1 @chapter Resampler Options
2 @c man begin RESAMPLER OPTIONS
4 The audio resampler supports the following named options.
6 Options may be set by specifying -@var{option} @var{value} in the
7 FFmpeg tools, @var{option}=@var{value} for the aresample filter,
8 by setting the value explicitly in the
9 @code{SwrContext} options or using the @file{libavutil/opt.h} API for
14 @item ich, in_channel_count
15 Set the number of input channels. Default value is 0. Setting this
16 value is not mandatory if the corresponding channel layout
17 @option{in_channel_layout} is set.
19 @item och, out_channel_count
20 Set the number of output channels. Default value is 0. Setting this
21 value is not mandatory if the corresponding channel layout
22 @option{out_channel_layout} is set.
24 @item uch, used_channel_count
25 Set the number of used input channels. Default value is 0. This option is
26 only used for special remapping.
28 @item isr, in_sample_rate
29 Set the input sample rate. Default value is 0.
31 @item osr, out_sample_rate
32 Set the output sample rate. Default value is 0.
34 @item isf, in_sample_fmt
35 Specify the input sample format. It is set by default to @code{none}.
37 @item osf, out_sample_fmt
38 Specify the output sample format. It is set by default to @code{none}.
40 @item tsf, internal_sample_fmt
41 Set the internal sample format. Default value is @code{none}.
42 This will automatically be chosen when it is not explicitly set.
44 @item icl, in_channel_layout
45 @item ocl, out_channel_layout
46 Set the input/output channel layout.
48 See @ref{channel layout syntax,,the Channel Layout section in the ffmpeg-utils(1) manual,ffmpeg-utils}
49 for the required syntax.
51 @item clev, center_mix_level
52 Set the center mix level. It is a value expressed in deciBel, and must be
53 in the interval [-32,32].
55 @item slev, surround_mix_level
56 Set the surround mix level. It is a value expressed in deciBel, and must
57 be in the interval [-32,32].
60 Set LFE mix into non LFE level. It is used when there is a LFE input but no
61 LFE output. It is a value expressed in deciBel, and must
62 be in the interval [-32,32].
64 @item rmvol, rematrix_volume
65 Set rematrix volume. Default value is 1.0.
68 Set maximum output value for rematrixing.
69 This can be used to prevent clipping vs. preventing volume reduction.
70 A value of 1.0 prevents clipping.
72 @item flags, swr_flags
73 Set flags used by the converter. Default value is 0.
75 It supports the following individual flags:
78 force resampling, this flag forces resampling to be used even when the
79 input and output sample rates match.
83 Set the dither scale. Default value is 1.
86 Set dither method. Default value is 0.
91 select rectangular dither
93 select triangular dither
95 select triangular dither with high pass
97 select Lipshitz noise shaping dither.
99 select Shibata noise shaping dither.
101 select low Shibata noise shaping dither.
103 select high Shibata noise shaping dither.
105 select f-weighted noise shaping dither
106 @item modified_e_weighted
107 select modified-e-weighted noise shaping dither
108 @item improved_e_weighted
109 select improved-e-weighted noise shaping dither
114 Set resampling engine. Default value is swr.
119 select the native SW Resampler; filter options precision and cheby are not
120 applicable in this case.
122 select the SoX Resampler (where available); compensation, and filter options
123 filter_size, phase_shift, exact_rational, filter_type & kaiser_beta, are not
124 applicable in this case.
128 For swr only, set resampling filter size, default value is 32.
131 For swr only, set resampling phase shift, default value is 10, and must be in
135 Use linear interpolation when enabled (the default). Disable it if you want
136 to preserve speed instead of quality when exact_rational fails.
139 For swr only, when enabled, try to use exact phase_count based on input and
140 output sample rate. However, if it is larger than @code{1 << phase_shift},
141 the phase_count will be @code{1 << phase_shift} as fallback. Default is enabled.
144 Set cutoff frequency (swr: 6dB point; soxr: 0dB point) ratio; must be a float
145 value between 0 and 1. Default value is 0.97 with swr, and 0.91 with soxr
146 (which, with a sample-rate of 44100, preserves the entire audio band to 20kHz).
149 For soxr only, the precision in bits to which the resampled signal will be
150 calculated. The default value of 20 (which, with suitable dithering, is
151 appropriate for a destination bit-depth of 16) gives SoX's 'High Quality'; a
152 value of 28 gives SoX's 'Very High Quality'.
155 For soxr only, selects passband rolloff none (Chebyshev) & higher-precision
156 approximation for 'irrational' ratios. Default value is 0.
159 For swr only, simple 1 parameter audio sync to timestamps using stretching,
160 squeezing, filling and trimming. Setting this to 1 will enable filling and
161 trimming, larger values represent the maximum amount in samples that the data
162 may be stretched or squeezed for each second.
163 Default value is 0, thus no compensation is applied to make the samples match
164 the audio timestamps.
167 For swr only, assume the first pts should be this value. The time unit is 1 / sample rate.
168 This allows for padding/trimming at the start of stream. By default, no
169 assumption is made about the first frame's expected pts, so no padding or
170 trimming is done. For example, this could be set to 0 to pad the beginning with
171 silence if an audio stream starts after the video stream or to trim any samples
172 with a negative pts due to encoder delay.
175 For swr only, set the minimum difference between timestamps and audio data (in
176 seconds) to trigger stretching/squeezing/filling or trimming of the
177 data to make it match the timestamps. The default is that
178 stretching/squeezing/filling and trimming is disabled
179 (@option{min_comp} = @code{FLT_MAX}).
182 For swr only, set the minimum difference between timestamps and audio data (in
183 seconds) to trigger adding/dropping samples to make it match the
184 timestamps. This option effectively is a threshold to select between
185 hard (trim/fill) and soft (squeeze/stretch) compensation. Note that
186 all compensation is by default disabled through @option{min_comp}.
190 For swr only, set duration (in seconds) over which data is stretched/squeezed
191 to make it match the timestamps. Must be a non-negative double float value,
192 default value is 1.0.
195 For swr only, set maximum factor by which data is stretched/squeezed to make it
196 match the timestamps. Must be a non-negative double float value, default value
199 @item matrix_encoding
200 Select matrixed stereo encoding.
202 It accepts the following values:
209 select Dolby Pro Logic II
212 Default value is @code{none}.
215 For swr only, select resampling filter type. This only affects resampling
218 It accepts the following values:
222 @item blackman_nuttall
223 select Blackman Nuttall windowed sinc
225 select Kaiser windowed sinc
229 For swr only, set Kaiser window beta value. Must be a double float value in the
230 interval [2,16], default value is 9.
232 @item output_sample_bits
233 For swr only, set number of used output sample bits for dithering. Must be an integer in the
234 interval [0,64], default value is 0, which means it's not used.
