[00:00] <eok> ahh, but i could use -map in the third command maybe?
[00:00] <eok> ffmpeg -i audio.mp3 -itsoffset 1.5 -i desktop.flv -map 1.0 -vf ...
[00:01] <eok> then output like this in the first command: desktop.flv -acodec copy audio.mp3
[00:01] <eok> would that work?
[00:14] <atlithorn1> hi burek, I added to http://ffmpeg.org/trac/ffmpeg/ticket/1400
[00:14] <burek> oh, ok, I'll take a look :)
[00:15] <burek> oh the killer cmd line :D
[00:15] <atlithorn1> :)
[00:15] <pasteeater> eok: see the -map documentation http://ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg.html#Advanced-options
[00:15] <eok> yea, i looked at that
[00:16] <atlithorn1> burek, just wondering if you had any idea for a workaround
[00:17] <eok> i'm gonna try to map just video to the desktop.flv in the third command
[00:17] <eok> like this: ffmpeg -i audio.mp3 -itsoffset 1.5 -i desktop.flv -map 1.0 -vf ...
[00:18] <eok> or 1:v
[00:20] <burek> well, atlithorn1, I've stumbled upon the command line while helping a guy here
[00:20] <burek> so I wasn't really experimenting too much with it
[00:21] <burek> I tried it 2-3 times and every time it crashed my machine
[00:21] <burek> so I said 'nuf is 'nuf :)
[00:21] <atlithorn1> yeah you were helping me :)
[00:21] <burek> oh, it was you :D
[00:21] <burek> lolita :D
[00:21] <burek> cool :D
[00:21] <atlithorn1> it seems to crash at the end of the shortest file
[00:22] <burek> yes, that's what I've figured too
[00:23] <atlithorn1> should this be a new ticket or just keep it like it is
[00:23] <atlithorn1> because the initial problem was solved by nicola
[00:23] <atlithorn1> s
[00:24] <burek> it should be separate I guess
[00:24] <burek> but I just didn't have patience to deal with it anymore
[00:24] <burek> because I had like 20 windows opened
[00:24] <atlithorn1> no prob, I'll write it up
[00:24] <burek> when it first crashed
[00:24] <burek> so I was pretty nervous after that :)
[00:25] <atlithorn1> exactly, it's a pretty serious crash I would hope the developers take notice
[00:25] <burek> they did :)
[00:25] <burek> the first patch shows it :)
[00:25] <atlithorn1> yeah they reacted to the segfault
[00:26] <atlithorn1> I'm just a little new to the community and don't want to ruffle any more feathers than I already have :)
[00:26] <atlithorn1> but I'll write it up as a new ticket referring to this one
[00:26] <burek> just write a new one if you have time
[00:26] <burek> feel free, I mean
[00:26] <atlithorn1> i have time, this is pretty important for me
[00:29] <svenstaro> error: AVFormatContext has no member named mux_rate
[00:29] <svenstaro> how to fix in 0.11?
[02:27] <atlithorn1> is it possible to provide a url (rtmp) as a movie source in -vf?
[02:27] <atlithorn1> i have tried but the parser always fails
[02:54] <alfanetwork> what is a good bitrate for WebM at 1080p.
[02:54] <alfanetwork> for youtube. I hate flash
[02:59] <pasteeater> alfanetwork: youtube is going to re-encode whatever you give it so why re-encode it yourself?
[02:59] <alfanetwork> I used x11grab to snag a 1920x1080 -r 30 using x264. Had to edit it in kdenlive and want to export in WebM.
[03:00] <pasteeater> youtube should make a webm out of anything you give it i imagine. you don't have to give it webm specifically for it to make webm.
[03:02] <pasteeater> i'm not familiar with the export capabilities of kdenlive, but i'd probably export from kdenlive as huffyuv and then encode that with ffmpeg (unless kdenlive uses sane encoding settings)
[03:02] <alfanetwork> do I have to re-encode it. Normally I do a ffmpeg -i blah.avi -codec:v copy -codec:a copy out.newContainer
[03:03] <alfanetwork> but since I have edit the video in kdenlive I am not sure what to do. Anybody have any ideas?
[03:04] <pasteeater> 1. import the video into kdenlive
[03:04] <pasteeater> 2. edit in kdenlive
[03:04] <alfanetwork> ok
[03:04] <pasteeater> 3. export from kdenlive...
[03:05] <pasteeater> but i don't know how good kdenlive is at that. hell, i'll just install the bastard
[03:06] <pasteeater> i just don't know if kdenlive uses shitty "presets" or is more flexible
[03:09] <alfanetwork> pasteeater it looks like it does use crap presets. It also looks like I have to re-compress my video?
[03:09] <alfanetwork> but I can make my own presets
[03:10] <alfanetwork> would be nice if I could just stuff the cut of video into a new container.
[03:14] <pasteeater> im still downloading it
[03:17] <alfanetwork> wow you are downloading kdenlive? Thx, they say its by far the best video editing suit for linux. Got to admit its got some advance (nice) stuff
[03:27] <pasteeater> alfanetwork: my ffmpeg is too new for their x264 settings
[03:27] <alfanetwork> yeah same here.
[03:27] <alfanetwork> I wish I could export this uncompressed and them compress it with ffmpeg that I have compiled =/
[03:28] <pasteeater> how does their File rendering -> H.264 preset look?
[03:28] <alfanetwork> Ill look ... one sec
[03:28] <pasteeater> you can. change Destination to Lossless / HQ then pick FFV1 or HuffYUV.
[03:29] <pasteeater> and then: ffmpeg -i huffyuv.avi -c:v libx264 -preset medium -crf 18 -c:a libfaac 100 output.mp4
[03:30] <alfanetwork> pasteeater looks like this http://pastebin.com/JKa4UabR
[03:30] <pasteeater> change -preset to veryslow if you're patient or if upload file size is important
[03:31] <alfanetwork> dang!! HuffYUV nice... ok a bit big for my SSD but whatever =)
[03:31] <pasteeater> yeah, but it's a temporary file
[03:31] <alfanetwork> dont tell anybody I like HuffYUV
[03:31] <alfanetwork> ;)
[03:31] <pasteeater> what's wrong with huffyuv?
[03:31] <pasteeater> i use it on occasion
[03:31] <alfanetwork> Evil ppl made it as far as I know
[03:32] <pasteeater> news to me
[03:32] <alfanetwork> OK then it all good =)
[03:32] <alfanetwork> nice color space
[03:33] <alfanetwork> but if I want to save this to WebM with vorbis should I do it the way you said up there???
[03:34] <alfanetwork> the output.mp4 I was looking at
[03:34] <pasteeater> if the kdenlive preset looks fine use it, otherwise export to a lossless intermediate file and use ffmpeg.
[03:35] <alfanetwork> yeah its going to be the lossless intermediated then a non retarded version of ffmpeg
[03:36] <alfanetwork> Just how big will a 15min video be with huffyuv. I am using a 120GB SSD vertex 3
[03:37] <alfanetwork> about 30GB left
[03:38] <pasteeater> i'm not sure
[03:38] <pasteeater> too bad the hard drive prives are still high. i could use 6 more 2 TB drives.
[03:41] <alfanetwork> lol, that would cost a bit if you wanted to use SSD. Never thought I would. I am "old school" but when I tried this one out and it was hitting 556 MB/s (not the much for compressed video) I could not say no. Going to buy a bunch of cheap normal disks to put my video on when I got the cash.
[03:43] <alfanetwork> By the way I work in Thailand at times. All the flood story BS was just a ploy to jack up the prices on HDD. Know ppl who work in that branch.
[03:43] <alfanetwork> Sure a few factories were mess up but not 1/10th as bad as they told consumers.
[03:46] <pasteeater> alfanetwork: yeah, i was skeptical.
[03:46] <pasteeater> and prices will stay high because we will buy them
[03:47] <alfanetwork> I hate it when lies become so called truths in the name of ripping ppl off.
[03:47] <furan> fuck the man, man
[03:48] <alfanetwork> word
[03:48] <pasteeater> the roommates have been using the same towel in the bathroom for 278 days.
[03:48] <pasteeater> i want to see how long it will last
[03:48] <pasteeater> </complain>
[03:49] <alfanetwork> OMG I hope they dont share that towel!
[03:49] <pasteeater> it's the hand towel
[03:50] <alfanetwork> Just for lulz you should put mayonnaise on it and put it back on the hook. Have a feeling somebody will throw it out then.
[03:52] <pasteeater> or white glue
[03:52] <alfanetwork> nice
[03:54] <pasteeater> and an akward hush falls over the IRC room
[04:06] <alfanetwork> pasteeater no I was putting glue in my room rates socks that he keeps leaving on the floor.
[04:08] <alfanetwork> see if he keep leaving socks around. made a cup of coffee and a bottle of Elmer's Glue was sitting in the hall. Had a little chuckle and went back to the computer.
[04:09] <alfanetwork> collage life. Its normal.
[04:10] <alfanetwork> Even if I am working on my post doctorate ... I hope its normal.
[04:12] <alfanetwork> Well its 4:00 am here in Norway. Prolly should get some sleep. Thx for he help.
[06:24] <raptor67682> Hi, got found back a very old cdrom with pics and so on. I would like to ask how to fix a video avi that has corrupted data (scratches cd) ? I seems that at some parts damaged.begin. and end there is 0 bits
[13:13] <simran> hi
[13:13] <simran> im facing some issue im ffmpeg configuration
[13:14] <simran> please find config.err file at http://paste.ubuntu.com/1026625/
[13:14] <simran> any suggestion please
[13:14] <ubitux> please upgrade
[13:14] <ubitux> we are in 0.11
[13:14] <ubitux> you are using 0.5 which is years old
[13:46] <simran> @ubitex : but i can build the same version package for x86 arch
[13:46] <sacarasc> simran: Did you look at the error at the end?
[13:47] <ubitux> /tmp/ffconf.GBlItiGi.c:1:18: error: faad.h: No such file or directory
[13:47] <simran> yes its says error caused due to faad.h
[13:47] <simran> yes exacty
[13:47] <sacarasc> And do you have an arm version of faad.h?
[13:47] <Mavrik> (why do you even need faad?)
[13:48] <simran> i dont know anything about faad n why it is being compiled for arm
[13:48] <Mavrik> since ffmpeg has AAC decoder built in for awhile now
[13:51] <simran> please suggest what should i do?
[13:51] <Mavrik> I haven't seen the start of the conversation so I have no idea what do you want to do.
[13:52] <simran> @Mavrik: im facing some issue im ffmpeg configuration
[13:52] <simran> please find config.err file at http://paste.ubuntu.com/1026625/
[13:52] <Mavrik> why are you trying to build ffmpeg with faad?
[13:53] <Mavrik> that's obsolete for some years now
[13:53] <simran> @Mavrik : its automated
[13:53] <Mavrik> and why are you trying to build 6 versions old ffmpeg?
[13:54] <Mavrik> simran: well then your first task is to find out what exactly are you trying to do and what your requirements are
[13:54] <simran> actually i am builing openembedded for arm arch ... while builing i got this error for ffmpeg...
[13:55] <simran> and this is only package i have with me
[13:57] <Mavrik> well
[13:57] <Mavrik> you're missing libfaad headers
[13:57] <Mavrik> probably libfaad itself
[13:58] <simran> ok .. if i build the latest version of ffmpeg.. then will it effect any other package ?
[13:59] <Mavrik> probably
[13:59] <simran> which could be of older version
[13:59] <Mavrik> if any libraries link to ffmpeg libraries, they probably won't compile since ffmpeg has changed alot since 0.5
[14:00] <simran> ok first  go with latest one ..
[14:01] <simran> :q!
[14:01] <Mavrik> simran: I think it's way easier for you to grab libfaad and build it
[14:03] <simran> @Mavrik: ok i will check libfaad .. if not then other option
[14:03] <simran> thanks :)
[14:10] <corecode> hi there
[14:11] <corecode> any idea how i could estimate my decoder latency?
[14:11] <corecode> i'm experiencing about 200ms latency with this code, but i don't know where it comes from:
[14:11] <corecode> https://github.com/corecode/spdif-loop/blob/master/spdif-loop.c
[14:17] <Mavrik> corecode: hardware buffer + alsa buffer + demuxer buffer + your buffer + decoder buffer + your buffer
[14:17] <Mavrik> is usually the chain
[14:25] <corecode> hmmm
[14:26] <corecode> i just added a simple peak output display
[14:26] <corecode> seems it is in the output path
[14:26] <corecode> not in the input/decode
[14:26] <corecode> so libao is either slow, or something else
[14:26] <corecode> pluse, audio...
[14:26] <corecode> alsa, audio...
[14:26] <corecode> hmmm
[14:27] <corecode> playing audio via libavdevice didn't strike me as simple
[14:27] <corecode> or am i missing something?
[14:27] <corecode> do i have to run the data through an encoder?
[14:37] <Mavrik> corecode: not really
[14:37] <Mavrik> corecode: you get raw audio samples after decoding
[14:37] <Mavrik> and then you have to somehow play it, which depends on which audio output library do you want to use
[14:38] <corecode> right
[14:38] <corecode> i chose libao
[14:39] <corecode> but it adds some massive latency
[14:40] <eok> i'm trying to send something i encode to two outputs, but for some reason its not sending the same outputs
[14:40] <eok> http://paste.kde.org/494090/
[14:40] <eok> anyone know why?
[14:42] <eok> how can i copy what is being sent to output 1 to output2?
[14:42] <Mavrik> eok: same in which way?
[14:43] <eok> if you look at whats in Stream #0:0 compared to Stream 1:0
[14:44] <eok> Stream #1:0 doesnt show the overlay, and its not using the video codec etc
[14:44] <eok> its like it takes just this: ffmpeg -f alsa -i pulse -f x11grab -s 1680x1050 -r 30 -i :0.0+0,0
[14:44] <eok> and skips the rest
[14:46] <Mavrik> eok: afaik the video filter settings are per-output stream
[14:46] <Mavrik> eok: size as well (if you see your size is wrong)
[14:46] <Mavrik> so you have to repeat the setting in second output specification
[14:46] <eok> ok, so i need it for both outputs then
[14:46] <eok> thanks ill try
[14:48] <eok> sigh
[14:48] <Mavrik> there there ;)
[14:48] <eok> but then /dev/video0 gets hogged by the first
[14:48] <Mavrik> it shouldn't
[14:48] <Mavrik> (don't repeat the input spec)
[14:48] <eok> http://paste.kde.org/494096/
[14:49] <eok> it's an input in the -vf
[14:49] <eok> the webcam
[14:49] <Mavrik> ah, yeah :\
[14:50] <eok> there must be some way to just take everything thats being sent to the output, and writing that to a file
[14:50] <eok> seems so trivial
[14:51] <Mavrik> it... kinda isn't :\
[14:51] <Mavrik> eok: possibility would be to decode/grab/filter in one ffmpeg instance and piping raw video to another ffmpeg instance that does the encoding
[14:52] <eok> hmm
[14:52] <eok> yea
[14:54] <Mavrik> I don't know how well piping raw video works though :)
[14:54] <eok> so pipe: | ffmpeg
[14:54] <eok> but what is the input then?
[14:54] <Mavrik> something like
[14:56] <Mavrik> ffmpeg -i file -vf "..., scale=543:584" -f rawvideo - | ffmpeg -f rawvideo  -i - -vcodec <first encode> file1  -vcodec <second encode> file2
[14:56] <Mavrik> (check up on exact syntax, I might be wrong)
[14:56] <eok> ill test it
[14:57] <Mavrik> (if you have audio you might have to use separate pipes)
[14:58] <eok> it just stopped..
[14:58] <eok> ill try without audio
[15:00] <eok> it says rawvideo: No such file or directory
[15:00] <eok> :)
[15:01] <Mavrik> forgot -f?
[15:01] <eok> http://paste.kde.org/494126/
[15:01] <eok> hmm
[15:01] <eok> lol yea
[15:02] <eok> i messed up :)
[15:03] <eok> http://paste.kde.org/494132/
[15:03] <eok> hmmm
[15:08] <eok> maybe sending to a fifo, then using that as the input?
[15:14] <Mavrik> possibly
[15:39] <corecode> what's the default channel layout?
[15:39] <corecode> i mean, what's the sequence of channels decoded
[15:39] <corecode> if i have a 5.1 layout?
[15:45] <corecode> rather, channel order
[17:20] <eok> Marvik: finally got it to work.. seems stable
[17:20] <eok> Marvik: http://paste.kde.org/494192/
[17:26] <Mavrik> o
[17:26] <Mavrik> great :)
[17:26] <eok> one strange thing
[17:26] <eok> i audio is in sync the first minute, then starts lagging behind
[17:27] <eok> i set itsoffset, it gets in sync after a while, and seems to stay in sync
[17:27] <Mavrik> eok: that's because you're encoding everything twice
[17:27] <Mavrik> eok: in second ffmpeg you should do juc
[17:27] <eok> fuu, no it doesnt stay in sync
[17:27] <Mavrik> just
[17:27] <Mavrik> ffmpeg -i - -codec copy -f flv tcp://...
[17:29] <eok> ahh, testing now :)
[17:39] <eok> this time its actually the video that falls behind
[17:39] <eok> actually the webcam falls behind, the desktop is fine
[17:40] <eok> must have something to do with -vf
[17:40] <Mavrik> hmm
[17:40] <Mavrik> can your computer keep up to encoding?
[17:40] <eok> i think so.. its using about 50-60% CPU
[17:41] <eok> i think this is the problem i've had all the time
[17:42] <eok> its using more time encoding the webcam as the overlay then the rest
[17:42] <eok> maybe it goes at a different fps?
[17:48] <eok> set the option "fps" in the filter
[17:48] <eok> 4 minutes, can't see any lag yet :)
[17:51] <eok> 7:30 still no lag, woohoo think i fixed it :)
[17:54] <Rp4k> all hail the gods of ffmpeg
[17:55] <Rp4k> i need to ask a question to a guru
[17:59] <Mavrik> well
[17:59] <Mavrik> g'luck.
[17:59] <Mavrik> :D
[17:59] <Rp4k> i have taken a video (special video)  with photo booth in OSX.   then my laptop lost power so the application forced closed.  i was able to save the .mov file but its corrupted.  i have tried. every software even ffmpeg for OSX. Gui version.    but they all say the file is not a video file..   this company made a GUI software that can repair the archive and it uses ffmpeg and mencode (  http://grauonline.de/cmsimple2_6/en/?Solutions:HD_Video_Repair_Utility )   sad
[17:59] <Rp4k>  software is not freeware even tho the core components are freeware  .  so in the end i am only apple to recover about 50% of the video file.   i need some help trying to get the full video file .  is there anyone that can help me compile ffmpeg on my OSX 10.7 machine.. for some reason i am missing Compiler on here.  any help would be nice.. i have been googling for the last 3 days
[18:00] <cbsrobot> Rp4k: http://ffmpeg.org/trac/ffmpeg/wiki/MacOSXCompilationGuide
[18:01] <Rp4k> i got this when trying to compile
[18:01] <Rp4k> RP4K:ffmpeg2 rp4k$ ./configure --enable-libmp3lame --enable-shared --disable-mmx --arch=x86_64
[18:01] <Rp4k> gcc is unable to create an executable file.
[18:01] <Rp4k> If gcc is a cross-compiler, use the --enable-cross-compile option.
[18:01] <Rp4k> Only do this if you know what cross compiling means.
[18:01] <Rp4k> C compiler test failed.
[18:02] <cbsrobot> Rp4k: just type ./configure
[18:02] <Rp4k> i need faac
[18:02] <Rp4k> i installed faac or think i did i downloaded it and did the class install
[18:02] <Rp4k> but when i try to enable it.. it says i can't
[18:03] <cbsrobot> see config.log for hints
[18:03] <Rp4k> so i should grab xcode
[18:03] <Rp4k> huh
[18:04] <cbsrobot> sure
[18:07] <Rp4k> well cbsrobot
[18:07] <Rp4k> ./configure --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libfaac --enable-shared --disable-mmx --arch=x86_64
[18:07] <Rp4k> but it fails on libfaac
[18:08] <Rp4k> ./configure --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libfaac --enable-cross-compile --enable-shared --disable-mmx --arch=x86_64
[18:08] <Rp4k> opps
[18:13] <cbsrobot> Rp4k: so what does config.log say ?
[18:14] <Rp4k> compile error
[18:14] <Rp4k> because i don't have XCode
[18:14] <Rp4k> and Xcode will take forever to download from apple :(
[18:14] <cbsrobot> Rp4k: sure use thepiratebay !
[18:14] <Rp4k> torrents don't work where i live
[18:14] <Rp4k> or at least not well
[18:15] <cbsrobot> Rp4k: usa ?
[18:15] <Rp4k> nope
[18:15] <Mavrik> Rp4k: https://github.com/kennethreitz/osx-gcc-installer/downloads
[18:15] <Mavrik> OS X GCC installer that doesn't need you to download whole Xcode
[18:15] <Rp4k> i have no terminal skills so this project is extremely hard for me to do
[18:15] <Rp4k> :(
[18:16] <Rp4k> i still want to know how i installed faac wrong or why it fails out
[18:16] <Rp4k> RP4K:ffmpeg2 rp4k$ ./configure --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libfaad --enable-libfaac --enable-shared --disable-mmx --arch=x86_64
[18:16] <Rp4k> Unknown option "--enable-libfaad"
[18:16] <Rp4k> why would it say that
[18:18] <Mavrik> FAAD isn't needed (and thus supported) anymore in new versions
[18:18] <Rp4k> so i shouldn't need it to fix this .mov file that i took in photobooth
[18:19] <Rp4k> i wish the gui version of ffmpeg would read this video file idk why it says its not supported
[18:19] <Rp4k> how about faac
[18:19] <Rp4k> Mavrik
[18:20] <Mavrik> faac is audio encoder

[18:20] <Rp4k> ok so i just need this .pkg and install that.. to get c compiler to stop failing
[18:21] <Rp4k> then i guess i need to find the command to extract the video and audio and then recompile them together in a new .mov file because i think the problem with the movie is the index headers or the container is all fucked up
[18:21] <Rp4k> bah he left
[18:21] <Rp4k> :(
[18:44] <Rp4k> still can't compile?
[18:48] <Rp4k> got it compiling
[18:53] <Rp4k> i get this error in red.
[18:53] <Rp4k> [mov,mp4,m4a,3gp,3g2,mj2 @ 0x7fecfa00b000] moov atom not found
[18:57] <cbsrobot> Rp4k: well thats what Quicktime tells you aswell
[18:57] <Rp4k> yup
[18:57] <Rp4k> i hate  grauonline.de
[18:57] <Rp4k> they should make there software for free
[19:25] <dtingstrom> hello, trying to compile ffmpeg in LGPL form. But getting the message "openssl is nonfree and --enable-nonfree is not specified."
[19:27] <dtingstrom> compiling in windows, using mingw
[19:55] <Rp4k> dtingstrom
[19:55] <Rp4k> when you are typing ./configure  you need to add --enable-nofree
[19:55] <Rp4k> when you are typing ./configure  you need to add --enable-nonfree
[20:05] <relaxed> pasteeater: pong
[20:07] <pasteeater> relaxed: any plans on updating the static build? (I think i asked this before, but then got disconnected)
[20:17] <dtingstrom> Rp4k, the ffmpeg website says not to include --enable-nonfree for the LGPL version
[20:17] <Rp4k> well if the program is spitting out please add it then whats the harm
[20:17] <Rp4k> to try
[21:25] <bencahill> Hey guys, I encoded some videos with ffmpeg (using WinFF), and some of them have 14-15 extra frames at the end, seemingly having duplicated the last 14-15 frames. Any ideas why this might happen?
[21:37] <pasteeater> what WinFF preset was it? just paste the preset details here or on pastebin.com if it's long
[21:37] <pasteeater> bencahill: and provide the ffmpeg console output as well if possible
[21:37] <pasteeater> and what player are you using? does it work as expected with ffplay?
[21:38] <pasteeater> ffplay input.foo
[21:42] <bencahill> pasteeater: -f dvd -target ntsc-dvd -r 29.97 -s 720x480 -aspect 16:9 -b 8000kb -g 12 -mbd rd -trellis -mv0 -cmp 0 -subcmp 2
[21:43] <bencahill> pasteeater: I saw it on an actual DVD player (burned one without realizing the problem), and VirtualDub, and confirmed the frame counts with GSpot
[21:48] <pasteeater> you could try ffmpeg directly (WinFF isn't part of the FFmpeg project, although Big Matt is a friendly dude).
[21:49] <pasteeater> ffmpeg -i input -target ntsc-dvd output.mpg
[21:49] <pasteeater> you don't need the other options as most are covered by -target ntsc-dvd
[21:50] <bencahill> mmkay
[21:50] <pasteeater> the console output might show something of interest
[21:50] <bencahill> Right, my thought as well ;)
[21:50] <pasteeater> and if your ffmpeg is ass old then use something recent
[21:51] <pasteeater> since development is very active
[21:52] <bencahill> This one (windows) says N-35509-gfd36cbf-Sherpya
[21:53] <pasteeater> get a new one
[21:53] <pasteeater> http://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/
[21:53] <pasteeater> we are now at ~41325
[21:54] <milehigh> I'm trying to find the culprit of why streaming to my xbox 360 stops working, I have narrowed it down to a set of package updates that occurred a few weeks ago, one of which is ffmpeg, can someone look at this paste and tell me if it looks like a ffmpeg bug? http://fpaste.org/vCg9/
[21:55] <milehigh> The top packages are the updates that cause streaming to stop working, bottom packages are what I downgrade to to make it work, and the last line is the error in my servers logs
[21:57] <pasteeater> milehigh: i know nothing about xbox, but can you just reupgrade ffmpeg (and any dependencies it requires) to help eliminate the other unrelated packages as the issue?
[21:58] <milehigh> pasteeater: I've gone as far as I can in that regard, those all need to be installed in one shot
[22:01] <milehigh> http://ffmpeg.org/trac/ffmpeg/ticket/1104 ?
[22:12] <zachmillman> Hi, I'm having trouble setting up ffmpeg and x264 on Ubuntu 1..04
[22:12] <zachmillman> *11.04
[22:12] <zachmillman> when I try running ffmpeg, I get "ffmpeg: error while loading shared libraries: libx264.so.125: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"
[22:18] <Mavrik> you're missing that .so file obviously.
[22:19] <Mavrik> is it in your library search paths?
[22:19] <zachmillman> how do I check that?
[22:20] <Mavrik> um
[22:20] <Mavrik> find the file?
[22:22] <zachmillman> okay, found it -- it's at /usr/local/lib/libx264.so.125
[22:28] <kaneda^> hey all, any idea why using ffmpeg2theora would give me a green bar at the bottom of the video?
[22:29] <zachmillman> sweet! looks like it works now. In case anyone's googling this in the future, just run "sudo ldconfig `locate libx264.so.125`"
[22:30] <N0hbdy> hey all; I was using ffmpeg's -vstats option, and I noticed that it seems to always start at frame 57.  Is there a reason that the first frames are skipped?
[22:42] <smjms> kaneda, what's the resolution of the video?
[22:53] <kaneda^> smjms, it only happens w/ one video
[22:54] <kaneda^> i'm not sure what the res is
[23:00] <pasteeater> milehigh: i just closed that ticket as fixed since it works for me on recent ffmpeg
[23:01] <pasteeater> i dont know what it came out that way. i didn't close it. i meant the ticket has been closed as fixed and it works for me on recent ffmpeg
[23:14] <pasteeater> N0hbdy: you mean in the log file?
[23:27] <milehigh> pasteeater: yes, works for me as well with that input file, but that definitely indicates theres a regression in ffmpeg somewhere
[23:28] <pasteeater> maybe a regression, but one that has been fixed according to the bug ticket
[23:29] <pasteeater> use a pastebin site to show your ffmpeg command and the complete console output (if you're actually using ffmpeg to encode, i'm not totally sure what your workflow is)
[23:36] <N0hbdy> pasteeater: yea, the logfile only starts at frame 57
[23:36] <N0hbdy> but doesn't seem to go passed the last frame by 57 to compensate, if that makes sense
[23:37] <milehigh> pasteeater: mencoder using pastebin:
[23:37] <milehigh> http://pastebin.com/8e1FZmdW
[23:37] <milehigh> err, mencoder using ffmpeg
[23:37] <milehigh> usually automated, but that paste shows it manually run
[23:38] <milehigh> the last messages are spammed to the console about a million times
[23:59] Action: chandoo is back (gone 00:18:06)
