#9066: Enable explicit output extension -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: tes45t | Owner: Type: enhancement | Status: new Priority: normal | Component: ffmpeg Version: git-master | Resolution: Keywords: ffmpeg, | Blocked By: output, file, extension, type, | format | Blocking: | Reproduced by developer: 0 Analyzed by developer: 0 | -------------------------------------+-------------------------------------
Comment (by tes45t): Sorry, but I think this is the most fundamental feature. Deducing muxer info from the output file extension, while lacking explicit extension- muxer mapping, seems unnecessarily restrictive. There are a lot of use cases I experienced when I want extensionless output and want to do it programmatically. Also av_guess_format is an API function. I can ask my users to download FFmpeg binaries, but I can't force them to compile my program from source in order to include libavformat APIs (and also that would imply version dependency incompatibilities if user's FFmpeg is different version). -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.ffmpeg.org/ticket/9066#comment:2> FFmpeg <https://ffmpeg.org> FFmpeg issue tracker _______________________________________________ FFmpeg-trac mailing list FFmpeg-trac@avcodec.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-trac To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-trac-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
