• av_read_frame stucks on an empty fifo pipe

  16 décembre 2016, par maziar esfandiarpoor

  So I have a thread running which reads from a video pipe and generates thumbnails of that video. The problem I’m facing is that when the pipe is empty I can’t stop the thread any more because av_read_frame() waits until it gets new data and it never gets out of the loop. I’ve already created an interrupt callback but it doesn’t get called when the pipe is empty. Is there any solution so I can check if the pipe has data in it before I call the av_read_fram() function ? pipe is in non_blocking mode.

• ffmpeg in child process doesn't exit when parent closes pipe

  28 mars 2013, par user2221129

  This code snippet is from a pthread process. It is responsible for reading configuration/options to pass to ffmpeg. The data piped to ffmpeg is coming in on a ring buffer of video frames (as a proof of concept, in the final implementation these would be coming from a camera device). The parent writes to the child via a pipe established with dup2. The problem I'm having is that most of the time, the ffmpeg process doesn't seem to recognize the pipe has been closed by the parent (as strace shows the ffmpeg is in read). There are probably some unhandled mutex situations.

  I've embedded comments and questions in the thread's parent code after the frame buffer read/write loop.

  Hope I've provided enough detail - stackoverflow posting noob ! Thank you.

  I'm trying to get the dimensions of a video with ffmpeg. I use the command ffprobe video.mov to get the following data :

  Now I want to pipe that into a regex to just get 502x288 on the fourth last line.

  I've seen some solutions with python and perl, but I want this to be in plain bash. How would I go about this ?
