A simple filtergraph for video can look for example like this:
@example
- _______ _____________ _______ _____ ________
-| | | | | | | | | |
-| input | ---> | deinterlace | ---> | scale | ---> | fps | ---> | output |

option can actually be used to extract extradata from any stream, not just
attachments.
+@item -noautorotate
+Disable automatically rotating video based on file metadata.

@end table
@section Video Options
@item auto
Automatically select the hardware acceleration method.
+@item vda
+Use Apple VDA hardware acceleration.
+
@item vdpau
Use VDPAU (Video Decode and Presentation API for Unix) hardware acceleration.
+
+@item dxva2
+Use DXVA2 (DirectX Video Acceleration) hardware acceleration.
@end table
This option has no effect if the selected hwaccel is not available or not
@item vdpau
For VDPAU, this option specifies the X11 display/screen to use. If this option
is not specified, the value of the @var{DISPLAY} environment variable is used
+
+@item dxva2
+For DXVA2, this option should contain the number of the display adapter to use.
+If this option is not specified, the default adapter is used.

avconv -i INPUT -map 0 -map -0:a:1 OUTPUT
@end example
+To pick the English audio stream:
+@example
+avconv -i INPUT -map 0:m:language:eng OUTPUT
+@end example

Note that using this option disables the default mappings for this output file.
@item -map_metadata[:@var{metadata_spec_out}] @var{infile}[:@var{metadata_spec_in}] (@emph{output,per-metadata})
avconv -i file.mov -an -vn -bsf:s mov2textsub -c:s copy -f rawvideo sub.txt
@end example
-@item -tag[:@var{stream_specifier}] @var{codec_tag} (@emph{output,per-stream})
+@item -tag[:@var{stream_specifier}] @var{codec_tag} (@emph{input/output,per-stream})
Force a tag/fourcc for matching streams.
@item -filter_complex @var{filtergraph} (@emph{global})
You can put many streams of the same type in the output:
@example
-avconv -i test1.avi -i test2.avi -map 0.3 -map 0.2 -map 0.1 -map 0.0 -c copy test12.nut
+avconv -i test1.avi -i test2.avi -map 1:1 -map 1:0 -map 0:1 -map 0:0 -c copy -y test12.nut
@end example
-The resulting output file @file{test12.avi} will contain first four streams from
-the input file in reverse order.
+The resulting output file @file{test12.nut} will contain the first four streams
+from the input files in reverse order.
