The dshow avdevice ignores timestamps for video frames provided by the
DirectShow device, instead using wallclock time, apparently because the
implementer of this code had a device that provided unreliable
timestamps. Me (and others) would like to use the device's timestamps.
The new use_video_device_timestamps option for dshow device enables them
to do so. Since the majority of video devices out there probably provide
fine timestamps, this patch sets the default to using the device
timestamps, which means best fidelity timestamps are used by default.
Using the new option, the user can switch this off and revert to the old
behavior, so a fall back remains available in case the device provides
broken timestamps.
add use_video_device_timestamps to docs.
Closes: #8620

This patch adds a select_region option to the xcbgrab input device.
If set to 1, the user will be prompted to select the grabbing area
graphically by clicking and dragging. A rectangle will be drawn to
mark the grabbing area. A single click with no dragging will select
the whole screen. The option overwrites the video_size, grab_x, and
grab_y options if set by the user.
For testing, just set the select_region option as follows:
ffmpeg -f x11grab -select_region 1 -i :0.0 output.mp4
The drawing happens directly on the root window using standard rubber
banding techniques, so it is very efficient and doesn't depend on any
X extensions or compositors.

This option is useful for maintaining input synchronization across N
different hardware devices deployed for 'N-way' redundancy.
The system time of different hardware devices should be synchronized
with protocols such as NTP or PTP, before using this option.

If the user provides a valid timecode_format look for timecode of that
format in the capture and if found store it on the video avstream's
metadata.
Slightly modified by Marton Balint to capture per-frame timecode as well.
