• FFmpeg takes too much time for generating m3u8 files from a mp4 file (166MB)

  3 août 2021, par Angele

  I am using ffmpeg in nodejs to generate 4 different resolutions (360p, 480p, 720p, 1080p).
I use a AWS lambda for each resolution and the last two take too much time.
I convert a mp4 file which has a size of 166MB into .ts files (with all segments associated)
It takes more than 900 seconds, and that's above the limit for a lambda timeout.

  


  Also my goal is to encode mp4 videos of a maximum size of 4go... and it would be to encode within 900 seconds maximum for each resolution.

  


  I used this website to find some parameters : https://docs.peer5.com/guides/production-ready-hls-vod/

  


  These are my parameters given to ffmpeg :

  


  "ffmpegParams": [
    "-vf",
    "scale=-2:1920",
    "-c:a",
    "aac",
    "-ar",
    "48000",
    "-c:v",
    "h264",
    "-profile:v",
    "main",
    "-crf",
    "20",
    "-sc_threshold",
    "0",
    "-g",
    "48",
    "-keyint_min",
    "48",
    "-hls_time",
    "4",
    "-hls_playlist_type",
    "vod",
    "-b:v",
    "5000k",
    "-maxrate",
    "5350k",
    "-bufsize",
    "7500k",
    "-b:a",
    "192k",
    "-hls_segment_filename",
    "/tmp/1080p_%03d.ts",
    "/tmp/1080p.m3u8"
]


  


  Also I tried with these parameters '-vcodec', 'libx264', '-preset', 'ultrafast' and it made it faster but it is not enough...

  


  Maybe there's something wrong with my command. If someone could maybe enlighten me ? :)

  


  Edit : I ended up using an EC Fargate, perfect for this kind of need.

  


• FFMPEG, want to encode 720x480 and automatically scale to 640x480 or 854x480 as necessary depending on the ratio

  EDIT : See appended notes at the bottom of the post.

  


  Note : all MKVs are sourced from my original Farscape Starburst DVDs, MPEG2.
I've been slowly re-encoding my old TV shows into a crisper format and I have for some shows, mainly extras (but also full episodes) MKVs that are a mix of 4:3 and 16:9. Usually I open the files up in Mediainfo and find out which ones are 4:3, stick them in one folder to encode in 640x480, then the same with 16:9. It's worked fine for the umpteen amount of times I've had to encode my shows.
I would like to try to expedite the process with a single FFMPEG command that can automatically detect if the files are 4:3 or 16:9 and encode them properly to 640x480 or 854x480.

  


  My main FFMPEG commands have been these two, depending on which aspect ratio I'm using :

  


  854x480p

  


  `for i in *.mkv; do ffmpeg -i "$i" -c:v libx264 -profile:v main -level:v 4.0 -crf 20 -c:a copy -map 0 -vf scale=854:480,setdar=16/9 encoded/"${i%.mkv}.mkv"; done


  


  640x480p

  


  `for i in *.mkv; do ffmpeg -i "$i" -c:v libx264 -profile:v main -level:v 4.0 -crf 20 -c:a copy -map 0 -vf scale=640:480,setdar=4/3 encoded/"${i%.mkv}.mkv"; done


  


  These two have worked fine lately since I got away from the extraneous -x264-params nonsense I picked up years ago. Again, I'm trying to streamline. I found this command a day ago and it SEEMED to look PERFECT :

  


  `for i in *.mkv; do ffmpeg -i "$i" -c:v libx264 -profile:v main -level:v 4.0 -crf 20 -c:a copy -map 0 -vf scale=w='if(gt(dar,854/480),min(854,iw*sar),2*trunc(iw*sar*oh/ih/2))':h='if(gt(dar,854/480),2*trunc(ih*ow/iw/sar/2),min(480,ih))' encoded/"${i%.mkv}.mkv"; done


  


  Looks perfect and works great for 640x480. The only problem is that it returns 852x480, every time. I even tried a modification I found where you set the setsar=1 AFTER the scale filter, and it does nothing.

  


  These are the first warnings I get when I try to run the command, with a 16:9 video, but it still completes :

  


  `[Parsed_scale_0 @ 0x56299c22fcc0] Circular references detected for width 'if(gt(dar, 854/480), min(854,iw*sar), 2*trunc(iw*sar*oh/ih/2))' and height 'if(gt(dar, 854/480), 2*trunc(ih*ow/iw/sar/2), min(480,ih))' - possibly invalid.

  It encodes and I can see the resolution it outputs to :

  The next video is a 4:3 video and gives these warnings, however the video still completes, this time the video encodes properly to 640x480 :your text

  TL ;DR

  


  EDIT : The actual problem is that the command is encoding the 16:9 aspect ratio files to 852x480 instead of 854x480. 854x480 is actually what I would like. 640x480 for the 4:3 is fine. Apologies, for the lack of clarification.

  


  Videos encode (from original Farscape Starburst DVDs MPEG2) properly to libx264 640x480 for 4:3 but not to 854x480 for 16:9. 16:9 instead encodes to 852x480, despite what command is telling it to do.

  


  Advice ? Thanks in advance ! Anything to make my re-encoding a little bit less tedious. I've been googling for hours and searching, but nothing seems to make it click. Thank you again !
