@chapter Audio Filters
@c man begin AUDIO FILTERS
When you configure your FFmpeg build, you can disable any of the
existing filters using --disable-filters.
The configure output will show the audio filters included in your
build.
Below is a description of the currently available audio filters.
@section anull
Pass the audio source unchanged to the output.
@c man end AUDIO FILTERS
@chapter Video Filters
@c man begin VIDEO FILTERS
When you configure your FFmpeg build, you can disable any of the
existing filters using --disable-filters.
The configure output will show the video filters included in your
build.
Below is a description of the currently available video filters.
@section crop
Crop the input video to @var{x}:@var{y}:@var{width}:@var{height}.
@example
./ffmpeg -i in.avi -vf "crop=0:0:0:240" out.avi
@end example
@var{x} and @var{y} specify the position of the top-left corner of the
output (non-cropped) area.
The default value of @var{x} and @var{y} is 0.
The @var{width} and @var{height} parameters specify the width and height
of the output (non-cropped) area.
A value of 0 is interpreted as the maximum possible size contained in
the area delimited by the top-left corner at position x:y.
For example the parameters:
@example
"crop=100:100:0:0"
@end example
will delimit the rectangle with the top-left corner placed at position
100:100 and the right-bottom corner corresponding to the right-bottom
corner of the input image.
The default value of @var{width} and @var{height} is 0.
@section fifo
Buffer input images and send them when they are requested.
This filter is mainly useful when auto-inserted by the libavfilter
framework.
The filter does not take parameters.
@section format
Convert the input video to one of the specified pixel formats.
Libavfilter will try to pick one that is supported for the input to
the next filter.
The filter accepts a list of pixel format names, separated by ":",
for example "yuv420p:monow:rgb24".
The following command:
@example
./ffmpeg -i in.avi -vf "format=yuv420p" out.avi
@end example
will convert the input video to the format "yuv420p".
@section frei0r
Apply a frei0r effect to the input video.
To enable compilation of this filter you need to install the frei0r
header and configure FFmpeg with --enable-frei0r.
The filter supports the syntax:
@example
@var{filter_name}:@var{param1}:@var{param2}:...:@var{paramN}
@end example
@var{filter_name} is the name to the frei0r effect to load. If the
environment variable @env{FREI0R_PATH} is defined, the frei0r effect
is searched in each one of the directories specified by the colon
separated list in @env{FREIOR_PATH}, otherwise in the standard frei0r
paths, which are in this order: @file{HOME/.frei0r-1/lib/},
@file{/usr/local/lib/frei0r-1/}, @file{/usr/lib/frei0r-1/}.
@var{param1}, @var{param2}, ... , @var{paramN} specify the parameters
for the frei0r effect.
A frei0r effect parameter can be a boolean (whose values are specified
with "y" and "n"), a double, a color (specified by the syntax
@var{R}/@var{G}/@var{B}, @var{R}, @var{G}, and @var{B} being float
numbers from 0.0 to 1.0) or by an @code{av_parse_color()} color
description), a position (specified by the syntax @var{X}/@var{Y},
@var{X} and @var{Y} being float numbers) and a string.
The number and kind of parameters depend on the loaded effect. If an
effect parameter is not specified the default value is set.
Some examples follow:
@example
# apply the distort0r effect, set the first two double parameters
frei0r=distort0r:0.5:0.01
# apply the colordistance effect, takes a color as first parameter
frei0r=colordistance:0.2/0.3/0.4
frei0r=colordistance:violet
frei0r=colordistance:0x112233
# apply the perspective effect, specify the top left and top right
# image positions
frei0r=perspective:0.2/0.2:0.8/0.2
@end example
For more information see:
@url{http://piksel.org/frei0r}
@section hflip
Flip the input video horizontally.
For example to horizontally flip the video in input with
@file{ffmpeg}:
@example
ffmpeg -i in.avi -vf "hflip" out.avi
@end example
@section noformat
Force libavfilter not to use any of the specified pixel formats for the
input to the next filter.
The filter accepts a list of pixel format names, separated by ":",
for example "yuv420p:monow:rgb24".
The following command:
@example
./ffmpeg -i in.avi -vf "noformat=yuv420p, vflip" out.avi
@end example
will make libavfilter use a format different from "yuv420p" for the
input to the vflip filter.
@section null
Pass the video source unchanged to the output.
@section ocv_smooth
Apply smooth transform using libopencv.
To enable this filter install libopencv library and headers and
configure FFmpeg with --enable-libopencv.
The filter accepts the following parameters:
@var{type}:@var{param1}:@var{param2}:@var{param3}:@var{param4}.
@var{type} is the type of smooth filter to apply, and can be one of
the following values: "blur", "blur_no_scale", "median", "gaussian",
"bilateral". The default value is "gaussian".
@var{param1}, @var{param2}, @var{param3}, and @var{param4} are
parameters whose meanings depend on smooth type. @var{param1} and
@var{param2} accept integer positive values or 0, @var{param3} and
@var{param4} accept float values.
The default value for @var{param1} is 3, the default value for the
other parameters is 0.
These parameters correspond to the parameters assigned to the
libopencv function @code{cvSmooth}. Refer to the official libopencv
documentation for the exact meaning of the parameters:
@url{http://opencv.willowgarage.com/documentation/c/image_filtering.html}
@section pad
Add paddings to the input image, and places the original input at the
given coordinates @var{x}, @var{y}.
It accepts the following parameters:
@var{width}:@var{height}:@var{x}:@var{y}:@var{color}.
Follows the description of the accepted parameters.
@table @option
@item width, height
Specify the size of the output image with the paddings added. If the
value for @var{width} or @var{height} is 0, the corresponding input size
is used for the output.
The default value of @var{width} and @var{height} is 0.
@item x, y
Specify the offsets where to place the input image in the padded area
with respect to the top/left border of the output image.
The default value of @var{x} and @var{y} is 0.
@item color
Specify the color of the padded area, it can be the name of a color
(case insensitive match) or a 0xRRGGBB[AA] sequence.
The default value of @var{color} is "black".
@end table
@section pixdesctest
Pixel format descriptor test filter, mainly useful for internal
testing. The output video should be equal to the input video.
For example:
@example
format=monow, pixdesctest
@end example
can be used to test the monowhite pixel format descriptor definition.
@section scale
Scale the input video to @var{width}:@var{height} and/or convert the image format.
For example the command:
@example
./ffmpeg -i in.avi -vf "scale=200:100" out.avi
@end example
will scale the input video to a size of 200x100.
If the input image format is different from the format requested by
the next filter, the scale filter will convert the input to the
requested format.
If the value for @var{width} or @var{height} is 0, the respective input
size is used for the output.
If the value for @var{width} or @var{height} is -1, the scale filter will
use, for the respective output size, a value that maintains the aspect
ratio of the input image.
The default value of @var{width} and @var{height} is 0.
@section slicify
Pass the images of input video on to next video filter as multiple
slices.
@example
./ffmpeg -i in.avi -vf "slicify=32" out.avi
@end example
The filter accepts the slice height as parameter. If the parameter is
not specified it will use the default value of 16.
Adding this in the beginning of filter chains should make filtering
faster due to better use of the memory cache.
@section unsharp
Sharpen or blur the input video.
It accepts the following parameters:
@var{luma_msize_x}:@var{luma_msize_y}:@var{luma_amount}:@var{chroma_msize_x}:@var{chroma_msize_y}:@var{chroma_amount}
Negative values for the amount will blur the input video, while positive
values will sharpen. All parameters are optional and default to the
equivalent of the string '5:5:1.0:0:0:0.0'.
@table @option
@item luma_msize_x
Set the luma matrix horizontal size. It can be an integer between 3
and 13, default value is 5.
@item luma_msize_y
Set the luma matrix vertical size. It can be an integer between 3
and 13, default value is 5.
@item luma_amount
Set the luma effect strength. It can be a float number between -2.0
and 5.0, default value is 1.0.
@item chroma_msize_x
Set the chroma matrix horizontal size. It can be an integer between 3
and 13, default value is 0.
@item chroma_msize_y
Set the chroma matrix vertical size. It can be an integer between 3
and 13, default value is 0.
@item luma_amount
Set the chroma effect strength. It can be a float number between -2.0
and 5.0, default value is 0.0.
@end table
@example
# Strong luma sharpen effect parameters
unsharp=7:7:2.5
# Strong blur of both luma and chroma parameters
unsharp=7:7:-2:7:7:-2
# Use the default values with @command{ffmpeg}
./ffmpeg -i in.avi -vf "unsharp" out.mp4
@end example
@section vflip
Flip the input video vertically.
@example
./ffmpeg -i in.avi -vf "vflip" out.avi
@end example
@c man end VIDEO FILTERS
@chapter Video Sources
@c man begin VIDEO SOURCES
Below is a description of the currently available video sources.
@section buffer
Buffer video frames, and make them available to the filter chain.
This source is mainly intended for a programmatic use, in particular
through the interface defined in @file{libavfilter/vsrc_buffer.h}.
It accepts the following parameters:
@var{width}:@var{height}:@var{pix_fmt_string}
All the parameters need to be explicitely defined.
Follows the list of the accepted parameters.
@table @option
@item width, height
Specify the width and height of the buffered video frames.
@item pix_fmt_string
A string representing the pixel format of the buffered video frames.
It may be a number corresponding to a pixel format, or a pixel format
name.
@end table
For example:
@example
buffer=320:240:yuv410p
@end example
will instruct the source to accept video frames with size 320x240 and
with format "yuv410p". Since the pixel format with name "yuv410p"
corresponds to the number 6 (check the enum PixelFormat definition in
@file{libavutil/pixfmt.h}), this example corresponds to:
@example
buffer=320:240:6
@end example
@section color
Provide an uniformly colored input.
It accepts the following parameters:
@var{color}:@var{frame_size}:@var{frame_rate}
Follows the description of the accepted parameters.
@table @option
@item color
Specify the color of the source. It can be the name of a color (case
insensitive match) or a 0xRRGGBB[AA] sequence, possibly followed by an
alpha specifier. The default value is "black".
@item frame_size
Specify the size of the sourced video, it may be a string of the form
@var{width}x@var{heigth}, or the name of a size abbreviation. The
default value is "320x240".
@item frame_rate
Specify the frame rate of the sourced video, as the number of frames
generated per second. It has to be a string in the format
@var{frame_rate_num}/@var{frame_rate_den}, an integer number, a float
number or a valid video frame rate abbreviation. The default value is
"25".
@end table
For example the following graph description will generate a red source
with an opacity of 0.2, with size "qcif" and a frame rate of 10
frames per second, which will be overlayed over the source connected
to the pad with identifier "in".
@example
"color=red@@0.2:qcif:10 [color]; [in][color] overlay [out]"
@end example
@section nullsrc
Null video source, never return images. It is mainly useful as a
template and to be employed in analysis / debugging tools.
It accepts as optional parameter a string of the form
@var{width}:@var{height}, where @var{width} and @var{height} specify the size of
the configured source.
The default values of @var{width} and @var{height} are respectively 352
and 288 (corresponding to the CIF size format).
@c man end VIDEO SOURCES
@chapter Video Sinks
@c man begin VIDEO SINKS
Below is a description of the currently available video sinks.
@section nullsink
Null video sink, do absolutely nothing with the input video. It is
mainly useful as a template and to be employed in analysis / debugging
tools.
@c man end VIDEO SINKS
