• Increased File Size When Converting MP4 to WebM using FFmpeg

  23 décembre 2024, par kimgijeong

  I am using FFmpeg to convert MP4 to WebM with the following command :

  


  ffmpeg -y -hide_banner -nostats \
-f mov,mp4,m4a,3gp,3g2,mj2 -i "http://127.0.0.1:80/lotteon-low-bitrate.mp4" \
-threads auto -f webm -acodec libopus -b:a 96.059k -vcodec libsvtav1 -preset 11 -pix_fmt yuv420p \
-vf "scale='min(-1, iw)':'min(-1,ih)':force_original_aspect_ratio=decrease,crop=trunc(iw/2)*2:trunc(ih/2)*2" \
"/usr/local/m2/m2temp/xcdrtmp/2052_1.webm"


  


  However, the output webm file size is larger than the source MP4 file. For example :

  


  


  • Source MP4 : 4.6 MB (bit rate : 994,053 bps)

    


  


  • Output WebM : 16 MB (bit rate : 3,902,037 bps)

    


  


  


  I know SVT-AV1 encoder defaults to CRF mode. Due to not specifying the bitrate explicitly, the SVT-AV1 encoder automatically sets the bit_rate. It appears that the encoder is setting it to a much higher value (3,323,104 bps), causing the increase in file size compared to the source MP4 (994,053 bps). Here are the methods i tried to reduce the WebM file size compared to the source MP4 :

  


  

  1. -b:v 994k

  


  


  I tried to match the target bitrate with the source MP4's bitrate to reduce the output size, but encountered the following error :

  


  Svt[error]: Instance 1: Force key frames is not supported for VBR mode Last message r
epeated 2 times [libsvtav1 @ 0x239dd100] Error setting encoder parameters: bad parameter (0x80001005)


  


  Looking at the official documentation, this mode change (from CRF to VBR when setting a target bitrate) appears to be expected behavior. However, the error is puzzling since I haven't set any force keyframe parameters in the FFmpeg command.

  


  

  2. svtav1-params "mbr=994k"

  


  


  The second method i tried was using the svtav1-params "mbr=994k" option to set the maxrate while maintaining CRF mode This method showed some improvement, but the output file size was still larger than the source MP4.

  


  

  • Output WebM : 5MB (bit rate : 1,209,877 bps)

  


  


  The more critical reason why we can't adopt the second method (using svtav1-params "mbr=994k") is that even for the same MP4 source file, the output file size varies slightly with each encoding.

  


  

  3. -b:v 994k -svtav1-params “rc=2:pred-struct=1”(CBR, low delay)

  


  


  The final method I tried was setting the target bitrate while using CBR (Constant Bit Rate) and low-delay mode The default value for pred-structure is 2(random access), but I had to use low-delay mode due to the following error :

  


  Svt[error]: CBR Rate control is currently not supported for SVT_AV1_PRED_RANDOM_ACCESS, use VBR mode


  


  This way was the only approach among those i tried that successfully reduced the output size.

  


  

  • Output WebM : 4.3MB (bit rate : 1,032,373 bps)

  


  


  In summary, I have three questions about this MP4 to WebM conversion issue :

  


  


  1. When setting the target bitrate with -b:v 994k, the switch to VBR mode is expected behavior. However, why does the force keyframe error occur when we haven't explicitly set any force keyframe parameters ?

     


  


  2. Why does the output WebM file size fluctuate when setting maxrate either through -maxrate or svtav1-params "mbr=994k", even when using the same MP4 source file ?

     


  


  3. Besides using -b:v 994k -svtav1-params "rc=2:pred-struct=1" (CBR with low delay), are there any other methods that can guarantee a WebM output size smaller than the source MP4 when converting from MP4 to WebM ?

     


  


  


  I am using a recent version of the SVT-AV1 codec :

  


  Svt[info]: SVT [version]:       SVT-AV1 Encoder Lib 58146ca
Svt[info]: SVT [build]  :       GCC 11.5.0 20240719 (Red Hat 11.5.0-2)   64 bit

• I have an MJPEG file decoded with the Intel® IPP JPEG encoder [8.1.42291], how can I convert it to MP4 using ffmpeg ? [closed]

  8 mars 2024, par Renan Aragão

  When trying to convert the MJPEG file with ffmpeg, it gives the following error : Output file #0 does not contain any stream.

  


  This is the complete output :

  I try using ipp in python and dotnet, but idon't found sample code. I need convert MJPEG Intel IPP to mp4.

  


• ffmpeg does not respect the -t option and keeps recording [closed]

  21 juillet 2024, par Naman Muley

  The command I use is :

  


   ffmpeg -f avfoundation -framerate 30 -i "2:0" -vcodec libx264 -pix_fmt yuv420p -acodec aac -strict experimental -t 10 ./recordings/tmp.mp4


  


  With the above command, I expect the recording output to stop after 10 seconds. But the ffmpeg command keeps running and does not stop.
Feels like I am missing something basic but I have now spent 3 hours debugging and cannot figure out why.

  


  Usecase :
I need to record my screen's video as well as audio for a specifiable amount of time.

  


  According to the manual, putting -t before -i limits the input recording and putting it after -i limits the output recording. I believe after the -i is the correct way to go.

  • I tried using different codecs and pix_fmt options.

  


  • Tried moving the -t before the -i option and after. no change.

  


  


  Works with only audio input :
The below command that records only the audio works out just fine.

  


  ffmpeg -f avfoundation -i ":0" -acodec libmp3lame -t 10 ./recordings/tmp.mp3
