+The @file{graph2dot} program included in the FFmpeg @file{tools} |
+directory can be used to parse a filter graph description and issue a |
+corresponding textual representation in the dot language. |
+ |
+Invoke the command: |
+@example |
+graph2dot -h |
+@end example |
+ |
+to see how to use @file{graph2dot}. |
+ |
+You can then pass the dot description to the @file{dot} program (from |
+the graphviz suite of programs) and obtain a graphical representation |
+of the filter graph. |
+ |
+For example the sequence of commands: |
+@example |
+echo @var{GRAPH_DESCRIPTION} | \ |
+tools/graph2dot -o graph.tmp && \ |
+dot -Tpng graph.tmp -o graph.png && \ |
+display graph.png |
+@end example |
+ |
+can be used to create and display an image representing the graph |
+described by the @var{GRAPH_DESCRIPTION} string. |
