Bif_creator

Name	Type	Description
source_stream_selection	enum                           all highest middle first	Selects the video stream that will be used for BIF creation.
timestamp_multiplier	integer	An option passed to biftool when image sequence is used as a source.
base_name	string	This describes the target file name. Placeholders such as {source_basename} for source file name are supported. default: {source_basename}
location	object	The target output location for the BIF stream.
existing_files	enum                           delete_and_replace replace replace_late rename_new rename_org fail	The desired behavior when a target file already exists. "replace": will delete the original file and write the new one. "rename_new": gives the new file a different auto-generated name. "rename_org": renames the original file. Note that renaming the original file may not be possible depending on the target location. "delete_and_replace": attempts to immediately delete the original file. This will allow for fast failure in the case of inadequate permissions. "replace_late": does not attempt to delete the original -- simply executes a write. default: fail
