• Encoding of two full hd streams in Linux + GPU with Intel HD4000 / VA API / FFMPEG / OpenGL

  27 juin 2017, par qknight

  i want to encode/stream two full hd streams in realtime from my laptop to a remote location using linux/xorg on the host.

  VA API

  for this i’ve been playing with the VA API but the performance is pretty bad with 5.59 fps (see paste below).

  FFMPEG

  using ffmpeg with CPU encoding i get about 200 fps but then all cores of my Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3520M CPU @ 2.90GHz are busy and the fan turns on.

  future plans

  i want GPU support in encoding and later integrate this into a program which streams a virtual xorg ’screen’, see https://lastlog.de/wiki/index.php/Raspberry_PI_virtual_screen for more details on my plans.

  maybe h264 isn’t even what i want ? so if someone advices towards a different implementation, i’d welcome that.

  besides VA API there seems to be QuickSync but i didn’t experiment with that yet as it is not packaged on NixOS just yet.

  note : i need a library to have a smooth integration into the code.

• How to escape all special characters for ffmpeg drawtext filter in java

  28 mars 2022, par ezwrighter

  Does anyone have a good recipe for escaping all of the special characters (',%,\, :,,) from a String in java, that will be used in an ffmpeg drawtext filter chain ? Trying to use replaceAll with different combinations of escaping has been an exercise in frustration !

  



  
String myTextString = "Bob's special\cool mix:stuff @ 40% off";
Runtime.getRuntime().exec(new String[] { "ffmpeg",...., "filter_complex", "drawtext=enable='between(t,0,10)':x=10:y=10:fontfile=Roboto-Black.ttf:text='" + myTextString + "':fontcolor=#a43ddb:fontsize=14", ... });

• How to compile FFmpeg with bash on Windows 10 ?

  10 août 2017, par user2980183

  In the Creators Update (1703), the Windows 10 bash linux (WSL) can run native windows tools. So, under Windows 10, you can now compile FFmpeg with Visual Studio and the required linux utilities, natively, without having to install MinGW or other interop crap software.

  Here is how I tried to compile FFmpeg (using MSVC 2017 toolchain) :

  • I started the bash shell from "Developer Command Prompt for VS 2017" to set PATH variable to find the MSVC compiler/linker.

  • I installed the "make" tool with the following command : "sudo apt-get install make".

  • To call Windows program from the bash shell, I have to type the command with its .exe extension. So, I must adapt the "configure" and "compat/windows/makedef" files to add ".exe" at the end of "cl", "link" (no confusion possible with the /usr/bin/link), "dumpbin" and "lib" executables :

  configure

  cl_major_ver=$(cl 2>&1 | sed -n 's/.*Version \([[:digit:]]\{1,\}\)\..*/\1/p')
  
      if [ -z "$cl_major_ver" ] || [ $cl_major_ver -ge 18 ]; then
  
          cc_default="cl.exe"
  
      else
  
          cc_default="c99wrap cl"
  
      fi
  
      ld_default="link.exe"
  
      nm_default="dumpbin.exe -symbols"
  
      ar_default="lib.exe"

  compat/windows/makedef

  lib.exe -out:${libname} $@ >/dev/null
  
  
  
  arch=$(dumpbin.exe -headers ${libname} |
  
     tr '\t' ' ' |
  
     grep '^ \+.\+machine \+(.\+)' |
  
     head -1 |
  
     sed -e 's/^ \{1,\}.\{1,\} \{1,\}machine \{1,\}(\(...\)).*/\1/')
  
  
  
  dump=$(dumpbin.exe -linkermember:1 ${libname})

  I hope the FFmpeg build tool chain will be adapted in the future to support natively compiling on bash on Windows...

  • If you want to set an absolute path for YASM in the "configure", you have to use the following pattern /mnt/[letter_partition]/path/yasm.exe.

  ./configure --toolchain=msvc --yasmexe='/mnt/e/Home/Important/Development/Toolkit/Tools/yasm-1.3.0-win32.exe' [all other settings you need]

  • The make command should generate the lib as expected.

  • I tried to type make install but I get the following error :
    No rule to make the target "libavutil\x86\x86util.asm", needed for "libavutil/x86/cpuid.o".

  I don’t know what is wrong...

  As you can see, building FFmpeg on bash under Windows is not very developer friendly yet. Compiling FFmpeg in Windows should be as easy as Linux. Do you know if there is an easier way to proceed ? Do you know if this compilation scenario will be officially supported in next versions of FFmpeg (I don’t find any roadmap) ?

  Thanks.
