I'm wanting to play strictly audio files with FFplay.
Already when opening files it displays a window with a rolling spectogram.



I'd like to have the same spectogram with an overlay of a timecode in hh:mm:ss.



There is nothing on the man page whatsoever of this.



How can I achieve this?

          This can be done with the showspectrum and drawtext filters.



          enter image description here



          ffplay -f lavfi "amovie=input.mp3,asplit[a][out1];[a]showspectrum=mode=separate:color=intensity:slide=1,drawtext=text='%pts:hms':box=1:boxborderw=5:x=(w-text_w)/2:y=h-(text_h*2):fontsize=16:font=Mono[out0]"


          • Seeking during playback will not be possible.

          • Use a mono font, otherwise the width of the numbers will vary causing movement. The use of the option font=Mono allows you to set the font family, but this requires your ffmpeg to be compiled with --enable-libfribidi. Otherwise, use the fontfile option and provide the full path to the font file.
