FLV File Format Overview Flash Video(简称FLV),是一种流行的网络格式。目前国内外大部分视频分享网站都是采用的这种格式. File Structure 从整个文件上开看,FLV是由The FLV header 和 The FLV File Body 组成. 1.The FLV header Field Type Comment Signature UI8 Signature byte always F (0x46) Signature UI8 Signature byte always L (0x4C) Signature UI8 Signature byte always V (0x56) Version UI8 File version (for example, 0x01 for FLV version 1) TypeFlagsReserved UB [5] Shall be 0 TypeFlagsAudio UB [1] 1 = Audio tags are present TypeFlagsReserved UB [1] Shall be 0 TypeFlagsVideo UB [1] 1 = Video tags are present DataOffset UI32 The length of this header in bytes ? Signature: FLV 文件的前3个字节为固定的‘F’‘L’‘V’,用来标识这个文件是flv格式的.在做格式探测的时候， 如果发现前3个字节为“FLV”，就认为它是flv文件. Version: 第4个字节表示flv版本号. Flags: 第5个字节中的第0位和第2位,分别表示 video 与 audio 存在的情况.(1表示存在,0表示不存在) DataOffset?: 最后4个字节表示FLV header 长度. 2.The FLV File Body Field Type Comment PreviousTagSize0 UI32 Always 0 Tag1 FLVTAG First tag PreviousTagSize1 UI32 Size of previous tag, including its header, in bytes. For FLV version1, this value is 11 plus the DataSize of the previous tag. Tag2 FLVTAG Second tag ... ... ... PreviousTagSizeN-1 UI32 Size of second-to-last tag, including its header, in bytes. TagN FLVTAG Last tag PreviousTagSizeN UI32 Size of last tag, including its header, in bytes ? FLV header之后,就是 FLV File Body. FLV File Body是由一连串的back-pointers + tags构成.back-pointers就是4个字节数据,表示前一个tag的size. ? FLV Tag Definition FLV文件中的数据都是由一个个TAG组成,TAG里面的数据可能是video、audio、scripts. 下表是TAG的结构: 1.FLVTAG Field Type Comment Reserved UB [2] Reserved for FMS, should be 0 Filter UB [1] Indicates if packets are filtered.0 = No pre-processing required.1 = Pre-processing (such as decryption) of the packet isrequired before it can be rendered.Shall be 0 in unencrypted files, and 1 for encrypted tags.See Annex F. FLV Encryption for the use of filters. TagType UB [5] Type of contents in this tag. The following types aredefined:8 = audio9 = video18 = script data DataSize UI24 Length of the mes
