• Annual Release of External-Videos plugin – we’ve hit v1.0

  13 janvier 2017, par silvia

  This is the annual release of my external-videos wordpress plugin and with the help of Andrew Nimmolo I’m proud to annouce we’ve reached version 1.0 !

  So yes, my external-videos wordpress plugin is now roughly 7 years old, who would have thought ! During the year, I don’t get the luxury of spending time on maintaining this open source love child of mine, but at Christmas, my bad conscience catches up with me – every year ! I then spend some time going through bug reports, upgrading the plugin to the latest wordpress version, upgrading to the latest video site APIs, testing functionality and of course making a new release.

  This year has been quite special. The power of open source has kicked in and a new developer took an interest in external-videos. Andrew Nimmolo submitted patches over all of 2016. He decided to bring the external-videos plugin into the new decade with a huge update to the layout of the settings pages, general improvements, and an all-round update of all the video site APIs which included removing their overly complex SDKs and going straight for the REST APIs.

  Therefore, I’m very proud to be able to release version 1.0 today. Thanks, Andrew !

  Enjoy – and I look forward to many more contributions – have a Happy 2017 !

  NOTE : If you’re upgrading from an older version, you might need to remove and re-add your social video sites because the API details have changed a bit. Also, we noticed that there were layout issues on WordPress 4.3.7, so try and make sure your WordPress version is up to date.

• Change file format from flv to anything android will play

  19 octobre 2011, par Bilthon

  I need to take this file which encoded is in h264 but in a flv container and just put it in a mp4, 3gp or whatever file format the android MediaPlayer will understand.

  I want to do this natively. As I will not be decoding nor encoding anything I think I will not be wasting a lot of power (am I wrong ?)

  I followed the instructions from here http://www.roman10.net/?p=394 and could sucessfully compile and use ffmpeg and use it with mp4 and 3gp files.

  But when it comes to flv files it fails. I understand there is no format definition for flv files in that specific port of ffmpeg for android.

  There is no libavformat/flv.h header file for instance.

  Maybe that's why this works :

  extern AVInputFormat ff_mov_demuxer ;
  av_register_input_format(&ff_mov_demuxer) ;

  While this fails :

  extern AVInputFormat ff_flv_demuxer;
  
  av_register_input_format(&ff_flv_demuxer);

  Question is, is there a light at the end of the tunnel ? has someone done something similar ? is it useful ? I mean, I can always just throw the flv media file into a flash player and voila.. the thing is that this would be a parcial solution, as it will not work for all those folks running slower devices that can't yet run Flash.

  PS. Just in case. Here's some info about the file I'm talking about :

• Why is one ffmpeg webm dash stream much larger than the others ?

  5 janvier 2017, par ranvel

  Over the summer, I worked on putting together a script which took a x264 video/mp3 stream and broke it up into the different streams so that it would work via MSE-DASH. (Based heavily on the instructions on the webmproject.org website) Those same scripts have ceased to work, turning a 6GB video into several 25 Gb videos. I kept up with updates of ffmpeg and so I don’t know when it stopped working, but I am guessing it was due to the way that their DASH Webm implementation was updated.

  I found new method which works better, but still has a major problem with one stream. I was hoping someone could explain how this encoding works so that I could understand the underlying cause.

  #!/bin/bash
  
  COMMON_OPTS="-map 0:0 -an -threads 11 -cpu-used 4 -cmp chroma"
  
  WEBM_OPTS="-f webm -c:v vp9 -keyint_min 50 -g 50 -dash 1"
  
  
  
  ffmpeg -i $1 -vn -acodec libvorbis -ab 128k audio.webm &
  
  ffmpeg -i $1 $COMMON_OPTS $WEBM_OPTS -b:v 500k -vf scale=1280:720 -y vid-500k.webm &
  
  ffmpeg -i $1 $COMMON_OPTS $WEBM_OPTS -b:v 700k -vf scale=1280:720 -y vid-700k.webm & 
  
  ffmpeg -i $1 $COMMON_OPTS $WEBM_OPTS -b:v 1000k -vf scale=1280:720 -y vid-1000k.webm &
  
  ffmpeg -i $1 $COMMON_OPTS $WEBM_OPTS -b:v 1500k -vf scale=1280:720 -y vid-1500k.webm  

  The transcode is not yet complete, but you can see where this is headed :

  -rw-r--r--  1 user  staff    87M Jan  4 23:27 audio.webm
  
  -rw-r--r--  1 user  staff    27M Jan  4 23:42 vid-1000k.webm
  
  -rw-r--r--  1 user  staff   285M Jan  4 23:42 vid-1500k.webm
  
  -rw-r--r--  1 user  staff    15M Jan  4 23:42 vid-500k.webm
  
  -rw-r--r--  1 user  staff    20M Jan  4 23:42 vid-700k.webm

  The 1500k variant is disproportionately larger than the other streams.

  The other problem is that when I use a shorter video, lets say eight or nine minutes, the above configuration runs as expected and everything is perfect. I don’t know where the limit for this is since each test costs a lot of processing power and time, but if it’s less than ten minutes, it works and if its longer than an hour, it produces massive files.
