• ffmpeg conversion from MOV to mp4 - how to conserve creation date

  13 juin 2020, par jacobacci

  Windows 10 1909, latest updates.

  



  I am helping a friend move his photos and videos from one Apple ID to another.
I have downloaded all items to my PC using iCloud for PC. I then proceeded to re-upload all the photos to the new Apple ID.
2'000 of the videos are MOV, which I cannot upload to iCloud. I seem to need to convert them to mp4 in order to upload them.

  



  I have converted all of the MOVs to mp4 using the following batch

  



  FOR /F "tokens=*" %%G IN ('dir /b *.MOV') DO ffmpeg -i "%%G" -f mp4 -vcodec copy -acodec mp3 "%%~nG.mp4"


  



  This worked fine and I managed to upload the (now) mp4's to iCloud. Unfortunately all the mp4's now carry yesterday's date as creation date. In iCloud (and on the iPad) all the videos are now displayed with a creation date of 12.6.2020 and it is impossible to find a particular video. Also the context to the photos is lost.

  



  Question :

  



  

  • Is there any way to (batch) convert 2'000 MOV to mp4 while preserving the creation date ?

  


  • alternatively : is there any way to upload the original MOV files to iCloud ?

  This is my code :

  ffmpeg -i wireframe-spendo.mov palette.png -filter_complex fps=25,scale=800:600:flags=lanczos[x],[x][1:v]paletteuse wireframe-spendo.gif

  but after then :

  ffmpeg -i wireframe-spendo.mov palette.png -filter_complex fps=25,scale=800:600:flags=lanczos[x],[x][1:v]paletteuse wireframe-spendo.gif

• How Much H.264 In Each Encoder ?

  8 septembre 2010, par Multimedia Mike — General

  Thanks to my recent experiments with code coverage tools, I have a powerful new — admittedly somewhat specious — method of comparing programs. For example, I am certain that I have read on more than one occasion that Apple’s H.264 encoder sucks compared to x264 due, at least in part, to the Apple encoder’s alleged inability to exercise all of H.264′s features. I wonder how to test that claim ?

  Experiment
  Use code coverage tools to determine which H.264 encoder uses the most features.

  Assumptions

  • Movie trailers hosted by Apple will all be encoded with the same settings using Apple’s encoder.
  • Similarly, Yahoo’s movie trailers will be encoded with consistent settings using an unknown encoder.
  • Encoding a video using FFmpeg’s libx264-slow setting will necessarily throw a bunch of H.264′s features into the mix (I really don’t think this assumption holds much water, but I also don’t know what “standard” x264 settings are).

  Methodology

  • Grab a random Apple-hosted 1080p movie trailer and random Yahoo-hosted 1080p movie trailer from Dave’s Trailer Page.
  • Use libx264/FFmpeg with the ‘slow’ preset to encode Big Buck Bunny 1080p from raw PNG files.
  • Build FFmpeg with code coverage enabled.
  • Decode each file to raw YUV, ignore audio decoding, generate code coverage statistics using gcovr, reset stats after each run by deleting *.gcda files.

  Results

  • x264 1080p video : 9968 / 134203 lines
  • Apple 1080p trailer : 9968 / 134203 lines
  • Yahoo 1080p trailer : 9914 / 134203 lines

  I also ran this old x264-encoded file (ImperishableNightStage6Low.mp4) through the same test. It demonstrated the most code coverage with 10671 / 134203 lines.

  Conclusions
  Conclusions ? Ha ! Go ahead and jump all over this test. I’m already fairly confident that it’s impossible (or maybe just very difficult) to build a single H.264-encoded video that exercises every feature that FFmpeg’s decoder supports. For example, is it possible for a file to use both CABAC and CAVLC entropy methods ? If it’s possible, does any current encoder do that ?
