Show a line containing various information for each input audio frame. The input audio is not modified.

The shown line contains a sequence of key/value pairs of the form key:value.

The following values are shown in the output:

'n'

The (sequential) number of the input frame, starting from 0.

'pts'

The presentation timestamp of the input frame, in time base units; the time base depends on the filter input pad, and is usually 1/sample_rate.

'pts_time'

The presentation timestamp of the input frame in seconds.

'pos'

position of the frame in the input stream, -1 if this information in unavailable and/or meaningless (for example in case of synthetic audio)

'fmt'

The sample format.

'chlayout'

The channel layout.

'rate'

The sample rate for the audio frame.

'nb_samples'

The number of samples (per channel) in the frame.

'checksum'

The Adler-32 checksum (printed in hexadecimal) of the audio data. For planar audio, the data is treated as if all the planes were concatenated.

'plane_checksums'

A list of Adler-32 checksums for each data plane.
