• Video Edit with FFMpeg

  22 octobre 2020, par Max

  I have been trying to figure out small video editing with FFmpeg in Android.

  


  I want to make video to be stopped in some seek position with overlay for a few seconds.

  


  For example, there is original video, and overlay image file.

  


  After 3 seconds, the video will be looked as stopped with overlay for a few seconds (there will not be audio).
In a word, 5 seconds of video needs to be 8 seconds of video. (certain frame needs to be inserted with overlay for 3 seconds.)

  


  How can I solve this with FFMpeg ? If anyone know FFMpeg command for this edit, please help me.

  


• Beware the builtins

  14 janvier 2010, par Mans — Compilers

  GCC includes a large number of builtin functions allegedly providing optimised code for common operations not easily expressed directly in C. Rather than taking such claims at face value (this is GCC after all), I decided to conduct a small investigation to see how well a few of these functions are actually implemented for various targets.

  For my test, I selected the following functions :

  • __builtin_bswap32 : Byte-swap a 32-bit word.
  • __builtin_bswap64 : Byte-swap a 64-bit word.
  • __builtin_clz : Count leading zeros in a word.
  • __builtin_ctz : Count trailing zeros in a word.
  • __builtin_prefetch : Prefetch data into cache.

  To test the quality of these builtins, I wrapped each in a normal function, then compiled the code for these targets :

  • ARMv7
  • AVR32
  • MIPS
  • MIPS64
  • PowerPC
  • PowerPC64
  • x86
  • x86_64

  In all cases I used compiler flags were -O3 -fomit-frame-pointer plus any flags required to select a modern CPU model.
  

  ARM

  Both __builtin_clz and __builtin_prefetch generate the expected CLZ and PLD instructions respectively. The code for __builtin_ctz is reasonable for ARMv6 and earlier :

  rsb     r3, r0, #0
  and     r0, r3, r0
  clz     r0, r0
  rsb     r0, r0, #31
  

  For ARMv7 (in fact v6T2), however, using the new bit-reversal instruction would have been better :

  rbit    r0, r0
  clz     r0, r0
  

  I suspect this is simply a matter of the function not yet having been updated for ARMv7, which is perhaps even excusable given the relatively rare use cases for it.

  The byte-reversal functions are where it gets shocking. Rather than use the REV instruction found from ARMv6 on, both of them generate external calls to __bswapsi2 and __bswapdi2 in libgcc, which is plain C code :

  SItype
  __bswapsi2 (SItype u)
  
    return ((((u) & 0xff000000) >> 24)
            | (((u) & 0x00ff0000) >>  8)
            | (((u) & 0x0000ff00) <<  8)
            | (((u) & 0x000000ff) << 24)) ;
  
  DItype
  
  __bswapdi2 (DItype u)
  
  
  
     return ((((u) & 0xff00000000000000ull) >> 56)
  
            | (((u) & 0x00ff000000000000ull) >> 40)
  
            | (((u) & 0x0000ff0000000000ull) >> 24)
  
            | (((u) & 0x000000ff00000000ull) >>  8)
  
            | (((u) & 0x00000000ff000000ull) <<  8)
  
            | (((u) & 0x0000000000ff0000ull) << 24)
  
            | (((u) & 0x000000000000ff00ull) << 40)
  
            | (((u) & 0x00000000000000ffull) << 56)) ;
  
  
  

  While the 32-bit version compiles to a reasonable-looking shift/mask/or job, the 64-bit one is a real WTF. Brace yourselves :

  That’s right, 91 instructions to move 8 bytes around a bit. GCC definitely has a problem with 64-bit numbers. It is perhaps worth noting that the bswap_64 macro in glibc splits the 64-bit value into 32-bit halves which are then reversed independently, thus side-stepping this weakness of gcc.

  As a side note, ARM RVCT (armcc) compiles those functions perfectly into one and two REV instructions, respectively.

  AVR32

  There is not much to report here. The latest gcc version available is 4.2.4, which doesn’t appear to have the bswap functions. The other three are handled nicely, even using a bit-reverse for __builtin_ctz.

  MIPS / MIPS64

  The situation MIPS is similar to ARM. Both bswap builtins result in external libgcc calls, the rest giving sensible code.

  PowerPC

  I scarcely believe my eyes, but this one is actually not bad. The PowerPC has no byte-reversal instructions, yet someone seems to have taken the time to teach gcc a good instruction sequence for this operation. The PowerPC does have some powerful rotate-and-mask instructions which come in handy here. First the 32-bit version :

  rotlwi  r0,r3,8
  rlwimi  r0,r3,24,0,7
  rlwimi  r0,r3,24,16,23
  mr      r3,r0
  blr
  

  The 64-bit byte-reversal simply applies the above code on each half of the value :

  rotlwi  r0,r3,8
  rlwimi  r0,r3,24,0,7
  rlwimi  r0,r3,24,16,23
  rotlwi  r3,r4,8
  rlwimi  r3,r4,24,0,7
  rlwimi  r3,r4,24,16,23
  mr      r4,r0
  blr
  

  Although I haven’t analysed that code carefully, it looks pretty good.

  PowerPC64

  Doing 64-bit operations is easier on a 64-bit CPU, right ? For you and me perhaps, but not for gcc. Here __builtin_bswap64 gives us the now familiar __bswapdi2 call, and while not as bad as the ARM version, it is not pretty :

  rldicr  r0,r3,8,55
  rldicr  r10,r3,56,7
  rldicr  r0,r0,56,15
  rldicl  r11,r3,8,56
  rldicr  r9,r3,16,47
  or      r11,r10,r11
  rldicr  r9,r9,48,23
  rldicl  r10,r0,24,40
  rldicr  r0,r3,24,39
  or      r11,r11,r10
  rldicl  r9,r9,40,24
  rldicr  r0,r0,40,31
  or      r9,r11,r9
  rlwinm  r10,r3,0,0,7
  rldicl  r0,r0,56,8
  or      r0,r9,r0
  rldicr  r10,r10,8,55
  rlwinm  r11,r3,0,8,15
  or      r0,r0,r10
  rldicr  r11,r11,24,39
  rlwinm  r3,r3,0,16,23
  or      r0,r0,r11
  rldicr  r3,r3,40,23
  or      r3,r0,r3
  blr
  

  That is 6 times longer than the (presumably) hand-written 32-bit version.

  x86 / x86_64

  As one might expect, results on x86 are good. All the tested functions use the available special instructions. One word of caution though : the bit-counting instructions are very slow on some implementations, specifically the Atom, AMD chips, and the notoriously slow Pentium4E.

  Conclusion

  In conclusion, I would say gcc builtins can be useful to avoid fragile inline assembler. Before using them, however, one should make sure they are not in fact harmful on the required targets. Not even those builtins mapping directly to CPU instructions can be trusted.

• Using ffmpeg to convert mp3 to mp4 - how to draw filename on generated video ?

  22 mai 2020, par akouris

  Using trial and error I am using the following script on an OSX, to bulk convert a whole folder full of mp3 files, to mp4, by looping a specific video file :

  



  for i in *.mp3; do /usr/local/bin/ffmpeg -stream_loop -1 -i /path_to_filename.mp4 -c copy -v 0 -f nut - | /usr/local/bin/ffmpeg -thread_queue_size 10K -i - -i "$i" -c copy -map 0:v -map 1:a -shortest "$(basename "$i" )".mp4 ; done; for f in *.mp3.mp4; do mv -v "$f" "${f/.mp3.mp4/.mp4}"; done


  



  How can I also print/add/burn the mp3 filename, without the extension (.mp3), as an additional video layer at the bottom of the generated video screen, and with the added difficulty of word wrapping the text if is too long ?
