• How to determine the best way to split video and merge it back ?

  6 novembre 2018, par Rami Alzebak

  Let’s say that I want to convert a Video to different resolution.

  The workflow is as follows :
  1- Splitting the video into n blocks
  2- Convert the resolution of the block
  3- Merge the blocks

  The reason why I am doing is to achieve the conversion process on parallel workers (not necessarily threads )

  The issue is I can’t determine what is the best number of blocks to split the video.

  E.g : When splitting a large video into 10 blocks it will reduce the total time .
  but when splitting a small one it may increase the total time .

  any hints or keys on the topic ?

• How can I determine the resolution of incoming RTMP streams with ffmpeg ?

  12 mars 2019, par toastedDeli

  I’m using ffmpeg to transcode RTMP from my own RTMP server into HLS ready H.264. At the moment, I’m executing a command of the following form

  ffmpeg -i rtmp://<ip>:<port> <options for="for" 480p="480p"> <options for="for" 720p30="720p30"> <options for="for" 720p60="720p60"> <options for="for" 1080p="1080p">
  
  </options></options></options></options></port></ip>

  This is causing me to attempt to transcode lower resolutions to higher resolutions.

  The RTMP server I’m using is nginx with RTMP module

  Is there a way I can determine the source resolution, so that I only transcode into resolutions smaller than the source one ?

• ffmpeg determine correct codec to use

  8 avril 2020, par nha

  I am trying to use .y4m files that I feed into Chrome for playing.
This is the only format that I can use.

  



  I have a set of .y4m files that are working for my use case, taken from here.
For example let's say that I use the file mobile_qcif_7.5fps.y4m.

  



  I also have a .mp4 file (specifically the sample small.mp4 file from techslides ). I know how to convert small.mp4 to small.y4m with the following command :

  



  ffmpeg -y -i small.mp4 small.y4m

  



  I would like the resulting file to be accepted by Chrome, just like the other file.
What options should I use (and how to find them) ?

  



  Additional information

  



  ffprobe gives :

  Head of the files

  



  Not sure if this is relevant, but the text content of both files begin like that :

  



  mobile_qcif_7.5fps.y4m
YUV4MPEG2 W176 H144 F15:2 Ip A128:117
FRAME

small.y4m (invalid)
YUV4MPEG2 W560 H320 F15:2 Ip A0:0 C420mpeg2 XYSCSS=420MPEG2
FRAME


  



  Additional experiment

  



  Taking the sample mobile_qcif_7.5fps.y4m, turning it into a .mp4 file and then back into a .y4m produces an invalid file (at least for Chrome).

  



  Answer to comments in the answer of @SirDarius

  



  Following the suggestion of @SirDarius ; I tried the following commands.
They failed to produce a valid file.

  When trying other formats (like yuv420p12be, which was in the output of -pix_fmts), I had the following output (hence my previous trials) :

  After that, I also tried to edit with an hexadecimal editor (bless) the small_yuv420p.y4m file. I replace C420mpeg2 by C420, and the file was accepted by Chrome.
What does the number in 420p[number] correspond to ? It is not explained there.
Is there any way to make ffmpeg output this kind of header files ?

  



  @SirDarius, thank you again for your help.

  



  The question

  



  (in case you forgot after this text blob)

  



  How can I convert the small.mp4 into a small.y4m file that has the same properties as the mobile_qcif_7.5fps.y4m file ?
