• stream FFMPEG clients on webserver [closed]

  19 September 2020, by Pierre

  i tried to make a picture that sums up what i want to do.
I hope you understand :)
protocol operation

  


  please guide me
the best of the best would be not to open ports !
clients sending their FFMPEG stream (h264) —> server who interprets them —> front-end which displays all the video streams (php nodejs..)
Thanks x)

  


• Is there a way to batch split a file by chapter with ffmpeg and then reassemble with mkvmerge in windows?

  13 April, by Sipherdrakon

  So I made a batch script originally with the ability to relatively precision trim a video into chapters without having to run by keyframes, but the code looks horrible and I can't get it to loop through all mp4 files nor get mkvmerge to append the files after splitting them. Code is below but be gentle it is my first try.

  I know it is super long and every time I try to use a variable or a loop to run through all files it can't read the json file. I've been at this all day and I can use the script as is but I have to make a file for each iteration.

  


  I was also hoping to be able to have it only pull chapters labeled as "video" but I haven't quite figured that one out yet.

  


  I'll add the vbs batch file for the arithmetic section as well as the sample json if it will help.

del "%temp%\VBS.vbs"

  I also tried using the start_time so I didn't have to do extra calculations but jq didn't like that either.

  


  mkvmerge doesn't even try to run when I have it in here and I still need to cut 7 seconds off the end and 12 seconds off the front of it once it is all one file again.

  


  Any help would be appreciated, I know it's a lot but I seem to have hit a roadblock or just sleep deprived at this point.

  


  UPDATE

  


  This works amazing I just need to figure out how to use files with spaces and I'm all set. I guess I could run a batch before hand replacing all spaces with underscores. That would probably work but I would like to not change filenames if I can help it.

• ffmpeg tpad adding delay to start and stop of film

  10 October 2020, by Devin Dixon

  In ffmpeg there is the -filter_complex "tpad=stop_duration=20" that adds 20 seconds to back of video/stream, or -filter_complex "tpad=start_duration=20" which adds it to the front.

  


  How can I add it to both? Something like ffmpeg  -re -i {$file} -filter_complex "tpad=stop_duration=20&start_duration=20" duration does not work, and there is no documentation I can find on using both filters in one command.
