``show_text ${vf}``. Note that auto-inserted filters for format conversion
are not shown on the list, only what was requested by the user.
+ Normally, the commands will check whether the video chain is recreated
+ successfully, and will undo the operation on failure. If the command is run
+ before video is configured (can happen if the command is run immediately
+ after opening a file and before a video frame is decoded), this check can't
+ be run. Then it can happen that creating the video chain fails.
