• FFMPEG encoding 16bit video data results in 10bit

  12 mars 2023, par Jl arto

  I want to compress a depth map that has 16 bits of information per pixel. In general, such depth maps can be stored in different ways, e.g. p016le, gray16le, yuv420p16le, yuv444p16le, ... but for simplicity, let's assume the depth map is a yuv420p16le (where the y-channel contains the depth).

  


  For some reason when encoding with hevc_nvenc (I use an NVIDIA GTX 1660 Ti GPU), ffmpeg (the command line tool) changes the pixel format to a 10 or 12 bit variant (p010le, gray12le, yuv420p10le, yuv444p12le, ...), but I would like to keep the full 16 bits, since this affects the quality of the depth stored.

  


  For example :

  


  ffmpeg.exe -s:v 1920x1080 -r 30 -pix_fmt yuv420p16le -i depth_yuv420p16le.yuv -c:v hevc_nvenc -pix_fmt yuv444p16le output.mp4


  


  If I use ffprobe on the output.mp4, it tells me that the underlying pixel format is actually yuv444p10le. (Decoding and looking at the raw pixel data, I can confirm that the precision has decreased from 16 bits to 10 bits).

  


  I hope 16 bit compression is possible, since according to

  


  ffmpeg -h encoder=hevc_nvenc


  


  the supported pixel formats are :

  


  hevc_nvenc: yuv420p nv12 p010le yuv444p p016le yuv444p16le bgr0 rgb0 cuda d3d11


  


  But p016le results in a p010le output, and yuv444p16le in yuv444p10le.

  


  Does anyone know where the problem could lie ? Should I re-install ffmpeg (version 4.3.2-2021-02-27-essentials_build-www.gyan.dev) ? Is it because of Windows 10 having limited encoding/decoding capabilities ? Will buying the HEVC Video Extensions help solve this problem ?

  


  Additional info : using libx256 does not look like it will work for this purpose, since the supported pixel formats are :

  


  libx256 : yuv420p yuvj420p yuv422p yuvj422p yuv444p yuvj444p gbrp yuv420p10le yuv422p10le yuv444p10le gbrp10le yuv420p12le yuv422p12le yuv444p12le gbrp12le gray gray10le gray12le


  


  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  


• stream usb webcam via http using vlc without transcoding using mjpeg signal from webcam

  10 novembre 2020, par Peter Nußreiner

  I wanna stream my (Microsoft live) USB webcam using vlc from a raspberry.
While it works perfectely fine with transcoding my raspberry does not have enough power.

  


  So I checked the output formats of my webcam using :

  


  ffmpeg -f v4l2 -list_formats all -i /dev/video0


  


  wich gives me the following output :

  


  [video4linux2,v4l2 @ 0x559d5aee36c0] Raw       :     yuyv422 :           YUYV 4:2:2 : 640x480 1280x720 960x544 800x448 640x360 424x240 352x288 320x240 800x600 176x144 160x120 1280x800
[video4linux2,v4l2 @ 0x559d5aee36c0] Compressed:       mjpeg :          Motion-JPEG : 640x480 1280x720 960x544 800x448 640x360 800x600 416x240 352x288 176x144 320x240 160x120
/dev/video0: Immediate exit requested


  


  when running my streaming command :

  


  cvlc v4l2:///dev/video0:chroma=h264:width=1280:height=720 --sout '#standard{access=http,mux=ts,dst=192.168.178.27:8080,name=stream,mime=video/ts}' -vvv


  


  I get the following error :

  


  mux_ts mux warning: rejecting stream with unsupported codec YUY2
main mux error: cannot add this stream
main decoder error: cannot create packetizer output (YUY2)


  


  along with many other lines of information.
As far as I can interpret the error, vlc wants to use the YUY2 RAW signal of my webcam.
Is there any way I can force vlc to use the mjpg output of my camera ?

  


  I've already tried to use 'chroma=mjpg' without success.
Transcoding is not an alternative as my raspi has by far not enough power.

  


  I've also read about using ffmpeg for streaming, maybe someone has an alternative solution since I'm very new to the whole topic of websites and stuff

  


  It will (or should) be used as a live webcam for a windsurfing spot.
Therefore I need a fluent video with at least 10fps to judge the situation. A delay of a minute or so is no problem.
The basic idea was to stream the video to a webserver and embed the image in a website. I've got good internet connection at the spot.

  


  But for now I want to try it locally on my pc.

  


• ffmpeg output parse in batch script

  3 juillet 2016, par vlad2005

  I am totally unfamiliar with scripts in Windows, but are forced to use such a script. I would like someone to help me with the following problem. I want to process the output from ffmpeg command to save information about access an webcam to be used later.
  More precisely command is following :

  ffmpeg -stats -hide_banner -list_devices true -f dshow -i dummy

  and output is like this :

  [dshow @ 02cec400] DirectShow video devices (some may be both video and audio devices)
  
  [dshow @ 02cec400]  "Microsoft LifeCam Studio"
  
  [dshow @ 02cec400]     Alternative name "@device_pnp_\\?\usb#vid_045e&pid_0772&mi_00#6&2a15e69b&0&0000#{65e8773d-8f56-11d0-a3b9-00a0c9223196}\global"

  [dshow @ 02cec400]  "Desktop Microphone (3- Studio -"

  [dshow @ 02cec400]     Alternative name "@device_cm_{33D9A762-90C8-11D0-BD43-00A0C911CE86}\Microphone (High Definition Aud"

  Typically, the first two occurence for ”Alternative name” from DirectShow correspond to video and audio, so for simplicity I want these two information saved in two variables.
  In this example is :

  @device_pnp_\\?\usb#vid_045e&pid_0772&mi_00#6&2a15e69b&0&0000#{65e8773d-8f56-11d0-a3b9-00a0c9223196}\global

  and

  @device_cm_{33D9A762-90C8-11D0-BD43-00A0C911CE86}\Desktop Microphone (3- Studio -

  Can someone more experienced to help me with this task ?
  Thanks in advance !
