Hi,

I've been attempting to use the 'feedback' video filter, which is documented here: https://ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg-filters.html#feedback

Unfortunately I get the following error message :

"[AVFilterGraph @ 0x55e551121ec0] No such filter: 'feedback'
Error initializing complex filters.
Invalid argument
pipe:: Invalid data found when processing input"

I updated my ffmpeg installation, from FFmpeg 4.4.2 "Rao", to FFmpeg 5.0.1 "Lorentz", as I gathered from elsewhere that 'feedback' was a new filter, but I still got the same error message.

Is 'feedback' actually present in the 5.0.1 release?  I believe I have the correct libavfilter library enabled/installed.

I've found reference to the filter in patchwork.ffmpeg.org ( https://patchwork.ffmpeg.org/project/ffmpeg/patch/[email protected]/ ), but do I really have to go to the effort of downloading the source code, adding the patch, and building ffmpeg from scratch? If so, I suggest that the inclusion of the filter in the online documentation is premature, and only filters present in full ffmpeg releases should be listed.

Would it not at least help to have a note in the documentation of each filter stating the release version that the filter was available from?

The header I get from running 'ffmpeg -version' is below :
