When evaluating specific formats, FFmpeg uses internal library parsing
|
|
|
|
functions, shared by the tools. This section documents the syntax of
|
|
|
|
some of these formats.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
@anchor{date syntax}
|
|
|
|
@section Date
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The accepted syntax is:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
|
|
[(YYYY-MM-DD|YYYYMMDD)[T|t| ]]((HH:MM:SS[.m...]]])|(HHMMSS[.m...]]]))[Z]
|
|
|
|
now
|
|
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If the value is "now" it takes the current time.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Time is local time unless Z is appended, in which case it is
|
|
|
|
interpreted as UTC.
|
|
|
|
If the year-month-day part is not specified it takes the current
|
|
|
|
year-month-day.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
@anchor{time duration syntax}
|
|
|
|
@section Time duration
|
|
|
|
|

@example
|
|
|
|
[-]HH:MM:SS[.m...]
|
|
|
|
[-]S+[.m...]
|
|
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
@var{HH} expresses the number of hours, @var{MM} the number a of minutes
|
|

@section Video rate
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Specify the frame rate of a video, expressed as the number of frames

|
|
|
|
@var{frame_rate_num}/@var{frame_rate_den}, an integer number, a float
|
|
|
|
number or a valid video frame rate abbreviation.

@anchor{ratio syntax}
|
|
|
|
@section Ratio
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
A ratio can be expressed as an expression, or in the form
|
|
|
|
@var{numerator}:@var{denominator}.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Note that a ratio with infinite (1/0) or negative value is
|
|
|
|
considered valid, so you should check on the returned value if you
|
|
|
|
want to exclude those values.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The undefined value can be expressed using the "0:0" string.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
@anchor{color syntax}
|
|
|
|
@section Color
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
It can be the name of a color (case insensitive match) or a
|
2012-05-29 05:40:12 +00:00
|
|
|
[0x|#]RRGGBB[AA] sequence, possibly followed by "@@" and a string
|
2012-05-03 13:14:14 +00:00
|
|
|
representing the alpha component.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The alpha component may be a string composed by "0x" followed by an
|
|
|
|
hexadecimal number or a decimal number between 0.0 and 1.0, which
|
|
|
|
represents the opacity value (0x00/0.0 means completely transparent,
|
|
|
|
0xff/1.0 completely opaque).
|
|
|
|
If the alpha component is not specified then 0xff is assumed.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The string "random" will result in a random color.
