This is not documented anywhere.

Also what's your use case?

Did you have a look at:

commit 202947a0665ea523022afb0a6c50eed96bcd6b69

    libavformat/segment.c: Add strftime expansion for segment filename templates
    
    Allows expansion of the filename template with strftime() with the option
    -strftime 1 (disabled by default). This allows segments to be named by time of
    creation, adding some flexibility.
    
    Fixes Ticket 4104 (add strftime to segment muxer)

?

In case it fixes the problem for you, you could consider documenting
the option in doc/formats.texi.
