• ffmpeg m4a/m4b/mp4 output file's "Time" value is incorrect when read into iTunes

  2 juin 2019, par PistoletPierre

  I’m using ffmpeg to convert audiobooks to m4a/m4b/mp4. All seems to work until trying to play them in iTunes. It plays in VLC, QuickTime, and MacOS’s Quicklook without issue.

  "So why are you posting here ? This isn’t an iTunes forum."

  I’m hoping this is iTunes being picky about file formats and that I can add some magic argument to my ffmpeg command and have it spit out something that iTunes can read.

  Below is the bash function I’m using to do the conversion. I’ve tried m4a/mp4/m4b as values for TEMP_FILE_EXTENSION and tried opening the intermediate file as well. It’s always the same corrupted "Time" value when you put it in iTunes.

  dedrm_audible () {
  
    # Check for AtomicParsley, ffmpeg, and 3 args
  
    if (! type AtomicParsley >/dev/null 2>/dev/null) || (! type ffmpeg >/dev/null 2>/dev/null) || [ ! $# -eq 3 ]; then
  
      echo "Usage:"
  
      echo "    dedrm_audible <path to="to"> <activation bytes="bytes"> <path to="to" output="output" file="file">"
  
      echo "    Note: AtomicParsley and ffmpeg must be in PATH variable"
  
      return
  
    fi
  
    local ORIGINAL_PWD="$(pwd)"
  
    local TEMP_DIR="/tmp/audible"
  
    local AUDIOBOOK_FILE="$1"
  
    local ACTIVATION_BYTES="$2"
  
    local OUTPUT_FILE="$3"
  
    local FULL_AUDIOBOOK_PATH="$(realpath "${AUDIOBOOK_FILE}")"
  
    local OUTPUT_PATH="$(realpath "${OUTPUT_FILE}")"
  
    local TEMP_FILE_EXTENSION="m4a"
  
  
  
    mkdir -p "${TEMP_DIR}"
  
    cd "${TEMP_DIR}"
  
  
  
    # Extract the book cover
  
    ffmpeg -activation_bytes "${ACTIVATION_BYTES}" -i "${FULL_AUDIOBOOK_PATH}" -vcodec copy artwork.png
  
    # Convert the audio
  
    ffmpeg -activation_bytes "${ACTIVATION_BYTES}" -i "${FULL_AUDIOBOOK_PATH}" -vn -c:a copy -v debug output.${TEMP_FILE_EXTENSION}
  
    # Add the cover to the new file
  
    AtomicParsley output.${TEMP_FILE_EXTENSION} --artwork artwork.png --overWrite
  
  
  
    # Put it where you want it and clean up
  
    cp output.${TEMP_FILE_EXTENSION} "${OUTPUT_PATH}"
  
    rm artwork.png
  
    rm output.${TEMP_FILE_EXTENSION}
  
    cd "${ORIGINAL_PWD}"
  
  }
  
  </path></activation></path>

  It goes off without a hitch. The new file is there waiting for me, with all the metadata including the cover when I do a "Get Info" or "Quick look" on it (I’m on MacOS). But when opening it and trying to play it in iTunes, the "time" field is way off and it immediately skips to the next song/audiobook in the queue.

  Attempts to convert it within iTunes fail immediately - too quickly to see what’s happening. The errors in the console simply say "Assert failure :" (with nothing after the colon).

  edit : Tommy answered the question. Here’s a working bash function :

  dedrm_audible () {
  
    # Check for AtomicParsley, ffmpeg, and 3 args
  
    if (! type AtomicParsley >/dev/null 2>/dev/null) || (! type ffmpeg >/dev/null 2>/dev/null) || [ ! $# -eq 3 ]; then
  
      echo "Usage:"
  
      echo "    dedrm_audible <path to="to"> <activation bytes="bytes"> <path to="to" output="output" file="file">"
  
      echo "    Note: AtomicParsley and ffmpeg must be in PATH variable"
  
      return
  
    fi
  
    local ORIGINAL_PWD="$(pwd)"
  
    local TEMP_DIR="/tmp/audible"
  
    local AUDIOBOOK_FILE="$1"
  
    local ACTIVATION_BYTES="$2"
  
    local OUTPUT_FILE="$3"
  
    # Alternative to realpath (since I read somewhere that it's not there by default on some systems): OUTPUT_PATH="$( cd "$( dirname "$OUTPUT_FILE" )" &amp;&amp; pwd )"
  
    local FULL_AUDIOBOOK_PATH="$(realpath "${AUDIOBOOK_FILE}")"
  
    local AUDIOBOOK_NAME="${$(basename "${FULL_AUDIOBOOK_PATH}")%.aax}.m4a"
  
    local OUTPUT_PATH="$(realpath "${OUTPUT_FILE}")"
  
    local TEMP_FILE_EXTENSION="m4a"
  
  
  
    mkdir -p "${TEMP_DIR}"
  
    cd "${TEMP_DIR}"
  
  
  
    cp "${FULL_AUDIOBOOK_PATH}" "${AUDIOBOOK_NAME}"
  
  
  
    # Extract the book cover
  
    ffmpeg -activation_bytes "${ACTIVATION_BYTES}" -i "${AUDIOBOOK_NAME}" -vcodec copy artwork.png
  
    # Convert the audio
  
    ffmpeg -activation_bytes "${ACTIVATION_BYTES}" -i "${AUDIOBOOK_NAME}" -vn -c:a copy -v debug output.${TEMP_FILE_EXTENSION}
  
    # Add the cover to the new file
  
    AtomicParsley output.${TEMP_FILE_EXTENSION} --artwork artwork.png --overWrite
  
  
  
    # Put it where you want it and clean up
  
    mv output.${TEMP_FILE_EXTENSION} "${OUTPUT_PATH}"
  
    rm artwork.png
  
    rm "${AUDIOBOOK_NAME}"
  
    cd "${ORIGINAL_PWD}"

• Extract final frame from a video using ffmpeg

  14 mai 2020, par Saavestro

  I know how to extract the first frame by using

  



  ffmpeg -ss 00:00:00 -i input.mp4 -vframes 1 -q:v 31 output.png

  



  Here, the option -ss requires to know the exact time of the frame to extract.

  



  I would like to have the final frame of any .mp4 without knowing the exact final time of the video.

  



  Is there a way to achieve this ?
