• How can I increase the performance of this video watermarking call which seems to be only using 6% of my system's CPU ? Currently using ffmpeg

  24 août 2023, par Codemonkey

  I have a php script to add a watermark to an uploaded video, using ffmpeg

  


  shell_exec("ffmpeg -y -i input.mp4 -i watermark.png -filter_complex $filter output.mp4")


  


  The video is 36 seconds long, 33MB and 1080x1920, 24fps. The output video comes in at 8MB, scaled down to 540x960 with a PNG overlaid as a watermark.

  


  The script takes about 3 seconds, averaging 320fps or so. For a one-off this would be ok, but I'm going to be processing hundreds/thousands of these at a time.

  


  I have 128GB of ram and an EPYC 7502p (32cores/64threads), and both input and output files are on NVMe drives.

  


  If I monitor top showing all my cores/threads in another window, with refresh delay set to a variety of things from 0.1 to 2 seconds, I'd guesstimate that this hits about 1/4 of my available threads, at about 25% utilisation each.

  


  So it kind of feels like I COULD see a 16x speed increase if it hit all of them at 100%. That actually wouldn't be ideal, locking up the server of course, but when my CPU is sat at 99% idle 99% of the time, I feel it could do better - it'd be nice to see it hitting at least half the cores or utilising at least 50% of them when it does...

  


  So, is there anything I can change with ffmpeg's config/build or the way I call it ? If this is as good as ffmpeg can do, are there better tools for the job ?

  


  Thank you

  EDIT :

  


  A few things I've learnt since posting :

  


  

  • -c:v libx264 -preset ultrafast - marginal help

  


  • nice -n -10 - marginal help (changing to -20 is makes negligible difference)

  


  • -c:a copy - significant help, which I found surprising

  


  


  FPS up from 320 to 540 using those 3 combined. I still feel there should be significantly more gains somewhere though...

• Transcode WEBM to RTMP

  7 avril 2024, par Justin White

  Summary

  


  My goal is to take a webcam stream from the browser and feed it into a program called Restreamer that takes in an RTMP stream.

  


  I've deduced that the browser Recording API produces Blobs that can be saved as WEBM.

  


  In order to stream the WEBM content to Restreamer I am attempting to use FFmpeg. I've read that forcing FLV format is required but otherwise all of the arguments are Greek to me. I've been unable to find a comparable topic where someone has tried to go from WEBM to RTMP. I have found examples of going the other direction, but reversing the FFmpeg command proved unfruitful.

  


  Saving to FLV works fine. Using the following command, I am able to transcode a WEBM file to FLV and play it on VLC :
  
ffmpeg -i ~/big-buck-bunny_trailer.webm -f flv out.flv

  


  However, if instead of outputting to a file I pass it to RTMP I get the following output :
  
ffmpeg -i ~/Downloads/big-buck-bunny_trailer.webm -f flv "rtmp://example.com/live"

  There are several interesting rabbit holes to follow here, but after following all of them I've come up with nothing.

  


  • HandShake: client signature does not match! :
  
More of a warning than an error, I assumed because I was going from "WEBM -> FLV" instead of the more traditional "MP4 -> FLV".

  


  • av_interleaved_write_frame(): Operation not permitted :
  
I found several issues on this. One of them calling it a storage issue, the other calling it a file permissions issue. I have plenty of disk space and have tried setting the input file to 777 permissions. However, the examples I've found on it being a file permissions issue all deal with outputting to a file rather than to an an RTMP IP.

  


  • Failed to update header with correct duration :
  
Advice I found was to add -flvflags no_duration_filesize to the command, which does suppress both "Failed to update..." errors, but does not fix the over-arching issue.

  


  What I've Tried

  


  • Multi-format transcoding

  


  MP4 to RTMP does work correctly :
  
ffmpeg -i ~/Downloads/big-buck-bunny_trailer.mp4 -f flv "rtmp://example.com/live"
  
Theoretically, I could stream the WEBM to a file, transcode that to an MP4 file, and then transcode that to FLV/RTMP. Sounds awful.

  


  • Pay for a service (Wowza, Flashphoner, api.video, etc)

  


  Unfortunately precisely what I am trying to avoid.

  


  • WebRTC to RTMP ?

  


  WebRTC seems to be a peer-to-peer connection and doesn't play nicely with a server/client scenario.

  


  • WebRTC to other ingest formats

  


  Restreamer also supports incoming streams of HLS, DASH, RTP, RTSP, RTMP, and SRT. However, these all seem to be examples of network sources that would be exposed via an IP URL. I am not sure that FFmpeg can do that.

  


  • Utilizing ffmpeg-wasm instead of CLI

  


  Available here, I thought that maybe by using a browser implementation I may get different results. But no. Not even an error to the console.

  


  • Streaming from OBS

  


  For the record, yes, I have tried streaming from OBS instead of going through FFmpeg and the Restreamer platform itself does work for normal use. I use it often.

  


  Post Script

  


  I've not been able to find any relevant solutions online. I am shocked that streaming from a browser webcam has not been solved 1000 times prior. This is related to a question made 7 years ago but it was not resolved and Flash is no longer an option.

• FFMPEG + HW Acceleration + Kepler GPU Lossless encoding not supported ?

  11 juillet 2022, par user2522885

  I'm curious about FFMPEG and GPU hardware acceleration. My Windows 10 system uses the Asus / nVidia GTX 760 graphics card and Intel i5-2500K CPU. My graphics card claims to be of the Kepler architecture with CUDA 3.0 as shown here.

  


  Instead of going through the hassles of compiling FFMPEG with hw acceleration support i downloaded a pre-compiled binary from here and here.

  


  Next, i tried running a test with hw acceleration options as recommended here :

  


  ffmpeg -y -vsync 0 -hwaccel cuda -hwaccel_output_format cuda -i "input.mkv" -c:a copy -c:v h264_nvenc "output.mp4"


  


  I then received the error message :

  


  [h264_nvenc @ 000001c34eeda8c0] Lossless encoding not supported
[h264_nvenc @ 000001c34eeda8c0] Provided device doesn't support required NVENC features
Error initializing output stream 0:0 — Error while opening encoder for output stream #0:0 - maybe incorrect parameters such as bit_rate, rate, width or height

  


  What am i doing wrong ? For the record i install the CUDA setup file but it made no difference. I am using the latest nVidia drivers.

  


  UPDATE

  


  ffmpeg -h encoder=h264_nvenc
