A filter with no input pads is called a "source", a filter with no
output pads is called a "sink".

+A filtergraph can be represented using a textual representation, which is
+recognized by the @option{-filter}/@option{-vf} and @option{-filter_complex}
+options in @command{ffmpeg} and @option{-vf} in @command{ffplay}, and by the
+@code{avfilter_graph_parse()}/@code{avfilter_graph_parse2()} function defined in
@file{libavfilter/avfiltergraph.h}.
A filterchain consists of a sequence of connected filters, each one
pads must be connected. A filtergraph is considered valid if all the
filter input and output pads of all the filterchains are connected.
+Libavfilter will automatically insert scale filters where format
+conversion is required. It is possible to specify swscale flags
+for those automatically inserted scalers by prepending
+@code{sws_flags=@var{flags};}
+to the filtergraph description.
+
Follows a BNF description for the filtergraph syntax:
@example
@var{NAME} ::= sequence of alphanumeric characters and '_'
@var{FILTER_ARGUMENTS} ::= sequence of chars (eventually quoted)
@var{FILTER} ::= [@var{LINKNAMES}] @var{NAME} ["=" @var{ARGUMENTS}] [@var{LINKNAMES}]
@var{FILTERCHAIN} ::= @var{FILTER} [,@var{FILTERCHAIN}]
-@var{FILTERGRAPH} ::= @var{FILTERCHAIN} [;@var{FILTERGRAPH}]
+@var{FILTERGRAPH} ::= [sws_flags=@var{flags};] @var{FILTERCHAIN} [;@var{FILTERGRAPH}]

+@section colormatrix
+
+The colormatrix filter allows conversion between any of the following color
+space: BT.709 (@var{bt709}), BT.601 (@var{bt601}), SMPTE-240M (@var{smpte240m})
+and FCC (@var{fcc}).
+
+The syntax of the parameters is @var{source}:@var{destination}:
+
+@example
+colormatrix=bt601:smpte240m

+
@section copy
Copy the input source unchanged to the output. Mainly useful for
frame rate (timecode only)
@end table
+If libavfilter was built with @code{--enable-fontconfig}, then
+@option{fontfile} can be a fontconfig pattern or omitted.

Some examples follow.
@itemize
drawtext=fontsize=60:fontfile=FreeSerif.ttf:fontcolor=green:text=g:x=(w-max_glyph_w)/2:y=h/2-ascent
@end example
+@item
+Use fontconfig to set the font. Note that the colons need to be escaped.

Compute a look-up table for binding each pixel component input value
The list of the currently supported filters follows:
@table @var
-@item 2xsai
@item decimate
@item denoise3d
@item detc
@item ivtc
@item kerndeint
@item mcdeint
-@item mirror
@item noise

@item palette
@item pullup
@item qp
@item rectangle
-@item remove-logo
@item rotate
@item sab
@item screenshot
Some examples follow:
@example
-# remove a logo by interpolating the surrounding pixels
-mp=delogo=200:200:80:20:1
-
# adjust gamma, brightness, contrast
mp=eq2=1.0:2:0.5
overlay=main_w-overlay_w-10:main_h-overlay_h-10
# insert a transparent PNG logo in the bottom left corner of the input

+@section removelogo
+
+Suppress a TV station logo, using an image file to determine which
+pixels comprise the logo. It works by filling in the pixels that
+comprise the logo with neighboring pixels.
+
+This filter requires one argument which specifies the filter bitmap
+file, which can be any image format supported by libavformat. The
+width and height of the image file must match those of the video
+stream being processed.
+
+Pixels in the provided bitmap image with a value of zero are not
+considered part of the logo, non-zero pixels are considered part of
+the logo. If you use white (255) for the logo and black (0) for the
+rest, you will be safe. For making the filter bitmap, it is
+recommended to take a screen capture of a black frame with the logo
+visible, and then using a threshold filter followed by the erode
+filter once or twice.
+
+If needed, little splotches can be fixed manually. Remember that if
+logo pixels are not covered, the filter quality will be much
+reduced. Marking too many pixels as part of the logo does not hurt as
+much, but it will increase the amount of blurring needed to cover over
+the image and will destroy more information than necessary, and extra
+pixels will slow things down on a large logo.
+
@section scale
Scale the input video to @var{width}:@var{height}[:@var{interl}=@{1|-1@}] and/or convert the image format.
The @code{setfield} filter marks the interlace type field for the
output frames. It does not change the input frame, but only sets the
corresponding property, which affects how the frame is treated by
-followig filters (e.g. @code{fieldorder} or @code{yadif}).
+following filters (e.g. @code{fieldorder} or @code{yadif}).

+@item auto
Keep the same field property.
-@item 0, bff
+@item bff

will create two separate outputs from the same input, one cropped and
one padded.
+@section super2xsai
+
+Scale the input by 2x and smooth using the Super2xSaI (Scale and
+Interpolate) pixel art scaling algorithm.
