Getting shifted timestamps when encoding a fragmented h264 mp4 with ffmpeg
14 septembre 2022, par Martin CastinI am trying to encode a fragmented h264 mp4 with ffmpeg. I tried the following command :


ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -movflags +frag_keyframe+separate_moof+omit_tfhd_offset+empty_moov output.mp4



It does give me a fragmented mp4 but the timestamps of the frames seem to be shifted by 0.04s when I read the video with mpv. The first frame has a timestamp of 0.04s instead of 0s, as in the input video (1920x1080, 50 fps). I encountered the problem both with ffmpeg 5.1 and ffmpeg 3.4.11.


I tried to add several flags, as
-avoid_negative_ts make_zero
or-copyts -output_ts_offset -0.04
, but it did not help.

I am also trying to achieve this using the ffmpeg libav libraries in C++ but did not get to better result. Here are the code fragments I used.


avformat_alloc_output_context2(&oc, NULL, NULL, filename);

 if (oc_->oformat->flags & AVFMT_GLOBALHEADER) {
 codecCtx_->flags |= AV_CODEC_FLAG_GLOBAL_HEADER;
 }
...
 AVDictionary* opts = NULL;

 av_dict_set(&opts, "movflags", "frag_keyframe+separate_moof+omit_tfhd_offset+empty_moov", 0);

 ret = avformat_write_header(oc_, &opts);



Do you know how to avoid this behaviour of shifted timestamps for fragmented mp4, either with ffmpeg or libav ?


Edit : example videos and complete code example


I also tried with the following ffmpeg build

and with the sintel trailer as input video, which is 24fps, and I thus get a timeshift of 83ms. Here is the output I get.


Here is a complete code example, slightly adapted from the
muxing.c
ffmpeg example (audio removed and adapted for c++). This code shows exactly the same problem.

You can just comment the line 383 (that is calling
av_dict_set
) to switch back to a not fragmented mp4 that will not have the timestamp shift.

Audio is lost on transcoding from DTS to AAC
18 octobre 2015, par cirkoOn a Synology drive, I’m trying to transcode audio in an .MKV file from DTS to AAC using the native ffmpeg encoder. But without any error message (at least I don’t recognize any here), the audio stream is just missing in the output files. I tried it on several different files, all with the same result, leading to the conclusion that either I’m unable to see the error or something’s wrong with FFMPEG. I used the standard FFMPEG package provided with OPKG.
This is the output I usually get :CirkosDaten> ffmpeg -i encodertest.mkv -map 0 -c:v copy -c:s copy -c:a aac
-strict experimental output.mkv

Codec AVOption b (set bitrate (in bits/s)) specified for output file #0
(output.mkv) has not been used for any stream. The most likely reason is
either wrong type (e.g. a video option with no video streams) or that it is
a private option of some encoder which was not actually used for any stream.This indicates that somehow the 5.1, 48kHz DTS stream isn’t considered as an input. Why ?
EDIT : Is it possible that DTS decoding is turned off somewhere here ? I reckoned maybe that’s why I get no errors. But I didn’t see any obvious option for that in the output.

ffmpeg converting video to images while video file is being written
15 octobre 2015, par user3398227Hopefully an easy question for an ffmpeg expert !
I’m currently converting large (+6GB) mpeg video into an image sequence - which is working well using the below ffmpeg command :
ffmpeg -i "input.mpeg" -vf - fps=fps=2 -f image2 -qscale 1 -s 1026x768 "output%6d.jpg"
however i have to wait for the file to finish being written to disk before i kick off ffmpeg - but this takes a good hour or so to finish writing, but what i’ve noticed is that ffmpeg can start reading the file while its being written to disk - the only snag here is it gets to the end of the file and stops before the file has finished being written...
Question is, is there a way that ffmpeg can convert to an image sequence at the same pace the video is being written (and not exit out ?)... or know to wait for the next frame to be written from the source. (unfortunately the input doesn’t support streaming, I only get a network drive and file to work off.. ) I thought i read somewhere that ffmpeg can process at the video frame rate but cant seem to find this command for love or money in the doco !!
Thanks !
