• Dissappearing characters in youtube-dl, ffmpeg, and windows

  4 June 2014, by user3407161

  so what happens is that if the video title has a symbol that isn’t supported by your current locale then ffmpeg won’t be able to get to that file properly.

  Here’s one example

  ►2 HOURS BEST MELODIC DUBSTEP MIX APRIL 2013◄ ヽ( ≧ω≦)ﾉ

  as you may or may not be able to see, lots of symbols from unicode.

  The problem is that in cmd and ffmpeg, though cmd can see

  ►2 HOURS BEST MELODIC DUBSTEP MIX APRIL 2013◄ ヽ( ≧ω≦)ﾉ

  ffmpeg only sees

  2 HOURS DUBSTEP_DRUMSTEP MIX AUGUST 2013 ヽ(≧ω≦)ﾉ

  This is the exact error message (i’m using youtube-dl)

  [ffmpeg] Adding metadata to 'C:\Music\ToBeDone\2014-06-01\►2 HOURS DUBSTEP_DRUMSTEP MIX AUGUST 2013◄ ヽ( ≧ω≦)ﾉ.mp4'
  
  ERROR: C:\Music\ToBeDone\2014-06-01\2 HOURS DUBSTEP_DRUMSTEP MIX AUGUST 2013 ヽ(≧ω≦)ﾉ.mp4: No such file or directory
  
  ERROR: WARNING: unable to obtain file audio codec with ffprobe

  After some research i’ve determined that by changing the system locale you can change which symbols cmd can support.

  However

  ヽ

  Used to appear as a box in a question mark in United states locale. In japanese locale it appears as it does on your screen right now.

  the problem with

  ◄

  is that even though it’s not appearing as a question mark in a box (it’s appearing as how it should be), ffmpeg (or cmd) can’t detect it properly.

  (Refer back to the error message, i’ll repost it below.)

  [ffmpeg] Adding metadata to 'C:\Music\ToBeDone\2014-06-01\►2 HOURS DUBSTEP_DRUMSTEP MIX AUGUST 2013◄ ヽ( ≧ω≦)ﾉ.mp4'
  
  ERROR: C:\Music\ToBeDone\2014-06-01\2 HOURS DUBSTEP_DRUMSTEP MIX AUGUST 2013 ヽ(≧ω≦)ﾉ.mp4: No such file or directory
  
  ERROR: WARNING: unable to obtain file audio codec with ffprobe

  So as you can see, I think cmd passed on the symbol correctly to ffmpeg seeing from the adding metadata line, but when it actually does the operation ffmpeg loses

  ► and ◄

  Could this be a bug with ffmpeg? MY workaround so far with incompatible symbols was to change the system locale, but I don’t think i can do that with these two symbols...

  These are the unique characters that i need to have a locale that supports

  and this is what’s going on (Batch Script)

  @echo off
  
  setlocal
  
  cd C:\youtube-dl
  
  
  
  set /p "var1=Enter URL: " %=% pause
  
  if defined var1 set "var1=%var1:"=%"
  
  set "var2=%date:/=-%" 
  
  set "var3=%%(title)s.%%(ext)s"
  
  youtube-dl "%var1%" -ci -o "C:\Music\ToBeDone\%var2%\%var3%" -f best -x --no-mtime --add-metadata

• Piping pi's opencv video to ffmpeg for Youtube streaming

  15 June, by Mango Plaster

  This is a small python3 script reading off picam using OpenCV :

  


  #picamStream.py

import sys, os
from picamera.array import PiRGBArray
from picamera import PiCamera
import time
import cv2
 
# initialize the camera and grab a reference to the raw camera capture
camera = PiCamera()
camera.resolution = (960, 540)
camera.framerate = 30
rawCapture = PiRGBArray(camera, size=(960, 540))
 
# allow the camera to warmup
time.sleep(0.1)
 
# capture frames from the camera
for frame in camera.capture_continuous(rawCapture, format="bgr", use_video_port=True):

    image = frame.array
 
    # ---------------------------------
    # .
    # Opencv image processing goes here
    # .
    # ---------------------------------

    os.write(1, image.tostring())
 
    # clear the stream in preparation for the next frame
    rawCapture.truncate(0)

# end


  


  And I am trying to pipe it to ffmpeg to Youtube stream

  


  My understanding is that I need to reference below two commands to somehow come up with a new ffmpeg command.

  


  


  Piping picam live video to ffmpeg for Youtube streaming.

  Piping OPENCV raw video to ffmpeg for mp4 file.

  So far I've had no luck. Can anyone help me with this?
