• FFMpeg fails to detect input stream when outputting to pipe's stdout

  27 septembre 2020, par La bla bla

  We have h264 frames as individual files, we read them to a python wrapper and piping them to ffmpeg.

  


  ffmpeg subprocess is launched using

  


      command = ["ffmpeg",
               "-hide_banner",
               "-vcodec", "h264",
               "-i", "pipe:0",
               "-video_size", "5120x3072",
               '-an', '-sn',  # we want to disable audio processing (there is no audio)
               '-pix_fmt', 'bgr24',
               "-vcodec", "rawvideo",
               '-f', 'image2pipe', '-']
    pipe = sp.Popen(command, stdin=sp.PIPE, stdout=sp.PIPE, bufsize=10 ** 8)


  


  Our goal is to use ffmpeg to convert the individual h264 frames into raw BGR data that we can manipulate using OpenCV.

  


  the files are read in a background thread and piped using

  


      ...
    for path in files:
        with open(path, "rb") as f:
            data = f.read()
            pipe.stdin.write(data)


  


  When we try to read the ffmpeg's output pipe using

  


      while True:
        # Capture frame-by-frame
        raw_image = pipe.stdout.read(width * height * 3)


  


  we get

  


  [h264 @ 0x1c31000] Could not find codec parameters for stream 0 (Video: h264, none): unspecified size
Consider increasing the value for the 'analyzeduration' and 'probesize' options
pipe:0: could not find codec parameters
Input #0, h264, from 'pipe:0':
  Duration: N/A, bitrate: N/A
    Stream #0:0: Video: h264, none, 25 tbr, 1200k tbn, 50 tbc
Output #0, image2pipe, to 'pipe:':
Output file #0 does not contain any stream


  


  However, when I change the sp.Popen command to be

  


  
    f = open('ffmpeg_output.log', 'wt')
    pipe = sp.Popen(command, stdin=sp.PIPE, stdout=f, bufsize=10 ** 8) # Note: the stdout is not f


  


  we get the gibberish (i.e, binary data) in the ffmpeg_output.log file, and the console reads

  


  [h264 @ 0xf20000] Stream #0: not enough frames to estimate rate; consider increasing probesize

  Why does ffmpeg cares if its stdout is a file or a pipe ?

  


• How to find Video Codec for file ffmpeg

  10 janvier 2023, par iggy12345

  I'm working with HLS streams of MPEGTS that contains H264.

  


  When I look at the HLS Playlist given by the server, it specifies that the codec is avc1.77.30,mp4a.40.2

  


  Here's a snippet from the file

  


  #EXTM3U
#EXT-X-VERSION:3
#EXT-X-STREAM-INF:PROGRAM-ID=1,BANDWIDTH=1787760,CODECS="avc1.77.30,mp4a.40.2",RESOLUTION=640x360


  


  Is there a way I can retrieve this information from ffmpeg ?

  


  I found a question that was asked before How to determine video codec of a file with FFmpeg

  


  But the closest I can seem to get to any of their outputs is h264 and not avc1.77.30

  


  The playlist contains 7 MPEG-TS files, I've tried using ffprobe on both the playlist file, as well as the individual video files, but they both seem to report the parser, not the encoding of the actual video.

  avcodec/aacdec : fix parsing of dual mono files
  Dual mono files report a channel count of 2 with each individual channel in its
  
  own SCE, instead of both in a single CPE as is the case with standard stereo.
  
  This commit handles this non default channel configuration scenario.
  Fixes ticket #1614
