• When using ffmpeg.exe to create video from sequence of images the result is avi file that show green color why?

  9 January 2014, by user3163653

  In Form1 im taking screenshots of my screen I checked they are ok i save them to the hard disk and see they are ok.

  private void timer1_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
  
          {
  
  
  
              using (bitmap = (Bitmap)ScreenCapture.CaptureScreen(true))
  
              {
  
  
  
              Image mScreenImage = new Bitmap(Screen.PrimaryScreen.Bounds.Width,
  
                                       Screen.PrimaryScreen.Bounds.Height);
  
              Graphics g = Graphics.FromImage(bitmap);
  
              g.CopyFromScreen(0, 0, 0, 0, new Size(bitmap.Width, bitmap.Height));
  
              g.Dispose();
  
                  bitmap.Save(@"D:\Testbmp\" + counter.ToString("D6") + ".jpg", ImageFormat.Jpeg);
  
                  counter++;
  
              ffmp.PushFrame((Bitmap)mScreenImage);
  
  
  
              }
  
  
  
          }

  Then in the new class ffmp im using pipe to get the screenshots and build the avi file in real time:

          string ffmpegFileName = "ffmpeg.exe";
  
          string workingDirectory;

              if (!Directory.Exists(workingDirectory))

              }
  
              ffmpegFileName = Path.Combine(workingDirectory, ffmpegFileName);

          }
  
  
  
          public void Start(string pathFileName, int BitmapRate)
  
          {
  
              try
  
              {
  
  
  
                  string outPath = pathFileName;
  
                  p = new NamedPipeServerStream(pipename, PipeDirection.Out, 1, PipeTransmissionMode.Byte);
  
  
  
                  ProcessStartInfo psi = new ProcessStartInfo();
  
                  psi.WindowStyle = ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden;

                  psi.CreateNoWindow = false;

                  psi.Arguments = @"-f rawvideo -pix_fmt yuv420p -video_size 1920x1080 -i \\.\pipe\mytestpipe -map 0 -c:v mpeg4 -r " + BitmapRate + " " + outPath;
  
                  process = Process.Start(psi);
  
                  process.EnableRaisingEvents = false;
  
                  psi.RedirectStandardError = true;
  
                  p.WaitForConnection();
  
              }
  
              catch (Exception err)
  
              {
  
                  Logger.Write("Exception Error: " + err.ToString());
  
              }
  
          }
  
  
  
          public void PushFrame(Bitmap bmp)
  
          {
  
              try
  
              {
  
                  int length;
  
                  // Lock the bitmap's bits.
  
                  //bmp = new Bitmap(1920, 1080);
  
                  Rectangle rect = new Rectangle(0, 0, bmp.Width, bmp.Height);
  
                  //Rectangle rect = new Rectangle(0, 0, 1280, 720);
  
                  System.Drawing.Imaging.BitmapData bmpData =
  
                      bmp.LockBits(rect, System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageLockMode.ReadOnly,
  
                      bmp.PixelFormat);
  
  
  
                  int absStride = Math.Abs(bmpData.Stride);
  
                  // Get the address of the first line.
  
                  IntPtr ptr = bmpData.Scan0;
  
  
  
                  // Declare an array to hold the bytes of the bitmap.
  
                  //length = 3 * bmp.Width * bmp.Height;
  
                  length = absStride * bmpData.Height;
  
                  byte[] rgbValues = new byte[length];
  
  
  
                  //Marshal.Copy(ptr, rgbValues, 0, length);
  
                  int j = bmp.Height - 1;
  
                  for (int i = 0; i < bmp.Height; i++)
  
                  {
  
                      IntPtr pointer = new IntPtr(bmpData.Scan0.ToInt32() + (bmpData.Stride * j));
  
                      System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal.Copy(pointer, rgbValues, absStride * (bmp.Height - i - 1), absStride);
  
                      j--;
  
                  }
  
                  p.Write(rgbValues, 0, length);
  
                  bmp.UnlockBits(bmpData);
  
              }
  
              catch(Exception err)
  
              {
  
                  Logger.Write("Error: " + err.ToString());
  
              }
  
  
  
          }
  
  
  
          public void Close()
  
          {
  
              p.Close();
  
          }
  
      }
  
  }

  This is the arguments im using now:

  psi.Arguments = @"-f rawvideo -pix_fmt yuv420p -video_size 1920x1080 -i \\.\pipe\mytestpipe -map 0 -c:v mpeg4 -r " + BitmapRate + " " + outPath;

  Before that I tried to use libx264 instead the mpeg4 but it didn't create the avi file good.
  The problem is that the avi file on the hard disk when I play it show just green color.
  I can play any other avi files on my hard disk but when playing this avi file I see green.

  

  And this is what I see when im playing the avi file:

  

  I tried to use Gspot to find if I need any codec to install and this is what I see:

  

  And I have ffdshow installed already so what should I do now ?

  I need to show IP camera streaming to web in all browser

  1. I tried using VLC to convert the stream into HLS(m3u8) with mediaelementjs but its not working in all browser.
  2. Then i tried theora codec to convert it into ogg but VLC was taking too much CPU.

  Suggest me.
