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. |

FFmpeg README
FFmpeg is a collection of libraries and tools to process multimedia content such as audio, video, subtitles and related metadata.
Libraries
libavcodec
provides implementation of a wider range of codecs.libavformat
implements streaming protocols, container formats and basic I/O access.libavutil
includes hashers, decompressors and miscellaneous utility functions.libavfilter
provides means to alter decoded audio and video through a directed graph of connected filters.libavdevice
provides an abstraction to access capture and playback devices.libswresample
implements audio mixing and resampling routines.libswscale
implements color conversion and scaling routines.
Tools
- ffmpeg is a command line toolbox to manipulate, convert and stream multimedia content.
- ffplay is a minimalistic multimedia player.
- ffprobe is a simple analysis tool to inspect multimedia content.
- Additional small tools such as
aviocat
,ismindex
andqt-faststart
.
