[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] libavutil/log: Support for logging timestamps in the log

Prakash duggaraju at gmail.com
Fri Feb 17 02:16:04 EET 2023


Moved the timestamp to the front (before loglevel but after the prefix if
present, so the timestamp has the same color as log line based on log
level).  Updated the patch and attached again.

Subject: [PATCH] libavutil/log: Support for logging timestamps in the log.
Add
 'time' flag to the -loglevel option to turn on timestamp logging. Useful
for
 troubleshooting where time is spent from the log files.
