• Can't play mp4 video using html5 video tag

  7 August 2020, by John Doe

  I am trying to present an mp4 video (h264) using html5:

  


  <video width="320" controls="controls">&#xA;            <source src="/home/nabil/FWork/hikvision/ch01_00000100068000101.mp4" type="video/mp4">&#xA;</source></video>&#xA;

  


  analyzing video codec with ffmpeg gives the following:

  a possible relevant detail is that playing the video using ubuntu's default video reader (ffmpeg in the background) doesn't show any video controls

  


• record long videos from multiple webcams with FFmpeg

  4 August 2020, by Nagamoto

  I am using

  


  ffmpeg -f dshow -vcodec mjpeg -t 6000 -rtbufsize 2.14748e+09  -video_size 1920x1080 -framerate 60 -i video=camID-0 -f dshow -vcodec mjpeg -t 6000 -rtbufsize 2.14748e+09  -video_size 1920x1080 -framerate 60 -i video=camID-1 -map 0  -c:v libx264 -preset ultrafast -y -r 30 fileName_0.mp4 -map 1  -c:v libx264 -preset ultrafast -y -r 30 fileName_1.mp4

  


  to record video from two webcams. Since the output will be compressed further down the line I am mostly concerned with quality and not losing frames. But after about 2min the real-time buffer is full:

  


  [dshow @ 00000221716edf80] real-time buffer [@device_pnp_\\?\usb#vid_15aa&pid_1555&mi_00#6&b8e4142&0&0000#{65e8773d-8f56-11d0-a3b9-00a0c9223196}\global] [video input] too full or near too full (75% of size: 2147480000 [rtbufsize parameter])! frame dropped!


  


  On the other hand capturing uncompressed video results in huge filesizes (1.3 TB for an hour) but encoding with the settings above the computer can't keep up.
Currently the webcams capture 60fps- which is not a must but I can't set them to anything lower.

  


  How can I record long video (max 1.5h) with good quality while keeping file-sizes manageable?

  


  ffmpeg -f dshow -list_options true -i video="3.0 USB Camera"

• FFmpeg continues to process after time specified at "-to"

  4 August 2020, by Yamahabest

  I have a video, where I want to cut a part from the beginning, and from the end. And I want to apply some fade ins/fade outs, and add some text.

  


  So, I came up with the following syntax:

  


  -ss 10 -to 40

  I am quite sure this has worked in the past, but now FFmpeg just keeps on processing endlessly. If I then stop the FFmpeg process, and look at the resulting file, I see that the last frame (of the end of the specified period) just keeps on duplicating.

  


  The drop counter in the console output of FFmpeg also starts increasing at the end of the specified period:

  


  frame=  987 fps= 15 q=-1.0 Lsize=   31357kB time=00:00:41.04 bitrate=6259.0kbits/s dup=0 drop=10 speed=0.644x


  


  I am kind of lost on why this doesn't work anymore. I might have upgraded the FFmpeg executable in the mean time. Maybe my syntax was/is not correct, but I believe it just worked.

  


  It has to be in the complex filter, because when I remove that, it works alright.
It is not in the drawtext part of the complex filter, because it still occurs when I remove that. And when I only do the drawtext, FFmpeg stops correctly at the specified time.

  


  I have tried this, but then it still occurs:

  


  -filter_complex "
    color=0x7F7F7F@0.95:1920x1080[grey_for_fade_out];
    [grey_for_fade_out]fade=t=out:st=12:d=2:alpha=1[grey_fade_out];
    [0:v][grey_fade_out]overlay[video_grey_fade_out];
    color=0x7F7F7F@0.95:1920x1080[grey_for_fade_in];
    [grey_for_fade_in]fade=t=in:st=37:d=2:alpha=1[grey_fade_in];
    [video_grey_fade_out][grey_fade_in]overlay"


  


  Also with this, it still occurs:

  


  -filter_complex "
    [1:v]fade=t=out:st=13:d=2:alpha=1[over];
    [over]scale=iw/1.5:-1[scaled];
    [0:v][scaled]overlay=(main_w-overlay_w)/2:(main_h-overlay_h)/10[video_grey_fade_out_in_logo];
    [1:v]fade=t=in:st=36:d=2:alpha=1[over2];
    [over2]scale=iw/1.5:-1[scaled2];
    [video_grey_fade_out_in_logo][scaled2]overlay=(main_w-overlay_w)/2:(main_h-overlay_h)/2[video_grey_fade_out_in_logo2];
    [2:v]colorchannelmixer=aa=0.5,fade=t=in:st=14:d=2:alpha=1,fade=t=out:st=35:d=2:alpha=1[over3];
    [over3]scale=iw/10:-1[scaled3];
    [video_grey_fade_out_in_logo2][scaled3]overlay=10:10"


  


  I just don't understand. All my fade-ins/-outs seem to be within the specified range:

  


  

  • fade=t=out:st=12:d=2: start at 12 seconds, duration 2 seconds. This ends at 14 seconds, which is smaller than 40 seconds.

  


  • fade=t=in:st=37:d=2: start at 37 seconds, duration 2 seconds. This ends at 39 seconds, which is smaller than 40 seconds.

  


  • fade=t=out:st=13:d=2: start at 13 seconds, duration 2 seconds. This ends at 15 seconds, which is smaller than 40 seconds.

  


  • fade=t=in:st=36:d=2: start at 36 seconds, duration 2 seconds. This ends at 38 seconds, which is smaller than 40 seconds.

  


  


  It is just like some sequence is not ended properly, which is causing FFmpeg to just continue.
