• Is there an efficient way to retrieve frames from a video in Android ?

  28 mars 2015, par Naveed

  I have an app which requires me to retrieve frames from a video and do some processing with them. However it seems like that the frame retrieval is very slow to the point where it is unacceptable. Sometimes it is taking upto 2.5 second to retrieve a single frame. I am using the MediaMetadataRetriever as most stackoverflow questions suggested. However the performance is very bad. Here is what I have :

     private List<bitmap> retrieveFrames() {
  
  
  
          MediaMetadataRetriever fmmr = new MediaMetadataRetriever();
  
          fmmr.setDataSource("/path/to/some/video.mp4");
  
          String strLength = fmmr.extractMetadata(MediaMetadataRetriever.METADATA_KEY_DURATION);
  
          long milliSecs = Long.parseLong(strLength);
  
          long microSecLength = milliSecs * 1000;
  
  
  
          Log.d("TAG", "length: " + microSecLength);
  
          long one_sec = 1000000; // one sec in micro seconds
  
  
  
          ArrayList<bitmap> frames = new ArrayList&lt;>();
  
          int j = 0;
  
          for (int i = 0; i &lt; microSecLength; i += (one_sec / 5)) {
  
              long time = System.currentTimeMillis();
  
              Bitmap frame = fmmr.getFrameAtTime(i, MediaMetadataRetriever.OPTION_CLOSEST);
  
              j++;
  
              Log.d("TAG", "Frame number: " + j + " Time taken: " + (System.currentTimeMillis() - time));
  
              // commented out because each frame would be written to disk instead of holding them in memory
  
              //  frames.add(frame);
  
          }
  
          fmmr.release();
  
          return frames;
  
      }
  
  </bitmap></bitmap>

  The above will logs :

  As you can see from above, it is taking about 18 - 25 sec to retrieve 25 frames from a 4 sec long video.

  I have also tried this which uses FFmpeg underneath to do the same. I am not sure how well this library is implemented but it only improves the over all performance by a couple of seconds meaning it takes about 15-20 sec to do the same.

  So my question is : is there a way to do it quicker ? My friend has an iOS app where he does something similar but it only takes couple of seconds and he is grabbing even more frames however he is not sure how to do it on android.

  Is there anything on android that would speed up the process. Am I approaching this wrong ?

  The end goal is to stitch those frames together into a gif.

• H.264 adds broken still frames to the end

  14 mai 2015, par Panupat

  I’ve been using ffmpeg to encode raw AVI into H.264 MP4 for about 2 years without problem. However, in my recent project we’re using 60 fps for the first time and face some weird results.

  Here’s an example file. It has 82 frames. FFMPEG would produce the correct result from frame 1 to 82. Here’s a capture at frame 82.

  http://imgur.com/VCIcoVH

  Then, we get this still frame added to the end, from frame 83 to 157.

  

  Am I doing something wrong in my command ? I tried with almost no options.

  ffmpeg -y -i "C:\tmp\uncompressed.avi" -r 60 -vcodec libx264 "C:\tmp\compressed.mp4"

  Tried a couple different options, the problem still occurs.

  ffmpeg -y -i "C:\tmp\uncompressed.avi" -r 60 -vcodec libx264 -keyint_min 12 -vb 4000k -vprofile high -pix_fmt yuv420p -f mp4 "C:\tmp\compressed.mp4"

  Tried with FFmpeg Win64 Static and Shared build by Kyle Schwarz.

  Appreciate any help, thank you !
