FFmpeg's bug/feature request tracker manual
|
|
=================================================
|
|
|
|
Overview:
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
FFmpeg uses Trac for tracking issues, new issues and changes to
|
|
existing issues can be done through a web interface.
|
|
|
|
Issues can be different kinds of things we want to keep track of
|
|
but that do not belong into the source tree itself. This includes
|
|
bug reports, feature requests and license violations. We
|
|
might add more items to this list in the future, so feel free to
|
|
propose a new `type of issue' on the ffmpeg-devel mailing list if
|
|
you feel it is worth tracking.
|
|
|
|
It is possible to subscribe to individual issues by adding yourself to the
|
|
Cc list or to subscribe to the ffmpeg-trac mailing list which receives
|
|
a mail for every change to every issue.
|
|
(the above does all work already after light testing)
|
|
|
|
The subscription URL for the ffmpeg-trac list is:
|
|
https://lists.ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-trac
|
|
The URL of the webinterface of the tracker is:
|
|
https://trac.ffmpeg.org
|
|
|
|

Request of support for encoding or decoding of a new codec, container

Request of support for more, less or plain different output or behavior

where the current implementation cannot be considered wrong.

|
Priority:
|
|
---------
|
|
critical
|
|
Bugs about data loss and security issues.
|
|
No feature request can be critical.
|
|
|
|
important
|
|
Bugs which make FFmpeg unusable for a significant number of users.
|
|
Examples here might be completely broken MPEG-4 decoding or a build issue
|
|
on Linux.
|
|
While broken 4xm decoding or a broken OS/2 build would not be important,
|
|
the separation to normal is somewhat fuzzy.
|
|
For feature requests this priority would be used for things many people
|
|
want.
|
|
Regressions also should be marked as important, regressions are bugs that
|
|
don't exist in a past revision or another branch.
|
|
|
|
normal
|
|
Default setting. Use this if the bug does not match the other
|
|
priorities or if you are unsure of what priority to choose.
|
|
|
|
minor
|
|
Bugs about things like spelling errors, "mp2" instead of
|
|
"mp3" being shown and such.
|
|
Feature requests about things few people want or which do not make a big
|
|
difference.
|
|
|
|
wish
|
|
Something that is desirable to have but that there is no urgency at
|
|
all to implement, e.g. something completely cosmetic like a website
|
|
restyle or a personalized doxy template or the FFmpeg logo.
|
|
This priority is not valid for bugs.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Status:
|
|
-------
|
|
new
|
|
initial state
|
|
|
|
open
|
|
intermediate states
|
|
|
|
closed
|
|
final state
|
|
|
|
|
|
Analyzed flag:
|
|
--------------
|
|
Bugs which have been analyzed and where it is understood what causes them
|
|
and which exact chain of events triggers them. This analysis should be
|
|
available as a message in the bug report.
|
|
Note, do not change the status to analyzed without also providing a clear
|
|
and understandable analysis.
|
|
This state implicates that the bug either has been reproduced or that
|
|
reproduction is not needed as the bug is already understood.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Type/Status:
|
|
----------
|
|
*/new
|
|
Initial state of new bugs and feature requests submitted by
|
|
users.
|
|
|
|
*/open
|
|
Issues which have been briefly looked at and which did not look outright
|
|
invalid.
|
|
This implicates that no real more detailed state applies yet. Conversely,
|
|
the more detailed states below implicate that the issue has been briefly
|
|
looked at.
|
|
|
|
*/closed/duplicate
|
|
Bugs or feature requests which are duplicates.
|
|
Note, if you mark something as duplicate, do not forget setting the
|
|
superseder so bug reports are properly linked.
|
|
|
|
*/closed/invalid
|
|
Bugs caused by user errors, random ineligible or otherwise nonsense stuff.
|
|
|
|
*/closed/needs_more_info
|
|
Issues for which some information has been requested by the developers,
|
|
but which has not been provided by anyone within reasonable time.
|
|
|
|
|
|
bug/closed/fixed
|
|
Bugs which have to the best of our knowledge been fixed.
|
|
|
|
bug/closed/wontfix
|
|
Bugs which we will not fix. Possible reasons include legality, high
|
|
complexity for the sake of supporting obscure corner cases, speed loss
|
|
for similarly esoteric purposes, et cetera.
|
|
This also means that we would reject a patch.
|
|
If we are just too lazy to fix a bug then the correct state is open
|
|
and unassigned. Closed means that the case is closed which is not
|
|
the case if we are just waiting for a patch.
|
|
|
|
bug/closed/works_for_me
|
|
Bugs for which sufficient information was provided to reproduce but
|
|
reproduction failed - that is the code seems to work correctly to the
|
|
best of our knowledge.
|
|
|
|
feature_request/closed/fixed
|
|
Feature requests which have been implemented.
|
|
|
|
feature_request/closed/wontfix
|
|
Feature requests which will not be implemented. The reasons here could
|
|
be legal, philosophical or others.
|
|
|
|
Note2, if you provide the requested info do not forget to remove the
|
|
needs_more_info resolution.
