How to display current time with the ffplay.exe?
ffplay -vf "drawtext=text='%{pts\:hms}':box=1:x=(w-tw)/2:y=h-(2*lh)" input.mp4
If your build does not support fontconfig, then you'll have to add the
fontfile
option with the path to the font. See drawtext filter docs for more info.In Windows you may have to first set the
FONTCONFIG_PATH
variable (and/or other related variables).You can add
boxborderw=4
if you want more padding in the box, but you'll need a relatively recent build. See the FFmpeg Download page.
