@c man end FORMAT OPTIONS
@anchor{Format stream specifiers}
@section Format stream specifiers
Format stream specifiers allow selection of one or more streams that
match specific properties.
Possible forms of stream specifiers are:
@table @option
@item @var{stream_index}
Matches the stream with this index.
@item @var{stream_type}[:@var{stream_index}]
@var{stream_type} is one of following: 'v' for video, 'a' for audio,
's' for subtitle, 'd' for data, and 't' for attachments. If
@var{stream_index} is given, then it matches the stream number
@var{stream_index} of this type. Otherwise, it matches all streams of
this type.
@item p:@var{program_id}[:@var{stream_index}]
If @var{stream_index} is given, then it matches the stream with number
@var{stream_index} in the program with the id
@var{program_id}. Otherwise, it matches all streams in the program.
@item #@var{stream_id}
Matches the stream by a format-specific ID.
@end table
The exact semantics of stream specifiers is defined by the
@code{avformat_match_stream_specifier()} function declared in the
@file{libavformat/avformat.h} header.
