• FFmpeg converting from video to audio missing duration

  10 December 2014, by Jakemmarsh

  I’m attempting to load YouTube videos via their direct video URL (retrieved using ytdl-core). I load them using the request library. I then pipe the result to a stream, which is used as the input to ffmpeg (via fluent-ffmpeg). The code looks something like this:

  var getAudioStream = function(req, res) {
  
      var requestUrl = 'http://youtube.com/watch?v=' + req.params.videoId;
  
      var audioStream = new PassThrough();
  
      var videoUrl;
  
  
  
      ytdl.getInfo(requestUrl, { downloadURL: true }, function(err, info) {
  
        res.setHeader('Content-Type', 'audio/x-wav');
  
        res.setHeader('Accept-Ranges', 'bytes');
  
        videoUrl = info.formats ? info.formats[0].url : '';
  
        request(videoUrl).pipe(audioStream);
  
  
  
        ffmpeg()
  
          .input(audioStream)
  
          .outputOptions('-map_metadata 0')
  
          .format('wav')
  
          .pipe(res);
  
      });
  
    };

  This actually works just fine, and the frontend successfully receives just the audio in WAV format and is playable. However, the audio is missing any information about its size or duration (and all other metadata). This also makes it unseekable.

  I’m assuming this is lost somewhere during the ffmpeg stage, because if I load the video directly via the URL passed to request it loads and plays fine, and has a set duration/is seekable. Any ideas?

• ffmpeg conversion x264 [error]: malloc of size 769152 failed

  18 December 2014, by prashanthp

  I am trying to convert video recorded from Android smart watch (.mp4 format) to a format (.mp4) which playable on all browsers. The video recorded from smart watch is not playing in the browsers. so, i’ve used ffmpeg to convert in into a playable mp4 format.

  But sometimes it is showing error as x264 [error]: malloc of size 503008 failed

  What is the reason for this. Sometimes it’s getting converted and sometimes it is showing error .

  Here is the console output.

  When i execute this from shell it is working fine. But when i create a script file and trying to execute that script file from php , it is showing error’s. I increased the memory limit in php, still it is showing error. Also , we are using ZEND framework. Is there any problems with ZEND??
