Merge remote-tracking branch 'qatar/master'
* qatar/master: (58 commits)
amrnbdec: check frame size before decoding.
cscd: use negative error values to indicate decode_init() failures.
h264: prevent overreads in intra PCM decoding.
FATE: do not decode audio in the nuv test.
dxa: set audio stream time base using the sample rate
psx-str: do not allow seeking by bytes

mpegaudiodec: use DSPUtil.butterflies_float().
FATE: add mp3 test for sample that exhibited false overreads
fate: add cdxl test for bit line plane arrangement
vmnc: return error on decode_init() failure.
libvorbis: add/update error messages
libvorbis: use AVFifoBuffer for output packet buffer
libvorbis: remove unneeded e_o_s check
libvorbis: check return values for functions that can return errors
libvorbis: use float input instead of s16

ID3v2.3 and ID3v2.4 are supported, the +@code{id3v2_version} option controls which one is used. The legacy ID3v1 tag is +not written by default, but may be enabled with the @code{write_id3v1} option. + +For seekable output the muxer also writes a Xing frame at the beginning, which +contains the number of frames in the file. It is useful for computing duration +of VBR files. + +The muxer supports writing ID3v2 attached pictures (APIC frames). The pictures +are supplied to the muxer in form of a video stream with a single packet. There +can be any number of those streams, each will correspond to a single APIC frame. +The stream metadata tags @var{title} and @var{comment} map to APIC +@var{description} and @var{picture type} respectively. See +@url{http://id3.org/id3v2.4.0-frames} for allowed picture types. + +Note that the APIC frames must be written at the beginning, so the muxer will +buffer the audio frames until it gets all the pictures. It is therefore advised +to provide the pictures as soon as possible to avoid excessive buffering. + +Examples: + +Write an mp3 with an ID3v2.3 header and an ID3v1 footer: +@example +ffmpeg -i INPUT -id3v2_version 3 -write_id3v1 1 out.mp3 +@end example + +Attach a picture to an mp3: +@example +ffmpeg -i input.mp3 -i cover.png -c copy -metadata:s:v title="Album cover" +-metadata:s:v comment="Cover (Front)" out.mp3 +@end example @c man end MUXERS |
