• FFmpeg command works locally but not on Azure Batch Service

  10 août 2018, par Elgert

  I have a command that generates a video with background and text on it with FFmpeg and would like to render it using Azure Batch Service. Locally my command works :

  ./ffmpeg -f lavfi -i color=c=green:s=854x480:d=7 -vf "[in]drawtext=fontsize=46:fontcolor=White:text=dfdhjf dhjf dhjfh djfh djfh:x=(w-text_w)/2:y=((h-text_h)/2)-48,drawtext=fontsize=46:fontcolor=White:text= djfh djfh djfh djfh djf jdhfdjf hjdfh djfh jd fhdj:x=(w-text_w)/2:y=(h-text_h)/2,drawtext=fontsize=46:fontcolor=White:text=fh:x=(w-text_w)/2:y=((h-text_h)/2)+48[out]" -y StoryA.mp4

  while the one generated programatically with C# and added as a task in batch service retursn failure :

  cmd /c %AZ_BATCH_APP_PACKAGE_ffmpeg#3.4%\ffmpeg-3.4-win64-static\bin\ffmpeg -f lavfi -i color=c=green:s=854x480:d=7 -vf "[in]drawtext=fontsize=46:fontcolor=White:text=dfdhjf dhjf dhjfh djfh djfh:x=(w-text_w)/2:y=((h-text_h)/2)-48,drawtext=fontsize=46:fontcolor=White:text= djfh djfh djfh djfh djf jdhfdjf hjdfh djfh jd fhdj:x=(w-text_w)/2:y=(h-text_h)/2,drawtext=fontsize=46:fontcolor=White:text=fh:x=(w-text_w)/2:y=((h-text_h)/2)+48[out]" -y StoryA.mp4

  The ffmpeg configuration works, and also the Pool as I’ve already tested it with simpler ffmpeg commands which had input and output files. This command doesnt have input file, maybe that is part of the problem ?

  Thank you

  doc/html : fix styling issue with Texinfo 7.0
  Texinfo 7.0 produces quite different HTML to Texinfo 6.8. Without
  
  this change, enumerated option flags (i.e. Possible values of x
  
  are...) render as white text on a white background with Texinfo 7.0
  
  and are unreadable. This change removes a style for the selector
  
  `.table .table` which causes the background to turn white for these
  
  elements. As far as I can tell, it is not actually used anywhere in
  
  files generated by Texinfo 6.8.

• How to make high smooth, high resolution particle motion animations

  5 décembre 2019, par algae

  For some time I have been having trouble with producing short movies/animations/gifs which are of sufficiently high resolution. I’m going to use R to generate some frames as a random example, but if there is somewhere else I should be creating frames from to give better results I would be interested in that too.

  Creating frames

  The kinds of animations I’m interested involve some cloud of ’particles’ moving about the page. There are usually a large number of particles and I would like their motion be as smooth as possible. As a random example, consider the R code (using base graphics and not ggplot2 as it is far quicker for saving a large number of frames)

  N <- 500
  
  nFrames <- 250
  
  points <- pracma::randp(n=N, r=1)
  
  rot <- function(p, a) { return(cbind(p[,1]*cos(a) - p[,2]*sin(a), p[,1]*sin(a) + p[,2]*cos(a))) }
  
  cols <- colorRampPalette(c("red", "green", "blue"))(nFrames)
  
  ang <- seq(0, pi, length=N)
  
  
  
  # Save frames
  
  png(filename="%d.png")
  
  par(mar=c(0,0,0,0))
  
  for (i in seq(1,N,length=nFrames)) 
  
          plot(sqrt(i)*rot(points, ang[i]), xlim=sqrt(N)*c(-1,1),  ylim=sqrt(N)*c(-1,1), cex=0.5, pch=19, col=cols[i], asp=1, xaxs="i")
  
  
  
  dev.off()

  Frames to animation

  There are a number of tools available to chain each frame together into an animation (in R there are also things like gganimate which I have tried but did not find convenient or better than the following). I also don’t have any requirements for the resulting file size or time taken to get everything looking as crisp as possible.

  convert

  For short gif style animations a common solution is to do something like convert -delay 1 -loop 0 *.png g.gif which gives

  

  gifski

  Running gifski -o g.gif *.png produces

  

  There is an annoying amount of ’jitter’ happening in the transition between frames in both of the above (though less noticeable with gifski).

  ffmpeg

  Being gifs, the above will be have limited options for tweaking so I suspect part of the solution lies in using ffmpeg. All I would like to know is how to make the animation appear totally smooth without any kind of noticeable blurriness. Here the resulting movies tend to be quite smooth, but resolution is lacking.. e.g. after setting height=1080 and width=1080 in png() of the above code we can run

  fmpeg -i %d.png -s 1080x1080 -c:v libx264 -vf fps=250 -pix_fmt yuv444p out.mp4

  If the particles move on a time/space scale smaller than is visible to the naked eye, and we set the frames per second to be the total number of frames, the transition between frames should be seamless, right ? At around the 2 second mark in out.mp4 you will see some kind of frame drop and similarly right at the beginning. Why does this happen ?

  Questions

  1. Is there a standard documented approach to generating high quality animations/movies involving large numbers of ’point-like’ particles ? Do we need more an more frames ?
  2. How to improve resolution of movies using ffmpeg ? Should I change from .png format to something vectorised (if so, how) ?
