Set all options to their defaults.

Parameters

  opt | Video options

## gavl_video_options_create()

GAVL_PUBLIC gavl_video_options_t * gavl_video_options_create | ( |  | ) |

Create an options container.

Returns
  Newly allocated udio options with default values

Use this to store options, which will apply for more than one converter instance. Applying the options will be done by gavl_*_get_options() followed by gavl_video_options_copy().

## gavl_video_options_copy()

GAVL_PUBLIC void gavl_video_options_copy | ( | gavl_video_options_t * | dst,
|  | const gavl_video_options_t * | src
| ) |  |

Copy video options.

Parameters

  dst | Destination
  src | Source

## gavl_video_options_destroy()

GAVL_PUBLIC void gavl_video_options_destroy | ( | gavl_video_options_t * | opt | ) |

Destroy video options.

Parameters

  opt | Video options

## gavl_video_options_set_rectangles()

Set source and destination rectangles.

Parameters

  opt | Video options
  src_rect | Rectangular area in the source frame or NULL

Set the source and destination rectangles the converter or scaler will operate on. If you don't call this function, the rectangles will be set to the full image dimensions of the source and destination formats respectively. If one rectangle is NULL, BOTH rectangles will be cleared as if you never called this function. See Rectangles for convenience functions, which calculate the proper rectangles in some typical playback or transcoding situations.
