Stream specifiers are used to precisely specify which stream s a given option belongs to. A stream specifier is a string generally appended to the option name and separated from it by a colon.
Therefore, it would select the ac3 codec for the second audio stream. A stream specifier can match several streams, so that the option is applied to all of them. An empty stream specifier matches all streams. For example, -codec copy or -codec: copy would copy all the streams without reencoding. Matches the stream with this index. Stream numbering is based on the order of the streams as detected by libavformat except when a program ID is also specified.
In this case it is based on the ordering of the streams in the program. Otherwise, it matches all streams of the specified type. Matches streams with the metadata tag key having the specified value. If value is not given, matches streams that contain the given tag with any value. Matches streams with usable configuration, the codec must be defined and the essential information such as video dimension or audio sample rate must be present.
Show help. An optional parameter may be specified to print help about a specific item. If no argument is specified, only basic non advanced tool options are shown. Print complete list of options, including shared and private options for encoders, decoders, demuxers, muxers, filters, etc.
Use the -decoders option to get a list of all decoders. Use the -encoders option to get a list of all encoders. Use the -formats option to get a list of all demuxers and muxers. Use the -formats option to get a list of all muxers and demuxers. Use the -filters option to get a list of all filters. Use the -bsfs option to get a list of all bitstream filters. Use the -protocols option to get a list of all protocols. Show autodetected sources of the input device.
Some devices may provide system-dependent source names that cannot be autodetected. The returned list cannot be assumed to be always complete. Show autodetected sinks of the output device. Some devices may provide system-dependent sink names that cannot be autodetected.
Indicates that repeated log output should not be compressed to the first line and the "Last message repeated n times" line will be omitted. Indicates that log output should add a [level] prefix to each message line. This can be used as an alternative to log coloring, e. Only show fatal errors which could lead the process to crash, such as an assertion failure.
This is not currently used for anything. Show all warnings and errors. Any message related to possibly incorrect or unexpected events will be shown. Show informative messages during processing. This is in addition to warnings and errors. This is the default value. For example to enable repeated log output, add the level prefix, and set loglevel to verbose :.
Another example that enables repeated log output without affecting current state of level prefix flag or loglevel :. By default the program logs to stderr. If coloring is supported by the terminal, colors are used to mark errors and warnings. This file can be useful for bug reports. It also implies -loglevel debug. For example, to output a report to a file named ffreport. All FFmpeg tools will normally show a copyright notice, build options and library versions.
This option can be used to suppress printing this information. Allows setting and clearing cpu flags. This option is intended for testing. Override detection of CPU count. Exercise extreme caution when using this option. These options are provided directly by the libavformat, libavdevice and libavcodec libraries. To see the list of available AVOptions, use the -help option. They are separated into two categories:. These options can be set for any container, codec or device. These options are specific to the given container, device or codec.
For example to write an ID3v2. In the above example, a multichannel audio stream is mapped twice for output. The first instance is encoded with codec ac3 and bitrate k. The second instance is downmixed to 2 channels and encoded with codec aac. A bitrate of k is specified for it using absolute index of the output stream. Set frame size WxH or abbreviation , needed for videos which do not contain a header with the frame size like raw YUV.
Seek to pos. Note that in most formats it is not possible to seek exactly, so ffplay will seek to the nearest seek point to pos. Set the startup volume. Negative values are treated as 0, values above are treated as Default value is "video", if video is not present or cannot be played "rdft" is automatically selected.
You can interactively cycle through the available show modes by pressing the key w. Create the filtergraph specified by filtergraph and use it to filter the video stream.
In the filtergraph, the input is associated to the label in , and the output to the label out. See the ffmpeg-filters manual for more information about the filtergraph syntax. You can specify this parameter multiple times and cycle through the specified filtergraphs along with the show modes by pressing the key w. Use the option "-filters" to show all the available filters including sources and sinks.
Set pixel format. It is shown by default, unless the log level is lower than info. Its display can be forced by manually specifying this option. To disable it, you need to specify -nostats. Default is audio. The master clock is used to control audio-video synchronization. Most media players use audio as master clock, but in some cases streaming or high quality broadcast it is necessary to change that.
This option is mainly used for debugging purposes. Select the desired audio stream using the given stream specifier. The stream specifiers are described in the Stream specifiers chapter. If this option is not specified, the "best" audio stream is selected in the program of the already selected video stream.
Select the desired video stream using the given stream specifier. If this option is not specified, the "best" video stream is selected.
Select the desired subtitle stream using the given stream specifier. If this option is not specified, the "best" subtitle stream is selected in the program of the already selected video or audio stream. Automatically rotate the video according to file metadata. Enabled by default, use -noautorotate to disable it. Drop video frames if video is out of sync. Enabled by default if the master clock is not set to video.
Use this option to enable frame dropping for all master clock sources, use -noframedrop to disable it. Do not limit the input buffer size, read as much data as possible from the input as soon as possible.
Enabled by default for realtime streams, where data may be dropped if not read in time. Use this option to enable infinite buffers for all inputs, use -noinfbuf to disable it. Defines how many threads are used to process a filter pipeline.
Each pipeline will produce a thread pool with this many threads available for parallel processing. The default is 0 which means that the thread count will be determined by the number of available CPUs. FFmpeg adopts the following quoting and escaping mechanism, unless explicitly specified.
The following rules are applied:. Note that you may need to add a second level of escaping when using the command line or a script, which depends on the syntax of the adopted shell language. Time is local time unless Z is appended, in which case it is interpreted as UTC. If the year-month-day part is not specified it takes the current year-month-day. HH expresses the number of hours, MM the number of minutes for a maximum of 2 digits, and SS the number of seconds for a maximum of 2 digits.
The m at the end expresses decimal value for SS. S expresses the number of seconds, with the optional decimal part m. Specify the size of the sourced video, it may be a string of the form width x height , or the name of a size abbreviation. Specify the frame rate of a video, expressed as the number of frames generated per second. A ratio can be expressed as an expression, or in the form numerator : denominator.
It can be the name of a color as defined below case insensitive match or a [0x ]RRGGBB[AA] sequence, possibly followed by and a string representing the alpha component. The alpha component may be a string composed by "0x" followed by an hexadecimal number or a decimal number between 0. A channel layout specifies the spatial disposition of the channels in a multi-channel audio stream. To specify a channel layout, FFmpeg makes use of a special syntax. Each term can be:.
Before libavutil version 53 the trailing character "c" to specify a number of channels was optional, but now it is required, while a channel layout mask can also be specified as a decimal number if and only if not followed by "c" or "C".
Two expressions expr1 and expr2 can be combined to form another expression " expr1 ; expr2 ". Return 1 if x is greater than or equal to min and lesser than or equal to max , 0 otherwise.
The results of the evaluation of x and y are converted to integers before executing the bitwise operation. Note that both the conversion to integer and the conversion back to floating point can lose precision. Round the value of expression expr upwards to the nearest integer.
For example, "ceil 1. Round the value of expression expr downwards to the nearest integer. For example, "floor Return the greatest common divisor of x and y. If both x and y are 0 or either or both are less than zero then behavior is undefined. Evaluate x , and if the result is non-zero return the result of the evaluation of y , return 0 otherwise.
Evaluate x , and if the result is non-zero return the evaluation result of y , otherwise the evaluation result of z. Evaluate x , and if the result is zero return the result of the evaluation of y , return 0 otherwise. Evaluate x , and if the result is zero return the evaluation result of y , otherwise the evaluation result of z.
Load the value of the internal variable with number var , which was previously stored with st var , expr. The function returns the loaded value. Print the value of expression t with loglevel l. If l is not specified then a default log level is used. Returns the value of the expression printed. Return a pseudo random value between 0. Find an input value for which the function represented by expr with argument ld 0 is 0 in the interval When the expression evaluates to 0 then the corresponding input value will be returned.
Round the value of expression expr to the nearest integer. For example, "round 1. Compute the square root of expr. Store the value of the expression expr in an internal variable. The function returns the value stored in the internal variable. Note, Variables are currently not shared between expressions. Evaluate a Taylor series at x , given an expression representing the ld id -th derivative of a function at 0.
If id is not specified then 0 is assumed. Note, when you have the derivatives at y instead of 0, taylor expr, x-y can be used. Round the value of expression expr towards zero to the nearest integer. For example, "trunc Evaluate expression expr while the expression cond is non-zero, and returns the value of the last expr evaluation, or NAN if cond was always false. Assuming that an expression is considered "true" if it has a non-zero value, note that:. In your C code, you can extend the list of unary and binary functions, and define recognized constants, so that they are available for your expressions.
The evaluator also recognizes the International System unit prefixes. The list of available International System prefixes follows, with indication of the corresponding powers of 10 and of 2.
In addition each codec may support so-called private options, which are specific for a given codec. Sometimes, a global option may only affect a specific kind of codec, and may be nonsensical or ignored by another, so you need to be aware of the meaning of the specified options. Also some options are meant only for decoding or encoding.
In 1-pass mode, bitrate tolerance specifies how far ratecontrol is willing to deviate from the target average bitrate value. Lowering tolerance too much has an adverse effect on quality.
Only write platform-, build- and time-independent data. This ensures that file and data checksums are reproducible and match between platforms.
Its primary use is for regression testing. It is the fundamental unit of time in seconds in terms of which frame timestamps are represented. Set cutoff bandwidth. Supported only by selected encoders, see their respective documentation sections. It is set by some decoders to indicate constant frame size.
Set video quantizer scale compression VBR. It is used as a constant in the ratecontrol equation. Must be an integer between -1 and If a value of -1 is used, it will choose an automatic value depending on the encoder. Note: experimental decoders can pose a security risk, do not use this for decoding untrusted input.
This is useful if you want to analyze the content of a video and thus want everything to be decoded no matter what. This option will not result in a video that is pleasing to watch in case of errors. Most useful in setting up a CBR encode. It is of little use elsewise. At present, those are H. Supported at present by AV1 decoders. Set the number of threads to be used, in case the selected codec implementation supports multi-threading.
Set encoder codec profile. Encoder specific profiles are documented in the relevant encoder documentation. Possible values:. Set to 1 to disable processing alpha transparency. Default is 0. Separator used to separate the fields printed on the command line about the Stream parameters. For example, to separate the fields with newlines and indentation:.
Maximum number of pixels per image. This value can be used to avoid out of memory failures due to large images. Enable cropping if cropping parameters are multiples of the required alignment for the left and top parameters. If the alignment is not met the cropping will be partially applied to maintain alignment.
Default is 1 enabled. When you configure your FFmpeg build, all the supported native decoders are enabled by default. Decoders requiring an external library must be enabled manually via the corresponding --enable-lib option.
You can list all available decoders using the configure option --list-decoders. Requires the presence of the libdav1d headers and library during configuration. You need to explicitly configure the build with --enable-libdav1d. Set amount of frame threads to use during decoding. The default value is 0 autodetect. Use the global option threads instead. Set amount of tile threads to use during decoding.
Apply film grain to the decoded video if present in the bitstream. Defaults to the internal default of the library. This option is deprecated and will be removed in the future. Select an operating point of a scalable AV1 bitstream 0 - Requires the presence of the libuavs3d headers and library during configuration. You need to explicitly configure the build with --enable-libuavs3d.
Dynamic Range Scale Factor. The factor to apply to dynamic range values from the AC-3 stream. This factor is applied exponentially. The default value is 1. There are 3 notable scale factor ranges:. DRC enabled. Applies a fraction of the stream DRC value. Audio reproduction is between full range and full compression.
Loud sounds are fully compressed. Soft sounds are enhanced. The lavc FLAC encoder used to produce buggy streams with high lpc values like the default value. This decoder generates wave patterns according to predefined sequences. Its use is purely internal and the format of the data it accepts is not publicly documented. Requires the presence of the libcelt headers and library during configuration.
You need to explicitly configure the build with --enable-libcelt. Requires the presence of the libgsm headers and library during configuration. You need to explicitly configure the build with --enable-libgsm.
Requires the presence of the libilbc headers and library during configuration. You need to explicitly configure the build with --enable-libilbc. Using it requires the presence of the libopencore-amrnb headers and library during configuration. You need to explicitly configure the build with --enable-libopencore-amrnb.
Using it requires the presence of the libopencore-amrwb headers and library during configuration. You need to explicitly configure the build with --enable-libopencore-amrwb. Requires the presence of the libopus headers and library during configuration. You need to explicitly configure the build with --enable-libopus. Sets the base path for the libaribb24 library. This is utilized for reading of configuration files for custom unicode conversions , and for dumping of non-text symbols as images under that location.
This codec decodes the bitmap subtitles used in DVDs; the same subtitles can also be found in VobSub file pairs and in some Matroska files. Specify the global palette used by the bitmaps. When stored in VobSub, the palette is normally specified in the index file; in Matroska, the palette is stored in the codec extra-data in the same format as in VobSub.
The format for this option is a string containing 16 bits hexadecimal numbers without 0x prefix separated by commas, for example 0d00ee, eed, , eaeaea, 0ce60b, ec14ed, ebff0b, 0da, 7b7b7b, d1d1d1, 7b2a0e, 0dc, 0fb, cf0dec, cfa80c, 7cb.
Only decode subtitle entries marked as forced. Some titles have forced and non-forced subtitles in the same track. Setting this flag to 1 will only keep the forced subtitles. Default value is 0. Requires the presence of the libzvbi headers and library during configuration. You need to explicitly configure the build with --enable-libzvbi. List of teletext page numbers to decode. Pages that do not match the specified list are dropped.
Set default character set used for decoding, a value between 0 and 87 see ETS , Section 15, Table Default value is -1, which does not override the libzvbi default. This option is needed for some legacy level 1. The default format, you should use this for teletext pages, because certain graphics and colors cannot be expressed in simple text or even ASS.
Guided flag can be set or not, depends on the actual implementation. This flag is intended for temporary system tests and should not be used for stable implementations. System is in a non-normal flight mode. It lost control over parts or over the whole airframe. It is in mayday and going down. Components should attempt to process messages with this component ID and forward to components on any other interfaces.
System flight controller component "autopilot". Only one autopilot is expected in a particular system. Cross correlation of the noise gives their time and phase differences so that it can be corrected. Currently the signal is received and processed in short blocks with each block starting with a burst of calibration noise. As I understand it the switch chips are sa that "look" for dongle i2c traffic.
There are controlled by two RC delay circuits so that every time you change frequency causing i2c traffic it disconnects antennas, waits for some time, feeds a pulse just one edge from the logic chip into all dongles, waits a bit more and connects the antennas back.
You can see the evolution of his setup from this earlier prototype to this later prototype and finally the version used in his direction finder. Every time you tune any two or more dongles to a new frequency there will be a tiny difference in the frequency each actually tuned to.
The offset must corrected before trying to correlate them. If you don't it'll look like there's a constantly varying phase shift. Also don't forget to let the dongles warm up to equilibrium otherwise this additional temperature related frequency shift will cause changes even larger than relative tuning offset and you'll get the "random" phase shift again. As of Piotr Krysik's " Multi-RTL " github has made maintaining coherence of multiple dongles accessible even to the amateur.
His GNU Radio block handles all the complex details of keeping multiple rtlsdr coherent even when they're tuned to different frequencies and over re-tunes. It requires no external circuitry.
You just have to distribute the clock signal with cable. On the clock coherencey side Michele Bavaro's has explored, tweaked, and replaced, librtlsdr's pll setting code, intermediate frequency, and PLL dithering settings, such that the math, and results, work out cleaner. Using this modified driver he was able to minimize frequency setting errors and improve his GPS carrier following code. Without dithering you can only tune to increments of With dithering, you can tune to aproximately anything.
In the absence of any useful information about the RTLU clock here's some information about the RT's clock system. Crystal parallel capacitors are recommended when a default crystal frequency of 16 MHz is implemented. Please contact Rafael Micro application engineering for crystal parallel capacitors using other crystal frequencies. For cost sensitive project, the RT can share crystal with backend demodulators or baseband ICs to reduce component count. The recommended reference design for crystal loading capacitors and share crystal is shown as below.
When you see something weird, like commercial FM broadcasts at 27 MHz, what you are seeing incomplete filtering of mixing products.
It's the harmonics of the square wave driving the mixers combined with insufficient rf filtering to suppress the response. Sometimes local signals can be powerful ie, pagers or close enough to make the preamplifier behave non-linearly resulting in intermodulation.
For this kind of RFI turning down the gain helps. The tuners all have a certain amount of intrinsic noise too. The But not everything is a ghost from hardware design problems. Depending on your computer setup and local electronics there could be a lot of "real noise"; LCD monitors are a common culprit for VHF noise spikes distributed across wide ranges. It is best to shield and put ferrites on everything if you can. To solve the commercial FM mixing problems an FM trap can be used.
Commercial ones work fine typically. But for non-commercial FM RFI like emergency services and pagers custom filters must be made or ordered. Adam-9A4QV has a detailed write-up on making FM trap with a very high upper passband all the way to 1.
Like Adam's it has the unique feature of not also wiping out harmonics of the FM band: fm-notch. For more information on this general type of coaxial cable notch filter check out Ed Loranger's write up on VHF Notch filters photo. Acinonyx describes one way to doing this using a single strip of aluminum tape combined with a spring to connect it to the dongle ground. Akos Czermann at the sdrformariners blog made a somewhat confusing but definitely empirical comparison of noise levels compared to different hardware mods like disconnecting the USB ground from the rtlsdr ground.
Quite a few people have had success with that and scotch tape around the USB connector works to test it. Some others bond the enclosure to both the antenna and the USB shield and this works reliably and well.
Martin from g8jnj. Additional noise comes from the switching power supply in the RTLU that runs at 1. This drops the supplied 3. In the example linked above ttrftech uses power form the far side of the board but the eeprom's power rail would also work. This decreases spurs in HF significantly. Around this USB cable I clip on 5 or 6 ferrites at each end.
I've also written up a seperate, longer, page on the challenges and solutions when implementing broadband antenna. When I want to do some scanning that takes advantage of the tuner's very wide ranges I use five types of antenna: discone, spiral, dual planar disks, vivaldi tapered slot , and horns TEM and pyramidal.
Discone, dual planar disk , and archimedian spiral antenna can omnidirectionally cover almost the full range of the E tuner but things get a bit too large to go all the way to the 24 Mhz of the RT. You can refer to the seperate spiral antenna page for construction and technical details. To build my discone I followed Roklobsta's D.
They each have a javascript zoomable interface to load small tiles progressively. An example. But with a band specific helix in a cone reflector helicone many more satellites can be picked up. No LNA was used. When using such broadband antenna, or even a band specific helix, it is possible to pick up powerful out of band signals due to overloading or incomplete mixer filtering. It's important to identify any extraordinarily powerful transmitters nearbye and filter them out.
In my case I have a 50w transmitter at MHz across the street always going full power. I bought a custom tuned 3 cavity notch filter from PAR Electronics. Usually the spectra are much cleaner when using directional and resonant antenna instead of wideband omnidirectionals. But many directional antenna like helix and log periodic dipoles have very large out of band sidebands on low frequencies not in the designed range.
You don't need GNU Radio to use the rtlsdr dongles in sdr mode, but there are many useful apps that depend on it.
It automates grabbing the latest of everything from git and compiling. It will also uninstall any packages providing GNU Radio already installed first. I had no problems using Ubuntu These days pybombs is slowly taking over for build-gnuradio but for now this works best. If you're thinking about trying this in a virtual machine: don't. If you do get it partially working it'll still suck.
Install 3. Most gnu radio projects have been ported to it as default. Only a few old things will require 3. An re install looks like this. It might be useful to save the log output for future reference. Then test it. Newer versions, and RT tuners will output slightly different text. When updating you can just repeat the install instructions which is simple but long. The advantage to repeating the full process is mainly if there are major changes in the gr-osmosdr as well as rtl-sdr.
It'll do things like ldconfig for you. If you don't have the patience for a full recompile and there haven't been major gnu radio or gr-osmosdr changes it's much faster just to recompile rtl-sdr by itself.
The instructions to do so are at the osmosdr page. It'll only take a few minutes even on slow machines. Once you have the latest git clone it is like most cmake projects:.
This is visualized with keenerd's heatmap. Because the entire bandwidth is summed and saved as one value the the data rate to disk, and spectrogram dimensions are much lower than FFT mode. Example gnuplot visualization , annotated , and the gnuplot format , and colour palettes used to generate them. If you do a large number of frequency hops, hundreds then the time adds up. On my two computers the RT tuner dongles average about 55 milliseconds per retune and sample cycle. I sometimes have dongles that'll fail to lock pll and go into a loop.
The -e parameter sets a time limit for a run. Combining this time limit with a bash while loop results in pretty low downtime with resiliance to rtlsdr and USB failures. To combine the results from multiple dongles just cat the files together. But on gnuplots end each new.
Additionally you need to set the output spectrogram filename and a pixel width. I find for Mhz 1 MHz that approximately px per MB of file size is required to cover all gaps. If you used build-gnuradio it'll tell you what this is at the end of the install. When setting the sample rate it is rounded-down to a multiple of Ksps so the decimation math works out.
If you have overruns like "OOOOoo Which means that your machine isn't keeping up with the data stream.
Sometimes buffering helps, but only if your machine is right on the edge of working properly. If it really can't, on average "keep up", no amount of buffering will help. If you have overruns like "aUaUaUaUa" or just "aaa" then the audio system is asking for samples at a higher rate than the DSP flow can provide 44vs48Khz, etc. Use "aplay -l" to get a list of the devices on your system. The hw:X,Y comes from this mapping of your hardware -- in this case, X is the card number, while Y is the device number.
Or you can use "pulse" for pulseaudio. Try specifying,. As of August 9th Gqrx 2. This upgraded version can now be installed as binaries with all of it's dependencies pre-packaged on both Ubuntu linux a custom PPA , no That includes all the GNU Radio stuff. So this is an all-in-one alternative to building GNU Radio from source. I think this person's guide is better than mine. As of the changes to Mono 4 allow SDR to be viable to run on linux again.
Make sure you have the latest Mono 4 though. This still requires soft linking in your system rtlsdr and portaudio library to the sdrshape.
Just make sure you link your actual system rtlsdr and libportaudio, not my example path above. Roklobsta's rtlsdr. As of July 23, there was a major update to gr-air-modes which now includes a nice google maps overlay and works on gnu radio 3. Antirezs' ADS-B program is really slick. It does not depend on GNU Radio, has a number of interactive modes, and it even optionally runs it's own HTTP server with googlemaps overlay of discovered planes; no virtualradar needed.
It uses very little CPU and has impressive error correction. This is your best choice to play with plane tracking quickly. That is a significant part of the performance improvement. As of this feature was added to the main librtlsdr driver as well. With the addition of a GPS receiver, this program can be used to obtain basic cellular coverage maps. The author had only tested it on Ubuntu Scanner is very useful to get your dongle's frequency offset reliably and Tracker is very pretty.
Remember to let your rtlsdr dongle warm up to equilibrium temperature before checking frequency error. The code was written by Joshua Lackey and made rtlsdr accessible by stevem. There is also a windows build made by Hoernchen. Let your rtlsdr dongle warm up to equilibrium temperature before running the test.
When you're using this to find your frequency error it's important to use the -e option to specify intial error. I compiled some install process and example usage notes. I wrote these scripts do automatic generation of 1D spectrograms, per frequency time series plots of total power, and 2D spectral maps over arbitrary frequency ranges using multiple dongles at once.
There is almost no DSP done and it is very simple but the wideband spectrograms and time series can be informative and fun regardless. It uses gnuplot for graphics generation. It has a graphical stripchart display, and a standard FFT display. It also records both total-power and spectral data using an external C program that records the data along with timestamps based on the Local Mean Sidereal Time. This is another incredible tool by patchvonbraun.
It does all the heavy lifting of integration over time and signal processing to get an accurate measurement of absolute power over a range. With it he has managed to pick out the transit of the milky way at the neutral hydrogen frequency using rtlsdr sticks and a pair of yagi antenna.
Don't forget to set the --devid to rtl otherwise gnuradio won't find the gr-osmosdr source and it'll substitute a gaussian noise source. Ear to Ear Oak made this wideband total power scanner that generates 1D spectrum plots over any tunable ranges with arbitrary integration times. It can update a matplotlib python plot GUI in real time and has the ability to output cvs values as well as an internal format.
It's very useful for finding what's broadcasting in your area quickly. Using it's csv output and gnuplot I visualized a scan from MHz. If you want to use the data in gnuplot you have to sort it and make sure the header is commented out. You can comment out the header manually but I instead prefixed a hash to the log writing behavior at line ,. Automatic generation of and html gallery creation of wideband spectrograms using multiple rtlsdr dongles to divide up the spectrum.
It also produces narrow band total charts, and other visualizations. These scripts cause the rtlsdr dongle to jump from frequency to frequency as fast as they can and take very rough total power measurement.
This data is stored in human readable logs and later turned into wideband spectrograms by calling gnuplot. In order to further increase coverage of any given spectrum range multiple instances of the script can be run at once in the same directory adding to the same logs.
