As explained in https://ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg-codecs.html#Codec-Options :
Sometimes, a global option may only affect a specific kind of codec, and may be nonsensical or ignored by another, so you need to be aware of the meaning of the specified options. As far as I can tell, there is an effort to move options to private codec options, as some generic options were removed in 4.0, however it seems that there still are a lot of not-that-generic options still exposed. Can we expect more improvements in that direction in the future, under what form, and is there anything one could do to help? -- Mathieu <https://www.centricular.com> _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel
