-metadata title="The Title" -metadata author="Foo" -metadata year="1999" "ffmpeg -h" is generally more up to date than "man ffmpeg". ** Changed in: ffmpeg (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- ffmpeg: unrecognized option '-album' https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/501729 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
