• ffmpeg video duration is not equal to duration after hls process

  9 décembre 2022, par Timur Khazhiev

  Problem

  


  For videofile input I preprocess/encode it to libx264. Then I'm trying to cut video into 2 second chunks except last one (last one being < 2 seconds) using hls processing

  &#xA;

  ffmpeg -v error -i video.mp4 -x264-params "keyint=60:min-keyint=60:scenecut=0" 
-hls_time 2 -hls_list_size 0 -hls_segment_filename chunk%03d.ts index.m3u8


  &#xA;

  which follows this problem

  &#xA;

  then looking into index.m3u8 file reveals that sum of all chunks' durations does not add up to original video duration :

  &#xA;

  % ffprobe -loglevel quiet -print_format flat -show_entries format=duration index.m3u8     

format.duration="204.880000"

% ffprobe -loglevel quiet -print_format flat -show_entries format=duration video.mp4 

format.duration="204.892813"


  &#xA;

  Moreover duration of a chunk in index.m3u8 is not the same as in chunk file.

  &#xA;

  % ffprobe -loglevel quiet -print_format flat -show_entries format=duration chunk000.ts

format.duration="2.023222"

% cat index.m3u8
#EXTM3U
#EXT-X-VERSION:3
#EXT-X-TARGETDURATION:2
#EXT-X-MEDIA-SEQUENCE:0
#EXTINF:2.000000,
chunk000.ts
#EXTINF:2.000000,
chunk001.ts
#EXTINF:2.000000,
chunk002.ts
...

  What I tried

  &#xA;

  &#xA;
  • Preprocess/transcode video before proceeding with hls

  &#xA;

  • Force keyframes before proceeding with hls

  &#xA;

  • Use 1, 3, 4 seconds chunks

  &#xA;

  • Use different GOP sizes

  &#xA;

  • -hls_flags split_by_time

  &#xA;

  &#xA;

  but it leads to same result or very unequal chunks

  &#xA;

  Questions

  &#xA;

  &#xA;
  1. Is it ok or I'm missing something ?

  &#xA;

  2. If not, what parameters/options should I use to force chunks to be precisely 2 seconds ?

• av::av_encode_video produces blurred video from crisp files

  9 janvier 2023, par Abdirizak

  I am using the av::av_encode_video() function to produce a .mp4 video from png files, as in this answer. I pay special attention for the png files to be perfectly crisp, i.e. I plot matrices to png with exactly the same dimensions, so that every matrix cell maps to one cell in the png. Here is code to illustrate what I mean :

  &#xA;

  library(av)

n.times <- 24*10
n.row <- 50
n.col <- 26

out.dir <- "/Users/Abdirizak/Documents/some/directory/"

for (i in 1:n.times) {
   
   current.mat <- matrix(data = rnorm(n.row*n.col), nrow = n.row, ncol = n.col)
   
   setwd(out.dir)
   png(filename = paste0(i, ".png"), width = n.row, height = n.col)
   
   par(mar = rep(0,4))
   image(current.mat)
   
   dev.off()
   
}

setwd(out.dir)
png.files <- paste0(out.dir, list.files(pattern = ".png$"))

av::av_encode_video(input = png.files, output = "000.mp4", framerate = 24)


  &#xA;

  Now, even though my input .png files are perfectly crisp, the output .mp4 video is blurry. How can I prevent that from happening ? I.e. how can I get a perfectly crisp video ? (I am aware that this will likely inflate the file size of the .mp4 file)

  &#xA;

  I already digged a bit into the vfilter argument of av_encode_video() and the underlying ffmpeg filter graphs on here, but could not yet really get the hang on it.

  &#xA;

  I am looking at the .mp4 file through QuickTime Player on MacOS Ventura 13.0.1, and using R version 4.2.2 through RStudio 2022.12.0.353

  &#xA;

  Edit 9.1.2023 :

  &#xA;

  To further clarify, here is an example screenshot of a png image (not the original png file because that one appears too small here) :

  &#xA;

  

  &#xA;

  As I said, a perfectly crisp image.

  &#xA;

  On the other hand, a screenshot of the .mp4 movie looks like this :

  &#xA;

  

  &#xA;

  Somewhat unsatisfactory. Any suggestions are welcome.

• ffmpeg doesn't sometimes start reading RTSP stream from IP camera without error

  8 décembre 2022, par Petr Dub

  I've an IP camera, which provide RTSP stream. I want to read this stream, rotate it 90° and provide data for displaying video via IIS server. I have a working solution via ffmpeg, but it is not reliable. It ends after several minutes without error and it is not starting sometimes.

  &#xA;

  I use this command :&#xA;ffmpeg.exe -thread_queue_size 128 -i "rtsp://<login>:<pwd>@192.168.0.201:554/live/ch0" -vf "transpose=1" -y -c:a aac -b:a 160000 -ac 1 -s 432x768 -g 50 -hls_time 2 -hls_list_size 1 -start_number 1 -hls_flags delete_segments m:\playlist.m3u8</pwd></login>

  &#xA;

  It works, but after several minutes (40 to 100) it stops without error (I have no idea why). When I restart the same ffmeg command, it sometimes doesn’t start reading the stream, but it doesn’t produce any error, the ffmpeg process is still running. Error output from ffmeg shows :

  &#xA;

  Any ideas, what should I do ? At least to force ffmpeg end with error and not stays “running”…

  &#xA;

  Edit : I finally wrote a windows service, which starts the ffmpeg and monitors its error output. When nothing comes to this output for several seconds, it kills the ffmpeg process and starts a new one.
