• Recording usb cam on raspberry pi with ffmpeg - usb troubleshooting

  18 septembre 2017, par Hwy2Hell

  I want to save video from an external usb cam on the raspberry pi 3. In order to avoid voltage drop issues, I use the offical raspberry power supply (2.5 Amp) and connected all usb devices by a separetely powered usb hub :

  pi@raspi:~/appdev/ffmpeg $ lsusb
  
  Bus 001 Device 037: ID 046d:09a1 Logitech, Inc. QuickCam Communicate MP/S5500
  
  Bus 001 Device 036: ID 046d:c03f Logitech, Inc. M-BT85 [UltraX Optical Mouse]
  
  Bus 001 Device 035: ID 04d9:1503 Holtek Semiconductor, Inc. Shortboard Lefty
  
  Bus 001 Device 012: ID 1a40:0101 Terminus Technology Inc. 4-Port HUB
  
  Bus 001 Device 003: ID 0424:ec00 Standard Microsystems Corp. SMSC9512/9514 Fast Ethernet Adapter
  
  Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0424:9514 Standard Microsystems Corp. 
  
  Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub

  When I try to test the functionality by running the following bash script (snippet) :

  function capture
  
  {
  
      capfile=$(date +%F_%Hh%Mm%Ss)
  
      echo saving to $wdir/$capfile.mp4
  
      echo $PATH
  
      ffmpeg -video_size 320x240 -i /dev/video0 \
  
      -vf drawtext="fontsize=18:x=10:y=220:fontcolor=red:\
  
      fontfile=/usr/share/fonts/truetype/dejavu/DejaVuSans.ttf:\
  
      text=%{localtime}" -t 10 $wdir/$capfile.mp4
  
      # change -t to 3600 = 1h
  
  }
  
  
  
  for i in $(seq 1 10)
  
  do
  
      echo
  
      echo Pass $i ...
  
      capture
  
  done

  After a few loop-runs I always see device errors :

  Pass 5 ...

  Has anybody experienced similar problems and can provide a fix for it ?

  What tools can I use to troubleshoot the usb communication on the pi ?

• Generate video with ffmpeg to play using JavaFX

  25 mai 2015, par taskman

  People always say to post a new question so I am posting a new question that relates to Generate video with ffmpeg for JavaFX MediaPlayer

  The images I use can be downloaded from here https://www.dropbox.com/s/mt8yblhfif113sy/temp.zip?dl=0. It is a 2.2GB zip file with 18k images, still uploading, might take some time. The images are slices of a 3D object. I need to display images every 10ms to 20ms. I tried it with Java, but just couldn’t get faster than 30ms+ so now I am trying to generate a video that will display images as fast as I want without worrying about memory or CPU power.

  People will be using my software to slice the objects and then generate the videos to be played later one. The player might run on a cheap laptop or might run on a Raspberry Pi. I need to make sure the slicer will work on any OS and that people don’t need to install too much extra stuff to make it work. It would be best if I can just include everything that is needed in the download of the app.

  I also posted here
  https://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=2474&sid=4f7a752f909202fbec19afc9edaf418c

  I am using Windows 7 and I have VLC installed. The ffmpeg version is

  ffmpeg version N-72276-gf99fed7 Copyright (c) 2000-2015 the FFmpeg developers
  
    built with gcc 4.9.2 (GCC)

  I also tried the command lines posted on the linked question

  This line produced the video and JavaFX didn’t have any errors

  ffmpeg -f image2 -r 50 -i "Mandibular hollow 1 micron.gizmofill%d.gizmoslice.jpg" -s 1638x1004 -vcodec mpeg4 -qscale 1 -f mp4 Timelapse.mp4

  

  This line also produced the video, but JavaFX had an error : "Caused by : MediaException : MEDIA_UNSUPPORTED : Unrecognized file signature !"

  ffmpeg -f image2 -r 50 -i "Mandibular hollow 1 micron.gizmofill%d.gizmoslice.jpg" -s 1920x1080 -vcodec mpeg4 -qscale 1 Timelapse.avi

  

  I also tried this two pass encoding I believe. It produced the video, but didn’t play

  ffmpeg -r 50 -i "Mandibular hollow 1 micron.gizmofill%d.gizmoslice.jpg" -s 1638x1004 -r 50 -b:v 1550k -bt 1792k -vcodec libx264 -pass 1 -an combined50.flv && ffmpeg -y -r 50 -i "Mandibular hollow 1 micron.gizmofill%d.gizmoslice.jpg" -s 1638x1004 -r 50 -b:v 1550k -bt 1792k -vcodec libx264 -pass 2 -vpre hq -acodec libfaac -ab 128k combined50.flv

  This is my JavaFX code. As you can see I tried the Oracle video and that worked fine.

  public class FXMLDocumentController implements Initializable {
  
  
  
      @FXML
  
      private Label label;

      private void handleButtonAction(ActionEvent event) {
  
          System.out.println("You clicked me!");

          MediaPlayer mediaPlayer = new MediaPlayer(media);
  
          mediaPlayer.setAutoPlay(true);
  
  
  
          mediaPlayer.play();
  
          mediaView.setMediaPlayer(mediaPlayer);
  
          label.setText("Hello World!");
  
          System.out.println(mediaPlayer.isAutoPlay());

• Evolution of Multimedia Fiefdoms

  1er octobre 2014, par Multimedia Mike — General

  I want to examine how multimedia fiefdoms have risen and fallen through the years.

  
  
  

  Back in the day, the multimedia fiefdoms were built around the formats put forth by competing companies : there was Microsoft/WMV, Apple/MOV, and Real/RM as the big contenders. On2 always wanted to be a player in this arena but could never quite catch a break. A few brave contenders held the line for open source and also for the power users who desired one application that could handle everything (my original motivation for wanting to get into multimedia hacking).

  The computer desktop was the battleground for internet-based media stream. Whatever happened to those days ? Actually, if memory serves, Flash-based video streaming stepped on all of them.

  Over the last 6-7 years, the battleground has expanded to cover mobile devices, where Flash’s impact has… lessened. During this time, multimedia technology pretty well standardized on a particular stack, namely, the MPEG (MP4/H.264/AAC) stack.

  The belligerents in this war tried for years to effectively penetrate new territory, namely, the living room where the television lived. This had been slowgoing for years due to various user interface and content issues, but steadily improved.

  Last April, Amazon announced their entry into the set-top box market with the Fire TV. That was when it suddenly crystallized for me that the multimedia ecosystem has radically shifted. Now, the multimedia fiefdoms revolve around access to content via streaming services.

  Off the top of my head, here are some of the fiefdoms these days (fiefdoms I have experience using) :

  • Netflix (subscription streaming)
  • Amazon (subscription, rental, and purchased streaming)
  • Hulu Plus (subscription streaming)
  • Apple (rental and purchased media)

  I checked some results on Can I Stream.It ? (which I refer to often) and found a bunch more streaming fiefdoms such as Google (both Play and YouTube, which are separate services), Sony, Xbox 360, Crackle, Redbox Instant, Vudu, Target Ticket, Epix, Sony, SnagFilms, and XFINITY StreamPix. And surely, these are probably just services available in the United States ; I know other geographical regions have their own fiefdoms.

  What happened ?

  When I got into multimedia hacking, there were all these disparate, competing ecosystems. As a consumer, I didn’t care where the media came from, I just wanted to play it. That’s what inspired me to work on open source multimedia projects. Now I realize that I have the same problem 10-15 years later : there are multiple competing ecosystems. I might subscribe to fiefdoms X and Y, but am frustrated to learn that something I’d like to watch is only available through fiefdom Z. Very few of these fiefdoms can be penetrated using open source technology.

  I’m not really sure about the point about this whole post. Multimedia technology seems really standardized these days. But that’s probably just my perspective because I have spent way too long focusing on a few areas of multimedia technology such as audio and video coding. It’s interesting that all these services probably leverage the same limited number of codecs. Their differentiation comes from the catalog of content that each is able to license for streaming. There are different problems to solve in the multimedia arena now.
