• Why doesn't this FFmpeg code create a video from a series of images?

  20 October 2011, by user551117

  I have successfully compiled the FFmpeg library for use in an iOS application. I would like to use it for encoding a video from a series of images, but I can't seem to make it work.

  The following is the code that I am using to encode this video:

  AVCodec *codec;
  
  AVCodecContext *c= NULL;
  
  int i, out_size, size, outbuf_size;
  
  FILE *f;
  
  AVFrame *picture;
  
  uint8_t *outbuf;
  
  
  
  printf("Video encoding\n");
  
  
  
  /// find the mpeg video encoder
  
  codec=avcodec_find_encoder(CODEC_ID_MPEG4);
  
  //codec = avcodec_find_encoder(CODEC_ID_MPEG4);
  
  if (!codec) {
  
      fprintf(stderr, "codec not found\n");
  
      exit(1);
  
  }
  
  
  
  c= avcodec_alloc_context();
  
  picture= avcodec_alloc_frame();
  
  
  
  // put sample parameters 
  
  c->bit_rate = 400000;
  
  /// resolution must be a multiple of two 
  
  c->width = 320;
  
  c->height = 480;
  
  //frames per second 
  
  c->time_base= (AVRational){1,25};
  
  c->gop_size = 10; /// emit one intra frame every ten frames
  
  c->max_b_frames=1;
  
  c->pix_fmt = PIX_FMT_YUV420P;
  
  
  
  //open it
  
  if (avcodec_open(c, codec) < 0) {
  
      fprintf(stderr, "could not open codec\n");
  
      exit(1);
  
  }
  
  
  
  f = fopen([[NSTemporaryDirectory() stringByAppendingPathComponent:filename] UTF8String], "w");
  
  if (!f) {
  
      fprintf(stderr, "could not open %s\n",[filename UTF8String]);
  
      exit(1);
  
  }
  
  
  
  // alloc image and output buffer
  
  outbuf_size = 100000;
  
  outbuf = malloc(outbuf_size);
  
  size = c->width * c->height;
  
  
  
  #pragma mark -
  
  AVFrame* outpic = avcodec_alloc_frame();
  
  int nbytes = avpicture_get_size(PIX_FMT_YUV420P, c->width, c->height);
  
  
  
  //create buffer for the output image
  
  uint8_t* outbuffer = (uint8_t*)av_malloc(nbytes);
  
  
  
  #pragma mark -  
  
  for(i=1;i<48;i++) {
  
      fflush(stdout);
  
  
  
      int numBytes = avpicture_get_size(PIX_FMT_YUV420P, c->width, c->height);
  
      uint8_t *buffer = (uint8_t *)av_malloc(numBytes*sizeof(uint8_t));
  
  
  
      UIImage *image = [UIImage imageNamed:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%d.png", i]];
  
      CGImageRef newCgImage = [image CGImage];
  
  
  
      CGDataProviderRef dataProvider = CGImageGetDataProvider(newCgImage);
  
      CFDataRef bitmapData = CGDataProviderCopyData(dataProvider);
  
      buffer = (uint8_t *)CFDataGetBytePtr(bitmapData);   
  
  
  
      avpicture_fill((AVPicture*)picture, buffer, PIX_FMT_RGB24, c->width, c->height);
  
      avpicture_fill((AVPicture*)outpic, outbuffer, PIX_FMT_YUV420P, c->width, c->height);
  
  
  
      struct SwsContext* fooContext = sws_getContext(c->width, c->height, 
  
                                                     PIX_FMT_RGB24, 
  
                                                     c->width, c->height, 
  
                                                     PIX_FMT_YUV420P, 
  
                                                     SWS_FAST_BILINEAR, NULL, NULL, NULL);
  
  
  
      //perform the conversion
  
      sws_scale(fooContext, picture->data, picture->linesize, 0, c->height, outpic->data, outpic->linesize);
  
      // Here is where I try to convert to YUV
  
  
  
      // encode the image
  
  
  
      out_size = avcodec_encode_video(c, outbuf, outbuf_size, outpic);
  
      printf("encoding frame %3d (size=%5d)\n", i, out_size);
  
      fwrite(outbuf, 1, out_size, f);
  
  
  
      free(buffer);
  
      buffer = NULL;      
  
  
  
  }
  
  
  
  // get the delayed frames
  
  for(; out_size; i++) {
  
      fflush(stdout);
  
  
  
      out_size = avcodec_encode_video(c, outbuf, outbuf_size, NULL);
  
      printf("write frame %3d (size=%5d)\n", i, out_size);
  
      fwrite(outbuf, 1, outbuf_size, f);      
  
  }
  
  
  
  // add sequence end code to have a real mpeg file
  
  outbuf[0] = 0x00;
  
  outbuf[1] = 0x00;
  
  outbuf[2] = 0x01;
  
  outbuf[3] = 0xb7;
  
  fwrite(outbuf, 1, 4, f);
  
  fclose(f);
  
  free(outbuf);
  
  
  
  avcodec_close(c);
  
  av_free(c);
  
  av_free(picture);
  
  printf("\n");

  What could be wrong with this code?

• broadcast live video from android with ffmpeg source code

  8 November 2012, by keven

  Any suggestion for live stream for android.

  In my app i need to broadcast live video from android on a web,some app like Qik, Justin.tv, Ustream.tv and Bambuser.
  it is developed under ffmpeg,
  anyone would help if there is any open source project like this,or anyone had already done it
  please tell me the project name or send me a copy of the code.

  Email:liangyingshuang@gmail.com

  Thanks.
