• Continuous RTSP stream recording with ffmpeg. Can I optimize it to not damage the SD card ?

  10 juillet 2019, par Mona

  I have got an IP camera with RTSP stream. I decided to record the stream using ffmpeg (version 3.2.14-1 deb9u1) on the Odroid-N2 device with Armbian. I have created a .sh script which is launched by Croon every minute. It checks if the ffmpeg recording is active for selected camera and also deletes files older than 7 days :

  #!/bin/bash
  
  RecordPathAndFind='/home/mona/CameraRecordings/Camera1/'
  
  SegmentTime=900
  
  MinutesAfterDeleteOldFiles=10080
  
  DaysSecurityLimit=31
  
  
  
  tempoutput=$(ps aux | grep ffmpeg | grep $RecordPathAndFind)
  
  if [ ${#tempoutput} -ge 5 ];
  
  then
  
        echo "FFMPEG with record command is already running. Skipping.\n"
  
  else
  
        echo "FFMPEG with record command is not running. Starting now...\n"
  
        FFMPEGSTART=$(su - mona -c "cd /home/mona; /usr/bin/screen -dmS ffmpegcamera1 ffmpeg -rtsp_transport udp -i 'rtsp://admin:password@192.168.1.xxx:554/onvif1' -vcodec copy -c:a aac -map 0 -f segment -segment_time $(echo $SegmentTime) -segment_format mp4 -strftime 1 $(echo $RecordPathAndFind)%Y-%m-%d_%H-%M-%S.mp4")
  
  fi
  
  
  
  currenthourminutes=$(date +%M)
  
  if [ "$currenthourminutes" == "00" ]; then
  
      echo "Current Minute is 00. Checking for old files to delete.\n"
  
      FILESDELETECOMMAND=$(find $(echo $RecordPathAndFind) -maxdepth 1 -type f -mmin +$(echo $MinutesAfterDeleteOldFiles) -mtime -$(echo $DaysSecurityLimit) -name '*.mp4' -ls -exec rm {} \;)
  
  else
  
      echo "Current Minute is NOT 00. Skipping.\n"
  
  fi

  The script works fine, but I’m afraid of the life of the SD card in this device. I detected that ffmpeg is continuously writing the mp4 file (file size grows all the time). I think it would be better if ffmpeg waited for 1MiB before flushing it to disk.

  I tried different ffmpeg settings (adding "blocksize", "flush_packets", "reorder_queue_size" and few others I can’t recall now), unfortunately it didn’t change anything. The mp4 file size was increasing all the time (even by few KBs).

  The first question is : Should I be worried about the microSD card life when ffmpeg is all the time writing the file (current environment) ?

  The second question is : Are there any other ffmpeg optimization settings which I missed ?

  If my fears regarding the SD card life are correct, can you please recommend some other things which I could add to my script (or change in system) in order to increase the life of micro SD cards (or USB sticks) used for recording purposes ? I was thinking about using the ramdisk, and then manually move the files, however this could cause files loss in case of system reboot, hang, or power outage.

• Why are the red words blurred after opencv and ffmpeg screenshots from a video capture card ? [closed]

  28 août 2024, par yaxin xing

  I tried to take a screenshot after getting the video stream through the video capture card, but the words in red font become blurry after taking the screenshot, but setting the video format to XRGB format in OBS makes it clear. How can I solve this problem in python ?

  


  As you can see in the picture, the red letters are much less clear than the other colors
enter image description here

  


  I tried to capture a frame in ffmpeg and set -pix_fmt but it's still blurry, I tried 4:4:4 color modes like nv12, yuv444, rgb24, etc. but it doesn't work.

  


  I also tried passing ffmpeg's video stream to opencv via pipe, but opencv's recombination of its color channels when converting the video stream caused the colors to change, and didn't solve the problem of the red font not being clear either

  


• Create thumbnails tile for time range of video

  15 février 2014, par Dmitry Mikhaylov

  I need to create, let's say, 12 thumbnails from video, but skip 10 percent in the beginning and in the ending. I found this thing, but it just takes every 1000th frame. In my case this range will be variable and it will be better if it will be in seconds. Can't figure out how to do this with ffmpeg, don't work with it much.
