• How do you make a modern bleep censor ? (With ffmpeg or other ready-made software)

  1er août 2023, par nick carraway

  I have always been a fan of live caller radio shows. These (sports) shows allow callers to call a hotline and talk to the radio host directly.

  


  One of the oldest problems with this show format is what if the caller curses, or says something highly inappropriate ? To keep the show clean (and legal), the radio shows broadcast with a 7 second delay. They also use a "bleep" censor, which historically allowed them to wipe the incriminating phrase with a "Beeeeeep" sound. These days, however, they completely cut out the caller's sentence before it even begins. ("Ah, we had to let you go there pal. Can't say that on the radio"). In the modern method, the transition is seamless, almost like they shorten the 7 second delay to a 4 second delay as they remove the start of the caller's reply entirely, and overwrite it with the host's explanations. The caller does not appear to be "interrupted" at all, the start of their sentence leading to the bad phrase is never even broadcasted.

  


  I've been thinking about how to do this in software. I found a project that looked promising. It adds a 7 second delay to your streams, and allows you to convert X amount of those seconds into silence assuming a caller says something inappropriate. While not ideal (since it's a few seconds of dead silence and would interrupt the caller mid-sentence), how can you do something like this in ffmpeg ? It is a good starting point before implementing the more modern features.

  


  


  1. How do you use ffmpeg to livestream a video/audio stream with a delay ?

     


  


  2. How do you overwrite the last 3 seconds of that stream with silence or a "bleep", when you need to ?

     


  


  3. Are you able to easily switch your stream to overwrite those 3 seconds with new audio (e.g. the host's explanation for why the caller was hung-up on) ? And how can you go back from a 4 second delay to a 7 second delay ?

     


  


  4. OR, is there a ready-made way to get flawless "radio-like" hang-ups on bad callers ?

• Is it still possible to compile modern x264 with the nal long start code used prior to release r1510 ?

  25 avril 2024, par Bryan Knowles

  I'm currently nerding out on old technology with HD-DVDs. The only freely available muxer is hddvdmux, I'm using MultiAVCHD for this.
Beginning with r1510, x264 switched to short start packets for NAL HRD (from what I understand). This makes the stream incompatible with hddvdmux.
deank on doom9 patched hddvdmux to accept short start codes, but in doing so, the video file plays too quickly and the audio goes out of sync.
The results I'm getting from the 2009 release of x264 leave much to be desired in comparison to modern releases, and I'd like to get those benefits while still maintaining compatibility with the original hddvdmux.
Is it possible ? If so... Any chance someone could compile a Windows binary for me with that change ? (I think it needs to be 32 bit, but not sure)

  


  I've tried multiple options with MultiAVCHD 4.1, fell back to 4.0 but am seeing weird rainbowing effects in the color from the extremely old version if x264. I admit I haven't dived in to programming, but seemed like a single change might be a reasonable request from someone already knowledgeable.
