  • How to use amerge with offset in ffmpeg?

    26 November, by user14706760

    I'm trying to get a mono file out of 2 mono files with offset:

    ffmpeg -itsoffset 2 -i mono1.wav -itsoffset 8 -i mono2.wav -filter_complex [0:a][1:a]amerge out.wav

    But the result I'm getting is a stereo file without an offset. What do I do wrong?

  • Trimming audio using mp4Parser. Or is there any alternative?

    26 November, by user3892282

    I am trying to trim an audio using mp4Parser.
    Is that possible?

    I tried ffmpeg which is quite time consuming.
    Our app does require both video and audio processing.

    Any suggestions on this?

  • Setting B frames in a video with ffmpeg

    26 November, by roberutsu

    According to ffmpeg manual, setting -g is to define space between "I" frames, and setting -bf to use "B" frames. The former I got, but the latter not.

    The goal: I'm trying to have a video with a GOP 3,12 (M= 3, N=12). That means: 2 "B" frames separating each "P" frames, and "I" frames with 12 frames of distance. Or simply: "IBBPBBPBBPBBI"

    I think that I got only the N=12, using the commands below:

    1. ffmpeg -s cif -r 30 -b 64000 -bt 3200 -g 12 -y -i video.yuv -vcodec mpeg4 video.m4v
    2. MP4Box -hint -mtu 1460 -fps 30 -add video.m4v video.mp4
    3. ffmpeg -y -i video.mp4 video_ref.yuv
    4. ../cmd/psnr 352 288 420 video.yuv video_ref.yuv > psnr_ref.txt
    5. ../cmd/mp4trace -f -s 192.168.0.2 12346 video.mp4 > trace
    6. head -n 20 trace

    Result:

    [robert@10-2Fontes]$ head -n 20 trace
1   H   12002   9   0.000
2   P   11479   8   0.034
3   P   12021   9   0.066
4   P   11239   8   0.099
5   P   5407    4   0.134
6   P   2735    2   0.166
7   P   1014    1   0.199
8   P   850 1   0.232
9   P   619 1   0.265
10  P   979 1   0.298
11  P   813 1   0.331
12  P   806 1   0.364
13  H   5109    4   0.396

    *Note, the most important is the command -g 12 in ffmpeg, but I writing all the commands. The video that I'm using is the "highway", from cif page videos: http://www2.tkn.tu-berlin.de/research/evalvid/cif.html

    I don't know why the result trace is using "H" instead of "I".

    I tried to put -bf 2 in ffmpeg command, but did not worked (I think because I saw no "B" indications in the result)

    List item

    ffmpeg -s cif -r 30 -b 64000 -bt 3200 -g 12 -bf 2 -y -i video.yuv -vcodec mpeg4 video.m4v

    Result:

    [robert@10-2Fontes]$ head -n 20 trace
1   H   12002   9   0.001

  • How to include font in FFMPEG command without using the fontfile option?

    26 November, by Avinash Modi

    I am using the following command to add watermark in my video using font TIMESNEWROMAN:

    ffmpeg -i input.webm -vf "drawtext=text='© Krishna':fontfile=C//:/Windows/Fonts/times.ttf:x=(main_w-text_w-10):y=(main_h-text_h-10):fontsize=32:fontcolor=black:box=1:boxcolor=white@0.5: boxborderw=5" -preset ultrafast output.mp4

    Now, I want to provide the font TIMESNEWROMAN or any other font instead of fontfile path. Is it possible to do that?
