Description

The fffmpeg command accepts a '-threads' option, but there does not appear to be any description of the option semantics in ffmpeg.1 or in http://ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg.html#Options .

This is a libavcodec-related option:

Understand that it's a libavcodec option, but it seems inconsistent that ffplay.1 does explicitly document -threads (under *Advanced options*) yet ffmpeg.1 does not.

What is the distinction I'm missing between why -threads is documented in ffplay and not documented in ffmpeg?

Not trying to give you a hard time on what is surely a minor point, but honestly don't understand.
