Anton Khirnov e1b38680b7 fftools/cmdutils: put stream specifier handling back into cmdutils
Stream specifiers were originally designed exclusively for CLI use and
were not intended to be public API. Handling them in avformat places
major restrictions on how they are used. E.g. if ffmpeg CLI wishes to
override some stream parameters, it has to change the demuxer fields
(since avformat_match_stream_specifier() does not have access to
anything else). However, such fields are supposed to be read-only for
the caller.

Furthermore having this code in avformat restricts extending the
specifier syntax. An example of such an extension will be added in
following commits.

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.
