• Forward youtube-dl output to ffmpeg with hardware-accelerated encoding [closed]

  16 mars 2021, par Yehor

  I'm trying to download some videos from youtube and simultaneously forward those to ffmpeg for hardware decoding to h265 (just for purpose of seeing how it works).

  


  My command, that works, but uses (as I understand) software encoding :

  


  youtube-dl -o "./%(playlist)s/%(title)s.%(ext)s" --merge-output-format mkv --postprocessor-args "-c:v libx265 -c:a opus -strict experimental" "target_url"


  


  When I specify the hardware acceleration, I receive the error "Invalid argument". The command is :

  


  youtube-dl -o "./%(playlist)s/%(title)s.%(ext)s" --merge-output-format mkv --postprocessor-args "-hwaccel cuda -c:v hevc_nvenc -c:a opus -strict experimental" "target_url"


  


  What I've done wrong ?

  


  System info :

  


  

  • OS : Windows 10 x64

  


  • GPU : Nvidia GeForce 960M (installed the latest driver and CUDA) and should be supported by CUDA

  


  • latest youtube-dl and ffmpeg build

  


  


  The ffmpeg -encoders output contains 265 codecs, so they also should be supported :

  


  V..... libx265              libx265 H.265 / HEVC (codec hevc)
V..... nvenc_hevc           NVIDIA NVENC hevc encoder (codec hevc)
V..... hevc_amf             AMD AMF HEVC encoder (codec hevc)
V..... hevc_nvenc           NVIDIA NVENC hevc encoder (codec hevc)
V..... hevc_qsv             HEVC (Intel Quick Sync Video acceleration) (codec hevc)


  


• Recording multiple cameras using gstreamer/ffmpeg, encoding problems

  11 février 2021, par kepitto

  I have an incoming UDP-MJPEG-Stream of 4-10 Kameras and I need to live-store these in a way to be able to store atleast a few days of data, preferably up to a week atleast. I'm testing the setup with 1 camera right now and have following issues :

  


  If I were to save the incoming stream via matroska without transcoding it I receive : 171,9GB/day, which is way too much if I want to run this with 10 cameras.
  
So I've looked a lot into different codecs and compared a few (x264, x265, vp8, vp9) and also checked the CPU usage and realized this won't be managable without Hardware Acceleration if I want to run 10 cameras on an embedded device. My target device will probably have H.264 and maybe VP8 encoding/decoding

  


  Which leads me to my first questions, how capable are hardware encoder/decoder ? Will I be able to transcode 10 camera-streams at the same time (raspberry pi h.264 hardware accel for example ; i'll use a more capable device for the final implementation) ? Maybe store chunks and transcode the files instead of stream ?

  


  gst-launch-1.0 udpsrc port=52000 do-timestamp=true caps=image/jpeg,framerate=30/1 blocksize=4096 ! queue ! jpegparse ! queue ! jpegdec ! queue ! videoconvert ! x265enc ! queue ! h265parse ! queue ! matroskamux ! filesink location=x.mkv  


  


  This pipeline works, but the file is 20% bigger than the same file with x264enc (without parse before mux-parsing shouldn't make a difference though).
  
As a comparison on ffmpeg I get a file which is 11 times smaller in size with following command :

  


  ffmpeg -framerate 30 -i udp -pix_fmt yuv420p -vcodec libx265 out.mkv


  


  Also vp8/vp9 encoding doesn't work on gstreamer at all. I use the same pipeline as above with vp8enc/vp9enc instead. I get videos which are too short and with a lot of random frames. Maybe performanceissue ?

  


  On ffmpeg I can capture and transcode to vp8, but vp9 doesn't work either. (Frames drop too low followed by errors, most likely performance issue)

  


  Does live-transcoding make sense and is it achievable on an embedded device ?

  


• FFMPEG, H264 Encoding : If frame size exceeds level limit, does it lead to video encoding failed ?

  4 février 2021, par Nafia Mahjabin

  I want to reencode an mp4 file with h264 encoding.
Run the following command :

  


  


  ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -f mp4 -vcodec h264 -profile:v baseline -level 3.0 -pix_fmt yuv420p -color_range 2 -vf scale=1080:1920 -acodec aac -async 1 output.mp4

  


  


  Process fails saying Video encoding failed.

  I tried to figure out the reason for fail. I'm guessing from error message from the line frame MB size (68x120) > level limit (1620), frame size exceeds h264 level limits may be the issue.

  


  Is it the issue ? if it is, what's the solution for this ? if it's not, what went wrong ?

  


  Can somebody help please ? Thank you !
