The text between the +braces is a function name, possibly followed by arguments separated by ':'. +If the arguments contain special characters or delimiters (':' or '@}'), +they should be escaped. + +Note that they probably must also be escaped as the value for the @option{text} +option in the filter argument string and as the filter argument in the +filtergraph description, and possibly also for the shell, that makes up to four +levels of escaping; using a text file with the @option{textfile} option avoids +these problems. + +The following functions are available: + +@table @command +@item n, frame_num +return the frame number + +@item pts +Return the presentation timestamp of the current frame. + +It can take up to two arguments. + +The first argument is the format of the timestamp; it defaults to @code{flt} for +seconds as a decimal number with microsecond accuracy; @code{hms} stands for a +formatted @var{[-]HH:MM:SS.mmm} timestamp with millisecond accuracy. +@code{gmtime} stands for the timestamp of the frame formatted as UTC time; +@code{localtime} stands for the timestamp of the frame formatted as local time +zone time. If the format is set to @code{hms24hh}, the time is formatted in 24h +format (00-23). + +The second argument is an offset added to the timestamp. + +If the format is set to @code{localtime} or @code{gmtime}, a third argument may +be supplied: a @code{strftime} C function format string. By default, +@var{YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS} format will be used. + +@item expr, e +Evaluate the expression's value and output as a double. + +It must take one argument specifying the expression to be evaluated, accepting +the constants and functions defined in @ref{qrencode_expressions}. + +@item expr_formatted, ef +Evaluate the expression's value and output as a formatted string. + +The first argument is the expression to be evaluated, just as for the @var{expr} function. +The second argument specifies the output format. Allowed values are @samp{x}, +@samp{X}, @samp{d} and @samp{u}. They are treated exactly as in the +@code{printf} function. +The third parameter is optional and sets the number of positions taken by the output. +It can be used to add padding with zeros from the left. + +@item gmtime +The time at which the filter is running, expressed in UTC. +It can accept an argument: a @code{strftime} C function format string. +The format string is extended to support the variable @var{%[1-6]N} +which prints fractions of the second with optionally specified number of digits. + +@item localtime +The time at which the filter is running, expressed in the local time zone. +It can accept an argument: a @code{strftime} C function format string. +The format string is extended to support the variable @var{%[1-6]N} +which prints fractions of the second with optionally specified number of digits. + +@item metadata +Frame metadata.
