• ffmpeg not returning duration, cant play video until complete. Stream images 2 video via PHP

  17 février 2014, par John J

  I am real struggling with ffmpeg. I am trying to convert images to video, I have an ip camera which I am recording from. The recordings are mjpegs 1 frame per image.

  I am trying to create a script in php so I can recreate a video from date to date, this requires inputting the images via image2pipe and then creating the video.

  The trouble is, ffmpeg does return the duration and start stats, so I have no way of working out when the video is done or what percentage is done. The video won't play until its finished, and its not a very good UE.

  Any ideas of how I can resolve this, the video format can be anything I am open to suggestions.

  PHP :

  //Shell command
  
  exec('cat /image/dir/*.jpg | ffmpeg -y -c:v mjpeg -f image2pipe -r 10 -i - -c:v libx264 -pix_fmt yuv420p -movflags +faststart myvids/vidname.mp4 1>vidname.txt 2>&1')
  
  
  
  //This is loaded via javascript when the video is loaded (which is failing due to stats being wrong
  
  $video_play = "<video width="\&quot;320\&quot;" height="\&quot;240\&quot;" src="\&quot;myvids/vidname.mp4\&quot;" type="\&quot;video/mp4\&quot;\" controls="\&quot;controls\&quot;" preload="\&quot;none\&quot;"></video>";

  Javascript :

  //Javascript to create the loop until video is loaded
  
  <code class="echappe-js">&lt;script&gt;<br />
  
             $(document).ready(function() {<br />
  
                  var loader = $(&quot;#clip_load&quot;).percentageLoader();<br />
  
                  $.ajaxSetup({ cache: false }); // This part addresses an IE bug. without it, IE will only load the first number and will never refresh<br />
  
                  var interval = setInterval(updateProgress,1000);<br />
  
                  function updateProgress(){ $.get( &quot;&amp;#39;.base_url().&amp;#39;video/getVideoCompile_Process?l=&amp;#39;.$vid_name.&amp;#39;-output.txt&amp;amp;t=per&quot;, function( data ) { if(data=&gt;\&amp;#39;100\&amp;#39;){ $(&quot;#clip_load&quot;).html(\&amp;#39;&amp;#39;.$video_play.&amp;#39;\&amp;#39;); clearInterval(interval); }else{loader.setProgress(data); } });                    }<br />
  
              });<br />
  
              &lt;/script&gt;
  
  

  PHP (page is called via javascript :

  //This is the script which returns the current percentage
  
  $logloc = $this->input->get('l');
  
  $content = @file_get_contents($logloc);
  
  
  
  if($content){
  
      //get duration of source
  
      preg_match("/Duration: (.*?), start:/", $content, $matches);
  
  
  
      $rawDuration = $matches[1];
  
  
  
      //rawDuration is in 00:00:00.00 format. This converts it to seconds.
  
      $ar = array_reverse(explode(":", $rawDuration));
  
      $duration = floatval($ar[0]);
  
      if (!empty($ar[1])) $duration += intval($ar[1]) * 60;
  
      if (!empty($ar[2])) $duration += intval($ar[2]) * 60 * 60;
  
  
  
      //get the time in the file that is already encoded
  
      preg_match_all("/time=(.*?) bitrate/", $content, $matches);
  
  
  
      $rawTime = array_pop($matches);
  
  
  
      //this is needed if there is more than one match
  
      if (is_array($rawTime)){$rawTime = array_pop($rawTime);}
  
  
  
      //rawTime is in 00:00:00.00 format. This converts it to seconds.
  
      $ar = array_reverse(explode(":", $rawTime));
  
      $time = floatval($ar[0]);
  
      if (!empty($ar[1])) $time += intval($ar[1]) * 60;
  
      if (!empty($ar[2])) $time += intval($ar[2]) * 60 * 60;
  
  
  
      //calculate the progress
  
      $progress = round(($time/$duration) * 100);
  
      if ($this->input->get('t')=='per'){
  
          echo $progress;
  
      }else{
  
              echo "Duration: " . $duration . "<br />";

• Raspberry Pi 4 live streaming with ffmpeg [closed]

  12 décembre 2019, par Berri

  So speedify created a blog post and youtube video about making an IRL streaming backpack using the Elgato Cam Link 4k, Raspberry Pi 4, and ffmpeg.

  They gave pretty detailed instructions, and included downloads to prebuilt scripts/commands to get it all running once put together.
  Blog post :
  https://speedify.com/blog/how-to/build-irl-streaming-backpack-complete-guide/

  ffmpeg command from post :

  ffmpeg_command = “/home/pi/bin/ffmpeg -nostdin -re -f v4l2 -s ‘1280×720’ -framerate 24 -i /dev/video0 -f alsa -ac 2 -i hw:CARD=Link,DEV=0 -vcodec libx264 -framerate 24 -rtbufsize 1500k -s 1280×720 -preset ultrafast -pix_fmt yuv420p -crf 17 -force_key_frames ‘expr:gte(t,n_forced*2)’ -minrate 850k -maxrate 1000k -b:v 1000k -bufsize 1000k -acodec libmp3lame -rtbufsize 1500k -b 96k -ar 44100 -f flv – | ffmpeg -f flv -i – -c copy -f flv -drop_pkts_on_overflow 1 -attempt_recovery 1 -recovery_wait_time 1 rtmp://live.twitch.tv/app/live_” + streamKey + “‘\n” 

  I replaced -i hw:card=link,dev=0 in that command with -i hw:2,0 because -i hw:card=link,dev=0 gave me "file does not exist" errors in the log. "streamkey" is filled with the appropriate key for my twitch.

  Github Resources + Instructions used :
  https://github.com/speedify/rpi-streaming-experiment

  I’m using all the exact same hardware as outlined in the post, and have gotten everything installed correctly as far as I can tell.
  But when I go to run the ffmpeg command, it seems like nothing actually gets sent over to twitch correctly.

  The log after trying to run it looks like this.
  If anybody has any insight as to what may be going wrong, it would be greatly appreciated.

• send h264 video to nginx-rtmp server using ffmpeg API

  11 décembre 2019, par Glen

  I have C++ code that grabs frames from a GigE camera and writes them out to a file. I’m using the libx264 codec and ffmpeg version 4.0.

  Writing to the file works fine, however I would also like to send the video to nginx configured with the nginx-rtmp plug-in to make the video available live via HLS.

  I can use the ffmpeg command line program to stream one of my previously captured files to my nginx server and rebroadcast as HLS, however if I try to stream from my C++ code the nginx server closes the connection after one or two frames are sent.

  To test further, I used the ffmpeg command line program to receive a rtmp stream and write it out to a file. I am able to send video to ffmpeg from my C++ program with rtmp, however every frame generates a warning like this :

  [avi @ 0x1b6b6f0] Non-monotonous DTS in output stream 0:0; previous: 1771, current: 53; changing to 1772. This may result in incorrect timestamps in the output file.

  [avi @ 0x1b6b6f0] Non-monotonous DTS in output stream 0:0; previous: 1779, current: 53; changing to 1780. This may result in incorrect timestamps in the output file.

  I printed PTS and DTS for my packet before writing it, and the numbers were monotonous (for example, in this last frame the pts and dts printed from my code were 1780, not the ’current : 53’ that ffmpeg reports>

  also, unless I tell ffmpeg what the output framerate should be I end up with a file that plays 2x speed.

  After ffmpeg receives the rtmp stream and writes it to the file, I am then able to successfully send that file to my nginx server using ffmpeg.

  Since I am able to send video from a previously recorded file to nginx with the ffmpeg command line program, I believe the problem is in my code and not my nginx configuration.

  EDIT : I think it may have to do with SPS/PPS as I see a bunch of these error messages in the nginx log before it closes the stream

  2019/12/11 11:11:31 [error] 10180#0: *4 hls: failed to read 5 byte(s), client: XXX, server: 0.0.0.0:1935
  
  2019/12/11 11:11:31 [error] 10180#0: *4 hls: error appenging SPS/PPS NALs, client: XXX, server: 0.0.0.0:1935

  As I mentioned, this code works fine if I set it up to write to an avi file rather stream to rtmp, and I can stream to ffmpeg listening for rtmp but with lots of warnings about the DTS but if I try to send to nginx, it closes the connection almost immediately. My first thought was that there was something wrong with the frame timestamps, but when I print pts and dts prior to writing the packet to the stream they look okay to me.

  My end goal is to capture video to a file, and also be able to turn on the rtmp stream on demand — but for now I’m just trying to get the rtmp stream working continuously (without writing to a file)

  Thanks for any insights.
