Automated installation script of MediaSPIP
25 avril 2011, parTo overcome the difficulties mainly due to the installation of server side software dependencies, an "all-in-one" installation script written in bash was created to facilitate this step on a server with a compatible Linux distribution.
You must have access to your server via SSH and a root account to use it, which will install the dependencies. Contact your provider if you do not have that.
The documentation of the use of this installation script is available here.

[ffmpeg][asyncio] main process is held by ffmpeg command
5 octobre 2024, par Michael LopezI created a python program for handling my Arlo Camera. To do that I have been using the

My issue is about the ffmpeg command which is hold the main process (or the event loop) when it runs, blocking the events coming from the pyaarlo library. The state of the camera continues to work with the good information.


I tried lot of things, without asyncio, with multiprocessing, with subprocess, ... the behavior is always the same. In some cases, I received the idle event after the key interrupt.


Another information :


- 

- When I stop the active stream, the event is not received but when I start the stream just after, that event is received.
- When I run the same ffmpeg command but with a local long video file, everything is Ok. So, it why I guess that the ffmpeg command is impacting the main process.






I succedeed in running the ffmpeg command with rtsp url stream but without a loop event monitoring :


import asyncio
import signal
import sys
import os

async def run_infinite_command():
 # Start a simple HTTP server as our "infinite" command
 url = "rstp://localhost:8554/camera1/stream" # it is a fake url
 ffmpeg_cmd = [
 "ffmpeg", "-re", "-i", url,
 "-c:v", "libx264", "-preset", "veryfast",
 "-c:a", "copy",
 "-f", "hls", "-hls_time", "4", "-hls_list_size", "10",
 "-hls_flags", "delete_segments", "/tmp/output.m3u8"
 ]
 
 process = await asyncio.create_subprocess_exec(
 *ffmpeg_cmd,
 stdout=asyncio.subprocess.DEVNULL,
 stderr=asyncio.subprocess.DEVNULL
 )
 
 print(f"Started HTTP server with PID: {process.pid}")
 return process

async def main():
 # Start the infinite command
 process = await run_infinite_command()

 # Run the main loop for a few seconds
 for i in range(10):
 print(f"Main loop iteration {i+1}")
 await asyncio.sleep(1)

 # Stop the infinite command
 print("Stopping the HTTP server...")
 if sys.platform == "win32":
 # On Windows, we need to use CTRL_C_EVENT
 os.kill(process.pid, signal.CTRL_C_EVENT)
 else:
 # On Unix-like systems, we can use SIGTERM
 process.send_signal(signal.SIGTERM)

 # Wait for the process to finish
 try:
 await asyncio.wait_for(process.wait(), timeout=5.0)
 print("HTTP server stopped successfully")
 except asyncio.TimeoutError:
 print("HTTP server didn't stop in time, forcefully terminating")
 process.kill()

 print("Program finished")

if __name__ == "__main__":
 asyncio.run(main())



With this script, the ffmpeg command is correctly launched and terminated after the for loop.

FFmpeg what is the correct way to manually write silence through pipe:0 ?
19 juillet 2023, par Bohdan PetrenkoI have an ffmpeg process running with this parameters :


ffmpeg -y -f s16le -ac {Channels} -ar 48000 -re -use_wallclock_as_timestamps true -i pipe:0 -f segment -segment_time {_segmentSize} -segment_list \"{_segmentListPath}\" -segment_format mp3 -segment_wrap 2 -reset_timestamps 0 -af aresample=async=1 \"{_filePath}\"



I also have a
DateTimeOffset
which represents the time when the recording was started. When an FFMpeg process is created, I need to add some some amount of silence that equals to the delay between current time and when the recording was started. This delay may be bigger than ffmpeg segments, so I calculate it relatively to the time when last ffmpeg segment should begin.
I store silence in a static byte array with length of two ffmpeg segments :

_silenceBuffer ??= new byte[_segmentSize * 2 * Channels * SampleRate * 2];



I tried two ways of writing silence :


First code I tried is this :


var delay = DateTimeOffset.UtcNow - RecordingStartDateTime;

var time = CalculateRelativeMilliseconds(delay.TotalMilliseconds); // this returns time based on current segment. It works fine.

var amount = (int)(time * 2 * Channels * SampleRate / 1000);

WriterStream.Write(_silenceBuffer, 0, amount);



As the result, I have a very loud noise everywhere in output from ffmpeg. It brokes audio, so this way doesn't work for me.


Second code I tried is this :


var delay = DateTimeOffset.UtcNow - RecordingStartDateTime;

var time = CalculateRelativeMilliseconds(delay.TotalMilliseconds); // this returns time based on current segment. It works fine.

var amount = (int)time * 2 * Channels * SampleRate / 1000;

WriterStream.Write(_silenceBuffer, 0, amount);



Difference between first and second code is that now I cast only
time
toint
type, not the result of the whole expression. But it also doesn't work. This time at the beginning I have no silence I wrote, the recording begins with voice data I piped after writing silence. But if I use this ffmpeg command :

ffmpeg -y -f s16le -ac {Channels} -ar 48000 -i pipe:0 -f segment -segment_time {_segmentSize} -segment_list \"{_segmentListPath}\" -segment_format mp3 -segment_wrap 2 -reset_timestamps 0 \"{_filePath}\"



Then it works as expected. Recording begins with silence what I need, and then goes voice data I piped.


So, how can I manually calculate and write silence to my ffmpeg instance ? Is there some universal way of writing and calculating silence that will work with any ffmpeg command ? I don`t want to use filters and other ffmpeg instances for offsetting piped voice data, because I do it only once per session. I think that I can write silence with byte arrays. I look forward to any suggestions.
