v18 Supported Video/Audio Values for Codec
#1
Hello,

i am looking for a list of supported string values for Video & Audio Codec

The exampels in the docs works: https://codedocs.xyz/AlwinEsch/kodi/grou...fec9111cdc

However i dont know what value to use for "dolby digital" for example.

Rgds
PX80


edit: so i figured the following (trial and error )

Video Codecs
mp4
h264
h265
mkv
hevc

Audio Codec
aac
ac3
dts

Thanks. I wonder if the Skin ( Helper) can identify the tags listed in this webpage. But i think i can work with the tags in the list

Thanks. What i am missing on the list is the Audio Format: Dolby Digital and DD+  ( i believe AC3 encodes to DD )

For DD+ i tried
codec:aacplus & codec:aac+

None of them works.



edit: its codec:eac3

there's no 'complete' list of possible audiocodec/videocodec values...
afaik they are provided by ffmpeg and there are a whole lot of them.

the most common ones can usually be found in many skins:
