[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH 4/4] lavfi/drawtext: implement more generic expansion.

Nicolas George nicolas.george at normalesup.org
Sat Nov 17 11:52:22 CET 2012


The new expansion mechanism uses the %{...} notation.
For compatibility reasons, it must be enabled explicitly,
but a warning is printed if a change is likely to happen.

TODO micro bump

+The backslash character '\', followed by any character, always expands to

+Sequence of the form @code{%@{...@}} are expanded. The text between the

+If the arguments contain special characters or delimiters (':' or '@}'),

+Note that they probably must also be escaped as the value for the

+argument in the filter graph description, and possibly also for the shell,
