Function Documentation

int av_get_output_timestamp ( struct AVFormatContext s,
int  stream,
int64_t *  dts,
int64_t *  wall 
)

Get timing information for the data currently output.

The exact meaning of "currently output" depends on the format. It is mostly relevant for devices that have an internal buffer and/or work in real time.

Parameters:
s media file handle
stream stream in the media file
dts[out] DTS of the last packet output for the stream, in stream time_base units
wall[out] absolute time when that packet whas output, in microsecond
Returns:
0 if OK, AVERROR(ENOSYS) if the format does not support it Note: some formats or devices may not allow to measure dts and wall atomically.

enum AVCodecID av_guess_codec ( AVOutputFormat fmt,
const char *  short_name,
const char *  filename,
const char *  mime_type,
enum AVMediaType  type 
)

Guess the codec ID based upon muxer and filename.

AVOutputFormat* av_guess_format ( const char *  short_name,
const char *  filename,
const char *  mime_type 
)

Return the output format in the list of registered output formats which best matches the provided parameters, or return NULL if there is no match.

Parameters:
short_name if non-NULL checks if short_name matches with the names of the registered formats
filename if non-NULL checks if filename terminates with the extensions of the registered formats
mime_type if non-NULL checks if mime_type matches with the MIME type of the registered formats

attribute_deprecated int av_interleave_packet_per_dts ( AVFormatContext s,
AVPacket out,
AVPacket pkt,
int  flush 
)

Deprecated:
this function was never meant to be called by the user programs.

int av_interleaved_write_frame ( AVFormatContext s,
AVPacket pkt 
)

Write a packet to an output media file ensuring correct interleaving.

The packet must contain one audio or video frame. If the packets are already correctly interleaved, the application should call av_write_frame() instead as it is slightly faster. It is also important to keep in mind that completely non-interleaved input will need huge amounts of memory to interleave with this, so it is preferable to interleave at the demuxer level.

Parameters:
s media file handle
pkt The packet containing the data to be written. Libavformat takes ownership of the data and will free it when it sees fit using the packet's This can be NULL (at any time, not just at the end), to flush the interleaving queues. destruct field. The caller must not access the data after this function returns, as it may already be freed. Packet's stream_index field must be set to the index of the corresponding stream in s.streams. It is very strongly recommended that timing information (pts, dts duration) is set to correct values.
Returns:
0 on success, a negative AVERROR on error.

int av_write_frame ( AVFormatContext s,
AVPacket pkt 
)

Write a packet to an output media file.

The packet shall contain one audio or video frame. The packet must be correctly interleaved according to the container specification, if not then av_interleaved_write_frame must be used.

Parameters:
s media file handle
pkt The packet, which contains the stream_index, buf/buf_size, dts/pts, ... This can be NULL (at any time, not just at the end), in order to immediately flush data buffered within the muxer, for muxers that buffer up data internally before writing it to the output.
Returns:
< 0 on error, = 0 if OK, 1 if flushed and there is no more data to flush

int av_write_trailer ( AVFormatContext s  ) 

Write the stream trailer to an output media file and free the file private data.

May only be called after a successful call to av_write_header.

Parameters:
s media file handle
Returns:
0 if OK, AVERROR_xxx on error

int avformat_write_header ( AVFormatContext s,
AVDictionary **  options 
)

Allocate the stream private data and write the stream header to an output media file.

Parameters:
s Media file handle, must be allocated with avformat_alloc_context(). Its oformat field must be set to the desired output format; Its pb field must be set to an already openened AVIOContext.
options An AVDictionary filled with AVFormatContext and muxer-private options. On return this parameter will be destroyed and replaced with a dict containing options that were not found. May be NULL.
Returns:
0 on success, negative AVERROR on failure.
