No? lavc/flacenc computes md5 from the actual samples and puts it in the extradata. If you mean incomplete file copy (cp) rather then ffmpeg -acodec copy then this will output what the user is likely interested in: the MD5 of the original data. This allows them to check that the file decodes correctly. This also applies to incomplete remuxing, which also won't recompute the MD5 as it is, AFAICT. But, this patch concerns the demuxer side, not transcoding or remuxing. > Apart from that, is it really necessary to export the md5 as > metadata given that it is very easily obtainable from the extradata? I'm not sure if our users know that. But yes metadata can be dumped and then cut can be used to extract the MD5. But as Michael points out, flac isn't the only codec with MD5 hashes. /Tomas _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-devel-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
