< li > Added FFAudioRefSource< / li >
< li > Added FFAudioSource (has big issues)< / li >
< li > Renamed FFmpegSource to FFVideoSource< / li >

Track number as seen by the relevant demuxer, starts from 0, -1 means it will pick the first suitable track and -2 means it's disabled.

See the table below for a full description, an empty string means no processing. It is recommended to avoid the autoq option since it's currently unknown what effect it will have on the processing.

< b > ppquality:< / b >
The quality to use for the specified postprocessing. Valid values are 0-6 where 0 usually means that no actual processing is done.

< b > seekmode:< / b >
Force how seeking is handled, has no effect on matroska files which always use the equivalent of seekmode=1< br / >
< b > 0:< / b > linear access, the definition of slow but should make some formats "usable"< br / >
< b > 1:< / b > safe normal, bases seeking decisions on the reported keyframe positions< br / >
< b > 2:< / b > unsafe normal, same as 1 but no error will be thrown if the exact destination has to be guessed< br / >
< b > 3:< / b > aggressive, seek in the forward direction even if no closer keyframe is known to exist, only useful for testing and containers where avformat doesn't report keyframes properly

Available postprocessing filters:
Filters Options
short long name short long option Description
* * a autoq CPU power dependent enabler
c chrom chrominance filtering enabled
y nochrom chrominance filtering disabled
n noluma luma filtering disabled
hb hdeblock (2 threshold) horizontal deblocking filter
1. difference factor: default=32, higher -> more deblocking
2. flatness threshold: default=39, lower -> more deblocking
the h & v deblocking filters share these
so you can't set different thresholds for h / v
vb vdeblock (2 threshold) vertical deblocking filter
ha hadeblock (2 threshold) horizontal deblocking filter
va vadeblock (2 threshold) vertical deblocking filter
h1 x1hdeblock experimental h deblock filter 1

dr dering deringing filter
