@chapter Input Devices
|
|
@c man begin INPUT DEVICES
|
|
|
|
Input devices are configured elements in FFmpeg which enable accessing
|
|
the data coming from a multimedia device attached to your system.
|
|
|
|
When you configure your FFmpeg build, all the supported input devices
|
|
are enabled by default. You can list all available ones using the
|
|
configure option "--list-indevs".
|
|
|
|
You can disable all the input devices using the configure option
|
|
"--disable-indevs", and selectively enable an input device using the
|
|
option "--enable-indev=@var{INDEV}", or you can disable a particular
|
|
input device using the option "--disable-indev=@var{INDEV}".
|
|
|
|
The option "-devices" of the ff* tools will display the list of
|
|
supported input devices.
|
|
|
|
A description of the currently available input devices follows.
|
|
|
|
@section alsa
|
|
|
|
ALSA (Advanced Linux Sound Architecture) input device.
|
|
|
|
To enable this input device during configuration you need libasound
|
|
installed on your system.
|
|
|
|
This device allows capturing from an ALSA device. The name of the
|
|
device to capture has to be an ALSA card identifier.
|
|
|
|
An ALSA identifier has the syntax:
|
|
@example
|
|
hw:@var{CARD}[,@var{DEV}[,@var{SUBDEV}]]
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
where the @var{DEV} and @var{SUBDEV} components are optional.
|
|
|
|
The three arguments (in order: @var{CARD},@var{DEV},@var{SUBDEV})
|
|
specify card number or identifier, device number and subdevice number
|
|
(-1 means any).
|
|
|
|
To see the list of cards currently recognized by your system check the
|
|
files @file{/proc/asound/cards} and @file{/proc/asound/devices}.
|
|
|
|
For example to capture with @command{ffmpeg} from an ALSA device with
|
|
card id 0, you may run the command:
|
|
@example
|
|
ffmpeg -f alsa -i hw:0 alsaout.wav
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
For more information see:
|
|
@url{http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/alsa-lib/pcm.html}
|
|
|
|
@subsection Options
|
|
|
|
@table @option
|
|
|
|
@item sample_rate
|
|
Set the sample rate in Hz. Default is 48000.
|
|
|
|
@item channels
|
|
Set the number of channels. Default is 2.
|
|
|
|
@end table
|
|
|
|
@section avfoundation
|
|
|
|
AVFoundation input device.
|
|
|
|
AVFoundation is the currently recommended framework by Apple for streamgrabbing on OSX >= 10.7 as well as on iOS.
|
|
The older QTKit framework has been marked deprecated since OSX version 10.7.
|
|
|
|
The input filename has to be given in the following syntax:
|
|
@example
|
|
-i "[[VIDEO]:[AUDIO]]"
|
|
@end example
|
|
The first entry selects the video input while the latter selects the audio input.
|
|
The stream has to be specified by the device name or the device index as shown by the device list.
|
|
Alternatively, the video and/or audio input device can be chosen by index using the
|
|
@option{
|
|
-video_device_index <INDEX>
|
|
}
|
|
and/or
|
|
@option{
|
|
-audio_device_index <INDEX>
|
|
}
|
|
, overriding any
|
|
device name or index given in the input filename.
|
|
|
|
All available devices can be enumerated by using @option{-list_devices true}, listing
|
|
all device names and corresponding indices.
|
|
|
|
There are two device name aliases:
|
|
@table @code
|
|
|
|
@item default
|
|
Select the AVFoundation default device of the corresponding type.
|
|
|
|
@item none
|
|
Do not record the corresponding media type.
|
|
This is equivalent to specifying an empty device name or index.
|
|
|
|
@end table
|
|
|
|
@subsection Options
|
|
|
|
AVFoundation supports the following options:
|
|
|
|
@table @option
|
|
|
|
@item -list_devices <TRUE|FALSE>
|

@section decklink
|
|
|
|
The decklink input device provides capture capabilities for Blackmagic
|
|
DeckLink devices.
|
|
|
|
To enable this input device, you need the Blackmagic DeckLink SDK and you
|
|
need to configure with the appropriate @code{--extra-cflags}
|
|
and @code{--extra-ldflags}.
|
|
On Windows, you need to run the IDL files through @command{widl}.
|
|
|
|
DeckLink is very picky about the formats it supports. Pixel format is
|
|
uyvy422 or v210, framerate and video size must be determined for your device with
|
|
@command{-list_formats 1}. Audio sample rate is always 48 kHz and the number
|
|
of channels can be 2, 8 or 16. Note that all audio channels are bundled in one single
|
|
audio track.
|
|
|
|
@subsection Options
|
|
|
|
@table @option
|
|
|
|
@item list_devices
|
|
If set to @option{true}, print a list of devices and exit.
|
|
Defaults to @option{false}.
|
|
|
|
@item list_formats
|
|
If set to @option{true}, print a list of supported formats and exit.
|
|
Defaults to @option{false}.
|
|
|
|
@item format_code <FourCC>
|
|
This sets the input video format to the format given by the FourCC. To see
|
|
the supported values of your device(s) use @option{list_formats}.
|
|
Note that there is a FourCC @option{'pal '} that can also be used
|
|
as @option{pal} (3 letters).
|
|
|
|
@item bm_v210
|
|
If set to @samp{1}, video is captured in 10 bit v210 instead
|
|
of uyvy422. Not all Blackmagic devices support this option.
|
|
|
|
@item teletext_lines
|
|
If set to nonzero, an additional teletext stream will be captured from the
|
|
vertical ancillary data. This option is a bitmask of the VBI lines checked,
|
|
specifically lines 6 to 22, and lines 318 to 335. Line 6 is the LSB in the mask.
|
|
Selected lines which do not contain teletext information will be ignored. You
|
|
can use the special @option{all} constant to select all possible lines, or
|
|
@option{standard} to skip lines 6, 318 and 319, which are not compatible with all
|
|
receivers. Capturing teletext only works for SD PAL sources in 8 bit mode.
|
|
To use this option, ffmpeg needs to be compiled with @code{--enable-libzvbi}.
|
|
|
|
@item channels
|
|
Defines number of audio channels to capture. Must be @samp{2}, @samp{8} or @samp{16}.
|

@item video_input
|
|
Sets the video input source. Must be @samp{unset}, @samp{sdi}, @samp{hdmi},
|
|
@samp{optical_sdi}, @samp{component}, @samp{composite} or @samp{s_video}.
|
|
Defaults to @samp{unset}.
|
|
|
|
@item audio_input
|
|
Sets the audio input source. Must be @samp{unset}, @samp{embedded},
|
|
@samp{aes_ebu}, @samp{analog}, @samp{analog_xlr}, @samp{analog_rca} or
|
|
@samp{microphone}. Defaults to @samp{unset}.
|
|
|
|
@item video_pts
|
|
Sets the video packet timestamp source. Must be @samp{video}, @samp{audio},
|
|
@samp{reference} or @samp{wallclock}. Defaults to @samp{video}.
|
|
|
|
@item audio_pts
|
|
Sets the audio packet timestamp source. Must be @samp{video}, @samp{audio},

|
|
Currently only audio and video devices are supported.
|
|
|
|
Multiple devices may be opened as separate inputs, but they may also be
|
|
opened on the same input, which should improve synchronism between them.
|
|
|
|
The input name should be in the format:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
@var{TYPE}=@var{NAME}[:@var{TYPE}=@var{NAME}]
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
where @var{TYPE} can be either @var{audio} or @var{video},
|
|
and @var{NAME} is the device's name or alternative name..
|
|
|

@section fbdev
|
|
|
|
Linux framebuffer input device.
|
|
|
|
The Linux framebuffer is a graphic hardware-independent abstraction
|
|
layer to show graphics on a computer monitor, typically on the
|
|
console. It is accessed through a file device node, usually
|
|
@file{/dev/fb0}.
|
|
|
|
For more detailed information read the file
|
|
Documentation/fb/framebuffer.txt included in the Linux source tree.
|
|
|
|
See also @url{http://linux-fbdev.sourceforge.net/}, and fbset(1).
|
|
|
|
To record from the framebuffer device @file{/dev/fb0} with
|
|
@command{ffmpeg}:
|
|
@example
|
|
ffmpeg -f fbdev -framerate 10 -i /dev/fb0 out.avi
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
You can take a single screenshot image with the command:
|
|
@example
|
|
ffmpeg -f fbdev -framerate 1 -i /dev/fb0 -frames:v 1 screenshot.jpeg
|
|
@end example
|

@section gdigrab
|
|
|
|
Win32 GDI-based screen capture device.
|
|
|
|
This device allows you to capture a region of the display on Windows.
|
|
|
|
There are two options for the input filename:
|
|
@example
|
|
desktop
|
|
@end example
|
|
or
|
|
@example
|
|
title=@var{window_title}
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
The first option will capture the entire desktop, or a fixed region of the
|
|
desktop. The second option will instead capture the contents of a single
|
|
window, regardless of its position on the screen.
|
|
|
|
For example, to grab the entire desktop using @command{ffmpeg}:
|
|
@example
|
|
ffmpeg -f gdigrab -framerate 6 -i desktop out.mpg
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
Grab a 640x480 region at position @code{10,20}:
|
|
@example
|
|
ffmpeg -f gdigrab -framerate 6 -offset_x 10 -offset_y 20 -video_size vga -i desktop out.mpg
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
Grab the contents of the window named "Calculator"
|
|
@example
|
|
ffmpeg -f gdigrab -framerate 6 -i title=Calculator out.mpg
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
@subsection Options
|
|
|
|
@table @option
|
|
@item draw_mouse
|
|
Specify whether to draw the mouse pointer. Use the value @code{0} to
|
|
not draw the pointer. Default value is @code{1}.
|
|
|
|
@item framerate
|
|
Set the grabbing frame rate. Default value is @code{ntsc},
|
|
corresponding to a frame rate of @code{30000/1001}.
|
|
|
|
@item show_region
|
|
Show grabbed region on screen.
|
|
|
|
If @var{show_region} is specified with @code{1}, then the grabbing
|
|
region will be indicated on screen. With this option, it is easy to
|
|
know what is being grabbed if only a portion of the screen is grabbed.
|
|
|
|
Note that @var{show_region} is incompatible with grabbing the contents
|
|
of a single window.
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
@example
|
|
ffmpeg -f gdigrab -show_region 1 -framerate 6 -video_size cif -offset_x 10 -offset_y 20 -i desktop out.mpg
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
@item video_size
|
|
Set the video frame size. The default is to capture the full screen if @file{desktop} is selected, or the full window size if @file{title=@var{window_title}} is selected.
|
|
|
|
@item offset_x
|
|
When capturing a region with @var{video_size}, set the distance from the left edge of the screen or desktop.
|
|
|
|
Note that the offset calculation is from the top left corner of the primary monitor on Windows. If you have a monitor positioned to the left of your primary monitor, you will need to use a negative @var{offset_x} value to move the region to that monitor.
|
|
|
|
@item offset_y
|
|
When capturing a region with @var{video_size}, set the distance from the top edge of the screen or desktop.
|
|
|
|
Note that the offset calculation is from the top left corner of the primary monitor on Windows. If you have a monitor positioned above your primary monitor, you will need to use a negative @var{offset_y} value to move the region to that monitor.

@section iec61883
|
|
|
|
FireWire DV/HDV input device using libiec61883.
|
|
|
|
To enable this input device, you need libiec61883, libraw1394 and
|
|
libavc1394 installed on your system. Use the configure option
|
|
@code{--enable-libiec61883} to compile with the device enabled.
|
|
|
|
The iec61883 capture device supports capturing from a video device
|
|
connected via IEEE1394 (FireWire), using libiec61883 and the new Linux
|
|
FireWire stack (juju). This is the default DV/HDV input method in Linux
|
|
Kernel 2.6.37 and later, since the old FireWire stack was removed.
|
|
|
|
Specify the FireWire port to be used as input file, or "auto"
|
|
to choose the first port connected.
|
|
|
|
@subsection Options
|
|
|
|
@table @option
|
|
|
|
@item dvtype
|
|
Override autodetection of DV/HDV. This should only be used if auto
|
|
detection does not work, or if usage of a different device type
|
|
should be prohibited. Treating a DV device as HDV (or vice versa) will
|
|
not work and result in undefined behavior.
|
|
The values @option{auto}, @option{dv} and @option{hdv} are supported.
|
|
|
|
@item dvbuffer
|
|
Set maximum size of buffer for incoming data, in frames. For DV, this
|
|
is an exact value. For HDV, it is not frame exact, since HDV does
|
|
not have a fixed frame size.
|
|
|
|
@item dvguid
|
|
Select the capture device by specifying its GUID. Capturing will only
|
|
be performed from the specified device and fails if no device with the
|
|
given GUID is found. This is useful to select the input if multiple
|
|
devices are connected at the same time.
|
|
Look at /sys/bus/firewire/devices to find out the GUIDs.

@section jack
|
|
|
|
JACK input device.
|
|
|
|
To enable this input device during configuration you need libjack
|
|
installed on your system.
|
|
|
|
A JACK input device creates one or more JACK writable clients, one for
|
|
each audio channel, with name @var{client_name}:input_@var{N}, where
|
|
@var{client_name} is the name provided by the application, and @var{N}
|
|
is a number which identifies the channel.
|
|
Each writable client will send the acquired data to the FFmpeg input
|
|
device.
|
|
|
|
Once you have created one or more JACK readable clients, you need to
|
|
connect them to one or more JACK writable clients.
|
|
|
|
To connect or disconnect JACK clients you can use the @command{jack_connect}
|
|
and @command{jack_disconnect} programs, or do it through a graphical interface,
|
|
for example with @command{qjackctl}.
|
|
|
|
To list the JACK clients and their properties you can invoke the command
|
|
@command{jack_lsp}.
|
|
|
|
Follows an example which shows how to capture a JACK readable client
|
|
with @command{ffmpeg}.
|
|
@example
|
|
# Create a JACK writable client with name "ffmpeg".
|
|
$ ffmpeg -f jack -i ffmpeg -y out.wav
|
|
|
|
# Start the sample jack_metro readable client.
|
|
$ jack_metro -b 120 -d 0.2 -f 4000
|
|
|
|
# List the current JACK clients.
|
|
$ jack_lsp -c

@section lavfi
|
|
|
|
Libavfilter input virtual device.
|
|
|
|
This input device reads data from the open output pads of a libavfilter
|
|
filtergraph.
|
|
|
|
For each filtergraph open output, the input device will create a
|
|
corresponding stream which is mapped to the generated output. Currently
|
|
only video data is supported. The filtergraph is specified through the
|
|
option @option{graph}.
|
|
|
|
@subsection Options
|
|
|
|
@table @option
|
|
|
|
@item graph
|
|
Specify the filtergraph to use as input. Each video open output must be
|
|
labelled by a unique string of the form "out@var{N}", where @var{N} is a
|
|
number starting from 0 corresponding to the mapped input stream
|
|
generated by the device.
|
|
The first unlabelled output is automatically assigned to the "out0"
|
|
label, but all the others need to be specified explicitly.
|
|
|
|
The suffix "+subcc" can be appended to the output label to create an extra
|
|
stream with the closed captions packets attached to that output
|
|
(experimental; only for EIA-608 / CEA-708 for now).
|
|
The subcc streams are created after all the normal streams, in the order of
|
|
the corresponding stream.
|
|
For example, if there is "out19+subcc", "out7+subcc" and up to "out42", the
|
|
stream #43 is subcc for stream #7 and stream #44 is subcc for stream #19.
|
|
|
|
If not specified defaults to the filename specified for the input
|
|
device.
|
|
|
|
@item graph_file
|
|
Set the filename of the filtergraph to be read and sent to the other
|
|
filters. Syntax of the filtergraph is the same as the one specified by
|
|
the option @var{graph}.
|
|
|
|
@item dumpgraph
|
|
Dump graph to stderr.

|
QTKit input device.
|
|
|
|
The filename passed as input is parsed to contain either a device name or index.
|
|
The device index can also be given by using -video_device_index.
|
|
A given device index will override any given device name.
|
|
If the desired device consists of numbers only, use -video_device_index to identify it.
|
|
The default device will be chosen if an empty string or the device name "default" is given.
|
|
The available devices can be enumerated by using -list_devices.
|
|
|
|

@section sndio
|
|
|
|
sndio input device.
|
|
|
|
To enable this input device during configuration you need libsndio
|
|
installed on your system.
|
|
|
|
The filename to provide to the input device is the device node
|
|
representing the sndio input device, and is usually set to
|
|
@file{/dev/audio0}.
|
|
|
|
For example to grab from @file{/dev/audio0} using @command{ffmpeg} use the
|
|
command:
|
|
@example
|
|
ffmpeg -f sndio -i /dev/audio0 /tmp/oss.wav

@section video4linux2, v4l2
|
|
|
|
Video4Linux2 input video device.
|
|
|
|
"v4l2" can be used as alias for "video4linux2".
|
|
|
|
If FFmpeg is built with v4l-utils support (by using the
|
|
@code{--enable-libv4l2} configure option), it is possible to use it with the
|
|
@code{-use_libv4l2} input device option.
|
|
|
|
The name of the device to grab is a file device node, usually Linux
|
|
systems tend to automatically create such nodes when the device
|
|
(e.g. an USB webcam) is plugged into the system, and has a name of the
|
|
kind @file{/dev/video@var{N}}, where @var{N} is a number associated to
|
|
the device.
|
|
|
|
Video4Linux2 devices usually support a limited set of
|
|
@var{width}x@var{height} sizes and frame rates. You can check which are
|
|
supported using @command{-list_formats all} for Video4Linux2 devices.
|
|
Some devices, like TV cards, support one or more standards. It is possible
|
|
to list all the supported standards using @command{-list_standards all}.
|
|
|
|
The time base for the timestamps is 1 microsecond. Depending on the kernel
|
|
version and configuration, the timestamps may be derived from the real time
|
|
clock (origin at the Unix Epoch) or the monotonic clock (origin usually at
|
|
boot time, unaffected by NTP or manual changes to the clock). The
|
|
@option{-timestamps abs} or @option{-ts abs} option can be used to force
|
|
conversion into the real time clock.
|
|
|
|
Some usage examples of the video4linux2 device with @command{ffmpeg}
|
|
and @command{ffplay}:
|

@section x11grab
|
|
|
|
X11 video input device.
|
|
|
|
To enable this input device during configuration you need libxcb
|
|
installed on your system. It will be automatically detected during
|
|
configuration.
|
|
|
|
This device allows one to capture a region of an X11 display.
|
|
|
|
The filename passed as input has the syntax:
|
|
@example
|
|
[@var{hostname}]:@var{display_number}.@var{screen_number}[+@var{x_offset},@var{y_offset}]
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
@var{hostname}:@var{display_number}.@var{screen_number} specifies the
|
|
X11 display name of the screen to grab from. @var{hostname} can be
|
|
omitted, and defaults to "localhost". The environment variable
|
|
@env{DISPLAY} contains the default display name.
|
|
|
|
@var{x_offset} and @var{y_offset} specify the offsets of the grabbed
|
|
area with respect to the top-left border of the X11 screen. They
|
|
default to 0.
|
|
|
|
Check the X11 documentation (e.g. @command{man X}) for more detailed
|
|
information.
|
|
|
|
Use the @command{xdpyinfo} program for getting basic information about
|
|
the properties of your X11 display (e.g. grep for "name" or
|
|
"dimensions").
|
|
|
|
For example to grab from @file{:0.0} using @command{ffmpeg}:
|
|
@example
|
|
ffmpeg -f x11grab -framerate 25 -video_size cif -i :0.0 out.mpg
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
Grab at position @code{10,20}:
|
|
@example
|
|
ffmpeg -f x11grab -framerate 25 -video_size cif -i :0.0+10,20 out.mpg
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
@subsection Options
|
|
|
|
@table @option
|
|
@item draw_mouse
|
|
Specify whether to draw the mouse pointer. A value of @code{0} specifies
|
|
not to draw the pointer. Default value is @code{1}.
|
|
|
|
@item follow_mouse
|
|
Make the grabbed area follow the mouse. The argument can be
|
|
@code{centered} or a number of pixels @var{PIXELS}.
|
|
|
|
When it is specified with "centered", the grabbing region follows the mouse
|
|
pointer and keeps the pointer at the center of region; otherwise, the region
|
|
follows only when the mouse pointer reaches within @var{PIXELS} (greater than
|
|
zero) to the edge of region.
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
@example
|
|
ffmpeg -f x11grab -follow_mouse centered -framerate 25 -video_size cif -i :0.0 out.mpg
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
To follow only when the mouse pointer reaches within 100 pixels to edge:
|
|
@example
|
|
ffmpeg -f x11grab -follow_mouse 100 -framerate 25 -video_size cif -i :0.0 out.mpg
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
@item framerate
|
|
Set the grabbing frame rate. Default value is @code{ntsc},
|
|
corresponding to a frame rate of @code{30000/1001}.
|
|
|
|
@item show_region
|
|
Show grabbed region on screen.
|
|
|
|
If @var{show_region} is specified with @code{1}, then the grabbing
|
|
region will be indicated on screen. With this option, it is easy to
|
|
know what is being grabbed if only a portion of the screen is grabbed.
|
|
|
|
@item region_border
|
|
Set the region border thickness if @option{-show_region 1} is used.
|
|
Range is 1 to 128 and default is 3 (XCB-based x11grab only).
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
@example
|
|
ffmpeg -f x11grab -show_region 1 -framerate 25 -video_size cif -i :0.0+10,20 out.mpg
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
With @var{follow_mouse}:
|
|
@example
|
|
ffmpeg -f x11grab -follow_mouse centered -show_region 1 -framerate 25 -video_size cif -i :0.0 out.mpg
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
@item video_size
|
|
Set the video frame size. Default value is @code{vga}.
|
|
|
|
@item grab_x
|
|
@item grab_y
|
|
Set the grabbing region coordinates. They are expressed as offset from
|
|
the top left corner of the X11 window and correspond to the
|
|
@var{x_offset} and @var{y_offset} parameters in the device name. The
|
|
default value for both options is 0.
