• Amazon Elastic Transcoder vs FFMPEG [on hold]

  17 janvier 2015, par KiranD

  I’m developing a website (php based) and there is a provision to upload videos in different formats. I’m using HTML5 player for the front end presentation. So, as the ideal format that is supported by most of the browsers is mp4, I tried using ffmpeg and it works fine.

  I would like to know which transcoder (Amazon Elastic Transcoder or FFMPEG) would be best for handling conversions parallely when there is a huge traffic.

  There could me approximately thousands of users watching the videos and may be hundreds uploading the videos at the same time. I’m using Amazon EC2 for deployment and the traffic is mostly spiky (not flat).

  I’m not sure about the acceptable speed. But, I need the one which can transcode the videos much faster.

• FFMPEG failing in AWS Lambda

  18 février 2019, par Zaid Amir

  I am trying to create a transcoding function for short videos. The function is hosted on AWS Lambda. The problem is that AWS lambda seems to be missing something that FFMPEG requires, at least according to Amazon.

  I contacted Amazon earlier and this is their response to the issue :

  We found that the FFMPEG operations require at least libx264 and an
  acc library, both of which will have dependencies of their own. To
  troubleshoot the issue it will involve diving deeper into the full
  dependency chain. We can see that it works in the Amazon Linux
  environment however, the environment is similar but not identical to
  the lambda environment. There can be some dependencies that exist in
  Amazon Linux but not in lambda environment as Lambda runs on the
  container. Here, as FFmpeg is a third party software, diving deeper
  into the dependency chain and verifying the version compatibilities is
  very hard to do. Unfortunately going further, this is bound to go into
  architecture and code support which is out of AWS Support scope 1. I
  hope you understand our limitations. However should FFmpeg support
  have any questions specific to the Lambda platform, please do let us
  know and we will be happy to assist. We will be in better position to
  investigate further once you receive an update from the FFmpeg support
  suggesting an issue from Lambda end.

  Upon AWS suggestion, I contacted FFMPEG on the developers mailing list, my message was rejected with the reason being that its more suited to ffmpeg users mailing list than developers. I sent an email to ’ffmpeg-user@ffmpeg.org’ a week ago and did not get any response yet.

  I then went and built a dynamically linked ffmpeg version making sure to package all libraries, checked ddl on each one, then made a small lambda function that looped over all binaries and ddled each one of them, compared that to the output I got from Amazon Linux and the same dependencies/versions exists on both lambda and the AWS Linux instance yet ffmpeg still fails on lambda.

  You can find a detailed log file here : https://www.datafilehost.com/d/6e5e21bb

  And this is a sample of the errors I’m getting, repeated across the entire log file :

  This log is generated when trying to perform an HLS transcoding on this file : https://www.datafilehost.com/d/999a4492

  Note that the issue is not related to that file alone nor is it related to HLS, its general and happen on all videos and any ffmpeg command that tries to seek the stream, even tried extracting a single frame from a video using the simplest form possible for example : ffmpeg -ss 00:00:02 -I file.mp4 -vframes 1 -y output.jpg also fails with the same errors in the log file.

  Not sure how to debug this further. Tried enabling debug logs with ‘-loglevel debug’ but did not give me any extra info. Any help or suggestions
