The default document-root (if unspecified) is the system root: / or C:\.
If both syslog and logfile are given that last specified option will be used.
--verbose and
--quiet are additive. The default is to print
warnings and above only. Available log-levels are 'mute', 'critical, 'error',
'warning' and 'info'.
The
--features option allows to enable and disable http-handlers /seek
and /index as well as tweak related behaviour. The 'flatindex' option concerns
/index&flatindex=1 which recursively indexes all video file. It is
disabled by defaults since a recursive search of the default docroot / can
takes a very long time. When requesting png or jpeg images harvid decodes a
raw RGB frame and then encodes it again. If 'keepraw' feature is enabled, both
the raw RGB and encoded image are kept in cache. The default is to invaldate
the RGB frame after encoding the image.
