Convert the audio sample format, sample rate and channel layout. This filter is
not meant to be used directly.
@section volumedetect
Detect the volume of the input video.
The filter has no parameters. The input is not modified. Statistics about
the volume will be printed in the log when the input stream end is reached.
In particular it will show the mean volume (root mean square), maximum
volume (on a per-sample basis), and the beginning of an histogram of the
registered volume values (from the maximum value to a cumulated 1/1000 of
the samples).
All volumes are in decibels relative to the maximum PCM value.
Here is an excerpt of the output:
@example
[Parsed_volumedetect_0 @ 0xa23120] mean_volume: -27 dB
[Parsed_volumedetect_0 @ 0xa23120] max_volume: -4 dB
[Parsed_volumedetect_0 @ 0xa23120] histogram_4db: 6
[Parsed_volumedetect_0 @ 0xa23120] histogram_5db: 62
[Parsed_volumedetect_0 @ 0xa23120] histogram_6db: 286
[Parsed_volumedetect_0 @ 0xa23120] histogram_7db: 1042
[Parsed_volumedetect_0 @ 0xa23120] histogram_8db: 2551
[Parsed_volumedetect_0 @ 0xa23120] histogram_9db: 4609
[Parsed_volumedetect_0 @ 0xa23120] histogram_10db: 8409
@end example
It means that:
@itemize
@item
The mean square energy is approximately -27 dB, or 10^-2.7.
@item
The largest sample is at -4 dB, or more precisely between -4 dB and -5 dB.
@item
There are 6 samples at -4 dB, 62 at -5 dB, 286 at -6 dB, etc.
@end itemize
In other words, raising the volume by +4 dB does not cause any clipping,
raising it by +5 dB causes clipping for 6 samples, etc.
@section volume
Adjust the input audio volume.
