• Writing numpy arrays using cv2 VideoWriter

  8 juillet 2015, par JustInTime

  I have a problem with writing a toy example video using opencv2.3.1 VideoWriter, here is how I do it :

  writer = cv2.VideoWriter('test1.avi',cv.CV_FOURCC('P','I','M','1'),25,(640,480))
  
  for i in range(1000):
  
      x = np.random.randint(10,size=(480,640)).astype('uint8')
  
      writer.write(x)
  
  #del writer (with or without tested)

  I tried every possible combination resulting with a 0 bytes file if the extension was mpg, and 5.5kb if it was avi. I should say that some pointed out that I should build the ffmpeg library from source and not apt-get it. Well I did that on a fresh machine based on the help of this site http://vinayhacks.blogspot.com/2011/11/installing-opencv-231-with-ffmpeg-on-64.html. which also presented an error while compiling opencv(the error was related to ffmpeg). Now I am really out of ideas, How to generate a video using OPENCV ?

  Thanks in advance

• Accessing web content with ffmpeg on android

  9 janvier 2017, par Pure_eyes

  I’m using ffmpeg inside my xamarin.android project,by accessing a statically build version for the corresponding architecture of the device.
  I’m using https://www.johnvansickle.com/ffmpeg/, static builds which support https protocol.
  I’m calling ffmpeg by starting a new process and passing the arguments.Here is a pseudo code for the operation :

  arguments = {'-i',inputFileName,...}
  
  run('./ffmpeg',arguments,redirectOutput = true,...)
  
       .OnOutput(s) => log(s)

  Now,I want to access a file in the web, directly with ffmpeg, since from my testing it is more efficient in term of bandwidth, and speed.

  The problem i’m facing is that because i’m using a static build of ffmpeg, we need to statically link gclib, which results loss of dns resolution as stated in the readme :

  A limitation of statically linking glibc is the loss of DNS resolution. Installing
  nscd through your package manager will fix this or you can use
  "ffmpeg -i http://<ip address="address" here="here">/"</ip> instead of "ffmpeg -i http://example.com/"

  But the content that i’m trying to get provides strictly only through HTTPS,so there is no way to access it via the ip.
  But on Linux systems i had no problem accessing the content(With the same command as for android), thanks to nscd, which isn’t present in android.

  • Is there anyway to use android’s dns resolution ?
  • Or compile ffmpeg
    differently, as stated in this
    question ?Maybe using android
    NDK would default this ?Would ffmpeg even work then ?
  • Or somehow pipe the content, to
    ffmpeg’s stdin, and tell it to input from pipe (Would it still be
    more efficient, than downloading and saving the file, then running
    ffmpeg ) ?

  All suggestions are welcomed !

  EDIT

  As for SushiHangover advice, i was able to implement it via piping,i came up with two ways :

  Process ffmpegProcess = new Process();
  
  ffmpegProcess.StartInfo.FileName = "ffmpeg";
  
  ffmpegProcess.StartInfo.Arguments = ....
  
  ffmpegProcess.StartInfo.UseShellExecute = false;
  
  ffmpegProcess.StartInfo.RedirectStandardInput = true;
  
  ffmpegProcess.Start();
  
  
  
  //Way 1
  
  var data = await GetBytesAsync();
  
  await ffmpegProcess.StandardInput.BaseStream.WriteAsync(b, 0,b.Length);
  
  
  
  // Way 2
  
  await (await GetStreamAsync()).CopyToAsync(ffmpegProcess.StandardInput.BaseStream);

  Which both work, but they aren’t efficient in term of bandwidth as ffmpeg itself, i tested the network traffic with NetBalancer.

  Who can i overcome the gap ? I speculate that ffmpeg only reads the headers, and able to download only the needed audio stream based on my arguments, rather than the whole video as my snippets do.
