• Remuxing MKV to MP4 fails when using -map 0 but works fine when Remuxing MP4 to MKV

  20 septembre 2020, par AppetiteForDestruction

  I have an MKV file that contains 5 streams...

  


  0 : video
  
1 : audio
  
2 : audio
  
3 : text
  
4 : menu
  

  


  I was able to remux the MKV into an MP4 using this command...

  


  > ffmpeg.exe -i input.mp4 -map 0 -c copy -c:s mov_text output.mkv


  


  The resulting output MP4 contains all the streams from the original MKV.

  


  But if I try to remux the output MP4 into an MKV using the same command, but with a different codec for the subtitles (srt) and different file extension (mkv), I get an error. However, if I omit "-map 0" from the command, it works but only ONE of the audio streams get copied to the output MKV file.

  


  ====================
  
 Steps to Reproduce 
  
====================

  


  These two commands work, however, the output MKV only contains ONE of the TWO audio streams...

  


  > ffmpeg.exe -i input.mp4 -c copy -c:s srt output.mkv
> ffmpeg.exe -i input.mp4 -c:v copy -c:a copy -c:s srt output.mkv


  


  When I try to use either of the two commands below using "-map 0" just like I did when I remuxed the original MKV into an MP4, the commands fail and both result in the "Full Output" shown at the bottom...

  


  > ffmpeg.exe -i input.mp4 -map 0 -c copy -c:s srt output.mkv
> ffmpeg.exe -i input.mp4 -map 0 -c:v copy -c:a copy -c:s srt output.mkv


  


  Output Error

  


  Could not write header for output file #0 (incorrect codec parameters ?): Invalid argument


  


  So why would using "-map 0" cause it to fail when I used the exact same command to remux the original MKV into an MP4 ? And why does omitting "-map 0" allow it to work, but obviously doesn't copy both audio streams ? Seems like a BUG to me because why does practically the exact same command work for going from MKV to MP4, but not from MP4 to MKV ?

• FFmpeg continues to process after time specified at "-to"

  4 août 2020, par Yamahabest

  I have a video, where I want to cut a part from the beginning, and from the end. And I want to apply some fade ins/fade outs, and add some text.

  


  So, I came up with the following syntax :

    [video_grey_fade_out][grey_fade_in]overlay[video_grey_fade_out_in];

  I am quite sure this has worked in the past, but now FFmpeg just keeps on processing endlessly. If I then stop the FFmpeg process, and look at the resulting file, I see that the last frame (of the end of the specified period) just keeps on duplicating.

  


  The drop counter in the console output of FFmpeg also starts increasing at the end of the specified period :

  


  frame=  987 fps= 15 q=-1.0 Lsize=   31357kB time=00:00:41.04 bitrate=6259.0kbits/s dup=0 drop=10 speed=0.644x


  


  I am kind of lost on why this doesn't work anymore. I might have upgraded the FFmpeg executable in the mean time. Maybe my syntax was/is not correct, but I believe it just worked.

  


  It has to be in the complex filter, because when I remove that, it works alright.
It is not in the drawtext part of the complex filter, because it still occurs when I remove that. And when I only do the drawtext, FFmpeg stops correctly at the specified time.

  


  I have tried this, but then it still occurs :

  


  -filter_complex "
    color=0x7F7F7F@0.95:1920x1080[grey_for_fade_out];
    [grey_for_fade_out]fade=t=out:st=12:d=2:alpha=1[grey_fade_out];
    [0:v][grey_fade_out]overlay[video_grey_fade_out];
    color=0x7F7F7F@0.95:1920x1080[grey_for_fade_in];
    [grey_for_fade_in]fade=t=in:st=37:d=2:alpha=1[grey_fade_in];
    [video_grey_fade_out][grey_fade_in]overlay"


  


  Also with this, it still occurs :

  


  -filter_complex "
    [1:v]fade=t=out:st=13:d=2:alpha=1[over];
    [over]scale=iw/1.5:-1[scaled];
    [0:v][scaled]overlay=(main_w-overlay_w)/2:(main_h-overlay_h)/10[video_grey_fade_out_in_logo];
    [1:v]fade=t=in:st=36:d=2:alpha=1[over2];
    [over2]scale=iw/1.5:-1[scaled2];
    [video_grey_fade_out_in_logo][scaled2]overlay=(main_w-overlay_w)/2:(main_h-overlay_h)/2[video_grey_fade_out_in_logo2];
    [2:v]colorchannelmixer=aa=0.5,fade=t=in:st=14:d=2:alpha=1,fade=t=out:st=35:d=2:alpha=1[over3];
    [over3]scale=iw/10:-1[scaled3];
    [video_grey_fade_out_in_logo2][scaled3]overlay=10:10"


  


  I just don't understand. All my fade-ins/-outs seem to be within the specified range :

  


  

  • fade=t=out:st=12:d=2 : start at 12 seconds, duration 2 seconds. This ends at 14 seconds, which is smaller than 40 seconds.

  


  • fade=t=in:st=37:d=2 : start at 37 seconds, duration 2 seconds. This ends at 39 seconds, which is smaller than 40 seconds.

  


  • fade=t=out:st=13:d=2 : start at 13 seconds, duration 2 seconds. This ends at 15 seconds, which is smaller than 40 seconds.

  


  • fade=t=in:st=36:d=2 : start at 36 seconds, duration 2 seconds. This ends at 38 seconds, which is smaller than 40 seconds.

  


  


  It is just like some sequence is not ended properly, which is causing FFmpeg to just continue.

  


• The Ultimate Guide to HeatMap Software

  20 septembre 2021, par Ben Erskine — Analytics Tips, Plugins, Heatmaps

  One of the most effective ways to improve the user experience on your website is to use heatmap software. As well as in-depth insight on how to improve your website and funnels, user behaviour analytics complement traditional web metrics with insights from your customers’ point of view. 

  Heatmap software shows actual user behaviour. That means that you have a visual representation of why a customer might not be converting instead of guessing. 

  By tracking clicks, mouse movement, and page scrolling as well as analysing above the fold content engagement and overall session recordings, heatmap software helps improve user experience and therefore customer retention and conversions.  

  

  What is heatmap software ?

  Heatmap software is a data visualisation tool that uses colour to show what actions a user is taking on a website. 

  If there is a design element on a page that many users engage with, it will show as red/hot. For elements that are less engaging, it will show on the analysis as blue/cold. 

   

  Heatmap software like Matomo helps businesses to improve user experience and increase conversions by tracking elements such as :

  • Flow through sales funnels 
  • Individual session recordings for user experience 
  • A/B page comparisons 
  • Form analytics for sign ups and conversions 
  • Media interaction such as instruction or sales videos
  • Clicks on important links and information 

  Using data visualisation software like a heatmap provides more in-depth data when combined with standard website metrics. 

  What is heatmap software used for ?

  Heatmap software tracks website user behaviour to improve website performance and increase conversions. 

  Heatmaps can show you a detailed analysis of : 

  • Where visitors are clicking (or not clicking) 
  • Where visitors are hovering with their mouse
  • How far users are scrolling or stopping 
  • Where the focus is above the fold 
  • What roadblocks or frictions customers are facing in the sales funnel

  Analysing activity on your website and across channels from your customers point of view is critical in developing a customer-centric business model. 

  This is because heatmaps not only show you what customers are doing but why they are doing it. 

  Heatmap software is ideal for businesses updating and redesigning websites. It also helps to answer important growth questions such as “how can we improve our user experience ?” and “why is our sales funnel not converting better ?”. 

  The benefits of using data visualisation like heatmaps for your website

  Heatmaps are critical for improving websites because they drastically improve customer experience. 

  Customer experience is one of the most important factors in modern business success. A Walker study found that customer experience is one of the biggest differentiators between brands, overtaking other factors such as price. 

  Where straightforward website metrics show customers left a page without action, data visualisation and session recordings show what happens in between them arriving and leaving. This gives web developers and marketers invaluable insights to improve website design and ultimately increase conversions. 

  How heatmap software improves your website and conversions

  There are a few key ways that heatmap software boosts website performance and conversions. All of them focus on both creating a seamless buyer journey and using data to improve results over time. 

  How heatmap software improves conversions ; 

  • By improving UX and usability– 70% of online businesses fail due to bad usability. Heatmaps identify user frustrations and optimise accordingly 
  • By improving content structure – Heatmaps take the guesswork out of design layout and content structure by showing real visitor experiences on your website 
  • By comparing A/B landing pages – Using heatmaps on alternate landing pages can show you why conversions are working or not working based on user activity on the page
  • By optimising across devices – See how your visitors are interacting with your content to learn how well optimised your website is for various devices and remove roadblocks 

  Heatmap analytics you need to improve website user experience

  Click heatmap

  Click heatmaps are useful for two key reasons.

  Firstly, it shows where website users are clicking. 

  Heatmaps that show clicks give you a visual representation of whether copy and CTA links are clear from the customers’ point of view. It can also show whether a customer is clicking on a design feature that doesn’t link anywhere. 

  Secondly, it shows where website users are not clicking. This is just as important when developing funnels and improving user experiences.

  For example, you may have a CTA button for a free trial or purchase. A click heatmap analysis would show if this isn’t clicked on mobile devices and informs developers that it needs to be more mobile-friendly.

  

  Mouse move or hover heatmap

  Like a click heatmap, a mouse hover heatmap shows how you can improve the overall user experience.

  For example, hover heatmaps identify where your visitors engage on a particular webpage. Ideally, of course, you want them to engage with CTAs. Analysing their mouse movements or where they are hovering for more information gives you an indication of any page elements that are distracting them or not working.

  

  Scroll heatmap

  A scroll heatmap uses colours to visualise how far down in a page your visitors scroll. For most web pages, the top will have the most impressions and will naturally get less views (i.e. get “colder” on the heatmap) further down the page. 

  This lets you find out if there is important content positioned too far down the page or if the page is designed to encourage users to keep scrolling.

  No matter how good your product or service is, it won’t convert if potential customers aren’t engaged and scrolling far enough to see it.

  

  Above the fold analysis 

  Above the fold is the content that a visitor sees without scrolling. 

  In a heatmap, the “Average Above the Fold” line will show you how much content your visitors see on average when they open your page. It also shows whether the page design is engaging, whether it encourages visitors to keep scrolling, and whether important information is too far down the page and therefore being missed. 

  Above the fold analysis is arguably the most important as this is the section that the highest number of traffic will see. Using this information ensures that the right content for conversion is seen by the highest number of visitors. 

  

  Session recording

  Session Recording lets you record a real visitor session, so you can see clicks, mouse movements, scrolls, window resizes, page changes, and form interactions all in one. 

  They allow you to understand the experience from the point of view of your visitor and then optimise your website to maximise your success.

  Heatmap software like Matomo takes this one step further and allows you to gather session recordings for individual segments. By analysing sessions based on segments, you can further personalise and optimise based on customer history and patterns.

  

  Final thoughts on heatmap software 

  Heatmap software improves your user experience by easily spotting critical issues that you can then address. 

  As well as that, heatmap analytics like clicks, mouse movement, scroll, above the fold analysis and session recordings increase your marketing ROI by making the most of your existing traffic. 

  It’s a win-win !
