Niklas Haas 703288cec6 avcodec/internal: add FFCodec.color_ranges
I went through all codecs and put them into five basic categories:

1. JPEG range only
2. MPEG range only
3. Explicitly tagged
4. Broken (codec supports both but encoder ignores tags)
5. N/A (headerless or pseudo-formats)

Filters in category 5 remain untouched. The rest gain an explicit
assignment of their supported color ranges, with codecs in category
4 being set to MPEG-only for safety.

It might be considered redundant to distinguish between 0 (category 5)
and MPEG+JPEG (category 3), but in doing so we effectively communicate
that we can guarantee that these tags will be encoded, which is distinct
from the situation where there are some codecs that simply don't have
tagging or implied semantics (e.g. rawvideo).

A full list of codecs follows:

JPEG range only:
 - amv
 - roqvideo

MPEG range only:
 - asv1, asv2
 - avui
 - cfhd
 - cljr
 - dnxhd
 - dvvideo
 - ffv1
 - flv
 - h261, h263, h263p
 - {h263,vp8}_v4l2m2m
 - huffyuv, ffvhuff
 - jpeg2000
 - libopenjpeg
 - libtheora
 - libwebp, libwebp_anim
 - libx262
 - libxavs, libxavs2
 - libxvid
 - mpeg1video, mpeg2video
 - mpeg2_qsv
 - mpeg2_vaapi
 - mpeg4, msmpeg4, msmpeg4v2, wmv1, wmv2
 - mpeg4_omx
 - prores, prores_aw, prores_ks
 - rv10, rv20
 - snow
 - speedhq
 - svq1
 - tiff
 - utvideo

Explicitly tagged (MPEG/JPEG):
 - {av1,h264,hevc}_nvenc
 - {av1,h264,hevc}_vaapi
 - {av1,h264,hevc,vp8,vp9,mpeg4}_mediacodec
 - {av1,h264,hevc,vp9}_qsv
 - h264_amf
 - {h264,hevc,prores}_videotoolbox
 - libaom-av1
 - libkvazaar
 - libopenh264
 - librav1e
 - libsvtav1
 - libvpx, libvpx-vp9
 - libx264
 - libx265
 - ljpeg
 - mjpeg
 - vc2

Broken (encoder ignores tags):
 - {av1,hevc}_amf
 - {h264,hevc,mpeg4}_v4l2m2m
 - h264_omx
 - libxeve
 - magicyuv
 - {vp8,vp9,mjpeg}_vaapi

N/A:
 - ayuv, yuv4, y41p, v308, v210, v410, v408 (headerless)
 - pgmyuv (headerless)
 - rawvideo, bitpacked (headerless)
 - vnull, wrapped_avframe (pseudocodecs)

FFmpeg README

FFmpeg is a collection of libraries and tools to process multimedia content such as audio, video, subtitles and related metadata.

Libraries

  • libavcodec provides implementation of a wider range of codecs.
  • libavformat implements streaming protocols, container formats and basic I/O access.
  • libavutil includes hashers, decompressors and miscellaneous utility functions.
  • libavfilter provides means to alter decoded audio and video through a directed graph of connected filters.
  • libavdevice provides an abstraction to access capture and playback devices.
  • libswresample implements audio mixing and resampling routines.
  • libswscale implements color conversion and scaling routines.

Tools

  • ffmpeg is a command line toolbox to manipulate, convert and stream multimedia content.
  • ffplay is a minimalistic multimedia player.
  • ffprobe is a simple analysis tool to inspect multimedia content.
  • Additional small tools such as aviocat, ismindex and qt-faststart.

Documentation

The offline documentation is available in the doc/ directory.

The online documentation is available in the main website and in the wiki.
