• ffmpeg - resize video and merge with image

  25 April 2018, by Sudesh

  

  I’ve 3 inputs (1st, 2nd and 3rd block)
  1st a mp4 video with 600x400 aspect ratio
  2nd a png image with 600x400 aspect ratio
  3rd a jpeg image with red background

  Output (4th block)

  I need a mp4 video of 600x400 as output, it should have resized video of 422x282 and merge all three as shown in image.

  Can we implement this via ffmpeg command line?
  I’m able to resize video and image separately but having issue in creating desire output.

• Is it possible to merge two or more videos in real-time like this?

  Is it possible to play video online that’s made of two or more video files?

  Since my original post wasn’t clear enough, here’s expanded explanation and question.

  My site is hosted on Linux/Apache/PHP server. I have video files in FLV/F4V format. I can also convert them to other available formats if necessary. All videos have same aspect ratio and other parameters.

  What I want is to build (or use if exist) online video player that plays video composed of multiple video files concatenated together in real-time, i.e. when user clicks to see a video.

  For example, visitor comes to my site and sees video titled "Welcome" available to play. When he/she clicks to play that video, I take video files "Opening.f4v", "Welcome.f4v" and "Ending.f4v" and join/merge/concatenate them one after another to create one continuous video on the fly.

  Resulting video looks like one video, with no visual clues, lags or even smallest observable delay between video parts. Basically what is done is some form of on-the-fly editing or pre-editing, and user sees the result. This resulting video is not saved on the server, it’s just composed and played that way real-time.

  Also, if possible, user shouldn’t be made to wait for this merging to be over before he/she sees resulting video, but to be able to get first part of the video playing immediately, while merging is done simultaneously.

  Is this possible with flash/actionscript, ffmpeg, html5 or some other online technology? I don’t need explanation how it’s possible, just a nod that it’s possible and some links to further investigate.

  Also, if one option is to use flash, what are alternatives for making this work when site is visited from iphone/ipad?

• FFMpeg Command work in command line, but not in python script. (Semi Solved)

  Okay, kind of a weird problem. But I’m not sure whether it’s python, ffmpeg, or some stupid thing I’m doing wrong.

  I’m trying to take a video, and take 1 frame a second, and output that frame to an image. Right now, if i use the command line with ffmpeg:

  ffmpeg -i test.avi -r 1 -f image2 image-%3d.jpeg -pix_fmt rgb24 -vcodec rawrvideo

  It outputs about 10 images, the images look fine, awesome. Now I have this code (right now some code from some github, as I wanted stuff that i was relatively sure would work, and mine is allll convoluted)

  import subprocess as sp
  
  import numpy as np
  
  import re
  
  import cv2
  
  import time
  
  
  
  FFMPEG_BIN = r'ffmpeg.exe'
  
  INPUT_VID = 'test.avi'
  
  
  
  def getInfo():
  
      command = [FFMPEG_BIN,'-i', INPUT_VID, '-']
  
      pipe = sp.Popen(command, stdout=sp.PIPE, stderr=sp.PIPE)
  
      pipe.stdout.readline()
  
      pipe.terminate()
  
      infos = pipe.stderr.read()
  
      infos_list = infos.split('\r\n')
  
      res = re.search(' \d+x\d+ ',infos)
  
      res = [int(x) for x in res.group(0).split('x')]
  
      return res
  
  res = getInfo()
  
  command = [ FFMPEG_BIN,
  
          '-i', INPUT_VID,
  
          '-f', 'image2pipe',
  
          '-pix_fmt', 'rgb24',
  
          '-vcodec', 'rawvideo', '-']
  
  pipe = sp.Popen(command, stdout = sp.PIPE, bufsize=10**8)
  
  n = 0
  
  im2 = []
  
  try:
  
      mog = cv2.BackgroundSubtractorMOG2(120,2,True)
  
      while True:
  
          raw_image = pipe.stdout.read(res[0]*res[1]*3)
  
          # transform the byte read into a numpy array
  
          image =  np.fromstring(raw_image, dtype='uint8')
  
          image = image.reshape((res[1],res[0],3))
  
          rgbImg = image.copy()
  
  
  
          fname = ('_tmp%03d.png'%time.time())
  
          cv2.imwrite(fname, rgbImg)
  
          # throw away the data in the pipe's buffer.
  
          #pipe.stdout.flush()
  
          n += 1
  
          print n
  
  except:
  
      print 'done',n
  
      pipe.kill()
  
      cv2.destroyAllWindows()

  When I run this, I get 10 images, but they all have a Blue Tint! I cannot for the life of me figure out why. I’ve done tons of searches, I’ve tried quite a few different codecs (usually just messes things up worse). The media info for the video file is here:

   General

  Stream size                              : 20.1 KiB (24%)

  Any suggestions? It seems like it should be an RGB mixup...just not sure where at...

  EDIT: So I fixed the problem by switching the blue and red channels with this code:
  bChannel = rgbImg[:,:,0]
  rChannel = rgbImg[:,:,2]
  gChannel = rgbImg[:,:,1]

              rgbArray = np.zeros((res[1],res[0],3), 'uint8')
  
              rgbArray[...,0] = rChannel
  
              rgbArray[...,1] = gChannel
  
              rgbArray[...,2] = bChannel

  So I guess this is now a question of, why is python mixing up these channels? Is it a problem with python, or ffmpeg, the codec?

  Thanks!
