• MKV video playback shows a black picture and audio plays good

  24 mars 2023, par gbriones.gdl

  I have an MKV video file that has something wrong, every time I start my player, the video shows full black picture and the audio starts playing good, if I use the seek bar to position the playback anywhere in the time, then the video shows correct picture but audio stops playing, eventually (it takes several seconds) audio starts playing again in sync with video.

  


  The player I am using is the one in Kodi 20.1.0, I have tried enabling/disabling HW acceleration without success.

  


  I also tried VLC 3.0.16, which has a simmilar behavior with the exception that video starts showing from the very begining when opening the file, just when seeking the audio stops for several seconds.

  


  I also tried using ffmpeg to reencode the video with different codecs without success, I have tried multiple video and audio codec combinations, and also tried changing the pixel format.

  


  Then eventually I managed to fix the video by extracting streams into separate files, then merge them again, without reencoding, I thought that maybe something could be wrong with the metadata of the video, so I copied the same metadata and final output file still works fine. My question is how can I fix my video without having to split and merge streams ?

  


  Here is the info about my input file :

  Here are the steps I followed to fix the video, I had to use mkv format for the outputs because other formats were no good at writing metadata :

  


  ffmpeg -i S01E08.mkv -map 0:v:0 -c:v copy -map_metadata 0 video.mkv
ffmpeg -i S01E08.mkv -map 0:a:0 -c:a copy -map_metadata 0 audio1.mkv
ffmpeg -i S01E08.mkv -map 0:a:1 -c:a copy -map_metadata 0 audio2.mkv
ffmpeg -i S01E08.mkv -map 0:s -c:s copy -map_metadata 0 subs.mkv
ffmpeg -i video.mkv -i audio1.mkv -i audio2.mkv -i subs.mkv -map 0:v -map 1:a -map 2:a -map 3:s -c:v copy -c:a copy -c:s copy -map_metadata 0 -map_metadata 1 -map_metadata 2 -map_metadata 3 -disposition:s:0 0 -default_mode infer_no_subs video_audio.mkv


  


  I had to compare both input and output files :

  Then I thought that maybe the disposition flag in the video stream was causing the error, so I ran ffmpeg to copy all streams from my input video S01E08.mkv and added the disposition flag with the following command :

  


  ffmpeg -i S01E08.mkv -map 0:v -map 0:a:0 -map 0:a:1 -map 0:s -c:v copy -c:a copy -c:s copy -map_metadata 0 -disposition:v:0 default -disposition:s:0 0 -default_mode infer_no_subs test.mkv


  


  Still no luck, test.mkv shows no video when opening the file, I had to double check that disposition flag was changed :

  


  $ ffprobe -show_streams test.mkv > probe_bad2.txt
$ diff probe_bad.txt probe_bad2.txt 
40c40
< DISPOSITION:default=0

---

  In other words I have to focibly split and merge to make the file work correctly. May be I need to set the duration and duration_ts of the video stream to N/A but I don't know how to do this.

  


• ffmpeg could not find codec parameters for stream 0 on Ubuntu 22.04, works fine on Ubuntu 18.04

  22 février 2023, par ngm

  I'm new to ffmpeg but I've got an odd issue which seems to arise from using it on different Ubuntu versions.

  


  I have an NVIDIA Jetson Nano running Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS (GNU/Linux 4.9.201-tegra aarch64). Plugged into the Nano's carrier board is an embedded camera that shows up as a Sunplus Innovation Technology Inc. USB2.0 Camera RGB when I run lsusb.

  


  When I run this ffmpeg command, I can successfully record video from the camera, which seems to be mjpeg codec with yuvj422p pixel format. The output is as follows :

  However, I'd like to replace this Nano with another that I've upgraded to Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS (GNU/Linux 4.9.299-tegra aarch64). The device still shows up as the same type when running lsusb. Running the exact same command results in the following :

  I'm not sure why I can't read this video stream when everything seems to be the same but the OS and the ffmpeg version.

  


  I've checked the available codecs and pixel formats using ffmpeg -codecs and ffmpeg -pix_fmts :

  


  Ubuntu 18.04.5, ffmpeg version 3.4.8-0ubuntu0.2 :

  


  DEVIL. mjpeg                Motion JPEG (encoders: mjpeg mjpeg_vaapi )

  


  IO... yuvj422p               3            16

  


  Ubuntu 22.04.1, ffmpeg version 4.4.2-0ubuntu0.22.04.1 :

  


  DEVIL. mjpeg                Motion JPEG (decoders: mjpeg mjpeg_cuvid ) (encoders: mjpeg mjpeg_vaapi )

  


  IO... yuvj422p               3            16

  


  So it seems like I should be able to record video on both with this codec/pixel format combination.

  


  I've also tried forcing ffmpeg to use this combination on the 22.04 Nano with the following command :

  


  ffmpeg -f v4l2 -input_format mjpeg -framerate 100 -video_size 928x400 -pix_fmt yuvj422p -i /dev/video0 -an -vcodec libx264 test_capture.mp4

  


  But I get the same error. I've also tried increasing the -analyzeduration and -probesize arguments to 100M, with no luck.

  


  Are there other commands or settings I should use ? Should I downgrade my ffmpeg version if possible ?

  


• ffmpeg / avconv Unrecognized option 'target=vcd'

  2 février 2023, par Paul Neuwirth

  I get following error

  


  Unrecognized option 'target=vcd'.
Error splitting the argument list: Option not found


  


  running

  


  ffmpeg -i input.ts -target=vcd output.mpg


  


  or

  


  avconv -i input.ts -target=vcd output.mpg


  


  (or any other target like "pal-dvd", like stated in the man-file)

  despite solving the problem, I'd be happy with any other solution to compress video to pal-dvd or pal-vcd standard

  


  I tried re-encoding a mpeg-2 video using avconv and/or ffmpeg to target pal-dvd or pal-vcd or even just vcd or dvd.
manpage states option -target as main option :

  


  


      -target type (output)


  


  Specify target file type ("vcd", "svcd", "dvd", "dv", "dv50"). type may be prefixed with "pal-", "ntsc-" or "film-" to use the corresponding standard. All the format options
(bitrate, codecs, buffer sizes) are then set automatically. You can just type :

  


  avconv -i myfile.avi -target vcd /tmp/vcd.mpg

  


  Nevertheless you can specify additional options as long as you know they do not conflict with the standard, as in :

  


  avconv -i myfile.avi -target vcd -bf 2 /tmp/vcd.mpg
