32 * I/O and Muxing/Demuxing Library
33 *
34 * Libavformat (lavf) is a library for dealing with various media container
35 * formats. Its main two purposes are demuxing - i.e. splitting a media file
36 * into component streams, and the reverse process of muxing - writing supplied
37 * data in a specified container format. It also has an @ref lavf_io
38 * "I/O module" which supports a number of protocols for accessing the data (e.g.
39 * file, tcp, http and others).
40 * Unless you are absolutely sure you won't use libavformat's network
41 * capabilities, you should also call avformat_network_init().
42 *
43 * A supported input format is described by an AVInputFormat struct, conversely
44 * an output format is described by AVOutputFormat. You can iterate over all
45 * input/output formats using the av_demuxer_iterate / av_muxer_iterate() functions.
46 * The protocols layer is not part of the public API, so you can only get the names
47 * of supported protocols with the avio_enum_protocols() function.
48 *
49 * Main lavf structure used for both muxing and demuxing is AVFormatContext,
50 * which exports all information about the file being read or written. As with
51 * most Libavformat structures, its size is not part of public ABI, so it cannot be
52 * allocated on stack or directly with av_malloc(). To create an
53 * AVFormatContext, use avformat_alloc_context() (some functions, like
54 * avformat_open_input() might do that for you).
55 *
56 * Most importantly an AVFormatContext contains:
57 * @li the @ref AVFormatContext.iformat "input" or @ref AVFormatContext.oformat
58 * "output" format. It is either autodetected or set by user for input;
59 * always set by user for output.
60 * @li an @ref AVFormatContext.streams "array" of AVStreams, which describe all
61 * elementary streams stored in the file. AVStreams are typically referred to
62 * using their index in this array.
63 * @li an @ref AVFormatContext.pb "I/O context". It is either opened by lavf or
64 * set by user for input, always set by user for output (unless you are dealing
65 * with an AVFMT_NOFILE format).
66 *
67 * @section lavf_options Passing options to (de)muxers
68 * It is possible to configure lavf muxers and demuxers using the @ref avoptions
69 * mechanism. Generic (format-independent) libavformat options are provided by
70 * AVFormatContext, they can be examined from a user program by calling
71 * av_opt_next() / av_opt_find() on an allocated AVFormatContext (or its AVClass
72 * from avformat_get_class()). Private (format-specific) options are provided by
73 * AVFormatContext.priv_data if and only if AVInputFormat.priv_class /
74 * AVOutputFormat.priv_class of the corresponding format struct is non-NULL.
75 * Further options may be provided by the @ref AVFormatContext.pb "I/O context",
76 * if its AVClass is non-NULL, and the protocols layer. See the discussion on
77 * nesting in @ref avoptions documentation to learn how to access those.
78 *
79 * @section urls
80 * URL strings in libavformat are made of a scheme/protocol, a ':', and a
81 * scheme specific string. URLs without a scheme and ':' used for local files
82 * are supported but deprecated. "file:" should be used for local files.
83 *
84 * It is important that the scheme string is not taken from untrusted
85 * sources without checks.
86 *
87 * Note that some schemes/protocols are quite powerful, allowing access to
88 * both local and remote files, parts of them, concatenations of them, local
89 * audio and video devices and so on.

91 * @{
92 *
93 * @defgroup lavf_decoding Demuxing
94 * @{
95 * Demuxers read a media file and split it into chunks of data (@em packets). A
96 * @ref AVPacket "packet" contains one or more encoded frames which belongs to a
97 * single elementary stream. In the lavf API this process is represented by the
98 * avformat_open_input() function for opening a file, av_read_frame() for
99 * reading a single packet and finally avformat_close_input(), which does the
100 * cleanup.
101 *
102 * @section lavf_decoding_open Opening a media file
103 * The minimum information required to open a file is its URL, which
104 * is passed to avformat_open_input(), as in the following code:
105 * @code
106 * const char *url = "file:in.mp3";
107 * AVFormatContext *s = NULL;
108 * int ret = avformat_open_input(&s, url, NULL, NULL);
109 * if (ret < 0)
110 * abort();
111 * @endcode
112 * The above code attempts to allocate an AVFormatContext, open the
113 * specified file (autodetecting the format) and read the header, exporting the
114 * information stored there into s. Some formats do not have a header or do not
115 * store enough information there, so it is recommended that you call the
116 * avformat_find_stream_info() function which tries to read and decode a few
117 * frames to find missing information.
118 *
119 * In some cases you might want to preallocate an AVFormatContext yourself with
120 * avformat_alloc_context() and do some tweaking on it before passing it to
121 * avformat_open_input(). One such case is when you want to use custom functions
122 * for reading input data instead of lavf internal I/O layer.
123 * To do that, create your own AVIOContext with avio_alloc_context(), passing
124 * your reading callbacks to it. Then set the @em pb field of your
125 * AVFormatContext to newly created AVIOContext.
126 *
127 * Since the format of the opened file is in general not known until after
128 * avformat_open_input() has returned, it is not possible to set demuxer private
129 * options on a preallocated context. Instead, the options should be passed to
130 * avformat_open_input() wrapped in an AVDictionary:
131 * @code
132 * AVDictionary *options = NULL;
133 * av_dict_set(&options, "video_size", "640x480", 0);
134 * av_dict_set(&options, "pixel_format", "rgb24", 0);
135 *
136 * if (avformat_open_input(&s, url, NULL, &options) < 0)
137 * abort();
138 * av_dict_free(&options);
139 * @endcode
140 * This code passes the private options 'video_size' and 'pixel_format' to the
141 * demuxer. They would be necessary for e.g. the rawvideo demuxer, since it
142 * cannot know how to interpret raw video data otherwise. If the format turns
143 * out to be something different than raw video, those options will not be
144 * recognized by the demuxer and therefore will not be applied. Such unrecognized
145 * options are then returned in the options dictionary (recognized options are
146 * consumed). The calling program can handle such unrecognized options as it
147 * wishes, e.g.
148 * @code
149 * const AVDictionaryEntry *e;
150 * if ((e = av_dict_iterate(options, NULL))) {
151 * fprintf(stderr, "Option %s not recognized by the demuxer.\n", e->key);
152 * abort();
153 * }
154 * @endcode
155 *
156 * After you have finished reading the file, you must close it with
157 * avformat_close_input(). It will free everything associated with the file.
158 *
159 * @section lavf_decoding_read Reading from an opened file
160 * Reading data from an opened AVFormatContext is done by repeatedly calling
161 * av_read_frame() on it. Each call, if successful, will return an AVPacket
162 * containing encoded data for one AVStream, identified by
163 * AVPacket.stream_index. This packet may be passed straight into the libavcodec
164 * decoding functions avcodec_send_packet() or avcodec_decode_subtitle2() if the
165 * caller wishes to decode the data.
166 *
167 * AVPacket.pts, AVPacket.dts and AVPacket.duration timing information will be
168 * set if known. They may also be unset (i.e. AV_NOPTS_VALUE for
169 * pts/dts, 0 for duration) if the stream does not provide them. The timing
170 * information will be in AVStream.time_base units, i.e. it has to be
171 * multiplied by the timebase to convert them to seconds.
172 *
173 * A packet returned by av_read_frame() is always reference-counted,
174 * i.e. AVPacket.buf is set and the user may keep it indefinitely.
175 * The packet must be freed with av_packet_unref() when it is no
176 * longer needed.
177 *
178 * @section lavf_decoding_seek Seeking
179 * @}
180 *
181 * @defgroup lavf_encoding Muxing
182 * @{
183 * Muxers take encoded data in the form of @ref AVPacket "AVPackets" and write
184 * it into files or other output bytestreams in the specified container format.
185 *
186 * The main API functions for muxing are avformat_write_header() for writing the
187 * file header, av_write_frame() / av_interleaved_write_frame() for writing the
188 * packets and av_write_trailer() for finalizing the file.
189 *
190 * At the beginning of the muxing process, the caller must first call
191 * avformat_alloc_context() to create a muxing context. The caller then sets up
192 * the muxer by filling the various fields in this context:
193 *
194 * - The @ref AVFormatContext.oformat "oformat" field must be set to select the
195 * muxer that will be used.
196 * - Unless the format is of the AVFMT_NOFILE type, the @ref AVFormatContext.pb
197 * "pb" field must be set to an opened IO context, either returned from
198 * avio_open2() or a custom one.
199 * - Unless the format is of the AVFMT_NOSTREAMS type, at least one stream must
200 * be created with the avformat_new_stream() function. The caller should fill
201 * the @ref AVStream.codecpar "stream codec parameters" information, such as the
202 * codec @ref AVCodecParameters.codec_type "type", @ref AVCodecParameters.codec_id
203 * "id" and other parameters (e.g. width / height, the pixel or sample format,
204 * etc.) as known. The @ref AVStream.time_base "stream timebase" should
205 * be set to the timebase that the caller desires to use for this stream (note
206 * that the timebase actually used by the muxer can be different, as will be
207 * described later).
208 * - It is advised to manually initialize only the relevant fields in
209 * AVCodecParameters, rather than using @ref avcodec_parameters_copy() during
210 * remuxing: there is no guarantee that the codec context values remain valid
211 * for both input and output format contexts.
212 * - The caller may fill in additional information, such as @ref
213 * AVFormatContext.metadata "global" or @ref AVStream.metadata "per-stream"
214 * metadata, @ref AVFormatContext.chapters "chapters", @ref
215 * AVFormatContext.programs "programs", etc. as described in the
216 * AVFormatContext documentation. Whether such information will actually be
217 * stored in the output depends on what the container format and the muxer
218 * support.
219 *
220 * When the muxing context is fully set up, the caller must call
221 * avformat_write_header() to initialize the muxer internals and write the file
222 * header. Whether anything actually is written to the IO context at this step
223 * depends on the muxer, but this function must always be called. Any muxer
224 * private options must be passed in the options parameter to this function.
225 *
226 * The data is then sent to the muxer by repeatedly calling av_write_frame() or
227 * av_interleaved_write_frame() (consult those functions' documentation for
228 * discussion on the difference between them; only one of them may be used with
229 * a single muxing context, they should not be mixed). Do note that the timing
230 * information on the packets sent to the muxer must be in the corresponding
231 * AVStream's timebase. That timebase is set by the muxer (in the
232 * avformat_write_header() step) and may be different from the timebase
233 * requested by the caller.
234 *
235 * Once all the data has been written, the caller must call av_write_trailer()
236 * to flush any buffered packets and finalize the output file, then close the IO
237 * context (if any) and finally free the muxing context with
238 * avformat_free_context().

251 * @subsection lavf_io_dirlist_open Opening a directory
252 * At first, a directory needs to be opened by calling avio_open_dir()

264 *
265 * This code tries to open a sample directory using smb protocol without

268 * @subsection lavf_io_dirlist_read Reading entries
269 * Each directory's entry (i.e. file, another directory, anything else
270 * within ::AVIODirEntryType) is represented by AVIODirEntry.
271 * Reading consecutive entries from an opened AVIODirContext is done by
272 * repeatedly calling avio_read_dir() on it. Each call returns zero or
273 * positive integer if successful. Reading can be stopped right after the
274 * NULL entry has been read -- it means there are no entries left to be
275 * read. The following code reads all entries from a directory associated
276 * with ctx and prints their names to standard output.

335 * @defgroup metadata_api Public Metadata API
336 * @{
337 * @ingroup libavf
338 * The metadata API allows libavformat to export metadata tags to a client
339 * application when demuxing. Conversely it allows a client application to
340 * set metadata when muxing.
341 *
342 * Metadata is exported or set as pairs of key/value strings in the 'metadata'
343 * fields of the AVFormatContext, AVStream, AVChapter and AVProgram structs
344 * using the @ref lavu_dict "AVDictionary" API. Like all strings in FFmpeg,
345 * metadata is assumed to be UTF-8 encoded Unicode. Note that metadata
346 * exported by demuxers isn't checked to be valid UTF-8 in most cases.
347 *
348 * Important concepts to keep in mind:
349 * - Keys are unique; there can never be 2 tags with the same key. This is
350 * also meant semantically, i.e., a demuxer should not knowingly produce
351 * several keys that are literally different but semantically identical.
352 * E.g., key=Author5, key=Author6. In this example, all authors must be
353 * placed in the same tag.
354 * - Metadata is flat, not hierarchical; there are no subtags. If you
355 * want to store, e.g., the email address of the child of producer Alice
356 * and actor Bob, that could have key=alice_and_bobs_childs_email_address.
357 * - Several modifiers can be applied to the tag name. This is done by
358 * appending a dash character ('-') and the modifier name in the order
359 * they appear in the list below -- e.g. foo-eng-sort, not foo-sort-eng.
360 * - language -- a tag whose value is localized for a particular language
361 * is appended with the ISO 639-2/B 3-letter language code.
362 * For example: Author-ger=Michael, Author-eng=Mike
363 * The original/default language is in the unqualified "Author" tag.
364 * A demuxer should set a default if it sets any translated tag.
365 * - sorting -- a modified version of a tag that should be used for
366 * sorting will have '-sort' appended. E.g. artist="The Beatles",
367 * artist-sort="Beatles, The".
368 * - Some protocols and demuxers support metadata updates. After a successful
369 * call to av_read_frame(), AVFormatContext.event_flags or AVStream.event_flags
370 * will be updated to indicate if metadata changed. In order to detect metadata
371 * changes on a stream, you need to loop through all streams in the AVFormatContext
372 * and check their individual event_flags.
373 *
374 * - Demuxers attempt to export metadata in a generic format, however tags
375 * with no generic equivalents are left as they are stored in the container.
376 * Follows a list of generic tag names:
377 *
