<p>This document describes the supported formats (muxers and demuxers)
provided by the libavformat library.
</p>
<a name="Format-Options"></a>
<h2 class="chapter">2 Format Options<span class="pull-right"><a class="anchor hidden-xs" href="#Format-Options" aria-hidden="true">#</a> <a class="anchor hidden-xs"href="#toc-Format-Options" aria-hidden="true">TOC</a></span></h2>
<p>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.
</p>
<p>Options may be set by specifying -<var>option</var> <var>value</var> in the
FFmpeg tools, or by setting the value explicitly in the
<code>AVFormatContext</code> options or using the <samp>libavutil/opt.h</samp> API
for programmatic use.
</p>
<p>The list of supported options follows:
</p>
<dl compact="compact">
<dt><span><samp>avioflags <var>flags</var> (<em>input/output</em>)</samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>Possible values:
</p><dl compact="compact">
<dt><span>‘<samp>direct</samp>’</span></dt>
<dd><p>Reduce buffering.
</p></dd>
</dl>
</dd>
<dt><span><samp>probesize <var>integer</var> (<em>input</em>)</samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>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.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><span><samp>max_probe_packets <var>integer</var> (<em>input</em>)</samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>Set the maximum number of buffered packets when probing a codec.
Default is 2500 packets.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><span><samp>packetsize <var>integer</var> (<em>output</em>)</samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>Set packet size.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><span><samp>fflags <var>flags</var></samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>Set format flags. Some are implemented for a limited number of formats.
</p>
<p>Possible values for input files:
</p><dl compact="compact">
<dt><span>‘<samp>discardcorrupt</samp>’</span></dt>
<dd><p>Discard corrupted packets.
</p></dd>
<dt><span>‘<samp>fastseek</samp>’</span></dt>
<dd><p>Enable fast, but inaccurate seeks for some formats.
</p></dd>
<dt><span>‘<samp>genpts</samp>’</span></dt>
<dd><p>Generate missing PTS if DTS is present.
</p></dd>
<dt><span>‘<samp>igndts</samp>’</span></dt>
<dd><p>Ignore DTS if PTS is set. Inert when nofillin is set.
</p></dd>
<dt><span>‘<samp>ignidx</samp>’</span></dt>
<dd><p>Ignore index.
</p></dd>
<dt><span>‘<samp>nobuffer</samp>’</span></dt>
<dd><p>Reduce the latency introduced by buffering during initial input streams analysis.
</p></dd>
<dt><span>‘<samp>nofillin</samp>’</span></dt>
<dd><p>Do not fill in missing values in packet fields that can be exactly calculated.
</p></dd>
<dt><span>‘<samp>noparse</samp>’</span></dt>
<dd><p>Disable AVParsers, this needs <code>+nofillin</code> too.
</p></dd>
<dt><span>‘<samp>sortdts</samp>’</span></dt>
<dd><p>Try to interleave output packets by DTS. At present, available only for AVIs with an index.
</p></dd>
</dl>
<p>Possible values for output files:
</p><dl compact="compact">
<dt><span>‘<samp>autobsf</samp>’</span></dt>
<dd><p>Automatically apply bitstream filters as required by the output format. Enabled by default.
</p></dd>
<dt><span>‘<samp>bitexact</samp>’</span></dt>
<dd><p>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.
</p></dd>
<dt><span>‘<samp>flush_packets</samp>’</span></dt>
<dd><p>Write out packets immediately.
</p></dd>
<dt><span>‘<samp>shortest</samp>’</span></dt>
<dd><p>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.
</p></dd>
</dl>
</dd>
<dt><span><samp>seek2any <var>integer</var> (<em>input</em>)</samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>Allow seeking to non-keyframes on demuxer level when supported if set to 1.
Default is 0.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><span><samp>analyzeduration <var>integer</var> (<em>input</em>)</samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>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.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><span><samp>cryptokey <var>hexadecimal string</var> (<em>input</em>)</samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>Set decryption key.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><span><samp>indexmem <var>integer</var> (<em>input</em>)</samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>Set max memory used for timestamp index (per stream).
</p>
</dd>

</p>
</dd>
<dt><span><samp>fdebug <var>flags</var> (<em>input/output</em>)</samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>Print specific debug info.
</p>
<p>Possible values:

<dt><span>‘<samp>ts</samp>’</span></dt>
</dl>
</dd>
<dt><span><samp>max_delay <var>integer</var> (<em>input/output</em>)</samp></span></dt>

</p>
</dd>
<dt><span><samp>fpsprobesize <var>integer</var> (<em>input</em>)</samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>Set number of frames used to probe fps.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><span><samp>audio_preload <var>integer</var> (<em>output</em>)</samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>Set microseconds by which audio packets should be interleaved earlier.

<dt><span><samp>chunk_size <var>integer</var> (<em>output</em>)</samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>Set size in bytes for each chunk.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><span><samp>err_detect, f_err_detect <var>flags</var> (<em>input</em>)</samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>Set error detection flags. <code>f_err_detect</code> is deprecated and
should be used only via the <code>ffmpeg</code> tool.

<p>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.
</p>
<p>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.
</p>
<p>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.

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

<p>You can disable all the demuxers using the configure option
<code>--disable-demuxers</code>, and selectively enable a single demuxer with
the option <code>--enable-demuxer=<var>DEMUXER</var></code>, or disable it
with the option <code>--disable-demuxer=<var>DEMUXER</var></code>.

<p>Virtual concatenation script demuxer.
</p>
<p>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.
</p>
<p>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.
</p>
<p>All files must have the same streams (same codecs, same time base, etc.).
</p>
<p>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
<code>duration</code> directive can be used to override the duration stored in
each file.

<p>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:
</p>
<dl compact="compact">
<dt><span><samp><code>file <var>path</var></code></samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>Path to a file to read; special characters and spaces must be escaped with
backslash or single quotes.
</p>
<p>All subsequent file-related directives apply to that file.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><span><samp><code>ffconcat version 1.0</code></samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>Identify the script type and version.
</p>
<p>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.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><span><samp><code>duration <var>dur</var></code></samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>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.
</p>
<p>If the duration is set for all files, then it is possible to seek in the
whole concatenated video.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><span><samp><code>inpoint <var>timestamp</var></code></samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>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.
</p>
<p>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.
</p>
<p>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 <code>duration</code>
directive) will be reduced based on their specified In point.
</p>
<p>Because of potential packets before the specified In point, packet timestamps
may overlap between two concatenated files.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><span><samp><code>outpoint <var>timestamp</var></code></samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>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.
</p>
<p>Out point is exclusive, which means that the demuxer will not output packets
with a decoding timestamp greater or equal to Out point.
</p>
<p>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.
</p>
<p>The duration of the files (if not specified by the <code>duration</code>
directive) will be reduced based on their specified Out point.

<p>Image file demuxer.
</p>
<p>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 <var>pattern_type</var>.
</p>
<p>The pattern may contain a suffix which is used to automatically
determine the format of the images contained in the files.
</p>
<p>The size, the pixel format, and the format of each image must be the
same for all the files in the sequence.
</p>
<p>This demuxer accepts the following options:
</p><dl compact="compact">
<dt><span><samp>framerate</samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>Set the frame rate for the video stream. It defaults to 25.
</p></dd>
<dt><span><samp>loop</samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>If set to 1, loop over the input. Default value is 0.
</p></dd>
<dt><span><samp>pattern_type</samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>Select the pattern type used to interpret the provided filename.
</p>
<p><var>pattern_type</var> accepts one of the following values.
</p><dl compact="compact">
<dt><span><samp>none</samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>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.
</p></dd>
<dt><span><samp>sequence</samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>Select a sequence pattern type, used to specify a sequence of files
indexed by sequential numbers.
</p>
<p>A sequence pattern may contain the string "%d" or "%0<var>N</var>d", which
specifies the position of the characters representing a sequential
number in each filename matched by the pattern. If the form
"%d0<var>N</var>d" is used, the string representing the number in each
filename is 0-padded and <var>N</var> is the total number of 0-padded
digits representing the number. The literal character ’%’ can be
specified in the pattern with the string "%%".
</p>
<p>If the sequence pattern contains "%d" or "%0<var>N</var>d", the first filename of
the file list specified by the pattern must contain a number
inclusively contained between <var>start_number</var> and
<var>start_number</var>+<var>start_number_range</var>-1, and all the following
numbers must be sequential.
</p>
<p>For example the pattern "img-%03d.bmp" will match a sequence of
filenames of the form <samp>img-001.bmp</samp>, <samp>img-002.bmp</samp>, ...,
<samp>img-010.bmp</samp>, etc.; the pattern "i%%m%%g-%d.jpg" will match a
sequence of filenames of the form <samp>i%m%g-1.jpg</samp>,
<samp>i%m%g-2.jpg</samp>, ..., <samp>i%m%g-10.jpg</samp>, etc.
</p>
<p>Note that the pattern must not necessarily contain "%d" or
"%0<var>N</var>d", for example to convert a single image file
<samp>img.jpeg</samp> you can employ the command:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">ffmpeg -i img.jpeg img.png
</pre></div>
</dd>
<dt><span><samp>glob</samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>Select a glob wildcard pattern type.
</p>
<p>The pattern is interpreted like a <code>glob()</code> pattern. This is only
selectable if libavformat was compiled with globbing support.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><span><samp>glob_sequence <em>(deprecated, will be removed)</em></samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>Select a mixed glob wildcard/sequence pattern.
</p>
<p>If your version of libavformat was compiled with globbing support, and
the provided pattern contains at least one glob meta character among
<code>%*?[]{}</code> that is preceded by an unescaped "%", the pattern is
interpreted like a <code>glob()</code> pattern, otherwise it is interpreted
like a sequence pattern.
</p>
<p>All glob special characters <code>%*?[]{}</code> must be prefixed
with "%". To escape a literal "%" you shall use "%%".
</p>
<p>For example the pattern <code>foo-%*.jpeg</code> will match all the
filenames prefixed by "foo-" and terminating with ".jpeg", and
<code>foo-%?%?%?.jpeg</code> will match all the filenames prefixed with
"foo-", followed by a sequence of three characters, and terminating
with ".jpeg".
</p>
<p>This pattern type is deprecated in favor of <var>glob</var> and
<var>sequence</var>.
</p></dd>
</dl>
<p>Default value is <var>glob_sequence</var>.
</p></dd>
<dt><span><samp>pixel_format</samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>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.
</p></dd>
<dt><span><samp>start_number</samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>Set the index of the file matched by the image file pattern to start
to read from. Default value is 0.
</p></dd>
<dt><span><samp>start_number_range</samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>Set the index interval range to check when looking for the first image
file in the sequence, starting from <var>start_number</var>. Default value
is 5.
</p></dd>
<dt><span><samp>ts_from_file</samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>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

If set to 2, will set frame timestamp to the modification time of the image file in
nanosecond precision.

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

16-bit raw audio and video frames to raw video before computing the
CRC.
</p>
<p>The output of the muxer consists of a single line of the form:
CRC=0x<var>CRC</var>, where <var>CRC</var> is a hexadecimal number 0-padded to
8 digits containing the CRC for all the decoded input frames.

<p>The fifo pseudo-muxer allows the separation of encoding and muxing by using
first-in-first-out queue and running the actual muxer in a separate thread. This

<p>Image file muxer.
</p>
<p>The image file muxer writes video frames to image files.
</p>
<p>The output filenames are specified by a pattern, which can be used to
produce sequentially numbered series of files.
The pattern may contain the string "%d" or "%0<var>N</var>d", this string
specifies the position of the characters representing a numbering in
the filenames. If the form "%0<var>N</var>d" is used, the string
representing the number in each filename is 0-padded to <var>N</var>
digits. The literal character ’%’ can be specified in the pattern with
the string "%%".
</p>
<p>If the pattern contains "%d" or "%0<var>N</var>d", the first filename of
the file list specified will contain the number 1, all the following
numbers will be sequential.
</p>
<p>The pattern may contain a suffix which is used to automatically
determine the format of the image files to write.
</p>
<p>For example the pattern "img-%03d.bmp" will specify a sequence of
filenames of the form <samp>img-001.bmp</samp>, <samp>img-002.bmp</samp>, ...,
<samp>img-010.bmp</samp>, etc.
The pattern "img%%-%d.jpg" will specify a sequence of filenames of the
form <samp>img%-1.jpg</samp>, <samp>img%-2.jpg</samp>, ..., <samp>img%-10.jpg</samp>,
etc.
</p>
<p>The image muxer supports the .Y.U.V image file format. This format is
special in that that each image frame consists of three files, for
each of the YUV420P components. To read or write this image file format,
specify the name of the ’.Y’ file. The muxer will automatically open the
’.U’ and ’.V’ files as required.

<p>The following example shows how to use <code>ffmpeg</code> for creating a
sequence of files <samp>img-001.jpeg</samp>, <samp>img-002.jpeg</samp>, ...,
taking one image every second from the input video:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">ffmpeg -i in.avi -vsync cfr -r 1 -f image2 'img-%03d.jpeg'
</pre></div>
<p>Note that with <code>ffmpeg</code>, if the format is not specified with the
<code>-f</code> option and the output filename specifies an image file
format, the image2 muxer is automatically selected, so the previous
command can be written as:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">ffmpeg -i in.avi -vsync cfr -r 1 'img-%03d.jpeg'
</pre></div>
<p>Note also that the pattern must not necessarily contain "%d" or
"%0<var>N</var>d", for example to create a single image file
<samp>img.jpeg</samp> from the start of the input video you can employ the command:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">ffmpeg -i in.avi -f image2 -frames:v 1 img.jpeg
</pre></div>
<p>The <samp>strftime</samp> option allows you to expand the filename with
date and time information. Check the documentation of
the <code>strftime()</code> function for the syntax.
</p>
<p>For example to generate image files from the <code>strftime()</code>
"%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S" pattern, the following <code>ffmpeg</code> command
can be used:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">ffmpeg -f v4l2 -r 1 -i /dev/video0 -f image2 -strftime 1 "%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S.jpg"
</pre></div>
<p>You can set the file name with current frame’s PTS:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">ffmpeg -f v4l2 -r 1 -i /dev/video0 -copyts -f image2 -frame_pts true %d.jpg"
</pre></div>
<p>A more complex example is to publish contents of your desktop directly to a
WebDAV server every second:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">ffmpeg -f x11grab -framerate 1 -i :0.0 -q:v 6 -update 1 -protocol_opts method=PUT http://example.com/desktop.jpg

<p>MOV/MP4/ISMV (Smooth Streaming) muxer.
</p>
<p>The mov/mp4/ismv muxer supports fragmentation. Normally, a MOV/MP4
file has all the metadata about all packets stored in one location
(written at the end of the file, it can be moved to the start for
better playback by adding <var>faststart</var> to the <var>movflags</var>, or
using the <code>qt-faststart</code> tool). A fragmented
file consists of a number of fragments, where packets and metadata
about these packets are stored together. Writing a fragmented
file has the advantage that the file is decodable even if the
writing is interrupted (while a normal MOV/MP4 is undecodable if
it is not properly finished), and it requires less memory when writing
very long files (since writing normal MOV/MP4 files stores info about
every single packet in memory until the file is closed). The downside
is that it is less compatible with other applications.

<p>Fragmentation is enabled by setting one of the AVOptions that define
how to cut the file into fragments:
</p>
<dl compact="compact">
<dt><span><samp>-moov_size <var>bytes</var></samp></span></dt>

</p></dd>
<dt><span><samp>-min_frag_duration <var>duration</var></samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>Don’t create fragments that are shorter than <var>duration</var> microseconds long.

</dl>
<p>If more than one condition is specified, fragments are cut when
one of the specified conditions is fulfilled. The exception to this is
<code>-min_frag_duration</code>, which has to be fulfilled for any of the other
conditions to apply.
</p>
<p>Additionally, the way the output file is written can be adjusted
through a few other options:
</p>
<dl compact="compact">
<dt><span><samp>-movflags empty_moov</samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>Write an initial moov atom directly at the start of the file, without
describing any samples in it. Generally, an mdat/moov pair is written
at the start of the file, as a normal MOV/MP4 file, containing only
a short portion of the file. With this option set, there is no initial
mdat atom, and the moov atom only describes the tracks but has
a zero duration.
</p>
<p>This option is implicitly set when writing ismv (Smooth Streaming) files.
</p></dd>
<dt><span><samp>-movflags separate_moof</samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>Write a separate moof (movie fragment) atom for each track. Normally,
packets for all tracks are written in a moof atom (which is slightly
more efficient), but with this option set, the muxer writes one moof/mdat
pair for each track, making it easier to separate tracks.

</p></dd>
<dt><span><samp>-movflags faststart</samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>Run a second pass moving the index (moov atom) to the beginning of the file.
This operation can take a while, and will not work in various situations such

<dt><span><samp>-movflags disable_chpl</samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>Disable Nero chapter markers (chpl atom). Normally, both Nero chapters
and a QuickTime chapter track are written to the file. With this option
set, only the QuickTime chapter track will be written. Nero chapters can
cause failures when the file is reprocessed with certain tagging programs, like
mp3Tag 2.61a and iTunes 11.3, most likely other versions are affected as well.
</p></dd>
<dt><span><samp>-movflags omit_tfhd_offset</samp></span></dt>

<dt><span><samp>-movflags default_base_moof</samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>Similarly to the omit_tfhd_offset, this flag avoids writing the
absolute base_data_offset field in tfhd atoms, but does so by using
the new default-base-is-moof flag instead. This flag is new from
14496-12:2012. This may make the fragments easier to parse in certain
circumstances (avoiding basing track fragment location calculations
on the implicit end of the previous track fragment).

</p></dd>
<dt><span><samp>-movflags negative_cts_offsets</samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>Enables utilization of version 1 of the CTTS box, in which the CTS offsets can
be negative. This enables the initial sample to have DTS/CTS of zero, and
reduces the need for edit lists for some cases such as video tracks with
B-frames. Additionally, eases conformance with the DASH-IF interoperability
guidelines.
</p>
<p>This option is implicitly set when writing ismv (Smooth Streaming) files.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><span><samp>-write_btrt <var>bool</var></samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>Force or disable writing bitrate box inside stsd box of a track.
The box contains decoding buffer size (in bytes), maximum bitrate and
average bitrate for the track. The box will be skipped if none of these values
can be computed.
Default is <code>-1</code> or <code>auto</code>, which will write the box only in MP4 mode.

<dt><span><samp>-write_prft</samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>Write producer time reference box (PRFT) with a specified time source for the
NTP field in the PRFT box. Set value as ‘<samp>wallclock</samp>’ to specify timesource
as wallclock time and ‘<samp>pts</samp>’ to specify timesource as input packets’ PTS
values.
</p>
<p>Setting value to ‘<samp>pts</samp>’ is applicable only for a live encoding use case,
where PTS values are set as as wallclock time at the source. For example, an
encoding use case with decklink capture source where <samp>video_pts</samp> and

<p>The MP3 muxer writes a raw MP3 stream with the following optional features:
</p><ul>
<li> An ID3v2 metadata header at the beginning (enabled by default). Versions 2.3 and
2.4 are supported, the <code>id3v2_version</code> private option controls which one is
used (3 or 4). Setting <code>id3v2_version</code> to 0 disables the ID3v2 header
completely.
<p>The muxer supports writing attached pictures (APIC frames) to the ID3v2 header.
The pictures are supplied to the muxer in form of a video stream with a single
packet. There can be any number of those streams, each will correspond to a
single APIC frame. The stream metadata tags <var>title</var> and <var>comment</var> map
to APIC <var>description</var> and <var>picture type</var> respectively. See
<a href="http://id3.org/id3v2.4.0-frames">http://id3.org/id3v2.4.0-frames</a> for allowed picture types.
</p>
<p>Note that the APIC frames must be written at the beginning, so the muxer will
buffer the audio frames until it gets all the pictures. It is therefore advised
to provide the pictures as soon as possible to avoid excessive buffering.
</p>
</li><li> A Xing/LAME frame right after the ID3v2 header (if present). It is enabled by
default, but will be written only if the output is seekable. The
<code>write_xing</code> private option can be used to disable it. The frame contains
various information that may be useful to the decoder, like the audio duration
or encoder delay.
</li><li> A legacy ID3v1 tag at the end of the file (disabled by default). It may be
enabled with the <code>write_id3v1</code> private option, but as its capabilities are
very limited, its usage is not recommended.
</li></ul>
<p>Examples:
</p>
<p>Write an mp3 with an ID3v2.3 header and an ID3v1 footer:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">ffmpeg -i INPUT -id3v2_version 3 -write_id3v1 1 out.mp3
</pre></div>
<p>To attach a picture to an mp3 file select both the audio and the picture stream
with <code>map</code>:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">ffmpeg -i input.mp3 -i cover.png -c copy -map 0 -map 1
-metadata:s:v title="Album cover" -metadata:s:v comment="Cover (Front)" out.mp3
</pre></div>
<p>Write a "clean" MP3 without any extra features:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">ffmpeg -i input.wav -write_xing 0 -id3v2_version 0 out.mp3

<p>Basic stream segmenter.
</p>
<p>This muxer outputs streams to a number of separate files of nearly
fixed duration. Output filename pattern can be set in a fashion
similar to <a href="#image2">image2</a>, or by using a <code>strftime</code> template if
the <samp>strftime</samp> option is enabled.
</p>
<p><code>stream_segment</code> is a variant of the muxer used to write to
streaming output formats, i.e. which do not require global headers,
and is recommended for outputting e.g. to MPEG transport stream segments.
<code>ssegment</code> is a shorter alias for <code>stream_segment</code>.
</p>
<p>Every segment starts with a keyframe of the selected reference stream,
which is set through the <samp>reference_stream</samp> option.
</p>
<p>Note that if you want accurate splitting for a video file, you need to
make the input key frames correspond to the exact splitting times
expected by the segmenter, or the segment muxer will start the new
segment with the key frame found next after the specified start
time.
</p>
<p>The segment muxer works best with a single constant frame rate video.
</p>
<p>Optionally it can generate a list of the created segments, by setting
the option <var>segment_list</var>. The list type is specified by the
<var>segment_list_type</var> option. The entry filenames in the segment
list are set by default to the basename of the corresponding segment
files.
</p>
<p>See also the <a href="#hls">hls</a> muxer, which provides a more specific
implementation for HLS segmentation.

<p>The segment muxer supports the following options:
</p>
<dl compact="compact">
<dt><span><samp>increment_tc <var>1|0</var></samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>if set to <code>1</code>, increment timecode between each segment

<code>0</code>.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><span><samp>reference_stream <var>specifier</var></samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>Set the reference stream, as specified by the string <var>specifier</var>.
If <var>specifier</var> is set to <code>auto</code>, the reference is chosen
automatically. Otherwise it must be a stream specifier (see the “Stream

reference stream. The default value is <code>auto</code>.

</dd>
<dt><span><samp>segment_clocktime_wrap_duration <var>duration</var></samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>Force the segmenter to only start a new segment if a packet reaches the muxer
within the specified duration after the segmenting clock time. This way you
can make the segmenter more resilient to backward local time jumps, such as
leap seconds or transition to standard time from daylight savings time.

<dd><p>Specify the accuracy time when selecting the start time for a

<p>When delta is specified a key-frame will start a new segment if its
PTS satisfies the relation:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">PTS >= start_time - time_delta
</pre></div>
<p>This option is useful when splitting video content, which is always
split at GOP boundaries, in case a key frame is found just before the
specified split time.
</p>
<p>In particular may be used in combination with the <samp>ffmpeg</samp> option
<var>force_key_frames</var>. The key frame times specified by
<var>force_key_frames</var> may not be set accurately because of rounding
issues, with the consequence that a key frame time may result set just
before the specified time. For constant frame rate videos a value of
1/(2*<var>frame_rate</var>) should address the worst case mismatch between
the specified time and the time set by <var>force_key_frames</var>.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><span><samp>segment_times <var>times</var></samp></span></dt>

of the frame is greater or equal to the next value in the list.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><span><samp>segment_wrap <var>limit</var></samp></span></dt>

<dt><span><samp>break_non_keyframes <var>1|0</var></samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>If enabled, allow segments to start on frames other than keyframes. This

</dd>
<dt><span><samp>reset_timestamps <var>1|0</var></samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>Reset timestamps at the beginning of each segment, so that each segment
will start with near-zero timestamps. It is meant to ease the playback
of the generated segments. May not work with some combinations of
muxers/codecs. It is set to <code>0</code> by default.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><span><samp>initial_offset <var>offset</var></samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>Specify timestamp offset to apply to the output packet timestamps. The

</dd>
<dt><span><samp>write_empty_segments <var>1|0</var></samp></span></dt>
<dd><p>If enabled, write an empty segment if there are no packets during the period a

<p>Per stream hash testing format.
</p>
<p>This muxer computes and prints a cryptographic hash of all the input frames,
on a per-stream basis. This can be used for equality checks without having
to do a complete binary comparison.
</p>
<p>By default audio frames are converted to signed 16-bit raw audio and
video frames to raw video before computing the hash, but the output
of explicit conversions to other codecs can also be used. Timestamps
are ignored. It uses the SHA-256 cryptographic hash function by default,
but supports several other algorithms.
</p>
<p>The output of the muxer consists of one line per stream of the form:
<var>streamindex</var>,<var>streamtype</var>,<var>algo</var>=<var>hash</var>, where
<var>streamindex</var> is the index of the mapped stream, <var>streamtype</var> is a
single character indicating the type of stream, <var>algo</var> is a short string
representing the hash function used, and <var>hash</var> is a hexadecimal number
representing the computed hash.

<p>The tee muxer can be used to write the same data to several outputs, such as files or streams.
It can be used, for example, to stream a video over a network and save it to disk at the same time.
</p>
<p>It is different from specifying several outputs to the <code>ffmpeg</code>
command-line tool. With the tee muxer, the audio and video data will be encoded only once.
With conventional multiple outputs, multiple encoding operations in parallel are initiated,
which can be a very expensive process. The tee muxer is not useful when using the libavformat API
directly because it is then possible to feed the same packets to several muxers directly.
</p>
<p>Since the tee muxer does not represent any particular output format, ffmpeg cannot auto-select
output streams. So all streams intended for output must be specified using <code>-map</code>. See
the examples below.
</p>
<p>Some encoders may need different options depending on the output format;
the auto-detection of this can not work with the tee muxer, so they need to be explicitly specified.
The main example is the <samp>global_header</samp> flag.
</p>
<p>The slave outputs are specified in the file name given to the muxer,
separated by ’|’. If any of the slave name contains the ’|’ separator,
leading or trailing spaces or any special character, those must be
escaped (see <a data-manual="ffmpeg-utils" href="ffmpeg-utils.html#quoting_005fand_005fescaping">(ffmpeg-utils)the "Quoting and escaping"
section in the ffmpeg-utils(1) manual</a>).

</p>
<p>If the stream specifier is not specified, the bitstream filters will be
applied to all streams in the output. This will cause that output operation
to fail if the output contains streams to which the bitstream filter cannot
be applied e.g. <code>h264_mp4toannexb</code> being applied to an output containing an audio stream.

<p>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.
</p>
<p>The file format is as follows:
</p><ol>
<li> A file consists of a header and a number of metadata tags divided into sections,
each on its own line.
</li><li> The header is a ‘<samp>;FFMETADATA</samp>’ string, followed by a version number (now 1).
</li><li> Metadata tags are of the form ‘<samp>key=value</samp>’
</li><li> Immediately after header follows global metadata
</li><li> After global metadata there may be sections with per-stream/per-chapter
metadata.
</li><li> A section starts with the section name in uppercase (i.e. STREAM or CHAPTER) in
brackets (‘<samp>[</samp>’, ‘<samp>]</samp>’) and ends with next section or end of file.
</li><li> 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
‘<samp>TIMEBASE=<var>num</var>/<var>den</var></samp>’, where <var>num</var> and <var>den</var> are
integers. If the timebase is missing then start/end times are assumed to
be in nanoseconds.
<p>Next a chapter section must contain chapter start and end times in form
‘<samp>START=<var>num</var></samp>’, ‘<samp>END=<var>num</var></samp>’, where <var>num</var> is a positive
integer.
</p>
</li><li> Empty lines and lines starting with ‘<samp>;</samp>’ or ‘<samp>#</samp>’ are ignored.
</li><li> Metadata keys or values containing special characters (‘<samp>=</samp>’, ‘<samp>;</samp>’,
‘<samp>#</samp>’, ‘<samp>\</samp>’ and a newline) must be escaped with a backslash ‘<samp>\</samp>’.
</li><li> Note that whitespace in metadata (e.g. ‘<samp>foo = bar</samp>’) is considered to be
a part of the tag (in the example above key is ‘<samp>foo </samp>’, value is
‘<samp> bar</samp>’).
</li></ol>
<p>A ffmetadata file might look like this:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">;FFMETADATA1

</pre></div>
<p>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.
</p>
<p>Extracting an ffmetadata file with <samp>ffmpeg</samp> goes as follows:
</p><div class="example">
<pre class="example">ffmpeg -i INPUT -f ffmetadata FFMETADATAFILE

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