It is mostly used as a testbed for the various FFmpeg APIs. @c man end @chapter Options @c man begin OPTIONS @include avtools-common-opts.texi @section Main options @table @option @item -x @var{width} Force displayed width. @item -y @var{height} Force displayed height. @item -s @var{size} Set frame size (WxH or abbreviation), needed for videos which do not contain a header with the frame size like raw YUV. This option has been deprecated in favor of private options, try -video_size. @item -an Disable audio. @item -vn Disable video. @item -ss @var{pos} Seek to a given position in seconds. @item -t @var{duration} play <duration> seconds of audio/video @item -bytes Seek by bytes. @item -nodisp Disable graphical display. @item -f @var{fmt} Force format. @item -window_title @var{title} Set window title (default is the input filename). @item -loop @var{number} Loops movie playback <number> times. 0 means forever. @item -showmode @var{mode} Set the show mode to use. Available values for @var{mode} are: @table @samp @item 0, video show video @item 1, waves show audio waves @item 2, rdft show audio frequency band using RDFT ((Inverse) Real Discrete Fourier Transform) @end table Default value is "video", if video is not present or cannot be played "rdft" is automatically selected. You can interactively cycle through the available show modes by pressing the key @key{w}. @item -vf @var{filter_graph} @var{filter_graph} is a description of the filter graph to apply to the input video. Use the option "-filters" to show all the available filters (including also sources and sinks). @item -i @var{input_file} Read @var{input_file}. @end table @section Advanced options @table @option @item -pix_fmt @var{format} Set pixel format. This option has been deprecated in favor of private options, try -pixel_format. @item -stats Show the stream duration, the codec parameters, the current position in the stream and the audio/video synchronisation drift. @item -bug Work around bugs. @item -fast Non-spec-compliant optimizations. @item -genpts Generate pts. @item -rtp_tcp Force RTP/TCP protocol usage instead of RTP/UDP. It is only meaningful if you are streaming with the RTSP protocol. @item -sync @var{type} Set the master clock to audio (@code{type=audio}), video (@code{type=video}) or external (@code{type=ext}). Default is audio. The master clock is used to control audio-video synchronization. Most media players use audio as master clock, but in some cases (streaming or high quality broadcast) it is necessary to change that. This option is mainly used for debugging purposes. @item -threads @var{count} Set the thread count. @item -ast @var{audio_stream_number} Select the desired audio stream number, counting from 0. The number refers to the list of all the input audio streams. If it is greater than the number of audio streams minus one, then the last one is selected, if it is negative the audio playback is disabled. @item -vst @var{video_stream_number} Select the desired video stream number, counting from 0. The number refers to the list of all the input video streams. If it is greater than the number of video streams minus one, then the last one is selected, if it is negative the video playback is disabled. @item -sst @var{subtitle_stream_number} Select the desired subtitle stream number, counting from 0. The number refers to the list of all the input subtitle streams. If it is greater than the number of subtitle streams minus one, then the last one is selected, if it is negative the subtitle rendering is disabled. @item -autoexit Exit when video is done playing. @item -exitonkeydown Exit if any key is pressed. @item -exitonmousedown Exit if any mouse button is pressed. @item -codec:@var{stream_type} Force a specific decoder implementation @end table @section While playing @table @key @item q, ESC Quit. @item f Toggle full screen. @item p, SPC Pause. @item a Cycle audio channel. @item v Cycle video channel. @item t Cycle subtitle channel. @item w Show audio waves. @item left/right Seek backward/forward 10 seconds. @item down/up Seek backward/forward 1 minute. @item page down/page up Seek backward/forward 10 minutes. @item mouse click Seek to percentage in file corresponding to fraction of width. @end table @c man end @include syntax.texi @include eval.texi @include decoders.texi @include demuxers.texi @include muxers.texi @include indevs.texi @include outdevs.texi @include protocols.texi @include filters.texi @ignore @setfilename ffplay @settitle FFplay media player @c man begin SEEALSO ffmpeg(1), ffprobe(1), ffserver(1) and the FFmpeg HTML documentation @c man end @c man begin AUTHORS The FFmpeg developers @c man end @end ignore @bye
