Anton Khirnov 78f46065d8 fftools/ffmpeg: add special syntax for loading filter options from files
Many filters accept user-provided data that is cumbersome to provide as
text strings - e.g. binary files or very long text. For that reason such
filters typically provide a option whose value is the path from which
the filter loads the actual data.

However, filters doing their own IO internally is a layering violation
that the callers may not expect, and is thus best avoided. With the
recently introduced graph segment parsing API, loading option values
from files can now be handled by the caller.

This commit makes use of the new API in ffmpeg CLI. Any option name in
the filtergraph syntax can now be prefixed with a slash '/'. This will
cause ffmpeg to interpret the value as the path to load the actual value
from.

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 and qt-faststart.
