  --interval INTERVAL   calculation interval in seconds for statistics metrics, such as bitrate, fps, etc. (default: 1.0)
  --log LOGLEVEL        log level (default: None)

• Draw your interested subplots only

$ plot-av -i test.mp4 --plots dts,pts

• Draw video or audio only

# disable video
$ plot-av -i test.mp4 -vn

# disable audio
$ plot-av -i test.mp4 -an

• Manually select streams from mutiple inputs

$ plot-av -i test1.mp4 -i test2.mp4 -map 0:v:0 -map 1:a:0
