Function Documentation

int av_get_output_timestamp ( struct AVFormatContext s,
int  stream,
int64_t *  dts,
int64_t *  wall 
)

Get timing information for the data currently output.

The exact meaning of "currently output" depends on the format. It is mostly relevant for devices that have an internal buffer and/or work in real time.

Parameters
smedia file handle
streamstream in the media file
[out]dtsDTS of the last packet output for the stream, in stream time_base units
[out]wallabsolute time when that packet whas output, in microsecond
Returns
0 if OK, AVERROR(ENOSYS) if the format does not support it Note: some formats or devices may not allow to measure dts and wall atomically.

enum AVCodecID av_guess_codec ( AVOutputFormat fmt,
const char *  short_name,
const char *  filename,
const char *  mime_type,
enum AVMediaType  type 
)

Guess the codec ID based upon muxer and filename.

AVOutputFormat* av_guess_format ( const char *  short_name,
const char *  filename,
const char *  mime_type 
)

Return the output format in the list of registered output formats which best matches the provided parameters, or return NULL if there is no match.

Parameters
short_nameif non-NULL checks if short_name matches with the names of the registered formats
filenameif non-NULL checks if filename terminates with the extensions of the registered formats
mime_typeif non-NULL checks if mime_type matches with the MIME type of the registered formats

int av_interleaved_write_frame ( AVFormatContext s,
AVPacket pkt 
)

Write a packet to an output media file ensuring correct interleaving.

The packet must contain one audio or video frame. If the packets are already correctly interleaved, the application should call av_write_frame() instead as it is slightly faster. It is also important to keep in mind that completely non-interleaved input will need huge amounts of memory to interleave with this, so it is preferable to interleave at the demuxer level.

Parameters
smedia file handle
pktThe packet containing the data to be written. pkt->buf must be set to a valid AVBufferRef describing the packet data. Libavformat takes ownership of this reference and will unref it when it sees fit. The caller must not access the data through this reference after this function returns. This can be NULL (at any time, not just at the end), to flush the interleaving queues. Packet's stream_index field must be set to the index of the corresponding stream in s.streams. It is very strongly recommended that timing information (pts, dts duration) is set to correct values.
Returns
0 on success, a negative AVERROR on error.

int av_write_frame ( AVFormatContext s,
AVPacket pkt 
)

Write a packet to an output media file.

The packet shall contain one audio or video frame. The packet must be correctly interleaved according to the container specification, if not then av_interleaved_write_frame must be used.

Parameters
smedia file handle
pktThe packet, which contains the stream_index, buf/buf_size, dts/pts, ... This can be NULL (at any time, not just at the end), in order to immediately flush data buffered within the muxer, for muxers that buffer up data internally before writing it to the output.
Returns
< 0 on error, = 0 if OK, 1 if flushed and there is no more data to flush

int av_write_trailer ( AVFormatContext s)

Write the stream trailer to an output media file and free the file private data.

May only be called after a successful call to avformat_write_header.

Parameters
smedia file handle
Returns
0 if OK, AVERROR_xxx on error

int avformat_write_header ( AVFormatContext s,
AVDictionary **  options 
)

Allocate the stream private data and write the stream header to an output media file.

Parameters
sMedia file handle, must be allocated with avformat_alloc_context(). Its oformat field must be set to the desired output format; Its pb field must be set to an already openened AVIOContext.
optionsAn AVDictionary filled with AVFormatContext and muxer-private options. On return this parameter will be destroyed and replaced with a dict containing options that were not found. May be NULL.
Returns
0 on success, negative AVERROR on failure.
