• Losing quality when encoding with ffmpeg

  22 mai 2016, par lupod

  I am using the c libraries of ffmpeg to read frames from a video and create an output file that is supposed to be identical to the input.
  However, somewhere during this process some quality gets lost and the result is "less sharp". My guess is that the problem is the encoding and that the frames are too compressed (also because the size of the file decreases quite significantly). Is there some parameter in the encoder that allows me to control the quality of the result ? I found that AVCodecContext has a compression_level member, but changing it that does not seem to have any effect.

  I post here part of my code in case it could help. I would say that something must be changed in the init function of OutputVideoBuilder when I set the codec. The AVCodecContext that is passed to the method is the same of InputVideoHandler.
  Here are the two main classes that I created to wrap the ffmpeg functionalities :

  // This class opens the video files and sets the decoder
  
  class InputVideoHandler {
  
  public:
  
    InputVideoHandler(char* name);
  
    ~InputVideoHandler();
  
    AVCodecContext* getCodecContext();
  
    bool readFrame(AVFrame* frame, int* success);
  
  
  
  private:
  
    InputVideoHandler();
  
    void init(char* name);
  
    AVFormatContext* formatCtx;
  
    AVCodec* codec;
  
    AVCodecContext* codecCtx;
  
    AVPacket packet;
  
    int streamIndex;
  
  };
  
  
  
  void InputVideoHandler::init(char* name) {
  
    streamIndex = -1;
  
    int numStreams;
  
  
  
    if (avformat_open_input(&formatCtx, name, NULL, NULL) != 0)
  
      throw std::exception("Invalid input file name.");
  
  
  
    if (avformat_find_stream_info(formatCtx, NULL)<0)
  
      throw std::exception("Could not find stream information.");
  
  
  
    numStreams = formatCtx->nb_streams;
  
  
  
    if (numStreams < 0)
  
      throw std::exception("No streams in input video file.");
  
  
  
    for (int i = 0; i < numStreams; i++) {
  
      if (formatCtx->streams[i]->codec->codec_type == AVMEDIA_TYPE_VIDEO) {
  
        streamIndex = i;
  
        break;
  
      }
  
    }
  
  
  
    if (streamIndex < 0)
  
      throw std::exception("No video stream in input video file.");
  
  
  
    // find decoder using id
  
    codec = avcodec_find_decoder(formatCtx->streams[streamIndex]->codec->codec_id);
  
    if (codec == nullptr)
  
      throw std::exception("Could not find suitable decoder for input file.");
  
  
  
    // copy context from input stream
  
    codecCtx = avcodec_alloc_context3(codec);
  
    if (avcodec_copy_context(codecCtx, formatCtx->streams[streamIndex]->codec) != 0)
  
      throw std::exception("Could not copy codec context from input stream.");
  
  
  
    if (avcodec_open2(codecCtx, codec, NULL) < 0)
  
      throw std::exception("Could not open decoder.");
  
  }
  
  
  
  // frame must be initialized with av_frame_alloc() before!
  
  // Returns true if there are other frames, false if not.
  
  // success == 1 if frame is valid, 0 if not.
  
  bool InputVideoHandler::readFrame(AVFrame* frame, int* success) {
  
    *success = 0;
  
    if (av_read_frame(formatCtx, &packet) < 0)
  
      return false;
  
    if (packet.stream_index == streamIndex) {
  
      avcodec_decode_video2(codecCtx, frame, success, &packet);
  
    }
  
    av_free_packet(&packet);
  
    return true;
  
  }
  
  
  
  // This class opens the output and write frames to it
  
  class OutputVideoBuilder{
  
  public:
  
    OutputVideoBuilder(char* name, AVCodecContext* inputCtx);
  
    ~OutputVideoBuilder();

  void OutputVideoBuilder::init(char* name, AVCodecContext* inputCtx) {
  
    if (avformat_alloc_output_context2(&formatCtx, NULL, NULL, name) < 0)
  
      throw std::exception("Could not determine file extension from provided name.");
  
  
  
    codec = avcodec_find_encoder(inputCtx->codec_id);

      throw std::exception("Could not open encoder.");
  
  
  
    stream = avformat_new_stream(formatCtx, codec);
  
    if (stream == nullptr) {
  
      throw std::exception("Could not allocate stream.");
  
    }
  
  
  
    stream->id = formatCtx->nb_streams - 1;
  
    stream->codec = codecCtx;
  
    stream->time_base = codecCtx->time_base;
  
  
  
  
  
  
  
    av_dump_format(formatCtx, 0, name, 1);
  
    if (!(formatCtx->oformat->flags & AVFMT_NOFILE)) {
  
      if (avio_open(&formatCtx->pb, name, AVIO_FLAG_WRITE) < 0) {
  
        throw std::exception("Could not open output file.");
  
      }
  
    }
  
  
  
    if (avformat_write_header(formatCtx, NULL) < 0) {
  
      throw std::exception("Error occurred when opening output file.");
  
    }
  
  
  
  }
  
  
  
  void OutputVideoBuilder::writeFrame(AVFrame* frame) {
  
    AVPacket packet = { 0 };
  
    int success;
  
    av_init_packet(&packet);
  
  
  
    if (avcodec_encode_video2(codecCtx, &packet, frame, &success))
  
      throw std::exception("Error encoding frames");
  
  
  
    if (success) {

      av_interleaved_write_frame(formatCtx, &packet);
  
    }
  
    av_free_packet(&packet);
  
  }

  This is the part of the main function that reads and write frames :

   while (inputHandler->readFrame(frame,&gotFrame)) {
  
  
  
      if (gotFrame) {
  
        try {
  
          outputBuilder->writeFrame(frame);
  
        }
  
        catch (std::exception e) {
  
          std::cout << e.what() << std::endl;
  
          return -1;
  
        }
  
      }
  
    }

• OpenShift — installing ffmpeg

  2 juillet 2016, par aweeeezy

  I’m new to deploying web apps — I just started looking into hosting plans yesterday morning when I settled on OpenShift. I have my app running, but it depends on node-youtube-dl which returns this error when trying to download a video from a link :

  Error: Command failed: WARNING: m_djk1RQ2Ew: writing DASH m4a. Only some players support this container. Install ffmpeg or avconv to fix this automatically.
  
  ERROR: ffprobe or avprobe not found. Please install one.

  So I searched around for awhile and kept returning to the same list instructions for how to install ffmpeg on OpenShift :

  cd $OPENSHIFT_DATA_DIR
  
  mkdir bin
  
  wget http://www.tortall.net/projects/yasm/releases/yasm-1.2.0.tar.gz
  
  wget http://ffmpeg.org/releases/ffmpeg-2.0.1.tar.gz
  
  
  
  tar -xvf yasm-1.2.0.tar.gz
  
  cd yasm-1.2.0
  
  ./configure --prefix=$OPENSHIFT_DATA_DIR/bin --bindir=$OPENSHIFT_DATA_DIR/bin
  
  make
  
  make install
  
  export PATH=$OPENSHIFT_DATA_DIR/bin:$PATH
  
  
  
  cd $OPENSHIFT_DATA_DIR
  
  tar -xvf ffmpeg-2.0.1.tar.gz
  
  cd ffmpeg-2.0.1
  
  ./configure --prefix=$OPENSHIFT_DATA_DIR/bin --bindir=$OPENSHIFT_DATA_DIR/bin
  
  make
  
  make install

  Now my ~/app-root/data has ffprobe in it as well as some other codec related things, but node-youtube-dl still returns the same error saying I don’t have the necessary codecs installed. Here’s a listing of the contents of my data directory on OpenShift :

  -rwxr-xr-x.  1  11024048 Jul  2 01:51 ffmpeg
  
  -rwxr-xr-x.  1  10967408 Jul  2 01:51 ffprobe
  
  -rwxr-xr-x.  1  10611184 Jul  2 01:51 ffserver
  
  drwx------. 10      4096 Jul  2 01:51 include
  
  drwx------.  3      4096 Jul  2 01:51 lib
  
  drwx------.  4        29 Jul  2 01:51 share
  
  -rwxr-xr-x.  1   2116650 Jul  2 01:15 vsyasm
  
  -rwxr-xr-x.  1   2115479 Jul  2 01:15 yasm
  
  -rwxr-xr-x.  1   2102821 Jul  2 01:15 ytasm

  I really want OpenShift to work because it’s the last step to finishing off this one app before I move onto new projects — I don’t want to switch to paid hosting that will allow me to install stuff because I won’t be ready to determine an appropriate plan until a few months from now. That leaves me with trying to get ffmpeg to compile properly on OpenShift...so either a) I’m ignorant and it has long since been determined to be impossible by the OpenShift community or b) I’m ignorant and there’s a simple thing I’m doing wrong when building my codec libraries.

  Anybody out there know what’s wrong or had success installing these codecs before ? I’d greatly appreciate some guidance !
