  • An H264 encoded MP4 file cannot be played by VLC/HTML5 browsers, is there any header or meta data I can add to fix it ? [migrated]

    5 avril 2015, par user534498

    I have an MP4 file, which is H264 encoded. I saved the file from RTP streams, with sprop-property-sets in front, and followed by frames. (Note. VLC can directly play the RTP stream without problem.)

    The file can be played by "Videos" program in Linux. If I play it with VLC 2.1.4 in Linux, it shows the following error.

    No suitable decoder module: VLC does not support the audio or video format "undf". Unfortunately there is no way for you to fix this.

    I then open VLC, from preference menu, I change the Demuxer (demultiplexer) from automatic to "H264 Video Demuxer". VLC can then play it.

    So it seems that the problem is VLC cannot automatically detect a demuxer from the video file. However, I am sure that my video file has only video data, and it doesn't even have audio (may not even need a demuxer?)

    I put this file in HTTP server, and use "video" tag for testing, all IE, chrome and firefox browsers cannot play this file, and I guess it's the same reason as VLC cannot play it.

    So is there a way to fix it? For example, is there any place I can add a header to tell VLC or similar players to choose H264 video demuxer?

    Thanks.

  • use AForge.Video.FFMPEG.dll to grab video thumbnail

    5 avril 2015, par Sean

    I am using AForge.Video.FFMPEG.dll to grab video thumbnail on website, it will be shown on webpage or other clients. I downloaded latest version of the dll and related native library into /bin folder and copied to system32 folder as well.

    but when I compiled the project, it will told me: " Could not load file or assembly 'AForge.Video.FFMPEG.DLL' or one of its dependencies. The specified module could not be found.
    "

    1. I copied all DLLs enter image description here

    2. All DLLs are 32bit, not x64 bit.

    3. I saw another article to introduce how to load native c or managed c++ library in asp.net, but doesn't work for me. http://blogs.msdn.com/b/jorman/archive/2007/08/31/loading-c-assemblies-in-asp-net.aspx

    4. My developing environment: Windows2012R2 VS2010

    5. When I was compiling the project, compiler will throw above exception.

    Thanks,

    Sean

  • Restream an MJPEG from Axis IP Camera

    4 avril 2015, par FoleyX90

    Basically we have an IP camera set up offsite and we want people to be able to access the camera's stream. Instead of everybody hitting the camera directly though, I need to our server to be able to grab the camera's stream and distribute that to the users on the website. That way, there's only 1 connection to the camera but we can handle many connections on our server. What tools should I use for this? I'm very experienced in PHP and have some experience in FFMPEG but I can't seem to find the right solution.

  • Raspberry PI raw webcam H264 bit stream to mp4 or png (frame by frame)

    4 avril 2015, par José Neves

    I'm trying to make an facial authentication app with the Raspberry PI web cam, nodeJS and a facial authentication API.

    In the Raspberrey I send the raw bit stream to my nodeJS app:

    raspivid -n -w 720 -h 405 -fps 25 -vf -t 86400000 -b 1800000 -ih -o - | nc 192.168.2.106 2222
    

    and in nodeJS I have a TCP server that receives the raw data:

    net.createServer(function(req, res){
        var fs = require('fs');
        var wstream = fs.createWriteStream('myOutput.h264');
        req.on("data", function(piData){
            wstream.write(piData);
        });
    }).listen(2222);
    

    But I can't do nothing with it in this format, I have to convert it to mp4 and/or frame by frame png images to use on the open-cv module.

    How can I use ffmpeg in the stream to generate an mp4 stream to the browser or file?

  • How to set CONFIG_PATH in Heroku buildpack

    3 avril 2015, par johnklawlor

    Before I elaborate on the problem, I should let you know that I've successfully installed ffmpegthumbnailer on heroku's bash (heroku run bash).

    I'm trying to build ffmpegthumbnailer using a custom Heroku buildpack I've written, but when I run ./configure && make install in the bin/compile buildpack file, ffmpegthumbnailer tells me that it can't find the ffmpeg libs (util, format, codec, scale) and suggest that I set the PKG_CONFIG_PATH. So I set the PKG_CONFIG_PATH and it still can't seem to find the libraries.

    I've tried setting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH every which way. echo export, export, directly set it via PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/app... I've always set it inline with the .configure command. I even set PKG_CONFIG_PATH as a heroku config var, and tried to acces it via the ENV_DIR variable that's passed into the buildpack as the third parameter, but I soon realized that I was simply setting a variable PKG_CONFIG_PATH to the contents of the file called PKG_CONFIG_PATH, i.e. I was setting PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/app/vendor..., which I've already done!! None of these have worked. Also, as you can see in the compile file and the log, echo $PKG_CONFIG_PATH prints the correct path.

    What more debugging can i do? What is going on?

    Below is my bin/compile buildpack file, and the log after I deploy my app to heroku.

    #!/bin/sh
    
    indent() {
      sed -u 's/^/       /'
    }
    
    echo "-----> Install ffmpeg-thumbnailer"
    BUILD_DIR=$1
    VENDOR_DIR="vendor"
    DOWNLOAD_URL="https://ffmpegthumbnailer.googlecode.com/files/ffmpegthumbnailer-2.0.8.tar.gz"
    
    echo "DOWNLOAD_URL = " $DOWNLOAD_URL | indent
    
    cd $BUILD_DIR
    mkdir -p $VENDOR_DIR
    cd $VENDOR_DIR
    curl -L --silent $DOWNLOAD_URL | tar xz
    cd ffmpegthumbnailer-2.0.8/
    export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="$PKG_CONFIG_PATH:/app/vendor/ffmpeg/lib/pkgconfig/"
    echo $PKG_CONFIG_PATH
    ./configure --prefix /app/vendor/ffmpegthumbnailer && make install
    
    echo "exporting PATH and LIBRARY_PATH" | indent
    PROFILE_PATH="$BUILD_DIR/.profile.d/ffmpeg-thumbnailer.sh"
    mkdir -p $(dirname $PROFILE_PATH)
    echo 'export PATH="$PATH:vendor/ffmpeg-thumbnailer/bin"' >> $PROFILE_PATH
    echo 'export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:vendor/ffmpeg-thumbnailer/lib"' >> $PROFILE_PATH
    

    And my heroku deployment log...

    Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you
    installed software in a non-standard prefix.
    
    Alternatively, you may set the environment variables FFMPEG_CFLAGS
    and FFMPEG_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config.
    See the pkg-config man page for more details.
