• Compressing a Video for HLS Streaming

  12 mars 2018, par jAndy

  I’m in the situation where I have a source file (very high quality, direct output from FCPX) which is in 1080p resolution.

  I use ffmpeg to create a 240, 360, 480 and 720 version to have an adaptive stream quality via HLS, so far so good. My question is about the strategy I’m using.
  Right now, I always use the original file as input for ffmpeg. I was wondering if it wouldn’t be a better idea to convert from 1080 to 720 with full compression algorithms and after that, just re-scale from 720 to 480, 360 and 240.

  I’m not really into video compression and ffmpeg, so I’d just like to hear some expert opinions on this approach. Is there any advantage to always go "all the way" (original file -> compressed/rescaled file) ?

• ffmpeg : concat and encode with one command

  15 mars 2018, par Massimo Vantaggio

  I have a script that automates encode and concat a series of input video files.
  I’m trying to get encode and concat in a single command.

  At the moment it does not work causing immense empty pauses in the final video output.

  I would like to get the result with concat demux instead of concat protocol because it is much harder to automate in a script

  Do you know if it is possible to archive this result with concat demux ?
  Thanks a lot !

• Does this FFMPEG command create videos compatible with ABR playback on video.js player ?

  16 mars 2018, par alchemical

  We’re working on a site that will allow users to upload videos. It then encodes these videos into 4 bitrates. The initial version just lets the user manually select which of the 4 version they would like to play. However, the final version should allow for adaptive bitrate ABR using video.js player. Ideally, we should not need to re-encode the videos again for them to stream with ABR.

  I’m trying to understand if the current FFMPEG statement will support ABR :

  -i \"0\" -i \"1\" -threads 5 -filter_complex \"
  [0:v]scale=-2 :2[bg] ;[1:v]scale=-2:40*2/1080[watermark_scaled] ;[bg]
  [watermark_scaled]overlay=x=main_w-overlay_w-(10*
  2/1080):10*2/1080\" -acodec copy -vcodec libx264 -b:v
  3 \"4\"
