• how to record camera to file while encoding stream to v4l2-loopback device ?

  3 février 2021, par Jonatas

  So i have this logitech c920 camera 1920x1080 h264 capable and i would like to record the camera to file while at the same time copying/encoding the stream to a loopback device so the camera can be still used by other apps.
here is the code i got so far :

  


  ffmpeg -report -f alsa -i hw:CARD=C920,DEV=0 -r 1500 -s 1920x1080 -f v4l2 -vcodec h264 \
-i /dev/video1 -copyinkf -vcodec copy /home/jonatas/Videos/2021-02-01185658.mp4 \ 
-f v4l2 /dev/video0


  


  error :

  


  Unknown V4L2 pixel format equivalent for yuvj420p
Could not write header for output file #1 (incorrect codec parameters ?): Invalid argument
Error initializing output stream 1:0 -- 


  


  some info on /dev/video0(loopbackdevice) :

  if i remove the 3rd line of my script the camera records the stream of video and sound to the file flawless. i tried diferent things for the 3rd line as -vcodec and something to do with pix-format flag to YUYV without success.
Is it possible to achieve this with just one ffmpeg process ?
Will the sound be made available to the loopback device also ?
How to transcode it to the proper pixel format used by loopback device ?

  


• How to record the bluetooth audio from my phone in my pc using ffmpeg ?

  12 septembre 2023, par Juan Inzunza

  I have my phone connected via Bluetooth to my PC and playing audio in my phone so i can hear that audio in my pc and i was trying to record that audio in my PC using ffmpeg this is the command i got so far

  


  ffmpeg -f pulse -ac 1 -ar 44100 -i alsa_input.usb-KTMicro_KT_USB_Audio_2021-06-25-0000-0000-0000--00.mono-fallback -f pulse -ac 2 -ar 44100 -i bluez_source.84_5F_04_75_B9_F6.a2dp_source -filter_complex amix=inputs=2 -i /dev/video5 -s 640x480 -vcodec libx264 -preset veryfast -crf 18 -acodec libmp3lame -ar 44100 -q:a 1 -pix_fmt yuv420p -aq 0 ~/Videos


  


  "bluez_source.84_5F_04_75_B9_F6.a2dp_source" is the name of the bluetooth audio source (my phone) but the problem is, if i am not playing audio on the device, just disappears when i execute this command "pactl list sources", and appears again when i play audio, so is listed when i run "pactl list sources" and i have to keep the phone playing audio so ffmpeg recognizes that device and not fail when executed.

  


  Finally my question is how can i keep that device in running state or suspended state without need to play audio all the time.

  The following script below works great with that system-wide installation :

  Though this one doesn’t - even the system Python can’t read videos for some reason...

  import cv2
  
  
  
  video_capture = cv2.VideoCapture(0)
  
  ret, frame = video_capture.read()
  
  print ret  # always False

  but I want it to work with my virtualenv. So I recompiled OpenCV with :

  cmake -D WITH_QT=ON \
  
      -D WITH_OPENGL=ON \
  
      -D FORCE_VTK=ON \
  
      -D WITH_TBB=ON \
  
      -D WITH_GDAL=ON \
  
      -D WITH_XINE=ON \
  
      -D BUILD_EXAMPLES=ON \
  
      -D INSTALL_PYTHON_EXAMPLES=ON \
  
      -D ENABLE_PRECOMPILED_HEADERS=OFF \
  
      -D BUILD_NEW_PYTHON_SUPPORT=ON \
  
      -D OPENCV_EXTRA_MODULES_PATH=/home/me/code/myproject/opencv_contrib-3.2.0/modules \
  
      -D PYTHON_EXECUTABLE=~/.envs/myenv/bin/python \
  
      ..
  
  
  
  make -j4
  
  sudo make install
  
  sudo ldconfig

  Here’s the CMake log :

  Unfortunately, while this works and I can import cv2 in the shell, it cannot read video using the above script, probably due to incorrect compilation or linking of ffmpeg ? The confusing part is the system-wide installation of OpenCV works fine, even without ffmpeg installed !

  What am I doing wrong ? How can I get OpenCV working with a virtualenv ?

  ====

  EDIT : Running the C++ video writing example has this result :

  $ cd /home/me/code/myproject/OpenCV-3.2.0/build/bin
  
  $ ./cpp-tutorial-video-write ../../samples/data/vtest.avi R Y
  
  ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  
  This program shows how to write video files.
  
  You can extract the R or G or B color channel of the input video.
  
  Usage:
  
  ./video-write  [ R | G | B] [Y | N]
