command.inputFormat("lavfi");

Expected results
Observed results
Error: Input format lavfi is not available
Temporary workaround
// TypeScript
const bypass = (command: ffmpeg.FfmpegCommand) => {
const bk = command.availableFormats;
command.availableFormats = (cb: (err: any, data: any) => void) => {
bk.bind(command)((err, data) => {
const lavfi = {
canDemux: true,
canMux: true,
description: "Lavfi",
};
cb(err, { ...data, lavfi });
});
};
}Checklist
- I have read the FAQ
- I tried the same with command line ffmpeg and it works correctly (hint: if the problem also happens this way, this is an ffmpeg problem and you're not reporting it to the right place)
- I have included full stderr/stdout output from ffmpeg
