Hi All

I capture video stream from webcam and show video on screen.

The same stream goes through the 'metadata' multimedia filter as shown below:

ffmpeg -y -f v4l2 -input_format mjpeg -s hd480 -r 30 -i /dev/video2 -filter_complex "[0:0]select='gte(scene,0)',metadata=print:file='movement.txt',null[X]" -map '[X]' -pix_fmt yuv420p -f xv Title

The text file 'movement.txt' gets information about each frame. BUT data is written to text file 'movement.txt' buffered. Is there any way to write data to text file 'movement.txt' as each frame is processed?

Not at present. The file protocol will buffer up to 256 kB and then write out. There is an option to write immediately but it isn't applied to the metadata filter as its I/O context is isolated. I plan to patch that soon-ish.
