In addition each codec may support +so-called private options, which are specific for a given codec. + +Sometimes, a global option may only affect a specific kind of codec, +and may be unsensical or ignored by another, so you need to be aware +of the meaning of the specified options. Also some options are +meant only for decoding or encoding. + +Options may be set by specifying -@var{option} @var{value} in the +FFmpeg tools, or by setting the value explicitly in the +@code{AVCodecContext} options or using the @file{libavutil/opt.h} API +for programmatic use. + +The list of supported options follow: + +@table @option +@item b @var{integer} (@emph{encoding,audio,video}) +Set bitrate in bits/s.
