[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] Changed metadata print option to accept general urls

[sami.hult at gmail.com]

From: Sami Hult <sami.hult at gmail.com>

I changed output=print file handling of metadata filter to accept any ffmpeg url. This way multiple streams can for example be silencedetected and the result directed to different outputs.

Example:

ffmpeg -i test.wav -filter_complex "silencedetect=n=-40dB:d=0.1,ametadata=mode=print:file='pipe\:4'" -f null - 4> test.txt

should have the same effect as

ffmpeg -i test.wav -filter_complex "silencedetect=n=-40dB:d=0.1,ametadata=mode=print:test.txt" -f null -
