    @chapter Description
    @c man begin DESCRIPTION
    
    The FFmpeg resampler provides an high-level interface to the
    libswresample library audio resampling utilities. In particular it
    allows to perform audio resampling, audio channel layout rematrixing,
    and convert audio format and packing layout.

    @chapter Resampler Options
    @c man begin RESAMPLER OPTIONS
    
    The audio resampler supports the following named options.
    
    Options may be set by specifying -@var{option} @var{value} in the
    
    FFmpeg tools, @var{option}=@var{value} for the aresample filter,
    by setting the value explicitly in the
    
    @code{SwrContext} options or using the @file{libavutil/opt.h} API for
    programmatic use.
    
    @table @option
    
    @item ich, in_channel_count
    Set the number of input channels. Default value is 0. Setting this
    value is not mandatory if the corresponding channel layout
    @option{in_channel_layout} is set.
    
    @item och, out_channel_count
    Set the number of output channels. Default value is 0. Setting this
    value is not mandatory if the corresponding channel layout
    @option{out_channel_layout} is set.
    
    @item uch, used_channel_count
    
    Set the number of used input channels. Default value is 0. This option is
    
    only used for special remapping.
    
    @item isr, in_sample_rate
    Set the input sample rate. Default value is 0.
    
    @item osr, out_sample_rate
    Set the output sample rate. Default value is 0.
    
    @item isf, in_sample_fmt
    
    Specify the input sample format. It is set by default to @code{none}.
    
    Specify the output sample format. It is set by default to @code{none}.
    
    Set the internal sample format. Default value is @code{none}.
    
    This will automatically be chosen when it is not explicitly set.
    
    
    @item icl, in_channel_layout
    Set the input channel layout.
    
    @item ocl, out_channel_layout
    Set the output channel layout.
    
    @item clev, center_mix_level
    
    Set the center mix level. It is a value expressed in deciBel, and must be
    in the interval [-32,32].
    
    Set the surround mix level. It is a value expressed in deciBel, and must
    be in the interval [-32,32].

    @item lfe_mix_level
    
    Set LFE mix into non LFE level. It is used when there is a LFE input but no
    LFE output. It is a value expressed in deciBel, and must
    
    be in the interval [-32,32].
    
    
    @item rmvol, rematrix_volume
    Set rematrix volume. Default value is 1.0.
    
    @item flags, swr_flags
    Set flags used by the converter. Default value is 0.
    
    It supports the following individual flags:
    @table @option
    @item res
    
    force resampling, this flag forces resampling to be used even when the
    input and output sample rates match.
    
    @end table
    
    @item dither_scale
    Set the dither scale. Default value is 1.
    
    @item dither_method
    Set dither method. Default value is 0.
    
    Supported values:
    @table @samp
    @item rectangular
    select rectangular dither
    @item triangular
    select triangular dither
    @item triangular_hp
    select triangular dither with high pass
    
    @item lipshitz
    select lipshitz noise shaping dither
    @item shibata
    select shibata noise shaping dither
    @item low_shibata
    select low shibata noise shaping dither
    @item high_shibata
    select high shibata noise shaping dither
    @item f_weighted
    select f-weighted noise shaping dither
    @item modified_e_weighted
    select modified-e-weighted noise shaping dither
    @item improved_e_weighted
    select improved-e-weighted noise shaping dither

    @item resampler
    Set resampling engine. Default value is swr.
    
    Supported values:
    @table @samp
    @item swr
    select the native SW Resampler; filter options precision and cheby are not
    applicable in this case.
    @item soxr
    select the SoX Resampler (where available); compensation, and filter options
    filter_size, phase_shift, filter_type & kaiser_beta, are not applicable in this
    case.
    @end table
    
    
    For swr only, set resampling filter size, default value is 32.
    
    For swr only, set resampling phase shift, default value is 10, and must be in
    the interval [0,30].
    
    
    @item linear_interp
    Use Linear Interpolation if set to 1, default value is 0.
    
    @item cutoff
    
    Rob Sykes's avatar
    Rob Sykes committed
    Set cutoff frequency (swr: 6dB point; soxr: 0dB point) ratio; must be a float
    
    value between 0 and 1.  Default value is 0.97 with swr, and 0.91 with soxr

    (which, with a sample-rate of 44100, preserves the entire audio band to 20kHz).
    
    @item precision
    For soxr only, the precision in bits to which the resampled signal will be
    calculated.  The default value of 20 (which, with suitable dithering, is
    appropriate for a destination bit-depth of 16) gives SoX's 'High Quality'; a
    value of 28 gives SoX's 'Very High Quality'.
    
    @item cheby
    For soxr only, selects passband rolloff none (Chebyshev) & higher-precision
    approximation for 'irrational' ratios. Default value is 0.
    
    @item async
    For swr only, simple 1 parameter audio sync to timestamps using stretching,
    squeezing, filling and trimming. Setting this to 1 will enable filling and
    trimming, larger values represent the maximum amount in samples that the data
    may be stretched or squeezed for each second.
    Default value is 0, thus no compensation is applied to make the samples match
    the audio timestamps.
    
    
    @item first_pts
    For swr only, assume the first pts should be this value. The time unit is 1 / sample rate.
    This allows for padding/trimming at the start of stream. By default, no
    assumption is made about the first frame's expected pts, so no padding or
    trimming is done. For example, this could be set to 0 to pad the beginning with
    silence if an audio stream starts after the video stream or to trim any samples
    with a negative pts due to encoder delay.

    For swr only, set the minimum difference between timestamps and audio data (in
    
    seconds) to trigger stretching/squeezing/filling or trimming of the
    data to make it match the timestamps. The default is that
    stretching/squeezing/filling and trimming is disabled
    (@option{min_comp} = @code{FLT_MAX}).

    For swr only, set the minimum difference between timestamps and audio data (in
    
    seconds) to trigger adding/dropping samples to make it match the
    timestamps.  This option effectively is a threshold to select between
    hard (trim/fill) and soft (squeeze/stretch) compensation. Note that
    all compensation is by default disabled through @option{min_comp}.
    The default is 0.1.

    For swr only, set duration (in seconds) over which data is stretched/squeezed
    to make it match the timestamps. Must be a non-negative double float value,
    default value is 1.0.

    For swr only, set maximum factor by which data is stretched/squeezed to make it
    match the timestamps. Must be a non-negative double float value, default value
    is 0.
    
    
    @item matrix_encoding
    Select matrixed stereo encoding.
    
    It accepts the following values:
    @table @samp
    @item none
    select none
    @item dolby
    select Dolby
    @item dplii
    select Dolby Pro Logic II
    @end table
    
    Default value is @code{none}.
    
    @item filter_type
    
    Rob Sykes's avatar
    Rob Sykes committed
    For swr only, select resampling filter type. This only affects resampling
    
    operations.
    
    It accepts the following values:
    @table @samp
    @item cubic
    select cubic
    @item blackman_nuttall
    select Blackman Nuttall Windowed Sinc
    @item kaiser
    select Kaiser Windowed Sinc
    @end table
    
    @item kaiser_beta
    
    For swr only, set Kaiser Window Beta value. Must be an integer in the
    interval [2,16], default value is 9.
