Configuration Options #24

Open neyuru opened 4 years ago

Sorry in advance because: 1) This is not an issue with this software and, 2) the author of this repository is not the manufacturer of the devices supported and is not responsible for technical support. If anyone knows a place to better inform myself, please let me know.

My issue is related with -more or less- understanding the configuration options. Some of them are self explanatory. Others are understandable, others are easily researched in the web but some others are difficult to understand for a noob in video production and/or aren't well documented in the web.

This is my attempt at requesting information to advanced users how often deal with this daily or as a living. If you could please explain to me what do these configuration options do or are intended to do or what they mean:

1) codec 9 "PASSTHROUGH" (option -d) 2) audiobitrate 29 "MAX" (option -R) 3) transport stream bitrate. More specifically, what is the difference between this and videobitrate? (option -t) 4) videocodingmode 2,3 "MBAFF, PAFF" (option -X) 5) bframes (option -B) 6) videolatency (option -A). More specifically, this doesn't appear to affect the latency between input source and the result viewed from the screen.

Thanks!
