• Non-Monotonous DTS error in current ffmpeg builds causing frame drops, but not on ffmpeg 1.2

  11 avril 2021, par pentinex

  I'm sorry to ask about such a frequently mentioned subject, but I looked through so many threads and I could never figure out what exactly is wrong, so I'm at the end of my wits. Basically, I want to concat a bunch of .ts files using ffmpeg. I use this command line :

  


  ffmpeg -allowed_extensions ALL -fflags +igndts -i chunklist.m3u8 -c copy "output.mkv"

  


  The .m3u8 file contains all the .ts parts. When I do this and it throws Non-Monotonous DTS errors, the result ends up having dropped frames where the DTS errors occur. I have tried multiple approaches :

  


  

  1. As you see above, I added "-fflags +igndts" at one point, though it doesn't help.

  


  2. I experimented with "-fflags +genpts" just out of desperation. Predictably, this made it worse.

  


  3. I tried muxing video and audio separately, to no avail.

  


  


  But weirdly enough, there is one "solution" : when I use ffmpeg 1.2, the resulting video plays smoothly. It doesn't come without issues. The resulting video always reports a frame rate of half of what it should be (14.98 when it should be 29.97). But it plays just like it should. Ideally though, I wouldn't want to use such an old version of ffmpeg, since I'm sure there are things in the background that may go wrong and I'm not even noticing those, so I'd hope I could get these kinds of results on current builds of ffmpeg.

  


  Does anybody have an idea ? I'm kind of losing my mind with this one.

  


• scripting massive number of files with ffmpeg [closed]

  2 décembre 2020, par 8Liter

  Alright, I've got over 5000 MP4 files in a single directory that I would ultimately like to process using ffmpeg. I've got a few different solutions that all work by themselves, but put together do not make my job any easier.
The current file list looks like this, in one single directory :

  


  

  • 10-1.mp4

  


  • 10-2.mp4

  


  • 10123-1.mp4

  


  • 10123-2.mp4

  


  • 10123-3.mp4

  


  • 10123-4.mp4

  


  • 10123-5.mp4

  


  • 10123-6.mp4

  


  • 102-1.mp4

  


  • 103-1.mp4

  


  • 103-2.mp4

  


  • 103-3.mp4

  


  • 107-1.mp4

  


  • 107-2.mp4

  


  • 107-3.mp4

  


  • 107-4.mp4

  


  • 107-5.mp4

  


  • 107-6.mp4

  


  • 11-1.mp4

  


  • 11-2.mp4

  


  


  The ideal process I would like is the following :

  


  A. Take however many files in the directory have a particular prefix, for example the two "11" files at the bottom, and concatenate them into a single MP4 file. The end result is a single "11.MP4"

  


  B. Delete the original two "11-1.mp4" and "11-2.mp4", keeping only the new "11.mp4" complete file.

  


  C. Repeat steps A-B for all other files in this directory

  


  This is not apparently possible right now from what I can glean from other threads, but I've tested a more manual approach which is not clean OR fast, and this is what my workflow looks like in real life...

  


  

  1. move files with same prefix into new folder (I have a working bat file that will do this for me)

  


  2. run a ffmpeg bat file to process an "output.mp4" file (I have a working bat file that will do this for me)

  


  3. delete the original files

  


  4. rename the output.mp4 file to the prefix name (i.e. 11.mp4)

  


  5. copy that file back into the new directory

  


  6. repeat steps 1-5 a thousand times.

  


  


  I've also looked into creating all new directories BASED on the filename (I have a working bat file that will do this for me) and then copy my ffmpeg bat file into each directory, and run each bat file manually... but again it's a ton of work.

  


  (FROM STEP 1 ABOVE)

  


  @echo off
setlocal

set "basename=."
for /F "tokens=1* delims=.*" %%a in ('dir /B /A-D ^| sort /R') do (
   set "filename=%%a"
   setlocal EnableDelayedExpansion
   for /F "delims=" %%c in ("!basename!") do if "!filename:%%c=!" equ "!filename!" (
      set "basename=!filename!"
      md "!basename!"
   )
   move "!filename!.%%b" "!basename!"
   for /F "delims=" %%c in ("!basename!") do (
      endlocal
      set "basename=%%c

   )
)


  


  (FROM STEP 2 ABOVE)

  


  :: Create File List
del "F:\videos\*.txt" /s /f /q
for %%i in (*.mp4) do echo file '%%i'>> mylist.txt

:: Concatenate Files
ffmpeg.exe -f concat -safe 0 -i mylist.txt -c copy output.mp4


  


  Any ideas how I can approach this ? I'm open to powershell, batch, even python if I need to.

  


• Streaming raw h264 video from Raspberry PI to server for capture and viewing [closed]

  24 juin 2024, par tbullers

  This is really an optimization question - I have been able to stream h264 from a raspberry pi 5 to a linux system and capture the streams and save them to .mp4 files.

  


  But I intend to run the video capture and sending on a battery powered Pi Zero 2 W and want to use the least amount of power to maximize battery life and still providing good video quality.

  


  I've explored many different configuration settings but am getting lost in all the options.

  


  This is what I run on the pi :

  


  rpicam-vid -t 30s --framerate 30 --hdr --inline --listen -o tcp://0.0.0.0:5000


  


  I retrieve this video from the more powerful Ubuntu server with :

  


  ffmpeg -r 30 -i tcp://ralph:5000 -vcodec copy video_out103.mp4


  


  It generally works but I receive lots of errors on the server side like this :

  


  [mp4 @ 0x5f9aab5d0800] pts has no valuee= 975.4kbits/s speed=1.19x
Last message repeated 15 times
[mp4 @ 0x5f9aab5d0800] pts has no valuee=1035.3kbits/s speed=1.19x
Last message repeated 15 times
[mp4 @ 0x5f9aab5d0800] pts has no valuee=1014.8kbits/s speed=1.18x
Last message repeated 9 times
[mp4 @ 0x5f9aab5d0800] pts has no valuee=1001.1kbits/s speed=1.17x
Last message repeated 7 times
[mp4 @ 0x5f9aab5d0800] pts has no value
Last message repeated 1 times
[out#0/mp4 @ 0x5f9aab5ad5c0] video:3546kB audio:0kB subtitle:0kB other streams:0kB global headers:0kB muxing overhead : 0.120360%
size= 3550kB time=00:00:27.50 bitrate=1057.5kbits/s speed=1.18x

  


  Any suggestions on how to correct these errors ?

  


  Also any suggestions on how to make the video capture side more efficient ? Should I use a different codec ? (yuv instead of h264 ?) Would using UDP decrease overhead ? Can I improve video quality with the mode or hdr options ? What does denoise do ?

  


  With all the options available with these tools I think it's unlikely that I have a well thought out approach to capture and streaming. I'm hoping that people who are more familiar with this space might be able to provide some suggestions.

  


  Thank you !
