Along those lines though, one pattern that's becoming more popular particularly recently integrated encoder libraries is to move options into an opaque key-value string that's passed to the encoder library. For example svtav1-params. This makes sense because the parameters are frequently changing with new versions and it's hard to keep that in sync. However it gives up the self-documentation when running ffmpeg -h encoder=libsvtav1 for example. It would be nice if there were some facilities for encoders to expose their parameters to ffmpeg including min/max or value list, the default value and a description such that running -h can show a useful help message. This would also allow ffmpeg to validate the parameters and possibly expose the options as proper -flags rather than requiring jamming them through a string blob. - Cosmin _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-devel-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
