[00:29] <jerit> Hi
[00:30] <jerit> Where can i find a ffmpeg build for w32 which allow -b:v and -er params?
[00:32] <jerit> durandal11707: new versions gives me Unrecognized option 'b:v'
[00:33] <durandal11707> not for me
[00:33] <durandal11707> from where you download "new versions"?
[00:34] <jerit> from zeranoe
[00:34] <jerit> http://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/
[00:37] <jerit> I'm trying to run this command http://pastie.org/7554971 where {value} are set by the dvb program
[03:12] <sheena1> Hi there, I'm looking for some help figuring out how best to process about 40gb of raw *.MTS video. I'd like to preserve quality, and most of the video involves a dog moving around the space. The camera doesn't move much. Anyway, I'm not sure what I should work hard to keep, what I can compress more, etc. Any assistance is much appreciated!
[08:47] <jacobs1> Hi, I have a process that generates bmp images and I need to create a video stream from these images, this is the command I am trying: http://pastebin.com/dCBDCuaZ but it seems that ffmpeg is just stuck and his memory consumption is growing fast, what is the correct command I should use ?
[08:55] <jacobs1> actualy i was mistaking its not bmp its raw rgb data

[13:26] <langoliers> hey
[13:26] <langoliers> How to Deal with Stupid Drivers !!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQ71Aa-qCR8 :)
[13:27] <langoliers> :) is this from some film?
[14:17] <funyun> hi. is there any way to repair a corrupted .mov file using ffmpeg?
[15:11] Last message repeated 1 time(s).
[15:15] <spaam> define corrupted?
[15:29] <funyun> spaam: it plays on my iphone. but doesn't play on my computer. i think it saved wrong
[15:31] <klaxa> what player are you using?
[15:34] <funyun> all. i've tried vlc, mplayer, quicktime, xbmc
[15:34] <funyun> klaxa: i found some software that works. but it only works for the first 10 minutes. and the full version costs $100. which is too much for one video imo
[15:35] <klaxa> have you tried ffplay?
[15:35] <funyun> i'm hoping ffmpeg can do what the software does
[15:35] <funyun> klaxa: i'll try now
[15:35] <funyun> ah, seems i don't have ffplay :'(
[15:37] <klaxa> you could try to just remux the file
[15:37] <klaxa> ffmpeg -i myfile.mov -c copy myfile.mkv
[15:38] <funyun> i get [mov,mp4,m4a,3gp,3g2,mj2 @ 0x7ffb6b00ae00] moov atom not found
[15:38] <spaam> aha. so moov atom is missing.
[15:39] <funyun> can that be fixed?
[15:39] <JEEB> you would have to have a specific app for that basically
[15:39] <JEEB> and at best it would be a guess
[15:39] <JEEB> the moov atom is basically the "index" of the file
[15:40] <JEEB> so if it is missing you are basically having a lot of binary data that contains something
[15:40] <funyun> oh i see. do you think all of these apps cost?
[15:40] <JEEB> no idea
[15:40] <spaam> funyun: reading http://blog.alwayshere.info/2011/01/ffmpeg-moov-atom-not-found.html   http://atomicparsley.sourceforge.net might can fix it
[15:40] <JEEB> yes, some guessing and manual labor /can/ help
[15:40] <JEEB> but it would be guesswork as well, more or less
[15:41] <fatpony> i asked before but i didn't really find any decent solution, is it possible to apply a filter to only one section of the video?
[15:42] <funyun> spaam: i'll try this now. thanks
[15:42] <fatpony> the only workaround i have found is splitting the input, decoding to named pipes with rawvideo and concatenating that
[15:43] <fatpony> i am not even sure the audio will still be synced after that
[15:49] <funyun> spaam: i get "AtomicParsley error: Quicktime movie files are not supported". thanks anyway
[17:21] <fling> May I autocrop video somehow while remuxing it to mkv without reencoding?
[17:46] <teratorn> fling: well I'm not sure, but it seems like most any cropping would necessitate reencoding
[17:47] <fling> teratorn: but mkv container may crop video streams
[17:47] <teratorn> oh it's a virtual crop?
[17:47] <fling> teratorn: same as aspect ratio :D
[17:48] <teratorn> ok, well I don't know then :)
[17:48] <fling> I just want an autocrop, do not want to crop manually
[17:56] <samsun216> Hi all. I have a problem with installing ffmpeg on Ubuntu 10.04 lucid. 'make' gives an error : http://pastebin.com/AGkqrL7K
[20:20] <filetree> need some help with ffprobe and drawtext
[20:30] <filetree> any good way to take the pict_type= and display that with drawtext?
[20:31] <ubitux> filetree: we could add a function to print it, along with various other information
[20:33] <filetree> would be nice to have the pict_type from ffprobe in ffmpeg
[20:33] <filetree> and be able to use that with drawtext
[20:33] <ubitux> pict_type is not a ffprobe feature, but i get what you mean
[20:34] <ubitux> 'care to open a ticket on trac?
[20:34] <filetree> its in the -show_frames
[20:34] <filetree> thats what i meant :D
[20:35] <filetree> sure, link?
[20:35] <ubitux> !trac
[20:35] <ubitux> mmh.
[20:36] <ubitux> here ^
[20:36] <filetree> thanks
[20:37] <ubitux> drawtext has access to the picture type
[20:37] <filetree> oh it does?
[20:37] <filetree> i could only find frame number
[20:37] <filetree> not type
[20:37] <ubitux> yes but there is no way currently to print it :)
[20:38] <filetree> hah nice
[20:38] <filetree> is there a feature request on the trac or just post as a bug?
[20:38] <ubitux> "enhancement'
[20:39] <ubitux> you should have such control
[20:39] <filetree> never used trac before, so total noob running around here :D
[20:40] <filetree> working with someone on a testing x264 app to test ranges of parameters and wanna add a scripted way to create frame-type screens of 20+ encodes
[20:41] <ubitux> if you want to just see it, a current workaround is to add a showinfo filter in your filtergraph after a drawtext of the frame number
[20:41] <ubitux> and make some comparison
[20:41] <ubitux> ./ffplay ... -vf 'drawtext=text=%{n},showinfo'
[20:41] <ubitux> or something like that
[20:42] <filetree> does show info just shaw all the frame info?
[20:43] <ubitux> yes, on stdout
[20:44] <filetree> hmm
[20:47] <filetree> getting show info is an invalid arugment
[20:47] <filetree> on windows ofc :D
[20:47] <filetree> use %d as frame number
[20:52] <filetree> ok not getting error anymore, but its not printing anything
[20:53] <filetree> its spitting out the show info, just not printing it
[20:53] <filetree> oh i didn't read your first sentence ha
[20:57] <filetree> ok, added a ticket
[20:57] <filetree> lemme know if i need to be more specific or anything
[21:03] <ubitux> looks ok
[22:00] <Sashmo_> hey guys, anyone know if there is a way to add external time sync to ffmpeg encoding
