• Surfaceview for subtitles alpha does not work

  27 mai 2018, par user654628

  Goal : trying to build video player with subtitles for android. Video can be low resolution but the subtitles should be resolution of phone (such that if video is 720p, the subtitles should render to screen size say 1080p).

  Issue : I am using FFMPEG to render a frame at say 720p but phone device is 1080p. I need to display subtitles that are different resolution than the subtitles resolution so pixel blending is difficult.

  I first tried to scale the frame (AVFrame) with sws_convert but each frame took 80ms so that is not an option (since it is running software).

  Then I tried two surface views, one for the video and one for subtitles where video would be 720p and subtitles SurfaceView is 1080p, then the video scales up to the phone size. The issue here is that the subtitles are not translucent. Black opacity 0 would be transparent but white with alpha 0 is still white. Why is this ?

  //Code from Java, the view that extends FrameLayout
  
  public VideoView(@NonNull Context context, @Nullable AttributeSet attrs, int defStyleAttr) {
  
      super(context, attrs, defStyleAttr);
  
      mVideoSurface = new SurfaceView(context);
  
      mSubtitlesSurface = new SurfaceView(context);
  
      addView(mVideoSurface);
  
      addView(mSubtitlesSurface);
  
      mVideoSurface.getHolder().addCallback(mSurfaceCallback);
  
      mSubtitlesSurface.getHolder().addCallback(mSurfaceCallback);
  
      mSubtitlesSurface.setZOrderMediaOverlay(true);
  
      mSubtitlesSurface.getHolder().setFormat(PixelFormat.TRANSLUCENT);
  
      //etc
  
  }

  Eventually I tried as a test to render a square to the subtitle surface view (C++)

  // Render the video frame, now render the subtitle frame
  
  ANativeWindow_Buffer buffer;
  
  ANativeWindow_setBuffersGeometry(subWindow, width, height, WINDOW_FORMAT_RGBA_8888);
  
  if ((ret = ANativeWindow_lock(subWindow, &buffer, NULL)) < 0) {
  
      return ret;
  
  }
  
  for (int j = height/2; j < height/2 + 100; j++) {
  
      for (int i = width/2; i < width/2 + 100; i++) {
  
          uint8_t * d =  (uint8_t*)buffer.bits + j * (buffer.stride * 4) + i * 4;
  
          d[0] = 0xff;
  
          d[1] = 0xff;
  
          d[2] = 0xFF;
  
          d[3] = 0;           /* alpha */
  
  
  
      }
  
  }
  
  ANativeWindow_unlockAndPost(subWindow);

  So above code should render a white square in the image with 0 alpha (so should be invisible), but it is shown. If I change it to yellow with alpha 0 it will be visible but not the correct color. If I change to white with 1 alpha, it is white and opaque. If I use black with alpha 0xCC, it is invisible, only if alpha is 0xFF then it is visible as black. Seems to have no translucency even though I added it to the SurfaceHolder. Why is it like this ? I can add more code if needed.

  Is my only option to do what I want to render frame as a texture in OpenGL and (GLSurfaceView), resize the image to phone resolution and blend the alpha subtitles onto the frame as a texture ?

  Thanks in advance.

• Surfaceview/TextureView for subtitles alpha does not work

  Goal : trying to build video player with subtitles for android. Video can be low resolution but the subtitles should be resolution of phone (such that if video is 720p, the subtitles should render to screen size say 1080p).

  Issue : Render on Textureview or Surfaceview is not see through where you could get it to blend with the background views. I am using FFMPEG to render a frame at say 720p but phone device is 1080p. I need to display subtitles that are different resolution than the subtitles resolution so pixel blending is difficult.

• FFMPEG : Convert GIF to MP4 whilst keeping transparent (alpha-channel) background

  15 janvier 2020, par Oliver Heward

  I am trying to compress/convert a GIF file to an MP4 through FFMPEG. All is well but I am trying to figure out a way to preserve the alpha channel rather than the transparency turning to white. The GIF is just a bunch of images that change but they vary in size with a psuedo’d image on the container, so maintaining the transparency is imperative.

  Understandably after a long google search, it does seem that MP4 does not support alpha channels.
  I am wondering if anyone would be able to provide a solution on how to create a workaround for this ?

  The command I am currently running which converts fine but with the white background is :

  ffmpeg -an -i 2.gif -vf scale="trunc(oh*a/2)*2:720" -vcodec libx264 -pix_fmt rgba yuv420p -profile:v baseline -level 3 2-test-remade.mp4

  And I have also tried the command below with no success :

   ffmpeg -an lavfi -i color=RRGGBB -i 2.gif -vf scale="trunc(oh*a/2)*2:720" \
  
    -filter_complex "[0][1]scale2ref[bg][gif];[bg]setsar=1[bg];[bg][gif]overlay=shortest=1" \
  
  -vcodec libx264 -pix_fmt rgba yuv420p -profile:v baseline -level 3 2-test-trans.mp4

  Error message from above command :

  [color @ 0x7fe49ed19500] Cannot find color 'RRGGBB'
  
  [color @ 0x7fe49ed19500] Unable to parse option value "RRGGBB" as color
  
  [color @ 0x7fe49ed19500] Cannot find color 'RRGGBB'
  
  [color @ 0x7fe49ed19500] Unable to parse option value "RRGGBB" as color
  
  [color @ 0x7fe49ed19500] Error setting option color to value RRGGBB.
  
  [Parsed_color_0 @ 0x7fe49ed19400] Error applying options to the filter.
  
  [lavfi @ 0x7fe4a0009c00] Error initializing filter 'color' with args 'RRGGBB'
  
  color=RRGGBB: Invalid argument

  Any help will be greatly appreciated ! Thank you :)

  EDIT :
  WebM maintains the alpha channel, but that is already fine. This is to create an MP4 fallback for devices & browsers that do not yet support WebM playback.
