• Pause a FFmpeg encoding in a Python Popen subprocess on Windows

  5 décembre 2020, par CasualDemon

  I am trying to pause an encode of FFmpeg while it is in a non-shell subprocess (This is important to how it plays into a larger program). This can be done by presssing the "Pause / Break" key on the keyboard by itself, and I am trying to send that to Popen.

  


  The command itself must be cross platform compatible, so I cannot wrap it in any way, but I can send signals or run functions that are platform specific as needed.

  


  I looked at how to send a "Ctrl+Break" to a subprocess via pid or handler and it suggested to send a signal, but that raised a "ValueError : Unsupported signal : 21"

  


  from subprocess import Popen, PIPE
import signal


if __name__ == '__main__':
    command = "ffmpeg.exe -y -i example_video.mkv -map 0:v -c:v libx265 -preset slow -crf 18 output.mkv"
    proc = Popen(command, stdin=PIPE, shell=False)

    try:
        proc.send_signal(signal.SIGBREAK)
    finally:
        proc.wait()


  


  Then attempted to use GenerateConsoleCtrlEvent to create a Ctrl+Break event as described here https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/console/generateconsolectrlevent

  


  from subprocess import Popen, PIPE
import ctypes


if __name__ == '__main__':
    command = "ffmpeg.exe -y -i example_video.mkv -map 0:v -c:v libx265 -preset slow -crf 18 output.mkv"
    proc = Popen(command, stdin=PIPE, shell=False)

    try:
        ctypes.windll.kernel32.GenerateConsoleCtrlEvent(1, proc.pid)
    finally:
        proc.wait()


  


  I have tried psutil pause feature, but it keeps the CPU load really high even when "paused".

  


  Even though it wouldn't work with the program overall, I have at least tried setting creationflags=CREATE_NEW_PROCESS_GROUP which makes the SIGBREAK not error, but also not pause it. For the Ctrl-Break event will entirely stop the encode instead of pausing it.

  


• c# RTSP audio to FFMPEG to SpeechRecognitionEngine

  18 avril 2016, par MrH40XX

  I’m trying to get an audiostream (from any source file/other stream/...) into the microsoft speech recognition engine.

  So far I’ve got :

  ffmpeg.exe -rtsp_transport tcp -i rtsp ://%_return1%/audio -acodec pcm_u16le -f rtp rtp ://localhost:2222

  Then I have inside my code :

  SpeechRecognitionEngine _engine = new SpeechRecognitionEngine(CultureInfo.CurrentCulture);    
  
  this._engine.SetInputToAudioStream(this._rtpClient.AudioStream, new SpeechAudioFormatInfo(16000, AudioBitsPerSample.Sixteen, AudioChannel.Mono));

  Then I have the events registered :

  this._engine.SpeechRecognized += this.SpeechRegocnized;
  
  
  
  this._engine.SpeechDetected += this.EngineOnSpeechDetected;

  I’m not sure about the codec settings... I’ve tried other codecs but doesn’t work.

• Is there any open source solution to display a remote stream inside a Hololens2 UWP Vuforia application ?

  19 avril 2023, par T777

  What do we need ?

  


  We are trying to develop an application for quality management in which we show an hologram on a metal part as an assitance marking. (using Hololen2 + Vuforia + ModleTargets) The employee uses an sensor to follow this assitance marking and the data will be analyzed live by a test device. The results are outputed on a screen / are visible at an closed source application of the manufacturer of the test device.

  


  Capturing of the video output :
The current plan is to capture the video stream of the test device via capture card. Add a via mrtk2 videopanel inside the vuforia app and stream the captured video to the Hololens2 using obs or an OpenCV python script for screen recording.

  


  What we have tried so far

  


  1) Sending Raw udp stream
via RMTP and decoding + converting with gstreamer server and writing an own library in Unity for Receiving
Result : Temporary stopped, because receiving the udp streams needs connection/ session management (signalling) frame syncing and agreement on video size, color format, frame rate etc.. and we have no solution.
An own implementation of any of this would have high complexity is consuming a lot of time.

  


  2) Using available protocols that i can find on the web
Actually there are some protocols already developed for session creation and streaming :

  


  

  • HTTP streaming (HLS) (Transport + Session)

  


  • RTMP (Transport + Session),

  


  • RTP (Transport) + RTPS (Session),

  


  • WebRTC : Is possible with different protocol stacks
RTMP/TCP/UDP (Transport) + SDP (standardized format for video paramaters) + ICE (p2p)/ WHIP (http, client-server) / Websocket(client-server) (signaling protocols) that can be used and some good open source streaming servers (gstreamer, mediamtx and srs)

  


  


  When using these the video will be encoded typcially with xh264 and need to be decoded on the HoloLens 2. There are APIs to C/C++ native (hardware) decoding libraries like unity-vlc and ffmpeg.NET that needing media library ffmpeg. I could figure out (not tested) that there is an hardware h264 decoder on the HoloLens2 but I have no clue how to access it. Since there I couldnt disvocer any information about HoloLens2 media libraries.

  


  3) Using Unity packages

  


  


  • Unit package WebRTC (https://docs.unity3d.com/Packages/com.unity.webrtc@2.4/manual/index.html) supports multiple transport protocols seem to have no signaling mechanism and

    


  


  • Unity package Render streaming (https://docs.unity3d.com/Packages/com.unity.renderstreaming@3.1/manual/index.html) is a fully integrated unity to unity and unit to browser streaming package with integrated stream Server with web GUI. It offers various streaming protocols (TCP, UDP,rmtp) and signaling mechanism over websocket, http (seems custom and not whip) or Furiouus.
BUT it doesnt support UWP as noted into the documentation. Implementing an example application we could demonstrate an working example with Vuforia, but it fails on build with target UWP on missing libraries.

  Will be testing other compile options tomorrow..

  


  

  • Mixed Reality WebRTC (https://github.com/microsoft/MixedReality-WebRTC) :
Various protocol support, Microsoft brought Webrtc specifically to HoloLens.
Deprecated, as fas as I can see just support for Hololens1 and ARM32. So i can not evaluate if trying it with this is worth it.

  


  


  What are the next options ?

  


  

  • Developing a raw udp streaming library with untiy directly.

  


  • Rebuilding the application with visionlib (ARM32) compatible and MixedRealityWebRTC (ARM32)

  


  • Porting ffmpeg + API to UWP ?

  


  • Also there seem some affords to make WebRTC in general available to UWP platforms : https://github.com/microsoft/winrtc

  


  


  The questions

  


  

  • Does Vuforia support ARM32 ?

  


  • How to access hardware decoder of Hololens2 via Unity Code ?
