• cannot convert FLV to MP4 despite compiling ffmpeg with all codecs

  1er novembre 2013, par Rubytastic

  Try to convert FLV to MP4 with below params, but it always fails. I included also list of codeces that are compiled in. Why It will not convert the FLV to MP4, who knows ?

   ffmpeg -y -i stream2.flv -acodec libmp3lame -ar 44100 -ac 1 -vcodec libx264 stream2.mp4;

• How to get .mp4 videos from motion on a Raspberry Pi ?

  3 novembre 2017, par Maarti

  I use motion on my laptop and it works perfectly in any format. But when I use it on my Raspberry Pi 3 (Raspbian Jessie) with the Raspberry Camera V2, the only formats that work are : .avi and .swf.

  When I choose any other format, the output video is a "0 sec video" that is played and closed instantly.

  I would like to have .mp4 or .ogg output so I can read it easily with HTML5.

  Here is the motion codec documentation.

  Here is my config file :

• How to get .mp4 videos from motion on a Raspberry Pi ?

  9 octobre 2016, par Maarti

  I use motion on my laptop and it works perfectly in any format. But when I use it on my Raspberry Pi 3 (Raspbian Jessie) with the Raspberry Camera V2, the only formats that work are : .avi and .swf.

  When I choose any other format, the output video is a "0 sec video" that is played and closed instantly.

  I would like to have .mp4 or .ogg output so I can read it easily with HTML5.

  Here is the motion codec documentation.

  Here is my config file :
