Note, there +are many more new features and bugfixes than whats listed there. -From this release onwards, we have decided to drop the leading zero from our -release numbers. There were no plans of ever changing it, so it carried no -information. Thus this release is just a plain 9, the next will be 10 etc. - -A new library arrived in Libav during this development cycle -- its name is -libavresample and it handles audio conversion and mixing. All users are -encouraged to use it instead of the old, now deprecated, audio conversion -API in libavcodec. - -The libpostproc library now resides in a separate tree. It was fully independent -of the other Libav libraries, not used by any of the tools and saw very little -development. For these reasons we decided that it has no place in Libav. A -standalone Git tree is available at http://git.videolan.org/?p=libpostproc.git -for people wishing to use libpostproc. - -The major versions of the libavcodec, libavformat and libavfilter libraries have -been bumped, so they are not API or ABI compatible with the 0.8 release. The -ffmpeg transcoding tool, kept for compatibility in 0.8, has also been dropped. - -This release brings a number of significant changes in the libavfilter library. -Firstly, all the API dealing with filter internals is no longer public. The -result is that creating user-side filters will not be supported until -libavfilter is more mature. -Secondly, full audio filtering support is now available along with a set of -basic audio filters. We hope that their number will soon grow significantly. -The avconv transcoding tool has of course been extended to handle audio -filtering as well. -There were a number of other API changes, most importantly the addition of -the buffer sink public API. - -In the libavcodec library, one of the most notable changes is added support for -planar audio (i.e. not interleaved). Many decoders and encoders, that previously -did inefficient (de)interleaving internally, now only work with planar audio -formats. Libavresample can be used for optimized conversion between interleaved -and planar formats. - -Of big interest to our Windows users, Libav now supports building with the MSVC -compiler. Since MSVC does not support C99 features used extensively by Libav, -this has been accomplished using a converter that turns C99 code to C89. See the -platform-specific documentation for more detailed documentation on building -Libav with MSVC. - -As usual, this release also contains support for some new formats, many smaller -new features and countless bug fixes. We can highlight Opus decoding / encoding -through libopus, encoders for Apple ProRes and Ut Video, WMA Lossless and -RealAudio Lossless decoders, fragmented MOV/MP4 and ISMV (Smooth Streaming) -muxers, 24-bit FLAC encoding, a large number of RTMP improvements and support -for cover art in ID3v2, WMA, MP4 and FLAC. - -See the Changelog file for a list of significant changes. - -Please note that our policy on bug reports has not changed. We still only accept -bug reports against HEAD of the Libav trunk repository. If you are experiencing -issues with any formally released version of Libav, please try a current version -of the development code to check if the issue still exists. If it does, make -your report against the development code following the usual bug reporting +Bugreports against FFmpeg git master or the most recent FFmpeg release are +accepted. If you are experiencing issues with any formally released version of +FFmpeg, please try git master to check if the issue still exists. If it does, +make your report against the development code following the usual bug reporting guidelines. - - -API changes ------------ - -A number of additional APIs have been introduced and some existing functions -have been deprecated and are scheduled for removal in the next release. -Significant API changes include: - -[libavcodec]: -* New video encoding API, similar to the previously introduced audio encoding - API, which encodes from an AVFrame to an AVPacket, thus allowing it to - properly output timing information and side data. - -* All CODEC_ID_* symbols now carry AV_ prefixes. Non-prefixed codec IDs are - deprecated. - -* New codec descriptor API, which allows getting the properties of a given codec - (identified by its ID), without referring to a specific decoder or encoder. - -* An AVFrame must now be freed with a dedicated function, avcodec_free_frame(). - -[libavutil]: -* New audio FIFO API, which simplifies managing/merging/splitting audio buffers. - -* new int/float type punning API - -[libavfilter]: -* All filter internals were hidden. - -* audio filtering. - -* new buffer sink API for getting frames out of libavfilter. - -Please see the file doc/APIchanges for details along with similar -programmer-centric information. diff --git a/doc/authors.texi b/doc/authors.texi new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..6c8c1d7efa --- /dev/null +++ b/doc/authors.texi @@ -0,0 +1,11 @@ +@chapter Authors + +The FFmpeg developers. + +For details about the authorship, see the Git history of the project +(git://source.ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg), e.g. by typing the command +@command{git log} in the FFmpeg source directory, or browsing the +online repository at @url{http://source.ffmpeg.org}. + +Maintainers for the specific components are listed in the file +@file{MAINTAINERS} in the source code tree. diff --git a/doc/avplay.texi b/doc/avplay.texi deleted file mode 100644 index 50142ab282..0000000000 --- a/doc/avplay.texi +++ /dev/null @@ -1,180 +0,0 @@ -\input texinfo @c -*- texinfo -*- - -@settitle avplay Documentation -@titlepage -@center @titlefont{avplay Documentation} -@end titlepage - -@top - -@contents - -@chapter Synopsis - -@example -@c man begin SYNOPSIS -avplay [options] @file{input_file} -@c man end -@end example - -@chapter Description -@c man begin DESCRIPTION - -AVplay is a very simple and portable media player using the Libav -libraries and the SDL library.

For audio links, that means + channel layout, sample format (the sample packing is implied by the sample + format) and sample rate. + + The lists are not just lists, they are references to shared objects. When + the negotiation mechanism computes the intersection of the formats + supported at each end of a link, all references to both lists are replaced + with a reference to the intersection. And when a single format is + eventually chosen for a link amongst the remaining list, again, all + references to the list are updated. + + That means that if a filter requires that its input and output have the + same format amongst a supported list, all it has to do is use a reference + to the same list of formats. + + query_formats can leave some formats unset and return AVERROR(EAGAIN) to + cause the negotiation mechanism to try again later. That can be used by + filters with complex requirements to use the format negotiated on one link + to set the formats supported on another. + + +Buffer references ownership and permissions +=========================================== + + Principle + --------- + + Audio and video data are voluminous; the buffer and buffer reference + mechanism is intended to avoid, as much as possible, expensive copies of + that data while still allowing the filters to produce correct results. + + The data is stored in buffers represented by AVFilterBuffer structures. + They must not be accessed directly, but through references stored in + AVFilterBufferRef structures. Several references can point to the + same buffer; the buffer is automatically deallocated once all + corresponding references have been destroyed. + + The characteristics of the data (resolution, sample rate, etc.) are + stored in the reference; different references for the same buffer can + show different characteristics. In particular, a video reference can + point to only a part of a video buffer. + + A reference is usually obtained as input to the start_frame or + filter_frame method or requested using the ff_get_video_buffer or + ff_get_audio_buffer functions. A new reference on an existing buffer can + be created with the avfilter_ref_buffer. A reference is destroyed using + the avfilter_unref_bufferp function. + + Reference ownership + ------------------- + + At any time, a reference “belongs” to a particular piece of code, + usually a filter. With a few caveats that will be explained below, only + that piece of code is allowed to access it. It is also responsible for + destroying it, although this is sometimes done automatically (see the + section on link reference fields). + + Here are the (fairly obvious) rules for reference ownership: + + * A reference received by the filter_frame method (or its start_frame + deprecated version) belongs to the corresponding filter. + + Special exception: for video references: the reference may be used + internally for automatic copying and must not be destroyed before + end_frame; it can be given away to ff_start_frame. + + * A reference passed to ff_filter_frame (or the deprecated + ff_start_frame) is given away and must no longer be used. + + * A reference created with avfilter_ref_buffer belongs to the code that + created it. + + * A reference obtained with ff_get_video_buffer or ff_get_audio_buffer + belongs to the code that requested it. + + * A reference given as return value by the get_video_buffer or + get_audio_buffer method is given away and must no longer be used. + + Link reference fields + --------------------- + + The AVFilterLink structure has a few AVFilterBufferRef fields. The + cur_buf and out_buf were used with the deprecated + start_frame/draw_slice/end_frame API and should no longer be used. + src_buf, cur_buf_copy and partial_buf are used by libavfilter internally + and must not be accessed by filters. + + Reference permissions + --------------------- + + The AVFilterBufferRef structure has a perms field that describes what + the code that owns the reference is allowed to do to the buffer data. + Different references for the same buffer can have different permissions. + + For video filters that implement the deprecated + start_frame/draw_slice/end_frame API, the permissions only apply to the + parts of the buffer that have already been covered by the draw_slice + method. + + The value is a binary OR of the following constants: + + * AV_PERM_READ: the owner can read the buffer data; this is essentially + always true and is there for self-documentation. + + * AV_PERM_WRITE: the owner can modify the buffer data. + + * AV_PERM_PRESERVE: the owner can rely on the fact that the buffer data + will not be modified by previous filters. + + * AV_PERM_REUSE: the owner can output the buffer several times, without + modifying the data in between. + + * AV_PERM_REUSE2: the owner can output the buffer several times and + modify the data in between (useless without the WRITE permissions). + + * AV_PERM_ALIGN: the owner can access the data using fast operations + that require data alignment. + + The READ, WRITE and PRESERVE permissions are about sharing the same + buffer between several filters to avoid expensive copies without them + doing conflicting changes on the data. + + The REUSE and REUSE2 permissions are about special memory for direct + rendering. For example a buffer directly allocated in video memory must + not modified once it is displayed on screen, or it will cause tearing; + it will therefore not have the REUSE2 permission. + + The ALIGN permission is about extracting part of the buffer, for + copy-less padding or cropping for example. + + + References received on input pads are guaranteed to have all the + permissions stated in the min_perms field and none of the permissions + stated in the rej_perms. + + References obtained by ff_get_video_buffer and ff_get_audio_buffer are + guaranteed to have at least all the permissions requested as argument. + + References created by avfilter_ref_buffer have the same permissions as + the original reference minus the ones explicitly masked; the mask is + usually ~0 to keep the same permissions. + + Filters should remove permissions on reference they give to output + whenever necessary. It can be automatically done by setting the + rej_perms field on the output pad. + + Here are a few guidelines corresponding to common situations: + + * Filters that modify and forward their frame (like drawtext) need the + WRITE permission. + + * Filters that read their input to produce a new frame on output (like + scale) need the READ permission on input and must request a buffer + with the WRITE permission. + + * Filters that intend to keep a reference after the filtering process + is finished (after filter_frame returns) must have the PRESERVE + permission on it and remove the WRITE permission if they create a new + reference to give it away. + + * Filters that intend to modify a reference they have kept after the end + of the filtering process need the REUSE2 permission and must remove + the PRESERVE permission if they create a new reference to give it + away. + + +Frame scheduling +================ + + The purpose of these rules is to ensure that frames flow in the filter + graph without getting stuck and accumulating somewhere. + + Simple filters that output one frame for each input frame should not have + to worry about it. + + filter_frame + ------------ + + This method is called when a frame is pushed to the filter's input. It + can be called at any time except in a reentrant way. + + If the input frame is enough to produce output, then the filter should + push the output frames on the output link immediately. + + As an exception to the previous rule, if the input frame is enough to + produce several output frames, then the filter needs output only at + least one per link. The additional frames can be left buffered in the + filter; these buffered frames must be flushed immediately if a new input + produces new output. + + (Example: frame rate-doubling filter: filter_frame must (1) flush the + second copy of the previous frame, if it is still there, (2) push the + first copy of the incoming frame, (3) keep the second copy for later.) + + If the input frame is not enough to produce output, the filter must not + call request_frame to get more. It must just process the frame or queue + it. The task of requesting more frames is left to the filter's + request_frame method or the application. + + If a filter has several inputs, the filter must be ready for frames + arriving randomly on any input. Therefore, any filter with several inputs + will most likely require some kind of queuing mechanism. It is perfectly + acceptable to have a limited queue and to drop frames when the inputs + are too unbalanced. + + request_frame + ------------- + + This method is called when a frame is wanted on an output. + + For an input, it should directly call filter_frame on the corresponding + output. + + For a filter, if there are queued frames already ready, one of these + frames should be pushed. If not, the filter should request a frame on + one of its inputs, repeatedly until at least one frame has been pushed. + + Return values: + if request_frame could produce a frame, it should return 0; + if it could not for temporary reasons, it should return AVERROR(EAGAIN); + if it could not because there are no more frames, it should return + AVERROR_EOF. + + The typical implementation of request_frame for a filter with several + inputs will look like that: + + if (frames_queued) { + push_one_frame(); + return 0; + } + while (!frame_pushed) { + input = input_where_a_frame_is_most_needed(); + ret = ff_request_frame(input); + if (ret == AVERROR_EOF) { + process_eof_on_input(); + } else if (ret < 0) { + return ret; + } + } + return 0; + + Note that, except for filters that can have queued frames, request_frame + does not push frames: it requests them to its input, and as a reaction, + the filter_frame method will be called and do the work. + +Legacy API +========== + + Until libavfilter 3.23, the filter_frame method was split: + + - for video filters, it was made of start_frame, draw_slice (that could be + called several times on distinct parts of the frame) and end_frame; + + - for audio filters, it was called filter_samples. diff --git a/doc/filters.texi b/doc/filters.texi index e4fb57eb69..57679cca5c 100644 --- a/doc/filters.texi +++ b/doc/filters.texi @@ -1,3 +1,100 @@ +@chapter Filtering Introduction +@c man begin FILTERING INTRODUCTION + +Filtering in FFmpeg is enabled through the libavfilter library. + +In libavfilter, a filter can have multiple inputs and multiple +outputs. +To illustrate the sorts of things that are possible, we consider the +following filtergraph. + +@example + [main] +input --> split ---------------------> overlay --> output + | ^ + |[tmp] [flip]| + +-----> crop --> vflip -------+ +@end example + +This filtergraph splits the input stream in two streams, sends one +stream through the crop filter and the vflip filter before merging it +back with the other stream by overlaying it on top.

The time unit is 1 / sample rate. +This allows for padding/trimming at the start of stream. By default, no +assumption is made about the first frame's expected pts, so no padding or +trimming is done. For example, this could be set to 0 to pad the beginning with +silence if an audio stream starts after the video stream or to trim any samples +with a negative pts due to encoder delay. + +@item min_comp +For swr only, set the minimum difference between timestamps and audio data (in +seconds) to trigger stretching/squeezing/filling or trimming of the +data to make it match the timestamps.
