• How to process video stream ?

  27 avril 2016, par sharpener

  I would like to ask some experienced multimedia professional how to proceed with following task :

  Given URL provides video stream and we would like to get access to decoded frames (byte stream in memory) in managed Win7+ application (C#). We don’t want to render/present the frames the standard way. The video format is known but not fixed (might get changed between two successive sessions, but we will know the parameters).

  So far, I have found there are several methods and I have build following picture in my mind :

  1. ffmpeg wrapper
     • Pros
       1. Self contained (no dependency to windows technologies)
       2. Powerful
     • Cons
       1. Little more complex to understand
       2. Lot of different wrapping variants (FFmpeg.NET, ffmpeg-sharp, ffmpeg-shard, FFmpeg.AutoGen, ...)
  2. DirectShow wrapper
     • Pros
       1. Widely used/supported technology (variaous filters freely available)
       2. Nice/detailed documentation on MSDN
     • Cons
       1. Quite old
       2. Considered obsolete from the point of author’s view (available only for desktop model on runtime >= Win8)
  3. MediaFoundation wrapper
     • Pros
       1. Theoretical successor of DirectShow, so should be available in the future
     • Cons
       1. Seems to be not as good as DirectShow
       2. Not very popular, limited "community" support
  4. FFmpegInterop wrapper
     • Pros
       1. Microsoft’s open source wrapper alternative
     • Cons
       1. Not available for runtime < Win8

• NodeJS - Looking for faster ways to create FFMPEG thumbnails

  18 mars 2016, par RunningFromShia

  I am using fluent-ffmpeg and ffmpeg in node :

  var ffmpeg = require('fluent-ffmpeg');
  
  var src = "http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/7/79/Big_Buck_Bunny_small.ogv";
  
  ffmpeg(src)
  
  .on('filenames', function(filenames) {
  
      console.log('Will generate ' + filenames.join(', ') + ' into tempfiles.')
  
  })
  
  .on('end', function() {
  
      console.log('1 Screenshot successfully taken');
  
  
  
  })
  
  .on('error', function(err, stdout, stderr) {
  
  console.log("ffmpeg stdout:\n" + stdout);
  
  console.log("ffmpeg stderr:\n" + stderr);
  
  })
  
  .screenshots({
  
      filename: randomResult,
  
      timemarks: [520.929831],
  
      folder: '/'
  
  });

  Usually, it takes 2-3 seconds to take one thumbnail.
  I need it to be 0.5-1 seconds for real-time development. I mean, what is the problem here - downloading a single png file on my computer takes way below 2-3 seconds to complete, why is ffmpeg lagging so much ? something just doesn’t seem right.
