• How to use ffmpeg to transcode many live streamed videos ? [closed]

  21 septembre 2020, par user14258924

  PREMISE

  


  As a pet project, I am writing a live video streaming service, in Go, that can consume video streams from OBS via SRT(TS -> h264/aac) and RTMP(FLV -> h264/aac) protocols and am planning to support streaming video from web browser as well, captured from a web camera via JS. This ingress server will receive many video streams in various containers and codecs and I need to normalize them into single container and codec and then create multiple versions for various bitrates(ie. 240p, 360p, 480p, 720p, 1080p...) to pass along where needed in the application. Each stream is split into 2 second GOP segments, separate for audio and video track, that will produce fragmented MP4 as the end result - which can be consumed by web browser.

  


  The issue is that I am using Go which has no libraries for transcoding video so I need to use either ffmpeg or vlc, which is a C code. I have decided to avoid the CGo route and use ffmpeg/vlc as standalone binaries.

  


  QUESTION

  


  My question is how to use either of these project in the most efficient way - avoiding the use of files in favour of unix sockets/streams and also the performance aspect - handling hundreds of video segments in any one time and in sufficient time to avoid creating too much of a lag beteen producer and consumer.

  


  So let's say I will pick the most used one - ffmpeg, how should I actually use it to achieve what I have described ? How would you set it up and which flags/config to use with it ?

  


  Can the performance be even achieved or is it just too much and I will need some sort of ffmpeg cluser to even come close to some useful performance/low delay ?

  


• How do I close a Node.js FFMPEG child process that is actively streaming from a live capture source ?

  1er juin 2013, par RickZ

  I'm new to Node.js and have figured out how to utilize child.spawn to launch an instance of FFMPEG that is being used to capture live video and send it over to Adobe Media Server via rtmp.

  Every example I've seen of FFMPEG being used in conjunction with Node.js has been with a time limited sample, so the child process closes once FFMPEG reaches the end of the file it is converting.

  In this case, there is no "end of file".

  If I instantiate :

      var ffmpeg = child.spawn('ffmpeg.exe', [args]);

  it creates the live feed.

  I have tried immediately shutting the child process down with a :

      setTimeout(function() {
  
          ffmpeg.stdin.resume();
  
          ffmpeg.stdin.write('insert command to echo q to close FFMPEG');
  
          ffmpeg.stdin.end();
  
      });

  However, that does not seem to work. I continue to see my rtmp feed on my test box.

  Is there any way to pass FFMPEG a shut down command via stdin in Node.js ?

  Thanks in advance !

• FFMPEG multi livestream - recorded stream send to different services like YT and Twitch at different time (on different button clicks )

  4 octobre 2022, par Ganesh

  Trying for the last 10 days and still no success, I am creating a python application that will accept the URL and visit that URL using chromium, capture that screen and send that real-time screen recording to different live stream acceptors as youtube live, twitch Twitter, Facebook live or some other sources and many of these could be multiple.

  


  There are two challenges (both challenges depend on a user action like different button clicks) -

  


  

  • The time of starting the Livestream we know only one Livestream acceptor and other acceptors could be sent via another API at any time or may not be sent on the whole live stream.

  


  • Any of the streams could be stopped at any moment including the first one which started the original live streaming service

  


  


  To Solve these challenges I am trying the following process (i took mp4 as a source for simplifying)

  


  

  • create a stream and store it into PIPE.stdout

  


  


  ffmpeg_Command_get_stream = 'ffmpeg -re -i test.mp4 -f flv pipe:1'
ffmpeg_Command_get_stream=ffmpeg_Command_get_stream.split()
pipe = sp.Popen(ffmpeg_Command_get_stream,
            stdout=sp.PIPE,
            stderr=sp.PIPE,
            bufsize=8000000,
            shell=True,
            universal_newlines=True
            )
out,err = pipe.communicate()


  


  


  • and send that stream with the help of FFMPEG to the Livestream acceptor with the click of the youtube Livestream button

    


    ffmpeg_Command_send_stream = ['ffmpeg','-i',pipe.stdout,'-f','flv',RTMPURL_YOUTUBE]

    


  


  


  Update Trying to Explain it a little more :

  


  step 1 - I need a real-time stream from the first command, so I used -re in FFMPEG

  


  step 2 - Use above stream as an input for other command and send that as an output as a Livestream to youtube (or twitch/Facebook), But the second step would happen only when the user click on the button "YT LiveStream", Here the tricky thing is there are multiple buttons (YT LiveStream, Twitch LiveStream, Facebook LiveStream) and user can click any time on any of button, also can click on all button one by one.

  


  

  


  sorry for bad explaination

  


  what I am doing wrong ? , Is this Possible ? or need to go with another process,

  


  any help would be greatly appreciated
