Okay, I get that case, though it seems a bit special. Isn't this just a debug feature for developers then? > Much more useful examples for textsub>>textsub filters would be like: > > - Censoring filter > - Translation filter (lingual) > - Include Actor Name filter > > Though, I wanted to have something super-simple for demonstration of the > new ability to have textsub>>textsub filters. Well, at least it demonstrates the boilerplate required for a simple S->S filter, which touches only text (no timings or positioning or so). A review of this boilerplate would be great. For the sake of review: - You need to add documentation to doc/filters.texi. - You need to bump MINOR in libavfilter/version.h. > Maybe an "sallcaps" filter makes slightly more sense than "sleet"? For the sake of usability, I would rather have suggested something like "tr" (https://linux.die.net/man/1/tr, https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/perl-tr-operator/), where you can specify the replacement list. That said, tr has some funky shortcuts ("[a-z] [A-Z]" for uppercase, which may be harder to implement). Or actual regular expression support. What I suggest is still not really useful for a user, though. Or is it?
