documenting lavdopts debug=0x4000
by Jeff Clagg 10 Feb '06

10 Feb '06

Well, there are probably MANY things that could be added to the documentation of lavdopts, but currently the easiest way to decipher the meaning of the output of "lavdopts debug=0x4000" is a combination of rtfs and lavdopts debug=0x4008. However, once we open this can of worms, the lavdopts section of the man page might become extremely long. Nevertheless, I'm going to suggest that we add explanations in the man page of what each block tint/color actually means. One of my questions is, should we stick to the old vertical listing style, which takes up a heck of a lot of space, or just list them in sentence form? While you argue that, here's my (hopefully correct and complete) list of what all the colors mean: Red: intra Purple: 4x4 intra (H.264) Green: forward-predicted Blue: backward-predicted Cyan: bidirectionally predicted Orange: direct Black and white (untinted): skip or direct-skip Other things: lines are drawn across macroblocks to indicate partitions in inter mb's (H.264) or the use of interlacing. Also, I don't understand the colorspace used here so I'm not sure what color to report for the following block types: GMC (mpeg4 asp); PCM (H.264). I'm pretty sure intra 8x8 blocks (H.264) are colored red, but not quite positive. Other cans of worms: if we document these, why not also document all the output from debug=8 as well? Now you see how things start getting long, especially with vertical listing. And clearly even much of the output of debug=1 isn't always obvious, and some of it is codec-specific, some of it is broken afaict,...

CVS change done by Roberto Togni CVS Update of /cvsroot/mplayer/main/DOCS/man/en In directory mail:/var2/tmp/cvs-serv32532/DOCS/man/en Modified Files: mplayer.1 Log Message: This patch makes real rtsp tell the server to deliver data at specified bandwidth, if bandwidth cmdline option is given. Also, if that's given, it uses it for sdp stream selection. If not given, the behavior is the same as before. It's used to implement something like turboplay in realplayer.
