Many filters accept user-provided data that is cumbersome to provide as
text strings - e.g. binary files or very long text. For that reason such
filters typically provide a option whose value is the path from which
the filter loads the actual data.
However, filters doing their own IO internally is a layering violation
that the callers may not expect, and is thus best avoided. With the
recently introduced graph segment parsing API, loading option values
from files can now be handled by the caller.
This commit makes use of the new API in ffmpeg CLI. Any option name in
the filtergraph syntax can now be prefixed with a slash '/'. This will
cause ffmpeg to interpret the value as the path to load the actual value
from.
Callers currently have two ways of adding filters to a graph - they can
either
- create, initialize, and link them manually
- use one of the avfilter_graph_parse*() functions, which take a
(typically end-user-written) string, split it into individual filter
definitions+options, then create filters, apply options, initialize
filters, and finally link them - all based on information from this
string.
A major problem with the second approach is that it performs many
actions as a single atomic unit, leaving the caller no space to
intervene in between. Such intervention would be useful e.g. to
- modify filter options;
- supply hardware device contexts;
both of which typically must be done before the filter is initialized.
Callers who need such intervention are then forced to invent their own
filtergraph parsing, which is clearly suboptimal.
This commit aims to address this problem by adding a new modular
filtergraph parsing API. It adds a new avfilter_graph_segment_parse()
function to parse a string filtergraph description into an intermediate
tree-like representation (AVFilterGraphSegment and its children).
This intermediate form may then be applied step by step using further
new avfilter_graph_segment*() functions, with user intervention possible
between each step.

libavutil/color_utils contains some avpriv_ symbols that map
enum AVTransferCharacteristic values to gamma-curve approximations and
to the actual transfer functions to invert them (i.e. -> linear).
There's two issues with this:
(1) avpriv is evil and should be avoided whenever possible
(2) libavutil/csp.h exposes a public API for handling color that
already handles primaries and matricies
I don't see any reason this API has to be private, so this commit takes
the functionality from avutil/color_utils and merges it into avutil/csp
with an exposed av_ API rather than the previous avpriv_ API.
Every reference to the previous API has been updated to point to the
new one. color_utils.h has been deleted as well. This should not break
any applications as it only contained avpriv_ symbols in the first
place, so nothing in that header could be referenced by other
applications.

Splits the currently handled subtitle at random access point
packets that can be configured to follow a specific output stream.
Currently only subtitle streams which are directly mapped into the
same output in which the heartbeat stream resides are affected.
This way the subtitle - which is known to be shown at this time
can be split and passed to muxer before its full duration is
yet known. This is also a drawback, as this essentially outputs
multiple subtitles from a single input subtitle that continues
over multiple random access points. Thus this feature should not
be utilized in cases where subtitle output latency does not matter.

encoders will be supported in future commits.
This reverts commit dea673d0d5.
This change cannot work for several reasons, the most obvious ones are:
- the alpha is being part of the scoring of the color difference, even
though we can not interpret the alpha as part of the perception of the
color (we don't even know if it's premultiplied or postmultiplied)
- the colors are averaged with their alpha value which simply cannot
work
The command proposed in the original thread of the patch actually
produces a completely broken file:
ffmpeg -y -loglevel verbose -i fate-suite/apng/o_sample.png -filter_complex "split[split1][split2];[split1]palettegen=max_colors=254:use_alpha=1[pal1];[split2][pal1]paletteuse=use_alpha=1" -frames:v 1 out.png
We can see that many color pixels are off, but more importantly some
colors have a random alpha value: https://imgur.com/eFQ2UK7
I don't see any easy fix for this unfortunately, the approach appears to
be flawed by design.
New option can be used to avoid creating very short segments with inputs
whose GOP size is variable or unharmonic with segment_time.
Only effective with segment_time.

VP6 alpha in EA format is a second VP6 encoded video stream where only the Y
component is used and is interpreted as the alpha channel of the first VP6
stream. The alpha VP6 stream is muxed separately from the main VP6 stream, has
its own stream headers and packet headers. In theory the two streams might not
even have the same resolution (although most likely that is not something that
is seen or supported in the wild), but the format is capable of doing it.
Merged VP6 alpha (also known as the VP6A codec) means that a packet of the
video stream contains the corresponding packet of both VP6 substreams like
this:
{OffsetOfAlpha, DataPacket, AlphaDataPacket}
So data and alpha data of a frame is merged to a single packet, this is how VP6
video with alpha is muxed in FLV and SWF.
The first approach is more like how the demuxer sees data in the EA format,
unfortunately it is different to what the FLV or SWF format expects, so -
having no better place for it in the framework - I decided to do an optional
format conversion in the EA demuxer.

summary: This patch modifies the `curves` filter with new `interp` option
to let user pick the existing natural cubic spline interpolation
and the new PCHIP interapolation.
reason: The natural cubic spline does not impose monotonicity between
the keypoints. As such, the fitted curve may vary wildly against
user's intension. The PCHIP interpolation is not as smooth as
the natural spline but guarantees the monotonicity. Providing
both options enhances users experience (e.g., reduces the number
of keypoints to realize the desired curve). See the related bug
report for the example of an ill-interpolated curve.
alternate solution:
Both Photoshop and GIMP appear to use monotonic interpolation in
their curve tools, which were the models for this filter. As
such, an alternate solution is to drop the natural spline and
go without the `interp` option.

It has been deprecated in favor of the aresample filter for almost 10
years.
Another thing this option can do is drop audio timestamps and have them
generated by the encoding code or the muxer, but
- for encoding, this can already be done with the setpts filter
- for muxing this should almost never be done as timestamp generation by
the muxer is deprecated, but people who really want to do this can use
the setts bitstream filter

trash padding inside structures as they wish.

fails in ff_cbs_write_packet(), because the inferred value
of num_ref_idx_l0_active_minus1 mismatches with the value set
in the slice (this happens when num_ref_idx_l0_default_active_minus1
changes in the PPS; the value in the slice header is inferred from
the original PPS's num_ref_idx_l0_default_active_minus1).

These are the formats we want/need to use when dealing with the Intel
VAAPI decoder for 12bit 4:2:0, 12bit 4:2:2, 10bit 4:4:4 and 12bit 4:4:4
respectively.
As with the already supported Y210 and YUVX (XVUY) formats, they are
based on formats Microsoft picked as their preferred 4:2:2 and 4:4:4
video formats, and Intel ran with it.
P12 and Y212 are simply an extension of 10 bit formats to say 12 bits
will be used, with 4 unused bits instead of 6.
XV30, and XV36, as exotic as they sound, are variants of Y410 and Y412
where the alpha channel is left formally undefined. We prefer these
over the alpha versions because the hardware cannot actually do
anything with the alpha channel and respecting it is just overhead.
Y412/XV46 is a normal looking packed 4 channel format where each
channel is 16bits wide but only the 12msb are used (like P012).
Y410/XV30 packs three 10bit channels in 32bits with 2bits of alpha,
like A/X2RGB10 style formats. This annoying layout forced me to define
the BE version as a bitstream format. It seems like our pixdesc
infrastructure can handle the LE version being byte-defined, but not
when it's reversed. If there's a better way to handle this, please
let me know. Our existing X2 formats all have the 2 bits at the MSB
end, but this format places them at the LSB end and that seems to be
the root of the problem.

but the attribute_deprecated was not set and there was no entry

The "AYUV" format is defined by Microsoft as their preferred format for

As Microsoft like to define their byte ordering in little-endian
fashion, the memory order is reversed, and so our pix_fmt, which
follows memory order, has a reversed name (VUYA).
This functionally already exists, but as pointed out in #9672 and #9673,
requiring users to manually include filters is clumsy, error-prone and
hard to use together with tools like ffplay.

The -shortest option (which finishes the output file at the time the
shortest stream ends) is currently implemented by faking the -t option
when an output stream ends. This approach is fragile, since it depends
on the frames/packets being processed in a specific order. E.g. there
are currently some situations in which the output file length will
depend unpredictably on unrelated factors like encoder delay. More
importantly, the present work aiming at splitting various ffmpeg
components into different threads will make this approach completely
unworkable, since the frames/packets will arrive in effectively random
order.
This commit introduces a "sync queue", which is essentially a collection
of FIFOs, one per stream. Frames/packets are submitted to these FIFOs
and are then released for further processing (encoding or muxing) when
it is ensured that the frame in question will not cause its stream to
get ahead of the other streams (the logic is similar to libavformat's
interleaving queue).
These sync queues are then used for encoding and/or muxing when the
-shortest option is specified.
A new option – -shortest_buf_duration – controls the maximum number of
queued packets, to avoid runaway memory usage.
This commit changes the results of the following tests:
- copy-shortest[12]: the last audio frame is now gone. This is
correct, since it actually outlasts the last video frame.
- shortest-sub: the video packets following the last subtitle packet are
now gone. This is also correct.
