lav2yuv(1)		       MJPEG tools manual		      lav2yuv(1)

NAME
     lav2yuv - Convert a MJPEG file to raw yuv

SYNOPSIS
     lav2yuv [options] lavfile1 [lavfile2 ... lavfileN]

DESCRIPTION
     lav2yuv  converts	an MJPEG video sequence described by a sequence of MJPEG
     video files and/or edit lists pointing to such files into the simple uncom-
     pressed planar 4:2:0 Y'CbCr format, as used by mpeg2enc(1) MPEG encoder and
     image processing filters like  yuvscaler(1)  or  yuv2dfilter(1)  or  yuvde-
     noise(1).

     Output is to stdout so that by piping the output of lav2yuv into a suitable
     pipeline  it  is  possible  to  process  and then encode or play back video
     recorded in any of the mjpegtools MJPEG container formats:  AVI,  quicktime
     or edit lists describing editted versions of video held in such files.

     Mixing different files with different video formats is currently not possi-
     ble.

     The  -S  -T  -D options are used for scene detection which is used by linux
     video studio.

OPTIONS
     lav2yuv accepts the following options:

     -m   Force mono-chrome

     -c   Conceal frames containing corrupt MJPEG data by repeating the preceed-
	  ing good frame.

     -S list.el
	  Output a scene list with scene detection

     -T num
	  Set scene detection threshold to num (default: 4)

     -D num
	  Width decimation to use for scene detection (default: 2)

     -o num
	  Frame offset - skip num frames at the beginning.  if num  is	negative
	  all but the last num frames are skipped

     -f num
	  Only	num  frames  are  written to stdout. 0 means that all frames are
	  processed.

     -A width:height
	  Set/override the sample aspect  ratio  (SAR)	emitted  in  the  output
	  stream header.  Currently, the SAR is only auto-detected for DV files,
	  and guessed otherwise.

     -P width:height
	  Set  the  intended/approximate  display  aspect  ratio  (DAR)  for the
	  stream.  This value is only used to guess the SAR when  it  cannot  be
	  detected from the input stream.  The default DAR is '4:3' (correspond-
	  ing  to  a standard TV screen); another useful value is '16:9' (corre-
	  sponding to widescreen TV).

     -C chroma
	  Set  output  chroma  (default:  '420jpeg').	 Currently,   '420jpeg',
	  '420mpeg2', '420paldv', '422' are available.

     -x   Exchange  fields.  Useful if the field order was reversed during edit-
	  ing.
