fieldorder: Transform the field order of the input video.
fifo: Buffer input images and send them when they are requested.
format: Convert the input video to one of the specified pixel formats.
fps: Convert the video to specified constant framerate by duplicating or dropping frames as necessary.

gradfun: Fix the banding artifacts that are sometimes introduced into nearly flat regions by truncation to 8bit color depth.
hflip: Flip the input video horizontally.
histeq: This filter applies a global color histogram equalization on a per-frame basis.
histogram: Compute and draw a color distribution histogram for the input video.
hqdn3d: High precision/quality 3d denoise filter.
hue: Modify the hue and/or the saturation of the input.
idet: Detect video interlacing type.
il: Deinterleave or interleave fields.
kerndeint: Deinterlace input video by applying Donald Graft’s adaptive kernel deinterling.
lut: Compute a look-up table for binding each pixel component input value to an output value, and apply it to input video.
lutrgb: Compute a look-up table for binding each pixel component input value to an output value, and apply it to input video.
