Aphasemeter

Audio Multiple outputs Transform

Convert input audio to phase meter video output.

FFmpeg filter: aphasemeter — the official reference.

Add it to a graph. The explicit form works for every filter — bind it to its input and read the result from outputs():

$outputs = $audio->addFilter(new Aphasemeter(…))->outputs(); // one stream per output pad

Shorthand. Not available — apply() returns a single stream, and Aphasemeter has multiple outputs. Use addFilter() + outputs() above.

TODO — when this filter shines: what it’s the right tool for, what to reach for instead when it isn’t, and how it composes with neighbouring filters.

TODO — prose: how the filter actually works and what its key parameters mean (the explanation FFmpeg’s terse option help omits).

TODO — runnable PHP, with the equivalent ffmpeg CLI alongside.

sizestring800x400—set video size
rcint20–255set red contrast
gcint70–255set green contrast
bcint10–255set blue contrast
mpcstringnone—set median phase color
videobooltrue—set video output
phasingboolfalse—set mono and out-of-phase detection output
tolerancefloat00–1set phase tolerance for mono detection
anglefloat17090–180set angle threshold for out-of-phase detection
durationint2000000≥ 0set minimum mono or out-of-phase duration in seconds

FFmpeg also names these options (use the parameter shown above): r → rate, s → size, t → tolerance, a → angle, d → duration.
