 -ar 11025 -b:v 9000k
                   -vf '[in]split[split_main][split_delogo];[split_delogo]trim=start=360:end=371,delogo=0:0:640:480[delogoed];[split_main][delogoed]overlay=eof_action=pass[out]'
                   masked.avi

       •   Chain several overlays in cascade:

                   nullsrc=s=200x200 [bg];
                   testsrc=s=100x100, split=4 [in0][in1][in2][in3];
                   [in0] lutrgb=r=0, [bg]   overlay=0:0     [mid0];
                   [in1] lutrgb=g=0, [mid0] overlay=100:0   [mid1];
                   [in2] lutrgb=b=0, [mid1] overlay=0:100   [mid2];
                   [in3] null,       [mid2] overlay=100:100 [out0]

   owdenoise
       Apply Overcomplete Wavelet denoiser.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       depth
           Set depth.

           Larger depth values will denoise lower frequency components more, but slow down
           filtering.

           Must be an int in the range 8-16, default is 8.

       luma_strength, ls
           Set luma strength.

           Must be a double value in the range 0-1000, default is 1.0.

       chroma_strength, cs
           Set chroma strength.

           Must be a double value in the range 0-1000, default is 1.0.

   pad
       Add paddings to the input image, and place the original input at the provided x, y
       coordinates.

       It accepts the following parameters:

       width, w
       height, h
           Specify an expression for the size of the output image with the paddings added. If the
           value for width or height is 0, the corresponding input size is used for the output.

           The width expression can reference the value set by the height expression, and vice
           versa.

           The default value of width and height is 0.

       x
       y   Specify the offsets to place the input image at within the padded area, with respect
           to the top/left border of the output image.

           The x expression can reference the value set by the y expression, and vice versa.

           The default value of x and y is 0.

           If x or y evaluate to a negative number, they'll be changed so the input image is
           centered on the padded area.

       color
           Specify the color of the padded area. For the syntax of this option, check the "Color"
           section in the ffmpeg-utils manual.

           The default value of color is "black".

       eval
           Specify when to evaluate  width, height, x and y expression.

           It accepts the following values:

           init
               Only evaluate expressions once during the filter initialization or when a command
               is processed.

           frame
               Evaluate expressions for each incoming frame.

           Default value is init.

       aspect
           Pad to aspect instead to a resolution.

       The value for the width, height, x, and y options are expressions containing the following
       constants:

       in_w
       in_h
           The input video width and height.

       iw
       ih  These are the same as in_w and in_h.

       out_w
       out_h
           The output width and height (the size of the padded area), as specified by the width
           and height expressions.

       ow
       oh  These are the same as out_w and out_h.

       x
       y   The x and y offsets as specified by the x and y expressions, or NAN if not yet
           specified.

       a   same as iw / ih

       sar input sample aspect ratio

       dar input display aspect ratio, it is the same as (iw / ih) * sar

       hsub
       vsub
           The horizontal and vertical chroma subsample values. For example for the pixel format
           "yuv422p" hsub is 2 and vsub is 1.

       Examples

       •   Add paddings with the color "violet" to the input video. The output video size is
           640x480, and the top-left corner of the input video is placed at column 0, row 40

                   pad=640:480:0:40:violet

           The example above is equivalent to the following command:

                   pad=width=640:height=480:x=0:y=40:color=violet

       •   Pad the input to get an output with dimensions increased by 3/2, and put the input
           video at the center of the padded area:

                   pad="3/2*iw:3/2*ih:(ow-iw)/2:(oh-ih)/2"

       •   Pad the input to get a squared output with size equal to the maximum value between the
           input width and height, and put the input video at the center of the padded area:

                   pad="max(iw\,ih):ow:(ow-iw)/2:(oh-ih)/2"

       •   Pad the input to get a final w/h ratio of 16:9:

                   pad="ih*16/9:ih:(ow-iw)/2:(oh-ih)/2"

       •   In case of anamorphic video, in order to set the output display aspect correctly, it
           is necessary to use sar in the expression, according to the relation:

                   (ih * X / ih) * sar = output_dar
                   X = output_dar / sar

           Thus the previous example needs to be modified to:

                   pad="ih*16/9/sar:ih:(ow-iw)/2:(oh-ih)/2"

       •   Double the output size and put the input video in the bottom-right corner of the
           output padded area:

                   pad="2*iw:2*ih:ow-iw:oh-ih"

   palettegen
       Generate one palette for a whole video stream.

       It accepts the following options:

       max_colors
           Set the maximum number of colors to quantize in the palette.  Note: the palette will
           still contain 256 colors; the unused palette entries will be black.

       reserve_transparent
           Create a palette of 255 colors maximum and reserve the last one for transparency.
           Reserving the transparency color is useful for GIF optimization.  If not set, the
           maximum of colors in the palette will be 256. You probably want to disable this option
           for a standalone image.  Set by default.

       stats_mode
           Set statistics mode.

           It accepts the following values:

           full
               Compute full frame histograms.

           diff
               Compute histograms only for the part that differs from previous frame. This might
               be relevant to give more importance to the moving part of your input if the
               background is static.

           single
               Compute new histogram for each frame.

           Default value is full.

       The filter also exports the frame metadata "lavfi.color_quant_ratio" ("nb_color_in /
       nb_color_out") which you can use to evaluate the degree of color quantization of the
       palette. This information is also visible at info logging level.

       Examples

       •   Generate a representative palette of a given video using ffmpeg:

                   ffmpeg -i input.mkv -vf palettegen palette.png

   paletteuse
       Use a palette to downsample an input video stream.

       The filter takes two inputs: one video stream and a palette. The palette must be a 256
       pixels image.

       It accepts the following options:

       dither
           Select dithering mode. Available algorithms are:

           bayer
               Ordered 8x8 bayer dithering (deterministic)

           heckbert
               Dithering as defined by Paul Heckbert in 1982 (simple error diffusion).  Note:
               this dithering is sometimes considered "wrong" and is included as a reference.

           floyd_steinberg
               Floyd and Steingberg dithering (error diffusion)

           sierra2
               Frankie Sierra dithering v2 (error diffusion)

           sierra2_4a
               Frankie Sierra dithering v2 "Lite" (error diffusion)

           Default is sierra2_4a.

       bayer_scale
           When bayer dithering is selected, this option defines the scale of the pattern (how
           much the crosshatch pattern is visible). A low value means more visible pattern for
           less banding, and higher value means less visible pattern at the cost of more banding.

           The option must be an integer value in the range [0,5]. Default is 2.

       diff_mode
           If set, define the zone to process

           rectangle
               Only the changing rectangle will be reprocessed. This is similar to GIF
               cropping/offsetting compression mechanism. This option can be useful for speed if
               only a part of the image is changing, and has use cases such as limiting the scope
               of the error diffusal dither to the rectangle that bounds the moving scene (it
               leads to more deterministic output if the scene doesn't change much, and as a
               result less moving noise and better GIF compression).

           Default is none.

       new Take new palette for each output frame.

       Examples

       •   Use a palette (generated for example with palettegen) to encode a GIF using ffmpeg:

                   ffmpeg -i input.mkv -i palette.png -lavfi paletteuse output.gif

   perspective
       Correct perspective of video not recorded perpendicular to the screen.

       A description of the accepted parameters follows.

       x1
       y1
       x2
       y2
       x3
       y3  Set coordinates expression for top left, top right, bottom left and bottom right
           corners.  Default values are "0:0:W:0:0:H:W:H" with which perspective will remain
           unchanged.  If the "sense" option is set to "source", then the specified points will
           be sent to the corners of the destination. If the "sense" option is set to
           "destination", then the corners of the source will be sent to the specified
           coordinates.

           The expressions can use the following variables:

           W
           H   the width and height of video frame.

           in  Input frame count.

           on  Output frame count.

       interpolation

           It accepts the following values:

           init
               only evaluate expressions once during the filter initialization or when a command
               is processed

           frame
               evaluate expressions for each incoming frame

           Default value is init.

   phase
       Delay interlaced video by one field time so that the field order changes.

       The intended use is to fix PAL movies that have been captured with the opposite field
       order to the film-to-video transfer.

       A description of the accepted parameters follows.

       mode
           Set phase mode.

           It accepts the following values:

           t   Capture field order top-first, transfer bottom-first.  Filter will delay the
               bottom field.

           b   Capture field order bottom-first, transfer top-first.  Filter will delay the top
               field.

           p   Capture and transfer with the same field order. This mode only exists for the
               documentation of the other options to refer to, but if you actually select it, the
               filter will faithfully do nothing.

           a   Capture field order determined automatically by field flags, transfer opposite.
               Filter selects among t and b modes on a frame by frame basis using field flags. If
               no field information is available, then this works just like u.

           u   Capture unknown or varying, transfer opposite.  Filter selects among t and b on a
               frame by frame basis by analyzing the images and selecting the alternative that
               produces best match between the fields.

           T   Capture top-first, transfer unknown or varying.  Filter selects among t and p
               using image analysis.

           B   Capture bottom-first, transfer unknown or varying.  Filter selects among b and p
               using image analysis.

           A   Capture determined by field flags, transfer unknown or varying.  Filter selects
               among t, b and p using field flags and image analysis. If no field information is
               available, then this works just like U. This is the default mode.

           U   Both capture and transfer unknown or varying.  Filter selects among t, b and p
               using image analysis only.

   pixdesctest
       Pixel format descriptor test filter, mainly useful for internal testing. The output video
       should be equal to the input video.

       For example:

               format=monow, pixdesctest

       can be used to test the monowhite pixel format descriptor definition.

   pixscope
       Display sample values of color channels. Mainly useful for checking color and levels.
       Minimum supported resolution is 640x480.

       The filters accept the following options:

       x   Set scope X position, relative offset on X axis.

       y   Set scope Y position, relative offset on Y axis.

       w   Set scope width.

       h   Set scope height.

       o   Set window opacity. This window also holds statistics about pixel area.

       wx  Set window X position, relative offset on X axis.

       wy  Set window Y position, relative offset on Y axis.

   pp
       Enable the specified chain of postprocessing subfilters using libpostproc. This library
       should be automatically selected with a GPL build ("--enable-gpl").  Subfilters must be
       separated by '/' and can be disabled by prepending a '-'.  Each subfilter and some options
       have a short and a long name that can be used interchangeably, i.e. dr/dering are the
       same.

       The filters accept the following options:

       subfilters
           Set postprocessing subfilters string.

       All subfilters share common options to determine their scope:

       a/autoq
           Honor the quality commands for this subfilter.

       c/chrom
           Do chrominance filtering, too (default).

       y/nochrom
           Do luminance filtering only (no chrominance).

       n/noluma
           Do chrominance filtering only (no luminance).

       These options can be appended after the subfilter name, separated by a '|'.

       Available subfilters are:

       vb/vdeblock[|difference[|flatness]]
           Vertical deblocking filter

           difference
               Difference factor where higher values mean more deblocking (default: 32).

           flatness
               Flatness threshold where lower values mean more deblocking (default: 39).

       The horizontal and vertical deblocking filters share the difference and flatness values so
       you cannot set different horizontal and vertical thresholds.

                   pp=de/-al

       •   Apply default filters and temporal denoiser:

                   pp=default/tmpnoise|1|2|3

       •   Apply deblocking on luminance only, and switch vertical deblocking on or off
           automatically depending on available CPU time:

                   pp=hb|y/vb|a

   pp7
       Apply Postprocessing filter 7. It is variant of the spp filter, similar to spp = 6 with 7
       point DCT, where only the center sample is used after IDCT.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       qp  Force a constant quantization parameter. It accepts an integer in range 0 to 63. If
           not set, the filter will use the QP from the video stream (if available).

       mode
           Set thresholding mode. Available modes are:

           hard
               Set hard thresholding.

           soft
               Set soft thresholding (better de-ringing effect, but likely blurrier).

           medium
               Set medium thresholding (good results, default).

   premultiply
       Apply alpha premultiply effect to input video stream using first plane of second stream as
       alpha.

       Both streams must have same dimensions and same pixel format.

       The filter accepts the following option:

       planes
           Set which planes will be processed, unprocessed planes will be copied.  By default
           value 0xf, all planes will be processed.

       inplace
           Do not require 2nd input for processing, instead use alpha plane from input stream.

   prewitt
       Apply prewitt operator to input video stream.

       The filter accepts the following option:

       planes
           Set which planes will be processed, unprocessed planes will be copied.  By default
           value 0xf, all planes will be processed.

       scale
           Set value which will be multiplied with filtered result.

       delta
           Set value which will be added to filtered result.

   pseudocolor
       Alter frame colors in video with pseudocolors.

       This filter accept the following options:

       c0  set pixel first component expression

       c1  set pixel second component expression

       c2  set pixel third component expression

       c3  set pixel fourth component expression, corresponds to the alpha component

       i   set component to use as base for altering colors

       Each of them specifies the expression to use for computing the lookup table for the
       corresponding pixel component values.

       The expressions can contain the following constants and functions:

       w
       h   The input width and height.

       val The input value for the pixel component.

       ymin, umin, vmin, amin
           The minimum allowed component value.

       ymax, umax, vmax, amax
           The maximum allowed component value.

       All expressions default to "val".

       Examples

       •   Change too high luma values to gradient:

                   pseudocolor="'if(between(val,ymax,amax),lerp(ymin,ymax,(val-ymax)/(amax-ymax)),-1):if(between(val,ymax,amax),lerp(umax,umin,(val-ymax)/(amax-ymax)),-1):if(between(val,ymax,amax),lerp(vmin,vmax,(val-ymax)/(amax-ymax)),-1):-1'"

   psnr
       Obtain the average, maximum and minimum PSNR (Peak Signal to Noise Ratio) between two
       input videos.

       This filter takes in input two input videos, the first input is considered the "main"
       source and is passed unchanged to the output. The second input is used as a "reference"
       video for computing the PSNR.

       Both video inputs must have the same resolution and pixel format for this filter to work
       correctly. Also it assumes that both inputs have the same number of frames, which are
       compared one by one.

       The obtained average PSNR is printed through the logging system.

       The filter stores the accumulated MSE (mean squared error) of each frame, and at the end
       of the processing it is averaged across all frames equally, and the following formula is
       applied to obtain the PSNR:

               PSNR = 10*log10(MAX^2/MSE)

       Where MAX is the average of the maximum values of each component of the image.

       The description of the accepted parameters follows.

       stats_file, f
           If specified the filter will use the named file to save the PSNR of each individual
           frame. When filename equals "-" the data is sent to standard output.

       stats_version
           Specifies which version of the stats file format to use. Details of each format are
           written below.  Default value is 1.

       stats_add_max
           Determines whether the max value is output to the stats log.  Default value is 0.
           Requires stats_version >= 2. If this is set and stats_version < 2, the filter will
           return an error.

       This filter also supports the framesync options.

       The file printed if stats_file is selected, contains a sequence of key/value pairs of the
       form key:value for each compared couple of frames.

       If a stats_version greater than 1 is specified, a header line precedes the list of per-
       frame-pair stats, with key value pairs following the frame format with the following
       parameters:

       psnr_log_version
           The version of the log file format. Will match stats_version.

       fields
           A comma separated list of the per-frame-pair parameters included in the log.

       A description of each shown per-frame-pair parameter follows:

       n   sequential number of the input frame, starting from 1

       mse_avg
           Mean Square Error pixel-by-pixel average difference of the compared frames, averaged
           over all the image components.

       mse_y, mse_u, mse_v, mse_r, mse_g, mse_g, mse_a
           Mean Square Error pixel-by-pixel average difference of the compared frames for the
           component specified by the suffix.

       psnr_y, psnr_u, psnr_v, psnr_r, psnr_g, psnr_b, psnr_a
           Peak Signal to Noise ratio of the compared frames for the component specified by the
           suffix.

       max_avg, max_y, max_u, max_v
           Maximum allowed value for each channel, and average over all channels.

       For example:

               movie=ref_movie.mpg, setpts=PTS-STARTPTS [main];
               [main][ref] psnr="stats_file=stats.log" [out]

       On this example the input file being processed is compared with the reference file
       ref_movie.mpg. The PSNR of each individual frame is stored in stats.log.

   pullup
       Pulldown reversal (inverse telecine) filter, capable of handling mixed hard-telecine,
       24000/1001 fps progressive, and 30000/1001 fps progressive content.

       The pullup filter is designed to take advantage of future context in making its decisions.
       This filter is stateless in the sense that it does not lock onto a pattern to follow, but
       it instead looks forward to the following fields in order to identify matches and rebuild
       progressive frames.

       To produce content with an even framerate, insert the fps filter after pullup, use
       "fps=24000/1001" if the input frame rate is 29.97fps, "fps=24" for 30fps and the (rare)
       telecined 25fps input.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       jl
       jr
       jt
       jb  These options set the amount of "junk" to ignore at the left, right, top, and bottom
           of the image, respectively. Left and right are in units of 8 pixels, while top and
           bottom are in units of 2 lines.  The default is 8 pixels on each side.

       sb  Set the strict breaks. Setting this option to 1 will reduce the chances of filter
           generating an occasional mismatched frame, but it may also cause an excessive number
           of frames to be dropped during high motion sequences.  Conversely, setting it to -1
           will make filter match fields more easily.  This may help processing of video where
           there is slight blurring between the fields, but may also cause there to be interlaced
           frames in the output.  Default value is 0.

       mp  Set the metric plane to use. It accepts the following values:

           l   Use luma plane.

           u   Use chroma blue plane.

           v   Use chroma red plane.

           This option may be set to use chroma plane instead of the default luma plane for doing
           filter's computations. This may improve accuracy on very clean source material, but
           more likely will decrease accuracy, especially if there is chroma noise (rainbow
           effect) or any grayscale video.  The main purpose of setting mp to a chroma plane is
           to reduce CPU load and make pullup usable in realtime on slow machines.

       For best results (without duplicated frames in the output file) it is necessary to change
       the output frame rate. For example, to inverse telecine NTSC input:

               ffmpeg -i input -vf pullup -r 24000/1001 ...

   qp
       Change video quantization parameters (QP).

       The filter accepts the following option:

       qp  Set expression for quantization parameter.

       The expression is evaluated through the eval API and can contain, among others, the
       following constants:

       known
           1 if index is not 129, 0 otherwise.

       qp  Sequential index starting from -129 to 128.

       Examples

       •   Some equation like:

                   qp=2+2*sin(PI*qp)

   random
       Flush video frames from internal cache of frames into a random order.  No frame is
       discarded.  Inspired by frei0r nervous filter.

       frames
           Set size in number of frames of internal cache, in range from 2 to 512. Default is 30.

       seed
           Set seed for random number generator, must be an integer included between 0 and
           "UINT32_MAX". If not specified, or if explicitly set to less than 0, the filter will
           try to use a good random seed on a best effort basis.

   readeia608
       Read closed captioning (EIA-608) information from the top lines of a video frame.

       This filter adds frame metadata for "lavfi.readeia608.X.cc" and "lavfi.readeia608.X.line",
       where "X" is the number of the identified line with EIA-608 data (starting from 0). A
       description of each metadata value follows:

       lavfi.readeia608.X.cc
           The two bytes stored as EIA-608 data (printed in hexadecimal).

       lavfi.readeia608.X.line

       Examples

       •   Output a csv with presentation time and the first two lines of identified EIA-608
           captioning data.

                   ffprobe -f lavfi -i movie=captioned_video.mov,readeia608 -show_entries frame=pkt_pts_time:frame_tags=lavfi.readeia608.0.cc,lavfi.readeia608.1.cc -of csv

   readvitc
       Read vertical interval timecode (VITC) information from the top lines of a video frame.

       The filter adds frame metadata key "lavfi.readvitc.tc_str" with the timecode value, if a
       valid timecode has been detected. Further metadata key "lavfi.readvitc.found" is set to
       0/1 depending on whether timecode data has been found or not.

       This filter accepts the following options:

       scan_max
           Set the maximum number of lines to scan for VITC data. If the value is set to "-1" the
           full video frame is scanned. Default is 45.

       thr_b

           default value is 0.6. The value must be equal or greater than "thr_b".

       Examples

       •   Detect and draw VITC data onto the video frame; if no valid VITC is detected, draw
           "--:--:--:--" as a placeholder:

                   ffmpeg -i input.avi -filter:v 'readvitc,drawtext=fontfile=FreeMono.ttf:text=%{metadata\\:lavfi.readvitc.tc_str\\:--\\\\\\:--\\\\\\:--\\\\\\:--}:x=(w-tw)/2:y=400-ascent'

   remap
       Remap pixels using 2nd: Xmap and 3rd: Ymap input video stream.

       Destination pixel at position (X, Y) will be picked from source (x, y) position where x =
       Xmap(X, Y) and y = Ymap(X, Y). If mapping values are out of range, zero value for pixel
       will be used for destination pixel.

       Xmap and Ymap input video streams must be of same dimensions. Output video stream will
       have Xmap/Ymap video stream dimensions.  Xmap and Ymap input video streams are 16bit
       depth, single channel.

   removegrain
       The removegrain filter is a spatial denoiser for progressive video.

       m0  Set mode for the first plane.

       m1  Set mode for the second plane.

       m2  Set mode for the third plane.

       m3  Set mode for the fourth plane.

       Range of mode is from 0 to 24. Description of each mode follows:

       1   Clips the pixel with the minimum and maximum of the 8 neighbour pixels.

       2   Clips the pixel with the second minimum and maximum of the 8 neighbour pixels.

       3   Clips the pixel with the third minimum and maximum of the 8 neighbour pixels.

       4   Clips the pixel with the fourth minimum and maximum of the 8 neighbour pixels.  This
           is equivalent to a median filter.

       5   Line-sensitive clipping giving the minimal change.

       6   Line-sensitive clipping, intermediate.

       7   Line-sensitive clipping, intermediate.

       8   Line-sensitive clipping, intermediate.

       10  Replaces the target pixel with the closest neighbour.

       11  [1 2 1] horizontal and vertical kernel blur.

       12  Same as mode 11.

       13  Bob mode, interpolates top field from the line where the neighbours pixels are the
           closest.

       14  Bob mode, interpolates bottom field from the line where the neighbours pixels are the
           closest.

       15  Bob mode, interpolates top field. Same as 13 but with a more complicated interpolation
           formula.

       16  Bob mode, interpolates bottom field. Same as 14 but with a more complicated
           interpolation formula.

       17  Clips the pixel with the minimum and maximum of respectively the maximum and minimum
           of each pair of opposite neighbour pixels.

       18  Line-sensitive clipping using opposite neighbours whose greatest distance from the
           current pixel is minimal.

       19  Replaces the pixel with the average of its 8 neighbours.

       20  Averages the 9 pixels ([1 1 1] horizontal and vertical blur).

       21  Clips pixels using the averages of opposite neighbour.

       22  Same as mode 21 but simpler and faster.

       23  Small edge and halo removal, but reputed useless.

       24  Similar as 23.

   removelogo
       Suppress a TV station logo, using an image file to determine which pixels comprise the
       logo. It works by filling in the pixels that comprise the logo with neighboring pixels.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       filename, f
           Set the filter bitmap file, which can be any image format supported by libavformat.
           The width and height of the image file must match those of the video stream being
           processed.

       Pixels in the provided bitmap image with a value of zero are not considered part of the
       logo, non-zero pixels are considered part of the logo. If you use white (255) for the logo
       and black (0) for the rest, you will be safe. For making the filter bitmap, it is
       recommended to take a screen capture of a black frame with the logo visible, and then
       using a threshold filter followed by the erode filter once or twice.

       If needed, little splotches can be fixed manually. Remember that if logo pixels are not
       covered, the filter quality will be much reduced. Marking too many pixels as part of the
       logo does not hurt as much, but it will increase the amount of blurring needed to cover
       over the image and will destroy more information than necessary, and extra pixels will
       slow things down on a large logo.

   repeatfields
       This filter uses the repeat_field flag from the Video ES headers and hard repeats fields
       based on its value.

   reverse
       Reverse a video clip.

       Warning: This filter requires memory to buffer the entire clip, so trimming is suggested.

       Examples

       •   Take the first 5 seconds of a clip, and reverse it.

                   trim=end=5,reverse

   roberts
       Apply roberts cross operator to input video stream.

       The filter accepts the following option:

       planes
           Set which planes will be processed, unprocessed planes will be copied.  By default
           value 0xf, all planes will be processed.

       scale
           Set value which will be multiplied with filtered result.

       delta
           Set value which will be added to filtered result.

   rotate
       Rotate video by an arbitrary angle expressed in radians.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       A description of the optional parameters follows.

       angle, a
           Set an expression for the angle by which to rotate the input video clockwise,
           expressed as a number of radians. A negative value will result in a counter-clockwise
           rotation. By default it is set to "0".

           This expression is evaluated for each frame.

       out_w, ow
           Set the output width expression, default value is "iw".  This expression is evaluated
           just once during configuration.

       out_h, oh
           Set the output height expression, default value is "ih".  This expression is evaluated
           just once during configuration.

       bilinear
           Enable bilinear interpolation if set to 1, a value of 0 disables it. Default value is
           1.

       fillcolor, c
           Set the color used to fill the output area not covered by the rotated image. For the
           general syntax of this option, check the "Color" section in the ffmpeg-utils manual.
           If the special value "none" is selected then no background is printed (useful for
           example if the background is never shown).

           Default value is "black".

       The expressions for the angle and the output size can contain the following constants and
       functions:

       n   sequential number of the input frame, starting from 0. It is always NAN before the
           first frame is filtered.

       t   time in seconds of the input frame, it is set to 0 when the filter is configured. It
           is always NAN before the first frame is filtered.

       hsub
       vsub
           horizontal and vertical chroma subsample values. For example for the pixel format
           "yuv422p" hsub is 2 and vsub is 1.

       in_w, iw
       in_h, ih
           the input video width and height

       out_w, ow
       out_h, oh
           the output width and height, that is the size of the padded area as specified by the
           width and height expressions

       rotw(a)
       roth(a)
           the minimal width/height required for completely containing the input video rotated by
           a radians.

           These are only available when computing the out_w and out_h expressions.

       Examples

       •   Rotate the input by PI/6 radians clockwise:

                   rotate=PI/6

       •   Rotate the input by PI/6 radians counter-clockwise:

                   rotate=-PI/6

       •   Rotate the input by 45 degrees clockwise:

                   rotate=45*PI/180

       •   Apply a constant rotation with period T, starting from an angle of PI/3:

                   rotate=PI/3+2*PI*t/T

       •   Make the input video rotation oscillating with a period of T seconds and an amplitude
           of A radians:

                   rotate=A*sin(2*PI/T*t)

       •   Rotate the video, output size is chosen so that the whole rotating input video is
           always completely contained in the output:

                   rotate='2*PI*t:ow=hypot(iw,ih):oh=ow'

       •   Rotate the video, reduce the output size so that no background is ever shown:

                   rotate=2*PI*t:ow='min(iw,ih)/sqrt(2)':oh=ow:c=none

       Commands

       The filter supports the following commands:

       a, angle
           Set the angle expression.  The command accepts the same syntax of the corresponding
           option.

           If the specified expression is not valid, it is kept at its current value.

   sab
       Apply Shape Adaptive Blur.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       luma_radius, lr
           Set luma blur filter strength, must be a value in range 0.1-4.0, default value is 1.0.
           A greater value will result in a more blurred image, and in slower processing.

       luma_pre_filter_radius, lpfr
           Set luma pre-filter radius, must be a value in the 0.1-2.0 range, default value is
           1.0.

       luma_strength, ls
           Set luma maximum difference between pixels to still be considered, must be a value in
           the 0.1-100.0 range, default value is 1.0.

       chroma_radius, cr
           Set chroma blur filter strength, must be a value in range -0.9-4.0. A greater value
           will result in a more blurred image, and in slower processing.

       chroma_pre_filter_radius, cpfr
           Set chroma pre-filter radius, must be a value in the -0.9-2.0 range.

       chroma_strength, cs
           Set chroma maximum difference between pixels to still be considered, must be a value
           in the -0.9-100.0 range.

       Each chroma option value, if not explicitly specified, is set to the corresponding luma
       option value.

   scale
       Scale (resize) the input video, using the libswscale library.

       The scale filter forces the output display aspect ratio to be the same of the input, by
       changing the output sample aspect ratio.

       If the input image format is different from the format requested by the next filter, the
       scale filter will convert the input to the requested format.

       Options

       The filter accepts the following options, or any of the options supported by the
       libswscale scaler.

       See the ffmpeg-scaler manual for the complete list of scaler options.

       width, w
       height, h
           Set the output video dimension expression. Default value is the input dimension.

           If the width or w value is 0, the input width is used for the output. If the height or
           h value is 0, the input height is used for the output.

           If one and only one of the values is -n with n >= 1, the scale filter will use a value
           that maintains the aspect ratio of the input image, calculated from the other
           specified dimension. After that it will, however, make sure that the calculated
           dimension is divisible by n and adjust the value if necessary.

           If both values are -n with n >= 1, the behavior will be identical to both values being
           set to 0 as previously detailed.

           See below for the list of accepted constants for use in the dimension expression.

       eval
           Specify when to evaluate width and height expression. It accepts the following values:

           init
               Only evaluate expressions once during the filter initialization or when a command
               is processed.

           frame
               Evaluate expressions for each incoming frame.

           Default value is init.

       interl
           Set the interlacing mode. It accepts the following values:

           1   Force interlaced aware scaling.

           0   Do not apply interlaced scaling.

           -1  Select interlaced aware scaling depending on whether the source frames are flagged
               as interlaced or not.

           Default value is 0.

       flags
           Set libswscale scaling flags. See the ffmpeg-scaler manual for the complete list of
           values. If not explicitly specified the filter applies the default flags.

       param0, param1
           Set libswscale input parameters for scaling algorithms that need them. See the ffmpeg-
           scaler manual for the complete documentation. If not explicitly specified the filter
           applies empty parameters.

       size, s
           Set the video size. For the syntax of this option, check the "Video size" section in
           the ffmpeg-utils manual.

       in_color_matrix
       out_color_matrix
           Set in/output YCbCr color space type.

           This allows the autodetected value to be overridden as well as allows forcing a
           specific value used for the output and encoder.

           If not specified, the color space type depends on the pixel format.

           Possible values:

           auto
               Choose automatically.

           bt709
               Format conforming to International Telecommunication Union (ITU) Recommendation
               BT.709.

           fcc Set color space conforming to the United States Federal Communications Commission
               (FCC) Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Title 47 (2003) 73.682 (a).

           bt601
               Set color space conforming to:

               •   ITU Radiocommunication Sector (ITU-R) Recommendation BT.601

               •   ITU-R Rec. BT.470-6 (1998) Systems B, B1, and G

               •   Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers (SMPTE) ST 170:2004

           smpte240m
               Set color space conforming to SMPTE ST 240:1999.

       in_range
       out_range
           Set in/output YCbCr sample range.

           This allows the autodetected value to be overridden as well as allows forcing a
           specific value used for the output and encoder. If not specified, the range depends on
           the pixel format. Possible values:

           auto
               Choose automatically.

           jpeg/full/pc
               Set full range (0-255 in case of 8-bit luma).

           mpeg/tv
               Set "MPEG" range (16-235 in case of 8-bit luma).

       force_original_aspect_ratio
           Enable decreasing or increasing output video width or height if necessary to keep the
           original aspect ratio. Possible values:

           disable
               Scale the video as specified and disable this feature.

           decrease
               The output video dimensions will automatically be decreased if needed.

           increase
               The output video dimensions will automatically be increased if needed.

           One useful instance of this option is that when you know a specific device's maximum
           allowed resolution, you can use this to limit the output video to that, while
           retaining the aspect ratio. For example, device A allows 1280x720 playback, and your
           video is 1920x800. Using this option (set it to decrease) and specifying 1280x720 to
           the command line makes the output 1280x533.

           Please note that this is a different thing than specifying -1 for w or h, you still
           need to specify the output resolution for this option to work.

       The values of the w and h options are expressions containing the following constants:

       in_w
       in_h
           The input width and height

       iw
       ih  These are the same as in_w and in_h.

       out_w
       out_h
           The output (scaled) width and height

       ow
       oh  These are the same as out_w and out_h

       a   The same as iw / ih

       sar input sample aspect ratio

       dar The input display aspect ratio. Calculated from "(iw / ih) * sar".

       hsub
       vsub
           horizontal and vertical input chroma subsample values. For example for the pixel
           format "yuv422p" hsub is 2 and vsub is 1.

       ohsub
       ovsub
           horizontal and vertical output chroma subsample values. For example for the pixel
           format "yuv422p" hsub is 2 and vsub is 1.

       Examples

       •   Scale the input video to a size of 200x100

                   scale=w=200:h=100

           This is equivalent to:

                   scale=200:100

           or:

                   scale=200x100

       •   Specify a size abbreviation for the output size:

                   scale=qcif

           which can also be written as:

                   scale=size=qcif

       •   Scale the input to 2x:

                   scale=w=2*iw:h=2*ih

       •   The above is the same as:

                   scale=2*in_w:2*in_h

       •   Scale the input to 2x with forced interlaced scaling:

                   scale=2*iw:2*ih:interl=1

       •   Scale the input to half size:

                   scale=w=iw/2:h=ih/2

       •   Increase the width, and set the height to the same size:

                   scale=3/2*iw:ow

       •   Seek Greek harmony:

                   scale=iw:1/PHI*iw
                   scale=ih*PHI:ih

       •   Increase the height, and set the width to 3/2 of the height:

                   scale=w=3/2*oh:h=3/5*ih

       •   Increase the size, making the size a multiple of the chroma subsample values:

                   scale="trunc(3/2*iw/hsub)*hsub:trunc(3/2*ih/vsub)*vsub"

       •   Increase the width to a maximum of 500 pixels, keeping the same aspect ratio as the
           input:

                   scale=w='min(500\, iw*3/2):h=-1'

       Commands

       This filter supports the following commands:

       width, w
       height, h
           Set the output video dimension expression.  The command accepts the same syntax of the
           corresponding option.

           If the specified expression is not valid, it is kept at its current value.

   scale_npp
       Use the NVIDIA Performance Primitives (libnpp) to perform scaling and/or pixel format
       conversion on CUDA video frames. Setting the output width and height works in the same way
       as for the scale filter.

       The following additional options are accepted:

       format
           The pixel format of the output CUDA frames. If set to the string "same" (the default),
           the input format will be kept. Note that automatic format negotiation and conversion
           is not yet supported for hardware frames

       interp_algo
           The interpolation algorithm used for resizing. One of the following:

           nn  Nearest neighbour.

               Supersampling

           lanczos

   scale2ref
       Scale (resize) the input video, based on a reference video.

       See the scale filter for available options, scale2ref supports the same but uses the
       reference video instead of the main input as basis. scale2ref also supports the following
       additional constants for the w and h options:

       main_w
       main_h
           The main input video's width and height

       main_a
           The same as main_w / main_h

       main_sar
           The main input video's sample aspect ratio

       main_dar, mdar
           The main input video's display aspect ratio. Calculated from "(main_w / main_h) *
           main_sar".

       main_hsub
       main_vsub
           The main input video's horizontal and vertical chroma subsample values.  For example
           for the pixel format "yuv422p" hsub is 2 and vsub is 1.

       Examples

                   'scale2ref[b][a];[a][b]overlay'

   selectivecolor
       Adjust cyan, magenta, yellow and black (CMYK) to certain ranges of colors (such as "reds",
       "yellows", "greens", "cyans", ...). The adjustment range is defined by the "purity" of the
       color (that is, how saturated it already is).

       This filter is similar to the Adobe Photoshop Selective Color tool.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       correction_method
           Select color correction method.

           Available values are:

           absolute
               Specified adjustments are applied "as-is" (added/subtracted to original pixel
               component value).

           relative
               Specified adjustments are relative to the original component value.

           Default is "absolute".

       reds
           Adjustments for red pixels (pixels where the red component is the maximum)

       yellows
           Adjustments for yellow pixels (pixels where the blue component is the minimum)

       greens
           Adjustments for green pixels (pixels where the green component is the maximum)

       cyans
           Adjustments for cyan pixels (pixels where the red component is the minimum)

       blues
           Adjustments for blue pixels (pixels where the blue component is the maximum)

       magentas
           Adjustments for magenta pixels (pixels where the green component is the minimum)

       whites
           Adjustments for white pixels (pixels where all components are greater than 128)

       neutrals
           Adjustments for all pixels except pure black and pure white

       blacks
           Adjustments for black pixels (pixels where all components are lesser than 128)

       psfile
           Specify a Photoshop selective color file (".asv") to import the settings from.

       All the adjustment settings (reds, yellows, ...) accept up to 4 space separated floating
       point adjustment values in the [-1,1] range, respectively to adjust the amount of cyan,
       magenta, yellow and black for the pixels of its range.

       Examples

       •   Increase cyan by 50% and reduce yellow by 33% in every green areas, and increase
           magenta by 27% in blue areas:

                   selectivecolor=greens=.5 0 -.33 0:blues=0 .27

       •   Use a Photoshop selective color preset:

                   selectivecolor=psfile=MySelectiveColorPresets/Misty.asv

   separatefields
       The "separatefields" takes a frame-based video input and splits each frame into its
       components fields, producing a new half height clip with twice the frame rate and twice
       the frame count.

       This filter use field-dominance information in frame to decide which of each pair of
       fields to place first in the output.  If it gets it wrong use setfield filter before
       "separatefields" filter.

   setdar, setsar
       The "setdar" filter sets the Display Aspect Ratio for the filter output video.

       This is done by changing the specified Sample (aka Pixel) Aspect Ratio, according to the
       following equation:

               <DAR> = <HORIZONTAL_RESOLUTION> / <VERTICAL_RESOLUTION> * <SAR>

       Keep in mind that the "setdar" 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.

       The "setsar" filter sets the Sample (aka Pixel) Aspect Ratio for the filter output video.

       Note that as a consequence of the application of this filter, the output display aspect
       ratio will change according to the equation above.

       Keep in mind that the sample aspect ratio set by the "setsar" filter may be changed by
       later filters in the filterchain, e.g. if another "setsar" or a "setdar" filter is
       applied.

       It accepts the following parameters:

       r, ratio, dar ("setdar" only), sar ("setsar" only)
           Set the aspect ratio used by the filter.

           The parameter can be a floating point number string, an expression, or a string of the
           form num:den, where num and den are the numerator and denominator of the aspect ratio.
           If the parameter is not specified, it is assumed the value "0".  In case the form
           "num:den" is used, the ":" character should be escaped.

       max Set the maximum integer value to use for expressing numerator and denominator when
           reducing the expressed aspect ratio to a rational.  Default value is 100.

       The parameter sar is an expression containing the following constants:

       E, PI, PHI
           These are approximated values for the mathematical constants e (Euler's number), pi
           (Greek pi), and phi (the golden ratio).

       w, h
           The input width and height.

       a   These are the same as w / h.

       sar The input sample aspect ratio.

       dar The input display aspect ratio. It is the same as (w / h) * sar.

       hsub, vsub
           Horizontal and vertical chroma subsample values. For example, for the pixel format
           "yuv422p" hsub is 2 and vsub is 1.

       Examples

       •   To change the display aspect ratio to 16:9, specify one of the following:

                   setdar=dar=1.77777
                   setdar=dar=16/9

       •   To change the sample aspect ratio to 10:11, specify:

                   setsar=sar=10/11

       •   To set a display aspect ratio of 16:9, and specify a maximum integer value of 1000 in
           the aspect ratio reduction, use the command:

                   setdar=ratio=16/9:max=1000

   setfield
       Force field for the output video frame.

       The "setfield" filter marks the interlace type field for the output frames. It does not
       change the input frame, but only sets the corresponding property, which affects how the
       frame is treated by following filters (e.g. "fieldorder" or "yadif").

       The filter accepts the following options:

       mode
           Available values are:

           auto
               Keep the same field property.

           bff Mark the frame as bottom-field-first.

           tff Mark the frame as top-field-first.

           prog
               Mark the frame as progressive.

       format frames.

       It accepts the following option:

       s   Set the size of the box used to represent one palette color entry. Default is 30 (for
           a "30x30" pixel box).

   shuffleframes
       Reorder and/or duplicate and/or drop video frames.

       It accepts the following parameters:

       mapping
           Set the destination indexes of input frames.  This is space or '|' separated list of
           indexes that maps input frames to output frames. Number of indexes also sets maximal
           value that each index may have.  '-1' index have special meaning and that is to drop
           frame.

       The first frame has the index 0. The default is to keep the input unchanged.

       Examples

       •   Swap second and third frame of every three frames of the input:

                   ffmpeg -i INPUT -vf "shuffleframes=0 2 1" OUTPUT

       •   Swap 10th and 1st frame of every ten frames of the input:

       out stat specify an additional form of image analysis.  out output video with the
           specified type of pixel highlighted.

           Both options accept the following values:

           tout
               Identify temporal outliers pixels. A temporal outlier is a pixel unlike the

               common, but this pattern is uncommon in video digitized from an analog source.
               When it occurs in video that results from the digitization of an analog source it
               can indicate concealment from a dropout compensator.

           brng
               Identify pixels that fall outside of legal broadcast range.

       color, c
           Set the highlight color for the out option. The default color is yellow.

           that will be replaced with the input number. If no filename is specified, no output
           will be written. This is the default.

       format
           Choose the output format.

           Available values are:

           Set the minimum relation, that matching frames to all frames must have.  The option
           value must be a double value between 0 and 1. The default value is 0.5.

       Examples

       •   To calculate the signature of an input video and store it in signature.bin:

                   ffmpeg -i input.mkv -vf signature=filename=signature.bin -map 0:v -f null -

       •   To detect whether two videos match and store the signatures in XML format in

       Blur the input video without impacting the outlines.

       It accepts the following options:

       luma_radius, lr
           Set the luma radius. The option value must be a float number in the range [0.1,5.0]
           that specifies the variance of the gaussian filter used to blur the image (slower if
           larger). Default value is 1.0.

       luma_strength, ls
           Set the luma strength. The option value must be a float number in the range [-1.0,1.0]
           that configures the blurring. A value included in [0.0,1.0] will blur the image

           blurred or not. The option value must be an integer in the range [-30,30]. A value of
           0 will filter all the image, a value included in [0,30] will filter flat areas and a
           value included in [-30,0] will filter edges. Default value is luma_threshold.

       If a chroma option is not explicitly set, the corresponding luma value is set.

   ssim
       Obtain the SSIM (Structural SImilarity Metric) between two input videos.

       This filter takes in input two input videos, the first input is considered the "main"
       source and is passed unchanged to the output. The second input is used as a "reference"
       video for computing the SSIM.

       Both video inputs must have the same resolution and pixel format for this filter to work
       correctly. Also it assumes that both inputs have the same number of frames, which are
       compared one by one.

       The filter stores the calculated SSIM of each frame.

       The description of the accepted parameters follows.

       stats_file, f
           If specified the filter will use the named file to save the SSIM of each individual
           frame. When filename equals "-" the data is sent to standard output.

       The file printed if stats_file is selected, contains a sequence of key/value pairs of the
       form key:value for each compared couple of frames.

       A description of each shown parameter follows:

       n   sequential number of the input frame, starting from 1

       Y, U, V, R, G, B
           SSIM of the compared frames for the component specified by the suffix.

       All SSIM of the compared frames for the whole frame.

       dB  Same as above but in dB representation.

       This filter also supports the framesync options.

       For example:

               movie=ref_movie.mpg, setpts=PTS-STARTPTS [main];
               [main][ref] ssim="stats_file=stats.log" [out]

       On this example the input file being processed is compared with the reference file
       ref_movie.mpg. The SSIM of each individual frame is stored in stats.log.

       Another example with both psnr and ssim at same time:

               ffmpeg -i main.mpg -i ref.mpg -lavfi  "ssim;[0:v][1:v]psnr" -f null -

                   stereo3d=sbsl:aybd

       •   Convert input video from above below (left eye above, right eye below) to side by side
           crosseye.

                   stereo3d=abl:sbsr

   streamselect, astreamselect
       Select video or audio streams.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       inputs
           Set number of inputs. Default is 2.

       map Set input indexes to remap to outputs.

       Commands

       The "streamselect" and "astreamselect" filter supports the following commands:

       map Set input indexes to remap to outputs.

       Examples

       •   Select first 5 seconds 1st stream and rest of time 2nd stream:

                   sendcmd='5.0 streamselect map 1',streamselect=inputs=2:map=0

       •   Same as above, but for audio:

                   asendcmd='5.0 astreamselect map 1',astreamselect=inputs=2:map=0

   sobel
       Apply sobel operator to input video stream.

       The filter accepts the following option:

       planes
           Set which planes will be processed, unprocessed planes will be copied.  By default
           value 0xf, all planes will be processed.

       scale
           Set value which will be multiplied with filtered result.

       delta
           Set value which will be added to filtered result.

   spp
       Apply a simple postprocessing filter that compresses and decompresses the image at several
       (or - in the case of quality level 6 - all) shifts and average the results.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       quality
           Set quality. This option defines the number of levels for averaging. It accepts an
           integer in the range 0-6. If set to 0, the filter will have no effect. A value of 6
           means the higher quality. For each increment of that value the speed drops by a factor
           of approximately 2.  Default value is 3.

       qp  Force a constant quantization parameter. If not set, the filter will use the QP from
           the video stream (if available).

       mode
           Set thresholding mode. Available modes are:

           hard
               Set hard thresholding (default).

           soft
               Set soft thresholding (better de-ringing effect, but likely blurrier).

       use_bframe_qp
           Enable the use of the QP from the B-Frames if set to 1. Using this option may cause
           flicker since the B-Frames have often larger QP. Default is 0 (not enabled).

   subtitles
       Draw subtitles on top of input video using the libass library.

       To enable compilation of this filter you need to configure FFmpeg with "--enable-libass".
       This filter also requires a build with libavcodec and libavformat to convert the passed
       subtitles file to ASS (Advanced Substation Alpha) subtitles format.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       filename, f
           Set the filename of the subtitle file to read. It must be specified.

       original_size
           Specify the size of the original video, the video for which the ASS file was composed.
           For the syntax of this option, check the "Video size" section in the ffmpeg-utils
           manual.  Due to a misdesign in ASS aspect ratio arithmetic, this is necessary to
           correctly scale the fonts if the aspect ratio has been changed.

       fontsdir
           Set a directory path containing fonts that can be used by the filter.  These fonts
           will be used in addition to whatever the font provider uses.

       alpha
           Process alpha channel, by default alpha channel is untouched.

       charenc
           Set subtitles input character encoding. "subtitles" filter only. Only useful if not
           UTF-8.

       stream_index, si
           Set subtitles stream index. "subtitles" filter only.

       force_style
           Override default style or script info parameters of the subtitles. It accepts a string
           containing ASS style format "KEY=VALUE" couples separated by ",".

       If the first key is not specified, it is assumed that the first value specifies the
       filename.

       For example, to render the file sub.srt on top of the input video, use the command:

               subtitles=sub.srt

       which is equivalent to:

               subtitles=filename=sub.srt

       To render the default subtitles stream from file video.mkv, use:

               subtitles=video.mkv

       To render the second subtitles stream from that file, use:

               subtitles=video.mkv:si=1

       To make the subtitles stream from sub.srt appear in transparent green "DejaVu Serif", use:

               subtitles=sub.srt:force_style='FontName=DejaVu Serif,PrimaryColour=&HAA00FF00'

   super2xsai
       Scale the input by 2x and smooth using the Super2xSaI (Scale and Interpolate) pixel art
       scaling algorithm.

       Useful for enlarging pixel art images without reducing sharpness.

   swaprect
       Swap two rectangular objects in video.

       This filter accepts the following options:

       w   Set object width.

       h   Set object height.

       x1  Set 1st rect x coordinate.

       y1  Set 1st rect y coordinate.

       x2  Set 2nd rect x coordinate.

       y2  Set 2nd rect y coordinate.

           All expressions are evaluated once for each frame.

       The all options are expressions containing the following constants:

       w
       h   The input width and height.

       a   same as w / h

       sar input sample aspect ratio

       dar input display aspect ratio, it is the same as (w / h) * sar

       n   The number of the input frame, starting from 0.

       t   The timestamp expressed in seconds. It's NAN if the input timestamp is unknown.

       pos the position in the file of the input frame, NAN if unknown

   swapuv
       Swap U & V plane.

   telecine
       Apply telecine process to the video.

       This filter accepts the following options:

       first_field
           top, t
               top field first

           bottom, b
               bottom field first The default value is "top".

       pattern
           A string of numbers representing the pulldown pattern you wish to apply.  The default
           value is 23.

               Some typical patterns:

               NTSC output (30i):
               27.5p: 32222
               24p: 23 (classic)
               24p: 2332 (preferred)
               20p: 33
               18p: 334
               16p: 3444

               PAL output (25i):
               27.5p: 12222
               24p: 222222222223 ("Euro pulldown")
               16.67p: 33
               16p: 33333334

   threshold
       Apply threshold effect to video stream.

       This filter needs four video streams to perform thresholding.  First stream is stream we
       are filtering.  Second stream is holding threshold values, third stream is holding min
       values, and last, fourth stream is holding max values.

       The filter accepts the following option:

       planes
           Set which planes will be processed, unprocessed planes will be copied.  By default
           value 0xf, all planes will be processed.

       For example if first stream pixel's component value is less then threshold value of pixel
       component from 2nd threshold stream, third stream value will picked, otherwise fourth
       stream pixel component value will be picked.

       Using color source filter one can perform various types of thresholding:

       Examples

       •   Binary threshold, using gray color as threshold:

                   ffmpeg -i 320x240.avi -f lavfi -i color=gray -f lavfi -i color=black -f lavfi -i color=white -lavfi threshold output.avi

       •   Inverted binary threshold, using gray color as threshold:

                   ffmpeg -i 320x240.avi -f lavfi -i color=gray -f lavfi -i color=white -f lavfi -i color=black -lavfi threshold output.avi

       •   Truncate binary threshold, using gray color as threshold:

                   ffmpeg -i 320x240.avi -f lavfi -i color=gray -i 320x240.avi -f lavfi -i color=gray -lavfi threshold output.avi

       •   Threshold to zero, using gray color as threshold:

                   ffmpeg -i 320x240.avi -f lavfi -i color=gray -f lavfi -i color=white -i 320x240.avi -lavfi threshold output.avi

       •   Inverted threshold to zero, using gray color as threshold:

                   ffmpeg -i 320x240.avi -f lavfi -i color=gray -i 320x240.avi -f lavfi -i color=white -lavfi threshold output.avi

   thumbnail
       Select the most representative frame in a given sequence of consecutive frames.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       n   Set the frames batch size to analyze; in a set of n frames, the filter will pick one
           of them, and then handle the next batch of n frames until the end. Default is 100.

       Since the filter keeps track of the whole frames sequence, a bigger n value will result in
       a higher memory usage, so a high value is not recommended.

       Examples

       •   Extract one picture each 50 frames:

                   thumbnail=50

       •   Complete example of a thumbnail creation with ffmpeg:

                   ffmpeg -i in.avi -vf thumbnail,scale=300:200 -frames:v 1 out.png

   tile
       Tile several successive frames together.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       layout
           Set the grid size (i.e. the number of lines and columns). For the syntax of this
           option, check the "Video size" section in the ffmpeg-utils manual.

       nb_frames
           Set the maximum number of frames to render in the given area. It must be less than or
           equal to wxh. The default value is 0, meaning all the area will be used.

       margin
           Set the outer border margin in pixels.

       padding
           Set the inner border thickness (i.e. the number of pixels between frames). For more
           advanced padding options (such as having different values for the edges), refer to the
           pad video filter.

       color
           Specify the color of the unused area. For the syntax of this option, check the "Color"
           section in the ffmpeg-utils manual. The default value of color is "black".

       Examples

       •   Produce 8x8 PNG tiles of all keyframes (-skip_frame nokey) in a movie:

                   ffmpeg -skip_frame nokey -i file.avi -vf 'scale=128:72,tile=8x8' -an -vsync 0 keyframes%03d.png

           The -vsync 0 is necessary to prevent ffmpeg from duplicating each output frame to
           accommodate the originally detected frame rate.

       •   Display 5 pictures in an area of "3x2" frames, with 7 pixels between them, and 2
           pixels of initial margin, using mixed flat and named options:

                   tile=3x2:nb_frames=5:padding=7:margin=2

   tinterlace
       Perform various types of temporal field interlacing.

       Frames are counted starting from 1, so the first input frame is considered odd.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       mode
           Specify the mode of the interlacing. This option can also be specified as a value
           alone. See below for a list of values for this option.

           Available values are:

           merge, 0
               Move odd frames into the upper field, even into the lower field, generating a
               double height frame at half frame rate.

                        ------> time
                       Input:
                       Frame 1         Frame 2         Frame 3         Frame 4

                       11111           22222           33333           44444

                       Output:
                       11111                           33333
                       22222                           44444

           Numeric values are deprecated but are accepted for backward compatibility reasons.

           Default mode is "merge".

       flags
           Specify flags influencing the filter process.

           Available value for flags is:

           low_pass_filter, vlfp
               Enable linear vertical low-pass filtering in the filter.  Vertical low-pass
               filtering is required when creating an interlaced destination from a progressive
               source which contains high-frequency vertical detail. Filtering will reduce
               interlace 'twitter' and Moire patterning.

           complex_filter, cvlfp
               Enable complex vertical low-pass filtering.  This will slightly less reduce
               interlace 'twitter' and Moire patterning but better retain detail and subjective
               sharpness impression.

           Vertical low-pass filtering can only be enabled for mode interleave_top and
           interleave_bottom.

   tonemap
       Tone map colors from different dynamic ranges.

       This filter expects data in single precision floating point, as it needs to operate on
       (and can output) out-of-range values. Another filter, such as zscale, is needed to convert
       the resulting frame to a usable format.

       The tonemapping algorithms implemented only work on linear light, so input data should be
       linearized beforehand (and possibly correctly tagged).

               ffmpeg -i INPUT -vf zscale=transfer=linear,tonemap=clip,zscale=transfer=bt709,format=yuv420p OUTPUT

       Options

       The filter accepts the following options.

       tonemap
           Set the tone map algorithm to use.

           Possible values are:

           none
               Do not apply any tone map, only desaturate overbright pixels.

           clip
               Hard-clip any out-of-range values. Use it for perfect color accuracy for in-range
               values, while distorting out-of-range values.

           linear
               Stretch the entire reference gamut to a linear multiple of the display.

           gamma
               Fit a logarithmic transfer between the tone curves.

           reinhard
               Preserve overall image brightness with a simple curve, using nonlinear contrast,
               which results in flattening details and degrading color accuracy.

           hable
               Preserve both dark and bright details better than reinhard, at the cost of
               slightly darkening everything. Use it when detail preservation is more important
               than color and brightness accuracy.

           mobius
               Smoothly map out-of-range values, while retaining contrast and colors for in-range
               material as much as possible. Use it when color accuracy is more important than
               detail preservation.

           Default is none.

       param
           Tune the tone mapping algorithm.

           This affects the following algorithms:

           none
               Ignored.

           linear
               Specifies the scale factor to use while stretching.  Default to 1.0.

           gamma
               Specifies the exponent of the function.  Default to 1.8.

           clip
               Specify an extra linear coefficient to multiply into the signal before clipping.
               Default to 1.0.

           reinhard
               Specify the local contrast coefficient at the display peak.  Default to 0.5, which
               means that in-gamut values will be about half as bright as when clipping.

           hable
               Ignored.

           mobius
               Specify the transition point from linear to mobius transform. Every value below
               this point is guaranteed to be mapped 1:1. The higher the value, the more accurate
               the result will be, at the cost of losing bright details.  Default to 0.3, which
               due to the steep initial slope still preserves in-range colors fairly accurately.

       desat
           Apply desaturation for highlights that exceed this level of brightness. The higher the
           parameter, the more color information will be preserved. This setting helps prevent
           unnaturally blown-out colors for super-highlights, by (smoothly) turning into white
           instead. This makes images feel more natural, at the cost of reducing information
           about out-of-range colors.

           The default of 2.0 is somewhat conservative and will mostly just apply to skies or
           directly sunlit surfaces. A setting of 0.0 disables this option.

           This option works only if the input frame has a supported color tag.

       peak
           Override signal/nominal/reference peak with this value. Useful when the embedded peak
           information in display metadata is not reliable or when tone mapping from a lower
           range to a higher range.

   transpose
       Transpose rows with columns in the input video and optionally flip it.

       It accepts the following parameters:

       dir Specify the transposition direction.

           Can assume the following values:

           0, 4, cclock_flip
               Rotate by 90 degrees counterclockwise and vertically flip (default), that is:

                       L.R     L.l
                       . . ->  . .
                       l.r     R.r

           1, 5, clock
               Rotate by 90 degrees clockwise, that is:

                       L.R     l.L
                       . . ->  . .
                       l.r     r.R

           2, 6, cclock
               Rotate by 90 degrees counterclockwise, that is:

                       L.R     R.r
                       . . ->  . .
                       l.r     L.l

           3, 7, clock_flip
               Rotate by 90 degrees clockwise and vertically flip, that is:

                       L.R     r.R
                       . . ->  . .
                       l.r     l.L

           For values between 4-7, the transposition is only done if the input video geometry is
           portrait and not landscape. These values are deprecated, the "passthrough" option
           should be used instead.

           Numerical values are deprecated, and should be dropped in favor of symbolic constants.

       passthrough
           Do not apply the transposition if the input geometry matches the one specified by the
           specified value. It accepts the following values:

           none
               Always apply transposition.

           portrait
               Preserve portrait geometry (when height >= width).

           landscape
               Preserve landscape geometry (when width >= height).

           Default value is "none".

       For example to rotate by 90 degrees clockwise and preserve portrait layout:

               transpose=dir=1:passthrough=portrait

       The command above can also be specified as:

               transpose=1:portrait

   trim
       Trim the input so that the output contains one continuous subpart of the input.

       It accepts the following parameters:

       start
           Specify the time of the start of the kept section, i.e. the frame with the timestamp
           start will be the first frame in the output.

       end Specify the time of the first frame that will be dropped, i.e. the frame immediately
           preceding the one with the timestamp end will be the last frame in the output.

       start_pts
           This is the same as start, except this option sets the start timestamp in timebase
           units instead of seconds.

       end_pts
           This is the same as end, except this option sets the end timestamp in timebase units
           instead of seconds.

       duration
           The maximum duration of the output in seconds.

       start_frame
           The number of the first frame that should be passed to the output.

       end_frame
           The number of the first frame that should be dropped.

       start, end, and duration are expressed as time duration specifications; see the Time
       duration section in the ffmpeg-utils(1) manual for the accepted syntax.

       Note that the first two sets of the start/end options and the duration option look at the
       frame timestamp, while the _frame variants simply count the frames that pass through the
       filter. Also note that this filter does not modify the timestamps. If you wish for the
       output timestamps to start at zero, insert a setpts filter after the trim filter.

       If multiple start or end options are set, this filter tries to be greedy and keep all the
       frames that match at least one of the specified constraints. To keep only the part that
       matches all the constraints at once, chain multiple trim filters.

       The defaults are such that all the input is kept. So it is possible to set e.g.  just the
       end values to keep everything before the specified time.

       Examples:

       •   Drop everything except the second minute of input:

                   ffmpeg -i INPUT -vf trim=60:120

       •   Keep only the first second:

                   ffmpeg -i INPUT -vf trim=duration=1

   unpremultiply
       Apply alpha unpremultiply effect to input video stream using first plane of second stream
       as alpha.

       Both streams must have same dimensions and same pixel format.

       The filter accepts the following option:

       planes
           Set which planes will be processed, unprocessed planes will be copied.  By default
           value 0xf, all planes will be processed.

           If the format has 1 or 2 components, then luma is bit 0.  If the format has 3 or 4
           components: for RGB formats bit 0 is green, bit 1 is blue and bit 2 is red; for YUV
           formats bit 0 is luma, bit 1 is chroma-U and bit 2 is chroma-V.  If present, the alpha
           channel is always the last bit.

       inplace
           Do not require 2nd input for processing, instead use alpha plane from input stream.

   unsharp
       Sharpen or blur the input video.

       It accepts the following parameters:

       luma_msize_x, lx
           Set the luma matrix horizontal size. It must be an odd integer between 3 and 23. The
           default value is 5.

       luma_msize_y, ly
           Set the luma matrix vertical size. It must be an odd integer between 3 and 23. The
           default value is 5.

       luma_amount, la
           Set the luma effect strength. It must be a floating point number, reasonable values
           lay between -1.5 and 1.5.

           Negative values will blur the input video, while positive values will sharpen it, a
           value of zero will disable the effect.

           Default value is 1.0.

       chroma_msize_x, cx
           Set the chroma matrix horizontal size. It must be an odd integer between 3 and 23. The
           default value is 5.

       chroma_msize_y, cy
           Set the chroma matrix vertical size. It must be an odd integer between 3 and 23. The
           default value is 5.

       chroma_amount, ca
           Set the chroma effect strength. It must be a floating point number, reasonable values
           lay between -1.5 and 1.5.

           Negative values will blur the input video, while positive values will sharpen it, a
           value of zero will disable the effect.

           Default value is 0.0.

       opencl
           If set to 1, specify using OpenCL capabilities, only available if FFmpeg was
           configured with "--enable-opencl". Default value is 0.

       All parameters are optional and default to the equivalent of the string '5:5:1.0:5:5:0.0'.

       Examples

       •   Apply strong luma sharpen effect:

                   unsharp=luma_msize_x=7:luma_msize_y=7:luma_amount=2.5

       •   Apply a strong blur of both luma and chroma parameters:

                   unsharp=7:7:-2:7:7:-2

   uspp
       Apply ultra slow/simple postprocessing filter that compresses and decompresses the image
       at several (or - in the case of quality level 8 - all) shifts and average the results.

       The way this differs from the behavior of spp is that uspp actually encodes & decodes each
       case with libavcodec Snow, whereas spp uses a simplified intra only 8x8 DCT similar to
       MJPEG.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       quality
           Set quality. This option defines the number of levels for averaging. It accepts an
           integer in the range 0-8. If set to 0, the filter will have no effect. A value of 8
           means the higher quality. For each increment of that value the speed drops by a factor
           of approximately 2.  Default value is 3.

       qp  Force a constant quantization parameter. If not set, the filter will use the QP from
           the video stream (if available).

   vaguedenoiser
       Apply a wavelet based denoiser.

       It transforms each frame from the video input into the wavelet domain, using Cohen-
       Daubechies-Feauveau 9/7. Then it applies some filtering to the obtained coefficients. It
       does an inverse wavelet transform after.  Due to wavelet properties, it should give a nice
       smoothed result, and reduced noise, without blurring picture features.

       This filter accepts the following options:

       threshold
           The filtering strength. The higher, the more filtered the video will be.  Hard
           thresholding can use a higher threshold than soft thresholding before the video looks
           overfiltered. Default value is 2.

       method
           The filtering method the filter will use.

           It accepts the following values:

           hard
               All values under the threshold will be zeroed.

           soft
               All values under the threshold will be zeroed. All values above will be reduced by
               the threshold.

           garrote
               Scales or nullifies coefficients - intermediary between (more) soft and (less)
               hard thresholding.

           Default is garrote.

       nsteps
           Number of times, the wavelet will decompose the picture. Picture can't be decomposed
           beyond a particular point (typically, 8 for a 640x480 frame - as 2^9 = 512 > 480).
           Valid values are integers between 1 and 32. Default value is 6.

       percent
           Partial of full denoising (limited coefficients shrinking), from 0 to 100. Default
           value is 85.

       planes
           A list of the planes to process. By default all planes are processed.

   vectorscope
       Display 2 color component values in the two dimensional graph (which is called a
       vectorscope).

       This filter accepts the following options:

       mode, m
           Set vectorscope mode.

           It accepts the following values:

           gray
               Gray values are displayed on graph, higher brightness means more pixels have same
               component color value on location in graph. This is the default mode.

           color
               Gray values are displayed on graph. Surrounding pixels values which are not
               present in video frame are drawn in gradient of 2 color components which are set
               by option "x" and "y". The 3rd color component is static.

           color2
               Actual color components values present in video frame are displayed on graph.

           color3
               Similar as color2 but higher frequency of same values "x" and "y" on graph
               increases value of another color component, which is luminance by default values
               of "x" and "y".

           color4
               Actual colors present in video frame are displayed on graph. If two different
               colors map to same position on graph then color with higher value of component not
               present in graph is picked.

           color5
               Gray values are displayed on graph. Similar to "color" but with 3rd color
               component picked from radial gradient.

       x   Set which color component will be represented on X-axis. Default is 1.

       y   Set which color component will be represented on Y-axis. Default is 2.

       intensity, i
           Set intensity, used by modes: gray, color, color3 and color5 for increasing brightness
           of color component which represents frequency of (X, Y) location in graph.

       envelope, e
           none
               No envelope, this is default.

           instant
               Instant envelope, even darkest single pixel will be clearly highlighted.

           peak
               Hold maximum and minimum values presented in graph over time. This way you can
               still spot out of range values without constantly looking at vectorscope.

           peak+instant
               Peak and instant envelope combined together.

       graticule, g
           Set what kind of graticule to draw.

           none
           green
           color
       opacity, o
           Set graticule opacity.

       flags, f
           Set graticule flags.

           white
               Draw graticule for white point.

           black
               Draw graticule for black point.

           name
               Draw color points short names.

       bgopacity, b
           Set background opacity.

       lthreshold, l
           Set low threshold for color component not represented on X or Y axis.  Values lower
           than this value will be ignored. Default is 0.  Note this value is multiplied with
           actual max possible value one pixel component can have. So for 8-bit input and low
           threshold value of 0.1 actual threshold is 0.1 * 255 = 25.

       hthreshold, h
           Set high threshold for color component not represented on X or Y axis.  Values higher
           than this value will be ignored. Default is 1.  Note this value is multiplied with
           actual max possible value one pixel component can have. So for 8-bit input and high
           threshold value of 0.9 actual threshold is 0.9 * 255 = 230.

       colorspace, c
           Set what kind of colorspace to use when drawing graticule.

           auto
           601
           709

           Default is auto.

   vidstabdetect
       Analyze video stabilization/deshaking. Perform pass 1 of 2, see vidstabtransform for pass
       2.

       This filter generates a file with relative translation and rotation transform information
       about subsequent frames, which is then used by the vidstabtransform filter.

       To enable compilation of this filter you need to configure FFmpeg with
       "--enable-libvidstab".

       This filter accepts the following options:

       result
           Set the path to the file used to write the transforms information.  Default value is
           transforms.trf.

       shakiness
           Set how shaky the video is and how quick the camera is. It accepts an integer in the
           range 1-10, a value of 1 means little shakiness, a value of 10 means strong shakiness.
           Default value is 5.

       accuracy
           Set the accuracy of the detection process. It must be a value in the range 1-15. A
           value of 1 means low accuracy, a value of 15 means high accuracy. Default value is 15.

       stepsize
           Set stepsize of the search process. The region around minimum is scanned with 1 pixel
           resolution. Default value is 6.

       mincontrast
           Set minimum contrast. Below this value a local measurement field is discarded. Must be
           a floating point value in the range 0-1. Default value is 0.3.

       tripod
           Set reference frame number for tripod mode.

           If enabled, the motion of the frames is compared to a reference frame in the filtered
           stream, identified by the specified number. The idea is to compensate all movements in
           a more-or-less static scene and keep the camera view absolutely still.

           If set to 0, it is disabled. The frames are counted starting from 1.

       show
           Show fields and transforms in the resulting frames. It accepts an integer in the range
           0-2. Default value is 0, which disables any visualization.

       Examples

       •   Use default values:

                   vidstabdetect

       •   Analyze strongly shaky movie and put the results in file mytransforms.trf:

                   vidstabdetect=shakiness=10:accuracy=15:result="mytransforms.trf"

       •   Visualize the result of internal transformations in the resulting video:

                   vidstabdetect=show=1

       •   Analyze a video with medium shakiness using ffmpeg:

                   ffmpeg -i input -vf vidstabdetect=shakiness=5:show=1 dummy.avi

   vidstabtransform
       Video stabilization/deshaking: pass 2 of 2, see vidstabdetect for pass 1.

       Read a file with transform information for each frame and apply/compensate them. Together
       with the vidstabdetect filter this can be used to deshake videos. See also
       <http://public.hronopik.de/vid.stab>. It is important to also use the unsharp filter, see
       below.

       To enable compilation of this filter you need to configure FFmpeg with
       "--enable-libvidstab".

       Options

       input
           Set path to the file used to read the transforms. Default value is transforms.trf.

       smoothing
           Set the number of frames (value*2 + 1) used for lowpass filtering the camera
           movements. Default value is 10.

           For example a number of 10 means that 21 frames are used (10 in the past and 10 in the
           future) to smoothen the motion in the video. A larger value leads to a smoother video,
           but limits the acceleration of the camera (pan/tilt movements). 0 is a special case
           where a static camera is simulated.

       optalgo
           Set the camera path optimization algorithm.

           Accepted values are:

           gauss
               gaussian kernel low-pass filter on camera motion (default)

           avg averaging on transformations

       maxshift
           Set maximal number of pixels to translate frames. Default value is -1, meaning no
           limit.

       maxangle
           Set maximal angle in radians (degree*PI/180) to rotate frames. Default value is -1,
           meaning no limit.

       crop
           Specify how to deal with borders that may be visible due to movement compensation.

           Available values are:

           keep
               keep image information from previous frame (default)

           black
               fill the border black

       invert
           Invert transforms if set to 1. Default value is 0.

       relative
           Consider transforms as relative to previous frame if set to 1, absolute if set to 0.
           Default value is 0.

       zoom
           Set percentage to zoom. A positive value will result in a zoom-in effect, a negative
           value in a zoom-out effect. Default value is 0 (no zoom).

       optzoom
           Set optimal zooming to avoid borders.

           Accepted values are:

           0   disabled

           1   optimal static zoom value is determined (only very strong movements will lead to
               visible borders) (default)

           2   optimal adaptive zoom value is determined (no borders will be visible), see
               zoomspeed

           Note that the value given at zoom is added to the one calculated here.

       zoomspeed
           Set percent to zoom maximally each frame (enabled when optzoom is set to 2). Range is
           from 0 to 5, default value is 0.25.

       interpol
           Specify type of interpolation.

           Available values are:

           no  no interpolation

           linear
               linear only horizontal

           bilinear
               linear in both directions (default)

           bicubic
               cubic in both directions (slow)

       tripod
           Enable virtual tripod mode if set to 1, which is equivalent to
           "relative=0:smoothing=0". Default value is 0.

           Use also "tripod" option of vidstabdetect.

       debug
           Increase log verbosity if set to 1. Also the detected global motions are written to
           the temporary file global_motions.trf. Default value is 0.

       Examples

       •   Use ffmpeg for a typical stabilization with default values:

                   ffmpeg -i inp.mpeg -vf vidstabtransform,unsharp=5:5:0.8:3:3:0.4 inp_stabilized.mpeg

           Note the use of the unsharp filter which is always recommended.

       •   Zoom in a bit more and load transform data from a given file:

                   vidstabtransform=zoom=5:input="mytransforms.trf"

       •   Smoothen the video even more:

                   vidstabtransform=smoothing=30

   vflip
       Flip the input video vertically.

       For example, to vertically flip a video with ffmpeg:

               ffmpeg -i in.avi -vf "vflip" out.avi

   vignette
       Make or reverse a natural vignetting effect.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       angle, a
           Set lens angle expression as a number of radians.

           The value is clipped in the "[0,PI/2]" range.

           Default value: "PI/5"

       x0
       y0  Set center coordinates expressions. Respectively "w/2" and "h/2" by default.

       mode
           Set forward/backward mode.

           Available modes are:

           forward
               The larger the distance from the central point, the darker the image becomes.

           backward
               The larger the distance from the central point, the brighter the image becomes.
               This can be used to reverse a vignette effect, though there is no automatic
               detection to extract the lens angle and other settings (yet). It can also be used
               to create a burning effect.

           Default value is forward.

       eval
           Set evaluation mode for the expressions (angle, x0, y0).

           It accepts the following values:

           init
               Evaluate expressions only once during the filter initialization.

           frame
               Evaluate expressions for each incoming frame. This is way slower than the init
               mode since it requires all the scalers to be re-computed, but it allows advanced
               dynamic expressions.

           Default value is init.

       dither
           Set dithering to reduce the circular banding effects. Default is 1 (enabled).

       aspect
           Set vignette aspect. This setting allows one to adjust the shape of the vignette.
           Setting this value to the SAR of the input will make a rectangular vignetting
           following the dimensions of the video.

           Default is "1/1".

       Expressions

       The alpha, x0 and y0 expressions can contain the following parameters.

       w
       h   input width and height

       n   the number of input frame, starting from 0

       pts the PTS (Presentation TimeStamp) time of the filtered video frame, expressed in TB
           units, NAN if undefined

       r   frame rate of the input video, NAN if the input frame rate is unknown

       t   the PTS (Presentation TimeStamp) of the filtered video frame, expressed in seconds,
           NAN if undefined

       tb  time base of the input video

       Examples

       •   Apply simple strong vignetting effect:

                   vignette=PI/4

       •   Make a flickering vignetting:

                   vignette='PI/4+random(1)*PI/50':eval=frame

   vmafmotion
       Obtain the average vmaf motion score of a video.  It is one of the component filters of
       VMAF.

       The obtained average motion score is printed through the logging system.

       In the below example the input file ref.mpg is being processed and score is computed.

               ffmpeg -i ref.mpg -lavfi vmafmotion -f null -

   vstack
       Stack input videos vertically.

       All streams must be of same pixel format and of same width.

       Note that this filter is faster than using overlay and pad filter to create same output.

       The filter accept the following option:

       inputs
           Set number of input streams. Default is 2.

       shortest
           If set to 1, force the output to terminate when the shortest input terminates. Default
           value is 0.

   w3fdif
       Deinterlace the input video ("w3fdif" stands for "Weston 3 Field Deinterlacing Filter").

       Based on the process described by Martin Weston for BBC R&D, and implemented based on the
       de-interlace algorithm written by Jim Easterbrook for BBC R&D, the Weston 3 field
       deinterlacing filter uses filter coefficients calculated by BBC R&D.

       There are two sets of filter coefficients, so called "simple": and "complex". Which set of
       filter coefficients is used can be set by passing an optional parameter:

       filter
           Set the interlacing filter coefficients. Accepts one of the following values:

           simple
               Simple filter coefficient set.

           complex
               More-complex filter coefficient set.

           Default value is complex.

       deint
           Specify which frames to deinterlace. Accept one of the following values:

           all Deinterlace all frames,

           interlaced
               Only deinterlace frames marked as interlaced.

           Default value is all.

   waveform
       Video waveform monitor.

       The waveform monitor plots color component intensity. By default luminance only. Each
       column of the waveform corresponds to a column of pixels in the source video.

       It accepts the following options:

       mode, m
           Can be either "row", or "column". Default is "column".  In row mode, the graph on the
           left side represents color component value 0 and the right side represents value =
           255. In column mode, the top side represents color component value = 0 and bottom side
           represents value = 255.

       intensity, i
           Set intensity. Smaller values are useful to find out how many values of the same
           luminance are distributed across input rows/columns.  Default value is 0.04. Allowed
           range is [0, 1].

       mirror, r
           Set mirroring mode. 0 means unmirrored, 1 means mirrored.  In mirrored mode, higher
           values will be represented on the left side for "row" mode and at the top for "column"
           mode. Default is 1 (mirrored).

       display, d
           Set display mode.  It accepts the following values:

           overlay
               Presents information identical to that in the "parade", except that the graphs
               representing color components are superimposed directly over one another.

               This display mode makes it easier to spot relative differences or similarities in
               overlapping areas of the color components that are supposed to be identical, such
               as neutral whites, grays, or blacks.

           stack
               Display separate graph for the color components side by side in "row" mode or one
               below the other in "column" mode.

           parade
               Display separate graph for the color components side by side in "column" mode or
               one below the other in "row" mode.

               Using this display mode makes it easy to spot color casts in the highlights and
               shadows of an image, by comparing the contours of the top and the bottom graphs of
               each waveform. Since whites, grays, and blacks are characterized by exactly equal
               amounts of red, green, and blue, neutral areas of the picture should display three
               waveforms of roughly equal width/height. If not, the correction is easy to perform
               by making level adjustments the three waveforms.

           Default is "stack".

       components, c
           Set which color components to display. Default is 1, which means only luminance or red
           color component if input is in RGB colorspace. If is set for example to 7 it will
           display all 3 (if) available color components.

       envelope, e
           none
               No envelope, this is default.

           instant
               Instant envelope, minimum and maximum values presented in graph will be easily
               visible even with small "step" value.

           peak
               Hold minimum and maximum values presented in graph across time. This way you can
               still spot out of range values without constantly looking at waveforms.

           peak+instant
               Peak and instant envelope combined together.

       filter, f
           lowpass
               No filtering, this is default.

           flat
               Luma and chroma combined together.

           aflat
               Similar as above, but shows difference between blue and red chroma.

           chroma
               Displays only chroma.

           color
               Displays actual color value on waveform.

           acolor
               Similar as above, but with luma showing frequency of chroma values.

       graticule, g
           Set which graticule to display.

           none
               Do not display graticule.

           green
               Display green graticule showing legal broadcast ranges.

       opacity, o
           Set graticule opacity.

       flags, fl
           Set graticule flags.

           numbers
               Draw numbers above lines. By default enabled.

           dots
               Draw dots instead of lines.

       scale, s
           Set scale used for displaying graticule.

           digital
           millivolts
           ire

           Default is digital.

       bgopacity, b
           Set background opacity.

   weave, doubleweave
       The "weave" takes a field-based video input and join each two sequential fields into
       single frame, producing a new double height clip with half the frame rate and half the
       frame count.

       The "doubleweave" works same as "weave" but without halving frame rate and frame count.

       It accepts the following option:

       first_field
           Set first field. Available values are:

           top, t
               Set the frame as top-field-first.

           bottom, b
               Set the frame as bottom-field-first.

       Examples

       •   Interlace video using select and separatefields filter:

                   separatefields,select=eq(mod(n,4),0)+eq(mod(n,4),3),weave

   xbr
       Apply the xBR high-quality magnification filter which is designed for pixel art. It
       follows a set of edge-detection rules, see
       <http://www.libretro.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=134>.

       It accepts the following option:

       n   Set the scaling dimension: 2 for "2xBR", 3 for "3xBR" and 4 for "4xBR".  Default is 3.

   yadif
       Deinterlace the input video ("yadif" means "yet another deinterlacing filter").

       It accepts the following parameters:

       mode
           The interlacing mode to adopt. It accepts one of the following values:

           0, send_frame
               Output one frame for each frame.

           1, send_field
               Output one frame for each field.

           2, send_frame_nospatial
               Like "send_frame", but it skips the spatial interlacing check.

           3, send_field_nospatial
               Like "send_field", but it skips the spatial interlacing check.

           The default value is "send_frame".

       parity
           The picture field parity assumed for the input interlaced video. It accepts one of the
           following values:

           0, tff
               Assume the top field is first.

           1, bff
               Assume the bottom field is first.

           -1, auto
               Enable automatic detection of field parity.

           The default value is "auto".  If the interlacing is unknown or the decoder does not
           export this information, top field first will be assumed.

       deint
           Specify which frames to deinterlace. Accept one of the following values:

           0, all
               Deinterlace all frames.

           1, interlaced
               Only deinterlace frames marked as interlaced.

           The default value is "all".

   zoompan
       Apply Zoom & Pan effect.

       This filter accepts the following options:

       zoom, z
           Set the zoom expression. Default is 1.

       x
       y   Set the x and y expression. Default is 0.

       d   Set the duration expression in number of frames.  This sets for how many number of
           frames effect will last for single input image.

       s   Set the output image size, default is 'hd720'.

       fps Set the output frame rate, default is '25'.

       Each expression can contain the following constants:

       in_w, iw
           Input width.

       in_h, ih
           Input height.

       out_w, ow
           Output width.

       out_h, oh
           Output height.

       in  Input frame count.

       on  Output frame count.

       x
       y   Last calculated 'x' and 'y' position from 'x' and 'y' expression for current input
           frame.

       px
       py  'x' and 'y' of last output frame of previous input frame or 0 when there was not yet
           such frame (first input frame).

       zoom
           Last calculated zoom from 'z' expression for current input frame.

       pzoom
           Last calculated zoom of last output frame of previous input frame.

       a   Rational number: input width / input height

       sar sample aspect ratio

       dar display aspect ratio

       Examples

       •   Zoom-in up to 1.5 and pan at same time to some spot near center of picture:

                   zoompan=z='min(zoom+0.0015,1.5)':d=700:x='if(gte(zoom,1.5),x,x+1/a)':y='if(gte(zoom,1.5),y,y+1)':s=640x360

       •   Zoom-in up to 1.5 and pan always at center of picture:

                   zoompan=z='min(zoom+0.0015,1.5)':d=700:x='iw/2-(iw/zoom/2)':y='ih/2-(ih/zoom/2)'

       •   Same as above but without pausing:

                   zoompan=z='min(max(zoom,pzoom)+0.0015,1.5)':d=1:x='iw/2-(iw/zoom/2)':y='ih/2-(ih/zoom/2)'

   zscale
       Scale (resize) the input video, using the z.lib library:
       https://github.com/sekrit-twc/zimg.

       The zscale filter forces the output display aspect ratio to be the same as the input, by
       changing the output sample aspect ratio.

       If the input image format is different from the format requested by the next filter, the
       zscale filter will convert the input to the requested format.

       Options

       The filter accepts the following options.

       width, w
       height, h
           Set the output video dimension expression. Default value is the input dimension.

           If the width or w value is 0, the input width is used for the output. If the height or
           h value is 0, the input height is used for the output.

           If one and only one of the values is -n with n >= 1, the zscale filter will use a
           value that maintains the aspect ratio of the input image, calculated from the other
           specified dimension. After that it will, however, make sure that the calculated
           dimension is divisible by n and adjust the value if necessary.

           If both values are -n with n >= 1, the behavior will be identical to both values being
           set to 0 as previously detailed.

           See below for the list of accepted constants for use in the dimension expression.

VIDEO SOURCES

       Below is a description of the currently available video sources.

   buffer
       Buffer video frames, and make them available to the filter chain.

       This source is mainly intended for a programmatic use, in particular through the interface
       defined in libavfilter/vsrc_buffer.h.

       It accepts the following parameters:

       video_size
           Specify the size (width and height) of the buffered video frames. For the syntax of
           this option, check the "Video size" section in the ffmpeg-utils manual.

       width
           The input video width.

       height
           The input video height.

       pix_fmt
           A string representing the pixel format of the buffered video frames.  It may be a
           number corresponding to a pixel format, or a pixel format name.

       time_base
           Specify the timebase assumed by the timestamps of the buffered frames.

       frame_rate
           Specify the frame rate expected for the video stream.

       pixel_aspect, sar
           The sample (pixel) aspect ratio of the input video.

       sws_param
           Specify the optional parameters to be used for the scale filter which is automatically
           inserted when an input change is detected in the input size or format.

       hw_frames_ctx
           When using a hardware pixel format, this should be a reference to an AVHWFramesContext
           describing input frames.

       For example:

               buffer=width=320:height=240:pix_fmt=yuv410p:time_base=1/24:sar=1

       will instruct the source to accept video frames with size 320x240 and with format
       "yuv410p", assuming 1/24 as the timestamps timebase and square pixels (1:1 sample aspect
       ratio).  Since the pixel format with name "yuv410p" corresponds to the number 6 (check the
       enum AVPixelFormat definition in libavutil/pixfmt.h), this example corresponds to:

               buffer=size=320x240:pixfmt=6:time_base=1/24:pixel_aspect=1/1

       Alternatively, the options can be specified as a flat string, but this syntax is
       deprecated:

       width:height:pix_fmt:time_base.num:time_base.den:pixel_aspect.num:pixel_aspect.den[:sws_param]

   cellauto
       Create a pattern generated by an elementary cellular automaton.

       The initial state of the cellular automaton can be defined through the filename and
       pattern options. If such options are not specified an initial state is created randomly.

       At each new frame a new row in the video is filled with the result of the cellular
       automaton next generation. The behavior when the whole frame is filled is defined by the
       scroll option.

       This source accepts the following options:

       filename, f
           Read the initial cellular automaton state, i.e. the starting row, from the specified
           file.  In the file, each non-whitespace character is considered an alive cell, a
           newline will terminate the row, and further characters in the file will be ignored.

       pattern, p
           Read the initial cellular automaton state, i.e. the starting row, from the specified
           string.

           Each non-whitespace character in the string is considered an alive cell, a newline
           will terminate the row, and further characters in the string will be ignored.

       rate, r
           Set the video rate, that is the number of frames generated per second.  Default is 25.

       random_fill_ratio, ratio
           Set the random fill ratio for the initial cellular automaton row. It is a floating
           point number value ranging from 0 to 1, defaults to 1/PHI.

           This option is ignored when a file or a pattern is specified.

       random_seed, seed
           Set the seed for filling randomly the initial row, must be an integer included between
           0 and UINT32_MAX. If not specified, or if explicitly set to -1, the filter will try to
           use a good random seed on a best effort basis.

       rule
           Set the cellular automaton rule, it is a number ranging from 0 to 255.  Default value
           is 110.

       size, s
           Set the size of the output video. For the syntax of this option, check the "Video
           size" section in the ffmpeg-utils manual.

           If filename or pattern is specified, the size is set by default to the width of the
           specified initial state row, and the height is set to width * PHI.

           If size is set, it must contain the width of the specified pattern string, and the
           specified pattern will be centered in the larger row.

           If a filename or a pattern string is not specified, the size value defaults to
           "320x518" (used for a randomly generated initial state).

       scroll
           If set to 1, scroll the output upward when all the rows in the output have been
           already filled. If set to 0, the new generated row will be written over the top row
           just after the bottom row is filled.  Defaults to 1.

       start_full, full
           If set to 1, completely fill the output with generated rows before outputting the
           first frame.  This is the default behavior, for disabling set the value to 0.

       stitch
           If set to 1, stitch the left and right row edges together.  This is the default
           behavior, for disabling set the value to 0.

       Examples

       •   Read the initial state from pattern, and specify an output of size 200x400.

                   cellauto=f=pattern:s=200x400

       •   Generate a random initial row with a width of 200 cells, with a fill ratio of 2/3:

                   cellauto=ratio=2/3:s=200x200

       •   Create a pattern generated by rule 18 starting by a single alive cell centered on an
           initial row with width 100:

                   cellauto=p=@s=100x400:full=0:rule=18

       •   Specify a more elaborated initial pattern:

                   cellauto=p='@@ @ @@':s=100x400:full=0:rule=18

   coreimagesrc
       Video source generated on GPU using Apple's CoreImage API on OSX.

       This video source is a specialized version of the coreimage video filter.  Use a core
       image generator at the beginning of the applied filterchain to generate the content.

       The coreimagesrc video source accepts the following options:

       list_generators
           List all available generators along with all their respective options as well as
           possible minimum and maximum values along with the default values.

                   list_generators=true

       size, s
           Specify the size of the sourced video. For the syntax of this option, check the "Video
           size" section in the ffmpeg-utils manual.  The default value is "320x240".

       rate, r
           Specify the frame rate of the sourced video, as the number of frames generated per
           second. It has to be a string in the format frame_rate_num/frame_rate_den, an integer
           number, a floating point number or a valid video frame rate abbreviation. The default
           value is "25".

       sar Set the sample aspect ratio of the sourced video.

       duration, d
           Set the duration of the sourced video. See the Time duration section in the
           ffmpeg-utils(1) manual for the accepted syntax.

           If not specified, or the expressed duration is negative, the video is supposed to be
           generated forever.

       Additionally, all options of the coreimage video filter are accepted.  A complete
       filterchain can be used for further processing of the generated input without CPU-HOST
       transfer. See coreimage documentation and examples for details.

       Examples

       •   Use CIQRCodeGenerator to create a QR code for the FFmpeg homepage, given as complete
           and escaped command-line for Apple's standard bash shell:

                   ffmpeg -f lavfi -i coreimagesrc=s=100x100:filter=CIQRCodeGenerator@inputMessage=https\\\\\://FFmpeg.org/@inputCorrectionLevel=H -frames:v 1 QRCode.png

           This example is equivalent to the QRCode example of coreimage without the need for a
           nullsrc video source.

   mandelbrot
       Generate a Mandelbrot set fractal, and progressively zoom towards the point specified with
       start_x and start_y.

   mptestsrc
       Generate various test patterns, as generated by the MPlayer test filter.

       The size of the generated video is fixed, and is 256x256.  This source is useful in
       particular for testing encoding features.

       This source accepts the following options:

       rate, r
           Specify the frame rate of the sourced video, as the number of frames generated per
           second. It has to be a string in the format frame_rate_num/frame_rate_den, an integer
           number, a floating point number or a valid video frame rate abbreviation. The default
           value is "25".

       duration, d
           Set the duration of the sourced video. See the Time duration section in the
           ffmpeg-utils(1) manual for the accepted syntax.

           If not specified, or the expressed duration is negative, the video is supposed to be
           generated forever.

       test, t
           Set the number or the name of the test to perform. Supported tests are:

           dc_luma

           ring2
           all

           Default value is "all", which will cycle through the list of all tests.

       Some examples:

               mptestsrc=t=dc_luma

       will generate a "dc_luma" test pattern.

   frei0r_src
       Provide a frei0r source.

       To enable compilation of this filter you need to install the frei0r header and configure
       FFmpeg with "--enable-frei0r".

       This source accepts the following parameters:

       size
           The size of the video to generate. For the syntax of this option, check the "Video
           size" section in the ffmpeg-utils manual.

       framerate
           The framerate of the generated video. It may be a string of the form num/den or a
           frame rate abbreviation.

       filter_name
           The name to the frei0r source to load. For more information regarding frei0r and how
           to set the parameters, read the frei0r section in the video filters documentation.

       filter_params
           A '|'-separated list of parameters to pass to the frei0r source.

       For example, to generate a frei0r partik0l source with size 200x200 and frame rate 10
       which is overlaid on the overlay filter main input:

               frei0r_src=size=200x200:framerate=10:filter_name=partik0l:filter_params=1234 [overlay]; [in][overlay] overlay

   life
       Generate a life pattern.

       This source is based on a generalization of John Conway's life game.

       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.

       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 rule option
       allows one to specify the rule to adopt.

       This source accepts the following options:

       filename, f
           Set the file from which to read the initial grid state. In the file, each non-
           whitespace character is considered an alive cell, and newline is used to delimit the
           end of each row.

           If this option is not specified, the initial grid is generated randomly.

       rate, r
           Set the video rate, that is the number of frames generated per second.  Default is 25.

       random_fill_ratio, ratio
           Set the random fill ratio for the initial random grid. It is a floating point number
           value ranging from 0 to 1, defaults to 1/PHI.  It is ignored when a file is specified.

       random_seed, seed
           Set the seed for filling the initial random grid, must be an integer included between
           0 and UINT32_MAX. If not specified, or if explicitly set to -1, the filter will try to
           use a good random seed on a best effort basis.

       rule
           Set the life rule.

           A rule can be specified with a code of the kind "SNS/BNB", where NS and NB are
           sequences of numbers in the range 0-8, NS specifies the number of alive neighbor cells
           which make a live cell stay alive, and NB 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.

           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 =
           "(12<<9)+9" specifies a stay alive rule of 12 and a born rule of 9, which corresponds
           to "S23/B03".

           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.

       size, s
           Set the size of the output video. For the syntax of this option, check the "Video
           size" section in the ffmpeg-utils manual.

           If filename is specified, the size is set by default to the same size of the input
           file. If size is set, it must contain the size specified in the input file, and the
           initial grid defined in that file is centered in the larger resulting area.

           If a filename is not specified, the size value defaults to "320x240" (used for a
           randomly generated initial grid).

       stitch
           If set to 1, stitch the left and right grid edges together, and the top and bottom
           edges also. Defaults to 1.

       mold
           Set cell mold speed. If set, a dead cell will go from death_color to mold_color with a
           step of mold. mold can have a value from 0 to 255.

       life_color
           Set the color of living (or new born) cells.

       death_color
           Set the color of dead cells. If mold is set, this is the first color used to represent
           a dead cell.

       mold_color
           Set mold color, for definitely dead and moldy cells.

           For the syntax of these 3 color options, check the "Color" section in the ffmpeg-utils
           manual.

       Examples

       •   Read a grid from pattern, and center it on a grid of size 300x300 pixels:

                   life=f=pattern:s=300x300

       •   Generate a random grid of size 200x200, with a fill ratio of 2/3:

                   life=ratio=2/3:s=200x200

       •   Specify a custom rule for evolving a randomly generated grid:

                   life=rule=S14/B34

       •   Full example with slow death effect (mold) using ffplay:

                   ffplay -f lavfi life=s=300x200:mold=10:r=60:ratio=0.1:death_color=#C83232:life_color=#00ff00,scale=1200:800:flags=16

   allrgb, allyuv, color, haldclutsrc, nullsrc, rgbtestsrc, smptebars, smptehdbars, testsrc,
       testsrc2, yuvtestsrc
       The "allrgb" source returns frames of size 4096x4096 of all rgb colors.

       The "allyuv" source returns frames of size 4096x4096 of all yuv colors.

       The "color" source provides an uniformly colored input.

       The "haldclutsrc" source provides an identity Hald CLUT. See also haldclut filter.

       The "nullsrc" source returns unprocessed video frames. It is mainly useful to be employed
       in analysis / debugging tools, or as the source for filters which ignore the input data.

       The "rgbtestsrc" source generates an RGB test pattern useful for detecting RGB vs BGR
       issues. You should see a red, green and blue stripe from top to bottom.

       The "smptebars" source generates a color bars pattern, based on the SMPTE Engineering
       Guideline EG 1-1990.

       The "smptehdbars" source generates a color bars pattern, based on the SMPTE RP 219-2002.

       The "testsrc" source generates a test video pattern, showing a color pattern, a scrolling
       gradient and a timestamp. This is mainly intended for testing purposes.

       The "testsrc2" source is similar to testsrc, but supports more pixel formats instead of
       just "rgb24". This allows using it as an input for other tests without requiring a format
       conversion.

       The "yuvtestsrc" source generates an YUV test pattern. You should see a y, cb and cr
       stripe from top to bottom.

       The sources accept the following parameters:

       alpha
           Specify the alpha (opacity) of the background, only available in the "testsrc2"
           source. The value must be between 0 (fully transparent) and 255 (fully opaque, the
           default).

       color, c
           Specify the color of the source, only available in the "color" source. For the syntax
           of this option, check the "Color" section in the ffmpeg-utils manual.

       level
           Specify the level of the Hald CLUT, only available in the "haldclutsrc" source. A
           level of "N" generates a picture of "N*N*N" by "N*N*N" pixels to be used as identity
           matrix for 3D lookup tables. Each component is coded on a "1/(N*N)" scale.

       size, s
           Specify the size of the sourced video. For the syntax of this option, check the "Video
           size" section in the ffmpeg-utils manual.  The default value is "320x240".

           This option is not available with the "haldclutsrc" filter.

       rate, r
           Specify the frame rate of the sourced video, as the number of frames generated per
           second. It has to be a string in the format frame_rate_num/frame_rate_den, an integer
           number, a floating point number or a valid video frame rate abbreviation. The default
           value is "25".

       sar Set the sample aspect ratio of the sourced video.

       duration, d
           Set the duration of the sourced video. See the Time duration section in the
           ffmpeg-utils(1) manual for the accepted syntax.

           If not specified, or the expressed duration is negative, the video is supposed to be
           generated forever.

       decimals, n
           Set the number of decimals to show in the timestamp, only available in the "testsrc"
           source.

           The displayed timestamp value will correspond to the original timestamp value
           multiplied by the power of 10 of the specified value. Default value is 0.

       For example the following:

               testsrc=duration=5.3:size=qcif:rate=10

       will generate a video with a duration of 5.3 seconds, with size 176x144 and a frame rate
       of 10 frames per second.

       The following graph description will generate a red source with an opacity of 0.2, with
       size "qcif" and a frame rate of 10 frames per second.

               color=c=red@0.2:s=qcif:r=10

       If the input content is to be ignored, "nullsrc" can be used. The following command
       generates noise in the luminance plane by employing the "geq" filter:

               nullsrc=s=256x256, geq=random(1)*255:128:128

       Commands

       The "color" source supports the following commands:

       c, color
           Set the color of the created image. Accepts the same syntax of the corresponding color
           option.

VIDEO SINKS

       Below is a description of the currently available video sinks.

   buffersink
       Buffer video frames, and make them available to the end of the filter graph.

       This sink is mainly intended for programmatic use, in particular through the interface
       defined in libavfilter/buffersink.h or the options system.

       It accepts a pointer to an AVBufferSinkContext structure, which defines the incoming
       buffers' formats, to be passed as the opaque parameter to "avfilter_init_filter" for
       initialization.

   nullsink
       Null video sink: do absolutely nothing with the input video. It is mainly useful as a
       template and for use in analysis / debugging tools.

MULTIMEDIA FILTERS

       Below is a description of the currently available multimedia filters.

           Default is "replace".

   aphasemeter
       Convert input audio to a video output, displaying the audio phase.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       rate, r
           Set the output frame rate. Default value is 25.

       size, s
           Set the video size for the output. For the syntax of this option, check the "Video
           size" section in the ffmpeg-utils manual.  Default value is "800x400".

       rc
       gc
       bc  Specify the red, green, blue contrast. Default values are 2, 7 and 1.  Allowed range
           is "[0, 255]".

       mpc Set color which will be used for drawing median phase. If color is "none" which is
           default, no median phase value will be drawn.

       video
           Enable video output. Default is enabled.

       The filter also exports the frame metadata "lavfi.aphasemeter.phase" which represents mean
       phase of current audio frame. Value is in range "[-1, 1]".  The "-1" means left and right
       channels are completely out of phase and 1 means channels are in phase.

   avectorscope
       Convert input audio to a video output, representing the audio vector scope.

       The filter is used to measure the difference between channels of stereo audio stream. A
       monoaural signal, consisting of identical left and right signal, results in straight
       vertical line. Any stereo separation is visible as a deviation from this line, creating a
       Lissajous figure.  If the straight (or deviation from it) but horizontal line appears this
       indicates that the left and right channels are out of phase.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       mode, m
           Set the vectorscope mode.

           Available values are:

           lissajous
               Lissajous rotated by 45 degrees.

           lissajous_xy
               Same as above but not rotated.

           polar
               Shape resembling half of circle.

           Default value is lissajous.

       size, s
           Set the video size for the output. For the syntax of this option, check the "Video
           size" section in the ffmpeg-utils manual.  Default value is "400x400".

       rate, r
           Set the output frame rate. Default value is 25.

       rc
       gc
       bc
       ac  Specify the red, green, blue and alpha contrast. Default values are 40, 160, 80 and
           255.  Allowed range is "[0, 255]".

       rf
       gf
       bf
       af  Specify the red, green, blue and alpha fade. Default values are 15, 10, 5 and 5.
           Allowed range is "[0, 255]".

       zoom
           Set the zoom factor. Default value is 1. Allowed range is "[0, 10]".  Values lower
           than 1 will auto adjust zoom factor to maximal possible value.

       draw
           Set the vectorscope drawing mode.

           Available values are:

           dot Draw dot for each sample.

           line
               Draw line between previous and current sample.

           Default value is dot.

       scale
           Specify amplitude scale of audio samples.

           Available values are:

           lin Linear.

           sqrt
               Square root.

           cbrt
               Cubic root.

           log Logarithmic.

       Examples

       •   Complete example using ffplay:

                   ffplay -f lavfi 'amovie=input.mp3, asplit [a][out1];
                                [a] avectorscope=zoom=1.3:rc=2:gc=200:bc=10:rf=1:gf=8:bf=7 [out0]'

   bench, abench
       Benchmark part of a filtergraph.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       action
           Start or stop a timer.

           Available values are:

           start
               Get the current time, set it as frame metadata (using the key
               "lavfi.bench.start_time"), and forward the frame to the next filter.

           stop
               Get the current time and fetch the "lavfi.bench.start_time" metadata from the
               input frame metadata to get the time difference. Time difference, average, maximum
               and minimum time (respectively "t", "avg", "max" and "min") are then printed. The
               timestamps are expressed in seconds.

       Examples

       •   Benchmark selectivecolor filter:

                   bench=start,selectivecolor=reds=-.2 .12 -.49,bench=stop

   concat
       Concatenate audio and video streams, joining them together one after the other.

       The filter works on segments of synchronized video and audio streams. All segments must
       have the same number of streams of each type, and that will also be the number of streams
       at output.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       n   Set the number of segments. Default is 2.

       v   Set the number of output video streams, that is also the number of video streams in
           each segment. Default is 1.

       a   Set the number of output audio streams, that is also the number of audio streams in
           each segment. Default is 0.

       unsafe
           Activate unsafe mode: do not fail if segments have a different format.

       The filter has v+a outputs: first v video outputs, then a audio outputs.

       There are nx(v+a) inputs: first the inputs for the first segment, in the same order as the
       outputs, then the inputs for the second segment, etc.

       Related streams do not always have exactly the same duration, for various reasons
       including codec frame size or sloppy authoring. For that reason, related synchronized
       streams (e.g. a video and its audio track) should be concatenated at once. The concat
       filter will use the duration of the longest stream in each segment (except the last one),
       and if necessary pad shorter audio streams with silence.

       For this filter to work correctly, all segments must start at timestamp 0.

       All corresponding streams must have the same parameters in all segments; the filtering
       system will automatically select a common pixel format for video streams, and a common
       sample format, sample rate and channel layout for audio streams, but other settings, such
       as resolution, must be converted explicitly by the user.

       Different frame rates are acceptable but will result in variable frame rate at output; be
       sure to configure the output file to handle it.

       Examples

       •   Concatenate an opening, an episode and an ending, all in bilingual version (video in
           stream 0, audio in streams 1 and 2):

                   ffmpeg -i opening.mkv -i episode.mkv -i ending.mkv -filter_complex \
                     '[0:0] [0:1] [0:2] [1:0] [1:1] [1:2] [2:0] [2:1] [2:2]
                      concat=n=3:v=1:a=2 [v] [a1] [a2]' \
                     -map '[v]' -map '[a1]' -map '[a2]' output.mkv

       •   Concatenate two parts, handling audio and video separately, using the (a)movie
           sources, and adjusting the resolution:

                   movie=part1.mp4, scale=512:288 [v1] ; amovie=part1.mp4 [a1] ;
                   movie=part2.mp4, scale=512:288 [v2] ; amovie=part2.mp4 [a2] ;
                   [v1] [v2] concat [outv] ; [a1] [a2] concat=v=0:a=1 [outa]

           Note that a desync will happen at the stitch if the audio and video streams do not
           have exactly the same duration in the first file.

   drawgraph, adrawgraph
       Draw a graph using input video or audio metadata.

       It accepts the following parameters:

       m1  Set 1st frame metadata key from which metadata values will be used to draw a graph.

       fg1 Set 1st foreground color expression.

       m2  Set 2nd frame metadata key from which metadata values will be used to draw a graph.

       fg2 Set 2nd foreground color expression.

       m3  Set 3rd frame metadata key from which metadata values will be used to draw a graph.

       fg3 Set 3rd foreground color expression.

       m4  Set 4th frame metadata key from which metadata values will be used to draw a graph.

       fg4 Set 4th foreground color expression.

       min Set minimal value of metadata value.

       max Set maximal value of metadata value.

       bg  Set graph background color. Default is white.

               Scroll from right to left.

           rscroll
               Scroll from left to right.

           picture
               Draw single picture.

           Default is "frame".

       size
           Set size of graph video. For the syntax of this option, check the "Video size" section
           in the ffmpeg-utils manual.  The default value is "900x256".

           The foreground color expressions can use the following variables:

           MIN Minimal value of metadata value.

           MAX Maximal value of metadata value.

           VAL Current metadata key value.

           The color is defined as 0xAABBGGRR.

       Example using metadata from signalstats filter:

               signalstats,drawgraph=lavfi.signalstats.YAVG:min=0:max=255

       Example using metadata from ebur128 filter:

               ebur128=metadata=1,adrawgraph=lavfi.r128.M:min=-120:max=5

   ebur128
       EBU R128 scanner filter. This filter takes an audio stream as input and outputs it
       unchanged. By default, it logs a message at a frequency of 10Hz with the Momentary
       loudness (identified by "M"), Short-term loudness ("S"), Integrated loudness ("I") and
       Loudness Range ("LRA").

       The filter also has a video output (see the video option) with a real time graph to
       observe the loudness evolution. The graphic contains the logged message mentioned above,
       so it is not printed anymore when this option is set, unless the verbose logging is set.
       The main graphing area contains the short-term loudness (3 seconds of analysis), and the
       gauge on the right is for the momentary loudness (400 milliseconds).

       More information about the Loudness Recommendation EBU R128 on
       <http://tech.ebu.ch/loudness>.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       video
           Activate the video output. The audio stream is passed unchanged whether this option is
           set or no. The video stream will be the first output stream if activated. Default is
           0.

       size
           Set the video size. This option is for video only. For the syntax of this option,
           check the "Video size" section in the ffmpeg-utils manual.  Default and minimum
           resolution is "640x480".

       meter
           Set the EBU scale meter. Default is 9. Common values are 9 and 18, respectively for
           EBU scale meter +9 and EBU scale meter +18. Any other integer value between this range
           is allowed.

       metadata
           Set metadata injection. If set to 1, the audio input will be segmented into 100ms
           output frames, each of them containing various loudness information in metadata.  All
           the metadata keys are prefixed with "lavfi.r128.".

           Default is 0.

       framelog
           Force the frame logging level.

           Available values are:

           info
               information logging level

           verbose
               verbose logging level

           By default, the logging level is set to info. If the video or the metadata options are
           set, it switches to verbose.

       peak
           Set peak mode(s).

           Available modes can be cumulated (the option is a "flag" type). Possible values are:

           none
               Disable any peak mode (default).

           sample
               Enable sample-peak mode.

               Simple peak mode looking for the higher sample value. It logs a message for
               sample-peak (identified by "SPK").

           true
               Enable true-peak mode.

               If enabled, the peak lookup is done on an over-sampled version of the input stream
               for better peak accuracy. It logs a message for true-peak.  (identified by "TPK")
               and true-peak per frame (identified by "FTPK").  This mode requires a build with
               "libswresample".

       dualmono
           Treat mono input files as "dual mono". If a mono file is intended for playback on a
           stereo system, its EBU R128 measurement will be perceptually incorrect.  If set to
           "true", this option will compensate for this effect.  Multi-channel input files are
           not affected by this option.

       panlaw
           Set a specific pan law to be used for the measurement of dual mono files.  This
           parameter is optional, and has a default value of -3.01dB.

       Examples

       •   Real-time graph using ffplay, with a EBU scale meter +18:

                   ffplay -f lavfi -i "amovie=input.mp3,ebur128=video=1:meter=18 [out0][out1]"

       •   Run an analysis with ffmpeg:

                   ffmpeg -nostats -i input.mp3 -filter_complex ebur128 -f null -

   interleave, ainterleave
       Temporally interleave frames from several inputs.

       "interleave" works with video inputs, "ainterleave" with audio.

       These filters read frames from several inputs and send the oldest queued frame to the
       output.

       Input streams must have well defined, monotonically increasing frame timestamp values.

       In order to submit one frame to output, these filters need to enqueue at least one frame
       for each input, so they cannot work in case one input is not yet terminated and will not
       receive incoming frames.

       For example consider the case when one input is a "select" filter which always drops input
       frames. The "interleave" filter will keep reading from that input, but it will never be
       able to send new frames to output until the input sends an end-of-stream signal.

       Also, depending on inputs synchronization, the filters will drop frames in case one input
       receives more frames than the other ones, and the queue is already filled.

       These filters accept the following options:

       nb_inputs, n
           Set the number of different inputs, it is 2 by default.

       Examples

       •   Interleave frames belonging to different streams using ffmpeg:

                   ffmpeg -i bambi.avi -i pr0n.mkv -filter_complex "[0:v][1:v] interleave" out.avi

       •   Add flickering blur effect:

                   select='if(gt(random(0), 0.2), 1, 2)':n=2 [tmp], boxblur=2:2, [tmp] interleave

   metadata, ametadata
       Manipulate frame metadata.

       This filter accepts the following options:

       mode
           Set mode of operation of the filter.

           Can be one of the following:

           select
               If both "value" and "key" is set, select frames which have such metadata. If only
               "key" is set, select every frame that has such key in metadata.

           add Add new metadata "key" and "value". If key is already available do nothing.

           modify
               Modify value of already present key.

           delete
               If "value" is set, delete only keys that have such value.  Otherwise, delete key.
               If "key" is not set, delete all metadata values in the frame.

           print
               Print key and its value if metadata was found. If "key" is not set print all
               metadata values available in frame.

       key Set key used with all modes. Must be set for all modes except "print" and "delete".

       value
           Set metadata value which will be used. This option is mandatory for "modify" and "add"
           mode.

       function
           Which function to use when comparing metadata value and "value".

           Can be one of following:

           same_str
               Values are interpreted as strings, returns true if metadata value is same as
               "value".

           starts_with
               Values are interpreted as strings, returns true if metadata value starts with the
               "value" option string.

           less
               Values are interpreted as floats, returns true if metadata value is less than
               "value".

           equal
               Values are interpreted as floats, returns true if "value" is equal with metadata
               value.

           greater
               Values are interpreted as floats, returns true if metadata value is greater than
               "value".

           expr
               Values are interpreted as floats, returns true if expression from option "expr"
               evaluates to true.

       expr
           Set expression which is used when "function" is set to "expr".  The expression is
           evaluated through the eval API and can contain the following constants:

           VALUE1
               Float representation of "value" from metadata key.

           VALUE2
               Float representation of "value" as supplied by user in "value" option.

       file
           If specified in "print" mode, output is written to the named file. Instead of plain
           filename any writable url can be specified. Filename ``-'' is a shorthand for standard
           output. If "file" option is not set, output is written to the log with AV_LOG_INFO
           loglevel.

       Examples

       •   Print all metadata values for frames with key "lavfi.singnalstats.YDIF" with values
           between 0 and 1.

                   signalstats,metadata=print:key=lavfi.signalstats.YDIF:value=0:function=expr:expr='between(VALUE1,0,1)'

       •   Print silencedetect output to file metadata.txt.

                   silencedetect,ametadata=mode=print:file=metadata.txt

       •   Direct all metadata to a pipe with file descriptor 4.

                   metadata=mode=print:file='pipe\:4'

   perms, aperms
       Set read/write permissions for the output frames.

       These filters are mainly aimed at developers to test direct path in the following filter
       in the filtergraph.

       The filters accept the following options:

       mode
           Select the permissions mode.

           It accepts the following values:

           none
               Do nothing. This is the default.

           ro  Set all the output frames read-only.

           rw  Set all the output frames directly writable.

           toggle
               Make the frame read-only if writable, and writable if read-only.

           random
               Set each output frame read-only or writable randomly.

       seed
           Set the seed for the random mode, must be an integer included between 0 and
           "UINT32_MAX". If not specified, or if explicitly set to "-1", the filter will try to
           use a good random seed on a best effort basis.

       Note: in case of auto-inserted filter between the permission filter and the following one,
       the permission might not be received as expected in that following filter. Inserting a
       format or aformat filter before the perms/aperms filter can avoid this problem.

   realtime, arealtime
       Slow down filtering to match real time approximately.

       These filters will pause the filtering for a variable amount of time to match the output
       rate with the input timestamps.  They are similar to the re option to "ffmpeg".

       They accept the following options:

       limit
           Time limit for the pauses. Any pause longer than that will be considered a timestamp
           discontinuity and reset the timer. Default is 2 seconds.

   select, aselect
       Select frames to pass in output.

       This filter accepts the following options:

       expr, e
           Set expression, which is evaluated for each input frame.

           If the expression is evaluated to zero, the frame is discarded.

           If the evaluation result is negative or NaN, the frame is sent to the first output;
           otherwise it is sent to the output with index "ceil(val)-1", assuming that the input
           index starts from 0.

           For example a value of 1.2 corresponds to the output with index "ceil(1.2)-1 = 2-1 =
           1", that is the second output.

       outputs, n
           Set the number of outputs. The output to which to send the selected frame is based on
           the result of the evaluation. Default value is 1.

       The expression can contain the following constants:

       n   The (sequential) number of the filtered frame, starting from 0.

       selected_n
           The (sequential) number of the selected frame, starting from 0.

       prev_selected_n
           The sequential number of the last selected frame. It's NAN if undefined.

       TB  The timebase of the input timestamps.

       pts The PTS (Presentation TimeStamp) of the filtered video frame, expressed in TB units.
           It's NAN if undefined.

       t   The PTS of the filtered video frame, expressed in seconds. It's NAN if undefined.

       prev_pts
           The PTS of the previously filtered video frame. It's NAN if undefined.

       prev_selected_pts
           The PTS of the last previously filtered video frame. It's NAN if undefined.

       prev_selected_t
           The PTS of the last previously selected video frame. It's NAN if undefined.

       start_pts
           The PTS of the first video frame in the video. It's NAN if undefined.

       start_t
           The time of the first video frame in the video. It's NAN if undefined.

       pict_type (video only)
           The type of the filtered frame. It can assume one of the following values:

           I
           P
           B
           S
           SI
           SP
           BI
       interlace_type (video only)
           The frame interlace type. It can assume one of the following values:

           PROGRESSIVE
               The frame is progressive (not interlaced).

           TOPFIRST
               The frame is top-field-first.

           BOTTOMFIRST
               The frame is bottom-field-first.

       consumed_sample_n (audio only)
           the number of selected samples before the current frame

       samples_n (audio only)
           the number of samples in the current frame

       sample_rate (audio only)
           the input sample rate

       key This is 1 if the filtered frame is a key-frame, 0 otherwise.

       pos the position in the file of the filtered frame, -1 if the information is not available
           (e.g. for synthetic video)

       scene (video only)
           value between 0 and 1 to indicate a new scene; a low value reflects a low probability
           for the current frame to introduce a new scene, while a higher value means the current
           frame is more likely to be one (see the example below)

       concatdec_select
           The concat demuxer can select only part of a concat input file by setting an inpoint
           and an outpoint, but the output packets may not be entirely contained in the selected
           interval. By using this variable, it is possible to skip frames generated by the
           concat demuxer which are not exactly contained in the selected interval.

           This works by comparing the frame pts against the lavf.concat.start_time and the
           lavf.concat.duration packet metadata values which are also present in the decoded
           frames.

           The concatdec_select variable is -1 if the frame pts is at least start_time and either
           the duration metadata is missing or the frame pts is less than start_time + duration,
           0 otherwise, and NaN if the start_time metadata is missing.

           That basically means that an input frame is selected if its pts is within the interval
           set by the concat demuxer.

       The default value of the select expression is "1".

       Examples

       •   Select all frames in input:

                   select

           The example above is the same as:

                   select=1

       •   Skip all frames:

                   select=0

       •   Select only I-frames:

                   select='eq(pict_type\,I)'

       •   Select one frame every 100:

                   select='not(mod(n\,100))'

       •   Select only frames contained in the 10-20 time interval:

                   select=between(t\,10\,20)

       •   Select only I-frames contained in the 10-20 time interval:

                   select=between(t\,10\,20)*eq(pict_type\,I)

       •   Select frames with a minimum distance of 10 seconds:

                   select='isnan(prev_selected_t)+gte(t-prev_selected_t\,10)'

       •   Use aselect to select only audio frames with samples number > 100:

                   aselect='gt(samples_n\,100)'

       •   Create a mosaic of the first scenes:

                   ffmpeg -i video.avi -vf select='gt(scene\,0.4)',scale=160:120,tile -frames:v 1 preview.png

           Comparing scene against a value between 0.3 and 0.5 is generally a sane choice.

       •   Send even and odd frames to separate outputs, and compose them:

                   select=n=2:e='mod(n, 2)+1' [odd][even]; [odd] pad=h=2*ih [tmp]; [tmp][even] overlay=y=h

       •   Select useful frames from an ffconcat file which is using inpoints and outpoints but
           where the source files are not intra frame only.

                   ffmpeg -copyts -vsync 0 -segment_time_metadata 1 -i input.ffconcat -vf select=concatdec_select -af aselect=concatdec_select output.avi

   sendcmd, asendcmd
       Send commands to filters in the filtergraph.

       These filters read commands to be sent to other filters in the filtergraph.

       "sendcmd" must be inserted between two video filters, "asendcmd" must be inserted between
       two audio filters, but apart from that they act the same way.

       The specification of commands can be provided in the filter arguments with the commands
       option, or in a file specified by the filename option.

       These filters accept the following options:

       commands, c
           Set the commands to be read and sent to the other filters.

       filename, f
           Set the filename of the commands to be read and sent to the other filters.

       Commands syntax

       A commands description consists of a sequence of interval specifications, comprising a
       list of commands to be executed when a particular event related to that interval occurs.
       The occurring event is typically the current frame time entering or leaving a given time
       interval.

       An interval is specified by the following syntax:

               <START>[-<END>] <COMMANDS>;

       The time interval is specified by the START and END times.  END is optional and defaults
       to the maximum time.

       The current frame time is considered within the specified interval if it is included in
       the interval [START, END), that is when the time is greater or equal to START and is
       lesser than END.

       COMMANDS consists of a sequence of one or more command specifications, separated by ",",
       relating to that interval.  The syntax of a command specification is given by:

               [<FLAGS>] <TARGET> <COMMAND> <ARG>

       FLAGS is optional and specifies the type of events relating to the time interval which
       enable sending the specified command, and must be a non-null sequence of identifier flags
       separated by "+" or "|" and enclosed between "[" and "]".

       The following flags are recognized:

       enter
           The command is sent when the current frame timestamp enters the specified interval. In
           other words, the command is sent when the previous frame timestamp was not in the
           given interval, and the current is.

       leave
           The command is sent when the current frame timestamp leaves the specified interval. In
           other words, the command is sent when the previous frame timestamp was in the given
           interval, and the current is not.

       If FLAGS is not specified, a default value of "[enter]" is assumed.

       TARGET specifies the target of the command, usually the name of the filter class or a
       specific filter instance name.

       COMMAND specifies the name of the command for the target filter.

       ARG is optional and specifies the optional list of argument for the given COMMAND.

       Between one interval specification and another, whitespaces, or sequences of characters
       starting with "#" until the end of line, are ignored and can be used to annotate comments.

       A simplified BNF description of the commands specification syntax follows:

               <COMMAND_FLAG>  ::= "enter" | "leave"
               <COMMAND_FLAGS> ::= <COMMAND_FLAG> [(+|"|")<COMMAND_FLAG>]
               <COMMAND>       ::= ["[" <COMMAND_FLAGS> "]"] <TARGET> <COMMAND> [<ARG>]
               <COMMANDS>      ::= <COMMAND> [,<COMMANDS>]
               <INTERVAL>      ::= <START>[-<END>] <COMMANDS>
               <INTERVALS>     ::= <INTERVAL>[;<INTERVALS>]

       Examples

       •   Specify audio tempo change at second 4:

                   asendcmd=c='4.0 atempo tempo 1.5',atempo

       •   Target a specific filter instance:

                   asendcmd=c='4.0 atempo@my tempo 1.5',atempo@my

       •   Specify a list of drawtext and hue commands in a file.

                   # show text in the interval 5-10
                   5.0-10.0 [enter] drawtext reinit 'fontfile=FreeSerif.ttf:text=hello world',
                            [leave] drawtext reinit 'fontfile=FreeSerif.ttf:text=';

                   # desaturate the image in the interval 15-20
                   15.0-20.0 [enter] hue s 0,
                             [enter] drawtext reinit 'fontfile=FreeSerif.ttf:text=nocolor',
                             [leave] hue s 1,
                             [leave] drawtext reinit 'fontfile=FreeSerif.ttf:text=color';

                   # apply an exponential saturation fade-out effect, starting from time 25
                   25 [enter] hue s exp(25-t)

           A filtergraph allowing to read and process the above command list stored in a file
           test.cmd, can be specified with:

                   sendcmd=f=test.cmd,drawtext=fontfile=FreeSerif.ttf:text='',hue

   setpts, asetpts
       Change the PTS (presentation timestamp) of the input frames.

       "setpts" works on video frames, "asetpts" on audio frames.

       This filter accepts the following options:

       expr
           The expression which is evaluated for each frame to construct its timestamp.

       The expression is evaluated through the eval API and can contain the following constants:

       PTS The presentation timestamp in input

       N   The count of the input frame for video or the number of consumed samples, not
           including the current frame for audio, starting from 0.

       NB_CONSUMED_SAMPLES
           The number of consumed samples, not including the current frame (only audio)

       NB_SAMPLES, S

       PREV_INT
           previous input time in seconds

       PREV_OUTPTS
           The previous output PTS.

       PREV_OUTT
           previous output time in seconds

       RTCTIME
           The wallclock (RTC) time in microseconds. This is deprecated, use time(0) instead.

       RTCSTART
           The wallclock (RTC) time at the start of the movie in microseconds.

       TB  The timebase of the input timestamps.

       Examples

       •   Start counting PTS from zero

                   setpts=PTS-STARTPTS

       •   Apply fast motion effect:

                   setpts=0.5*PTS

       •   Apply slow motion effect:

                   setpts=2.0*PTS

       •   Set fixed rate of 25 frames per second:

                   setpts=N/(25*TB)

       •   Set fixed rate 25 fps with some jitter:

                   setpts='1/(25*TB) * (N + 0.05 * sin(N*2*PI/25))'

       •   Apply an offset of 10 seconds to the input PTS:

                   setpts=PTS+10/TB

       •   Generate timestamps from a "live source" and rebase onto the current timebase:

                   setpts='(RTCTIME - RTCSTART) / (TB * 1000000)'

       •   Generate timestamps by counting samples:

                   asetpts=N/SR/TB

   settb, asettb
       Set the timebase to use for the output frames timestamps.  It is mainly useful for testing
       timebase configuration.

       It accepts the following parameters:

       expr, tb
           The expression which is evaluated into the output timebase.

       The value for tb is an arithmetic expression representing a rational. The expression can
       contain the constants "AVTB" (the default timebase), "intb" (the input timebase) and "sr"
       (the sample rate, audio only). Default value is "intb".

       Examples

       •   Set the timebase to 1/25:

                   settb=expr=1/25

       •   Set the timebase to 1/10:

                   settb=expr=0.1

       •   Set the timebase to 1001/1000:

                   settb=1+0.001

       •   Set the timebase to 2*intb:

   showcqt
       Convert input audio to a video output representing frequency spectrum logarithmically
       using Brown-Puckette constant Q transform algorithm with direct frequency domain
       coefficient calculation (but the transform itself is not really constant Q, instead the Q
       factor is actually variable/clamped), with musical tone scale, from E0 to D#10.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       size, s
           Specify the video size for the output. It must be even. For the syntax of this option,

               the frequency where it is evaluated

           timeclamp, tc
               the value of timeclamp option.

           range is "[1, 30]".

       fcount
           Specify the transform count for every single pixel. Default value is 0, which makes it
           computed automatically. Acceptable range is "[0, 10]".

       fontfile
           Specify font file for use with freetype to draw the axis. If not specified, use
           embedded font. Note that drawing with font file or embedded font is not implemented
           with custom basefreq and endfreq, use axisfile option instead.

       font
           Specify fontconfig pattern. This has lower priority than fontfile.  The : in the
           pattern may be replaced by | to avoid unnecessary escaping.

       fontcolor
           Specify font color expression. This is arithmetic expression that should return
           integer value 0xRRGGBB. It can contain variables:

           frequency, freq, f
               the frequency where it is evaluated

           timeclamp, tc
               the value of timeclamp option

           and functions:

           midi(f)
               midi number of frequency f, some midi numbers: E0(16), C1(24), C2(36), A4(69)

                   ffmpeg -i audio.flac -lavfi showwavespic=split_channels=1:s=1024x800 waveform.png

   sidedata, asidedata
       Delete frame side data, or select frames based on it.

       This filter accepts the following options:

       mode
           Set mode of operation of the filter.

           Can be one of the following:

           select

           delete
               Delete side data of "type". If "type" is not set, delete all side data in the
               frame.

       type
           Set side data type used with all modes. Must be set for "select" mode. For the list of
           frame side data types, refer to the "AVFrameSideDataType" enum in libavutil/frame.h.
           For example, to choose "AV_FRAME_DATA_PANSCAN" side data, you must specify "PANSCAN".

   spectrumsynth
       Sythesize audio from 2 input video spectrums, first input stream represents magnitude
       across time and second represents phase across time.  The filter will transform from
       frequency domain as displayed in videos back to time domain as presented in audio output.

       This filter is primarily created for reversing processed showspectrum filter outputs, but
       can synthesize sound from other spectrograms too.  But in such case results are going to
       be poor if the phase data is not available, because in such cases phase data need to be
       recreated, usually its just recreated from random noise.  For best results use gray only
       output ("channel" color mode in showspectrum filter) and "log" scale for magnitude video
       and "lin" scale for phase video. To produce phase, for 2nd video, use "data" option.
       Inputs videos should generally use "fullframe" slide mode as that saves resources needed
       for decoding video.

       The filter accepts the following options:

       sample_rate
           Specify sample rate of output audio, the sample rate of audio from which spectrum was
           generated may differ.

       channels
           Set number of channels represented in input video spectrums.

       scale
           Set scale which was used when generating magnitude input spectrum.  Can be "lin" or
           "log". Default is "log".

       slide
           Set slide which was used when generating inputs spectrums.  Can be "replace",
           "scroll", "fullframe" or "rscroll".  Default is "fullframe".

       win_func
           Set window function used for resynthesis.

       overlap
           Set window overlap. In range "[0, 1]". Default is 1, which means optimal overlap for
           selected window function will be picked.

       orientation
           Set orientation of input videos. Can be "vertical" or "horizontal".  Default is
           "vertical".

       Examples

       •   First create magnitude and phase videos from audio, assuming audio is stereo with
           44100 sample rate, then resynthesize videos back to audio with spectrumsynth:

                   ffmpeg -i input.flac -lavfi showspectrum=mode=separate:scale=log:overlap=0.875:color=channel:slide=fullframe:data=magnitude -an -c:v rawvideo magnitude.nut
                   ffmpeg -i input.flac -lavfi showspectrum=mode=separate:scale=lin:overlap=0.875:color=channel:slide=fullframe:data=phase -an -c:v rawvideo phase.nut
                   ffmpeg -i magnitude.nut -i phase.nut -lavfi spectrumsynth=channels=2:sample_rate=44100:win_func=hann:overlap=0.875:slide=fullframe output.flac

   split, asplit
       Split input into several identical outputs.

       "asplit" works with audio input, "split" with video.

       The filter accepts a single parameter which specifies the number of outputs. If
       unspecified, it defaults to 2.

       Examples

       •   Create two separate outputs from the same input:

                   [in] split [out0][out1]

       •   To create 3 or more outputs, you need to specify the number of outputs, like in:

                   [in] asplit=3 [out0][out1][out2]

       •   Create two separate outputs from the same input, one cropped and one padded:

                   [in] split [splitout1][splitout2];
                   [splitout1] crop=100:100:0:0    [cropout];
                   [splitout2] pad=200:200:100:100 [padout];

       •   Create 5 copies of the input audio with ffmpeg:

                   ffmpeg -i INPUT -filter_complex asplit=5 OUTPUT

   zmq, azmq
       Receive commands sent through a libzmq client, and forward them to filters in the
       filtergraph.

       "zmq" and "azmq" work as a pass-through filters. "zmq" must be inserted between two video
       filters, "azmq" between two audio filters.

       To enable these filters you need to install the libzmq library and headers and configure
       FFmpeg with "--enable-libzmq".

       For more information about libzmq see: <http://www.zeromq.org/>

       The "zmq" and "azmq" filters work as a libzmq server, which receives messages sent through
       a network interface defined by the bind_address option.

       The received message must be in the form:

               <TARGET> <COMMAND> [<ARG>]

       TARGET specifies the target of the command, usually the name of the filter class or a
       specific filter instance name.

       COMMAND specifies the name of the command for the target filter.

       ARG is optional and specifies the optional argument list for the given COMMAND.

       Upon reception, the message is processed and the corresponding command is injected into
       the filtergraph. Depending on the result, the filter will send a reply to the client,
       adopting the format:

               <ERROR_CODE> <ERROR_REASON>
               <MESSAGE>

       MESSAGE is optional.

       Examples

       Look at tools/zmqsend for an example of a zmq client which can be used to send commands
       processed by these filters.

       Consider the following filtergraph generated by ffplay

               ffplay -dumpgraph 1 -f lavfi "
               color=s=100x100:c=red  [l];
               color=s=100x100:c=blue [r];
               nullsrc=s=200x100, zmq [bg];
               [bg][l]   overlay      [bg+l];
               [bg+l][r] overlay=x=100 "

       To change the color of the left side of the video, the following command can be used:

               echo Parsed_color_0 c yellow | tools/zmqsend

       To change the right side:

               echo Parsed_color_1 c pink | tools/zmqsend

MULTIMEDIA SOURCES

       Below is a description of the currently available multimedia sources.

   amovie
       This is the same as movie source, except it selects an audio stream by default.

   movie
       Read audio and/or video stream(s) from a movie container.

       It accepts the following parameters:

       filename
           The name of the resource to read (not necessarily a file; it can also be a device or a
           stream accessed through some protocol).

       format_name, f
           Specifies the format assumed for the movie to read, and can be either the name of a
           container or an input device. If not specified, the format is guessed from movie_name
           or by probing.

       seek_point, sp
           Specifies the seek point in seconds. The frames will be output starting from this seek
           point. The parameter is evaluated with "av_strtod", so the numerical value may be
           suffixed by an IS postfix. The default value is "0".

       streams, s
           Specifies the streams to read. Several streams can be specified, separated by "+". The
           source will then have as many outputs, in the same order. The syntax is explained in
           the ``Stream specifiers'' section in the ffmpeg manual. Two special names, "dv" and
           "da" specify respectively the default (best suited) video and audio stream. Default is
           "dv", or "da" if the filter is called as "amovie".

       stream_index, si
           Specifies the index of the video stream to read. If the value is -1, the most suitable
           video stream will be automatically selected. The default value is "-1". Deprecated. If
           the filter is called "amovie", it will select audio instead of video.

       loop
           Specifies how many times to read the stream in sequence.  If the value is 0, the
           stream will be looped infinitely.  Default value is "1".

           Note that when the movie is looped the source timestamps are not changed, so it will
           generate non monotonically increasing timestamps.

       discontinuity
           Specifies the time difference between frames above which the point is considered a
           timestamp discontinuity which is removed by adjusting the later timestamps.

       It allows overlaying a second video on top of the main input of a filtergraph, as shown in
       this graph:

               input -----------> deltapts0 --> overlay --> output
                                                   ^
                                                   |
               movie --> scale--> deltapts1 -------+

       Examples

       •   Skip 3.2 seconds from the start of the AVI file in.avi, and overlay it on top of the
           input labelled "in":

                   movie=in.avi:seek_point=3.2, scale=180:-1, setpts=PTS-STARTPTS [over];
                   [in] setpts=PTS-STARTPTS [main];
                   [main][over] overlay=16:16 [out]

       •   Read from a video4linux2 device, and overlay it on top of the input labelled "in":

                   movie=/dev/video0:f=video4linux2, scale=180:-1, setpts=PTS-STARTPTS [over];
                   [in] setpts=PTS-STARTPTS [main];
                   [main][over] overlay=16:16 [out]

       •   Read the first video stream and the audio stream with id 0x81 from dvd.vob; the video
           is connected to the pad named "video" and the audio is connected to the pad named
           "audio":

                   movie=dvd.vob:s=v:0+#0x81 [video] [audio]

       Commands

       Both movie and amovie support the following commands:

       seek
           Perform seek using "av_seek_frame".  The syntax is: seek stream_index|timestamp|flagsstream_index: If stream_index is -1, a default stream is selected, and timestamp
               is automatically converted from AV_TIME_BASE units to the stream specific
               time_base.

           •   timestamp: Timestamp in AVStream.time_base units or, if no stream is specified, in
               AV_TIME_BASE units.

           •   flags: Flags which select direction and seeking mode.

       get_duration
           Get movie duration in AV_TIME_BASE units.
