[00:00:02 CET] <thebombzen> yea they're both fine
[00:00:05 CET] <JEEB> since the difference between samples is a duration of the sample
[00:00:13 CET] <thebombzen> but it's not "monotonic"
[00:00:21 CET] <thebombzen> I mean it turns out the timestamps are monotonic
[00:00:37 CET] <JEEB> yes, that was incorrect
[00:01:02 CET] <JEEB> what I mean was that the difference between two samples' timestamps would always be static (aka the duration of all samples is the same)
[00:01:50 CET] <nyuszika7h> there must be something at the beginning of the file, I only see it in a sample if I cut it from there
[00:01:51 CET] <nyuszika7h> https://ptpb.pw/u_FM
[00:02:15 CET] <nyuszika7h> (this one didn't have any options to try to force CFR)
[00:03:15 CET] <nyuszika7h> also if I add "-vsync 1", the only thing that achieves is that it also displays "Original frame rate: 25.000 fps" in addition to "Frame rate mode: Variable"
[00:04:08 CET] <JEEB> oh, matroska. one of the three or so containers where you'll have fun with timestamps (although not necessarily with 25Hz, although I don't remember). MPEG-TS, FLV and Matroska have funky time bases, which often makes even CFR content VFR in them, and you can't do jack about it :P
[00:04:19 CET] <JEEB> that said, you should now be able to calculate the duration of each sample
[00:04:38 CET] <JEEB> do note that those aren't listed in presentation order there
[00:04:41 CET] <nyuszika7h> the original MPEG-2 from the DVD remuxed to MKV is reported as 25 fps CFR
[00:04:43 CET] <JEEB> because of the B-pictures
[00:05:51 CET] <Threads> someone else having problems with cfr i see
[00:06:28 CET] <Threads> i found out if you encode it into a avi container and and mux with mkvmerge its ok but if you try todo it directly into mkv its vfr
[00:07:34 CET] <JEEB> avi input with mkvmerge engages its VFW mode
[00:07:37 CET] <JEEB> that is not something you want
[00:07:59 CET] <JEEB> and your "VFR" issues probably stem from something else although I have no idea if they're issues at all at this point
[00:08:41 CET] <JEEB> unfortunately, it's 1AM here and I really don't have the power of taking newbies up until the "ooh! so *that's* why X is Y!" moment
[00:08:44 CET] <JEEB> g'night
[00:10:08 CET] <Threads> JEEB its ok i prefer going the long way round on things as thats how you learn, also gnight to you
[00:11:53 CET] <nyuszika7h> hmm yes I can see many timecodes increasing by +80 or +120 instead of +40
[00:12:16 CET] <JEEB> nyuszika7h: that's because those timestamps are in coded order, not presentation order
[00:12:23 CET] <nyuszika7h> I sorted them
[00:12:40 CET] <JEEB> then that's weird
[00:13:02 CET] <JEEB> anyways, sleep for me
[00:14:50 CET] <nyuszika7h> https://t.6697.eu/g/file_23639.png
[00:15:52 CET] <nyuszika7h> could that mean dropping frames maybe? I haven't noticed any glitches in the output file though
[00:16:29 CET] <nyuszika7h> the duration is the same though
[01:14:17 CET] <bencc1> what happens to hls stream when there are no packets?
[01:14:42 CET] <bencc1> before the stream starts or when it is paused
[01:15:07 CET] <bencc1> do hls players retry to load the stream every few seconds?
[01:28:50 CET] <hiihiii> hey back again
[01:29:27 CET] <hiihiii> I'm about to encode a loop of some scrolling text on a blue background
[01:31:09 CET] <hiihiii> https://www.filepicker.io/api/file/Unjb5zolR0Wm6RcVQQJo?signature=42321892d789ede2cbb293747c1109195d31ea686510bc44c054694d0726844e&policy=eyJleHBpcnkiOjE0ODk4ODYyNjB9
[01:31:49 CET] <hiihiii> my input is raw. it amounts to 5GB
[01:32:56 CET] <hiihiii> -i input.avi -c:v libx264rgb -preset veryslow -crf 20 output.mp4
[01:33:28 CET] <hiihiii> only one problem left for me. what type of -tune to use
[01:34:16 CET] <hiihiii> I've been using -tune grain for almost everything but I don't know how to differentiate between the different types
[01:35:20 CET] <hiihiii> for my current input, film or grain?
[01:44:16 CET] <c_14> For that I'd use stillimage
[01:47:07 CET] <hiihiii> huh really
[01:47:34 CET] <c_14> Well it's not film and you're not trying to preserve grain so those two are off. Also it is mostly a still image
[01:47:36 CET] <hiihiii> would that yield better results
[01:50:38 CET] <c_14> it might
[02:12:39 CET] <hiihiii> my clip is 60fps and the text kinda scrolls fast, so how is that a still image? yes there are a lot of areas/patches of blue but still
[02:13:39 CET] <hiihiii> anyway, I'd be grateful if someone could point me to a detailed post describing tune presets
[02:42:11 CET] <obamoose> heya
[02:42:49 CET] <obamoose> i'm having an issue with looping
[02:42:53 CET] <obamoose> I used while : do 	my ffmpeg config 	done done
[02:43:14 CET] <obamoose> and now it restarts the stream
[02:43:16 CET] <obamoose> after every file
[02:43:43 CET] <obamoose> http://pastebin.com/yaDHd52k
[03:45:53 CET] <obamoose> anyone?
[05:05:17 CET] <peels> anyone ever compile ffmpeg from source... on a raspberry pi zero?!
[05:05:56 CET] <CoJaBo> I'm not a masochist, so..
[05:09:32 CET] <peels> lol
[05:09:41 CET] <peels> guilty!
[07:42:24 CET] <thebombzen> c_14: I'm not entirely sure when to use -tune stillimage and -tune animation
[07:42:33 CET] <thebombzen> given certain low-motion cell-shaded things
[07:42:48 CET] <thebombzen> how do I know which one is better (other than "just try both")
[08:14:01 CET] <Spring> thebombzen, depends how low motion it is. I use still image for detailed scenes with a fixed camera and only subtle to low movement and it works very well as it reduces the deblocking so more detail is preserved.
[08:14:48 CET] <Spring> on the other hand with more regular movement in the scene and camera the deblocking becomes apparent
[08:15:48 CET] <Spring> I believe the animation tuning does the opposite wrt the deblocking
[08:19:10 CET] <thebombzen> speaking of which, how do we check what the various presets and tunes turn on
[08:28:09 CET] <Spring> thebombzen, this page lists the details from the ffmpeg help (though that command doesn't seem to work on my system, might have changed). https://superuser.com/questions/564402/explanation-of-x264-tune
[08:31:04 CET] <thebombzen> yea, x264 --fullhelp did say it. but unfortunately I don't know how to interpret the deblock or aq setting. I'll have to read more about htat
[10:44:54 CET] <Tom_B> Hi all, I'm using ffmpeg to take a HTTP stream and convert it into a hls stream but it seems to be re-encoding the video and audio: Stream #0:0 -> #0:0 (h264 (native) -> h264 (libx264)) is there any way for it just to pass the video through without re-encoding it?
[11:00:07 CET] <furq> Tom_B: -c copy
[11:10:06 CET] <Tom_B> @furq, thanks :)
[11:52:15 CET] <jaggadak> hello
[11:53:00 CET] <jaggadak> why a little noise is there in between concatenating two videos ?
[12:28:00 CET] Last message repeated 1 time(s).
[13:54:00 CET] <thebombzen_> How does one check x264 settings in an encoded file?
[13:54:22 CET] <thebombzen_> Afaik they're embeded as metadata but idk what they're called
[13:55:07 CET] <BtbN> they don't neccesarily are
[13:55:43 CET] <thebombzen_> Does avformat embed them by default?
[13:55:47 CET] <furq> libx264 does
[13:55:51 CET] <furq> you need to patch it to prevent it
[13:56:32 CET] <thebombzen_> If so furq do you know how to use ffprobe or equiv to extract thrm
[13:56:39 CET] <furq> i don't think ffprobe does it
[13:56:40 CET] <JEEB> strings file |grep x264
[13:56:42 CET] <furq> mediainfo does it
[13:56:47 CET] <furq> or yeah strings will get it out
[13:56:51 CET] <thebombzen_> Mediainfo?
[13:56:54 CET] <thebombzen_> lol strings
[13:57:00 CET] <furq> or if you have some x264 nalu inspector, it's in the sei nalu
[13:57:00 CET] <thebombzen_> I wasn't expecting that
[13:57:09 CET] <JEEB> it's a string in the SEI NALU, so strings should get it :P
[13:57:13 CET] <furq> ^
[13:57:46 CET] <thebombzen_> "sei nalu" welp gtg google that
[13:58:07 CET] <furq> http://vpaste.net/EjdLe
[13:59:31 CET] <thebombzen_> That's useful
[14:00:07 CET] <thebombzen_> Out of curiosity
[14:00:16 CET] <furq> also wrt what you asked last night
[14:00:17 CET] <furq> https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/MeGUI/x264_Settings#aq-mode
[14:01:12 CET] <JEEB> except now we have mode=3 as well :P
[14:01:18 CET] <JEEB> which is a tweaked 2 IIRC
[14:01:24 CET] <furq> well if you have a more up-to-date page i will bookmark it
[14:01:37 CET] <JEEB> not that I know
[14:01:50 CET] <JEEB> but anyways, psychovisual stuff is such a "let's try it out" kind of thing
[14:02:05 CET] <JEEB> since you can't necessarily mathematically note how it's better
[14:02:19 CET] <furq> yeah i rarely touch anything other than preset and tune
[14:04:02 CET] <JEEB> IIRC the reason why aq-mode 3 wasn't made the default was mostly due to "well, we've had 2 around for long enough and we don't want to do extensive testing again welp"
[14:04:21 CET] <thebombzen> so AQ basically allows x264 to look at the video holistically
[14:04:32 CET] <thebombzen> so it doesn't have to quantize each block blindly
[14:04:38 CET] <JEEB> yes
[14:04:42 CET] <furq> aq-mode defaults to 1 doesn't it
[14:04:49 CET] <JEEB> depends on the preset I bet
[14:04:56 CET] <JEEB> since 1 might be faster?
[14:04:57 CET] <furq> apparently it's always 1
[14:05:01 CET] <JEEB> ok
[14:05:04 CET] <furq> but this page might also be outdated
[14:05:14 CET] <furq> 0 in ultrafast, 1 in everything else
[14:05:41 CET] <JEEB> thebombzen: anyways the algorithms behind the AQ methods are various. heck, there used to be a haali AQ which mostly preferred blue to red etc
[14:05:57 CET] <JEEB> and then there was an overcomplicated mess called OreAQ
[14:06:17 CET] <JEEB> from a Japanese guy, which required you to make up a set of values for a specific clip with an AviUtl preview thing
[14:06:20 CET] <JEEB> :D
[14:06:42 CET] <furq> by which point you'd have already finished encoding it with veryslow
[14:07:06 CET] <furq> but you lost out on a 1% space saving so the joke's on you
[14:07:26 CET] <JEEB> then there was a MixAQ which was normal AQ vs Haali's AQ I think?
[14:07:40 CET] <JEEB> and you set the strengths of those two against each other
[14:07:58 CET] <JEEB> I still think a chinese dude is maintaining those patches
[14:08:06 CET] <thebombzen> and aq strenth is just a weight on how much it cares about low-detail sections?
[14:08:36 CET] <JEEB> yea
[14:08:38 CET] <JEEB> more or less
[14:09:32 CET] <thebombzen> wow looking at ultrafast
[14:09:34 CET] <thebombzen> it's a piece of shit
[14:09:40 CET] <furq> yeah
[14:09:40 CET] <thebombzen> but ultra fast
[14:10:24 CET] <furq> even superfast is a big step up
[14:10:33 CET] <thebombzen> yea
[14:10:52 CET] <thebombzen> it seems like ultrafast is only useful if you're on terrible hardware
[14:11:01 CET] <thebombzen> or you're use -qp 0
[14:11:09 CET] <thebombzen> and don't care b/c you're going to transcode it later anyway
[14:11:35 CET] <JEEB> ultrafast is for benchmarks and certain lossless use cases, yes
[14:11:44 CET] <JEEB> similar to placebo in the first case
[14:11:50 CET] <furq> if you're doing 1080p60 and playing league of dotawatch at the same time then i can see superfast being a drag on modest hardware
[14:12:11 CET] <thebombzen> league isn't super cpu-intensive afaik
[14:12:21 CET] <furq> well i should hope not because it's not a real game
[14:12:25 CET] <furq> i just made it up
[14:12:31 CET] <thebombzen> league of legends i mean
[14:12:31 CET] <thebombzen> or dota
[14:12:35 CET] <thebombzen> mobas in general
[14:12:40 CET] <JEEB> he just mashed the three popular things
[14:12:41 CET] <thebombzen> I was under the impression that games with physics simulation were the biggies
[14:12:47 CET] <JEEB> league, dota, overwatch :P
[14:12:54 CET] <thebombzen> oh I didn't even notice the overwatch
[14:12:57 CET] <thebombzen> lol
[14:12:59 CET] <JEEB> but in any case, SW encoding does eat CPU cycles
[14:13:10 CET] <furq> i forgot that card game thing where you have to pay for better cards
[14:13:16 CET] <furq> people fucking love paying to win
[14:13:17 CET] <thebombzen> hearthstone?
[14:13:20 CET] <furq> that's the one
[14:13:36 CET] <thebombzen> Hearthstone is very uninteresting
[14:13:45 CET] <furq> and you don't even get real cards that you can use to scare away any girls who might come near you
[14:13:47 CET] <thebombzen> coming from the persepctive of a magic the gathering player
[14:13:57 CET] <thebombzen> hearthstone is very little skill
[14:14:01 CET] <thebombzen> and has too much RNG
[14:14:13 CET] <thebombzen> and girls who'd be scared away by cards aren't girls I want to hang out with
[14:14:15 CET] <furq> so it's basically mario kart then
[14:14:18 CET] <thebombzen> so I'm cool with that
[14:14:25 CET] <furq> i now see why all the terrible nerds love it
[14:14:28 CET] <thebombzen> well mario cart does take some skill
[14:14:32 CET] <thebombzen> I have no idea how much
[14:14:35 CET] <thebombzen> but all I know is I suck ass at it
[14:14:40 CET] <thebombzen> so it's gotta take some nonzero amount of skill
[14:14:58 CET] <furq> have you tried playing it until someone takes all the drivers in front of you out with randomised weapons that target them exactly
[14:15:06 CET] <thebombzen> no
[14:15:10 CET] <thebombzen> because I don't own it
[14:15:12 CET] <thebombzen> and usually I lose the race
[14:15:13 CET] <furq> that seems like the winning strategy
[14:15:22 CET] <thebombzen> and then the next person in line says "you lose, you're out"
[14:15:24 CET] <thebombzen> and I don't get to play
[14:15:37 CET] <thebombzen> there's a reason it's a bad party game
[14:15:44 CET] <furq> is it because it's a bad game
[14:15:53 CET] <thebombzen> but I was under the impression that the games that drag on your cpu the most have physics sims
[14:16:01 CET] <thebombzen> like FPS games
[14:16:03 CET] <furq> nice segue
[14:16:09 CET] <thebombzen> segue?
[14:16:10 CET] <furq> and probably
[14:16:21 CET] <furq> http://chambers.co.uk/search/?query=segue&title=21st
[14:16:41 CET] <thebombzen> I'd been trying to say that for a while
[14:16:42 CET] <thebombzen> lol
[14:17:14 CET] <thebombzen> I also think it's amusing that when you said "League of Dotawatch" you referenced three popular games all of which are mobastyle
[14:17:24 CET] <furq> i haven't played a new fps in years
[14:17:30 CET] <furq> i think the newest one i played was battlefield 3
[14:17:34 CET] <furq> and only because someone bought it for me
[14:17:43 CET] <thebombzen> lol at least it wasn't call of duty
[14:17:52 CET] <furq> i have never played a call of duty game
[14:17:55 CET] <thebombzen> Call of duty is a pretty terrible game
[14:18:02 CET] <furq> not even cod4 which apparently has quake 3 physics
[14:18:18 CET] <thebombzen> they're all bad
[14:18:23 CET] <thebombzen> cod4 just was less bad than the others
[14:18:28 CET] <thebombzen> the maps were awful though
[14:18:45 CET] <furq> bf3 would have been sort of ok if it wasn't full of hackers
[14:18:49 CET] <thebombzen> lol
[14:19:00 CET] <thebombzen> the biggest problem with games like this is just the random death
[14:19:09 CET] <thebombzen> There's a million things that oneshot you
[14:19:11 CET] <furq> i had some fun with it when i wasn't being sniped from three miles away while inside a tank by a dude facing the other way in a basement in enemy spawn
[14:19:12 CET] <thebombzen> for no reason
[14:19:18 CET] <thebombzen> and you have basically no hitpoints
[14:19:19 CET] <furq> because obviously client-side netcode is a great idea
[14:19:23 CET] <thebombzen> in any of these games
[14:19:36 CET] <thebombzen> lol
[14:19:46 CET] <thebombzen> yea you have basically no hitpoints and there's a lot of random instakills
[14:20:01 CET] <furq> well yeah that's not great
[14:20:08 CET] <thebombzen> and what isn't an instakill is frequently almost instant
[14:20:13 CET] <furq> but it becomes slightly less great when you can just tell the server you killed someone and it believes you
[14:20:22 CET] <thebombzen> lol unsafe network code
[14:20:34 CET] <furq> apparently it was fully client-side
[14:20:40 CET] <thebombzen> I always love how games conistently start out with unsafe network code
[14:20:50 CET] <furq> i'm pretty sure this finished with unsafe netcode as well
[14:20:50 CET] <thebombzen> and then people take it apart in about three minutes
[14:20:57 CET] <thebombzen> and they have to constantly release patches
[14:20:59 CET] <thebombzen> fixing this stuff
[14:21:16 CET] <furq> the funniest thing was that instead of banning hackers, they would just reset their level to 0
[14:21:22 CET] <furq> because obviously people don't ever hack to level up faster
[14:21:22 CET] <thebombzen> oh
[14:21:26 CET] <thebombzen> lol
[14:21:30 CET] <furq> nice work EA
[14:21:43 CET] <thebombzen> yea if you reset their level to 0 they're just gonna give themselves a whole bunch of xp
[14:21:49 CET] <thebombzen> and endup exactly where they started
[14:22:02 CET] <furq> i wouldn't mind if you could just hack extra XP directly
[14:22:14 CET] <furq> but you had to do that by hacking in games and fucking it up for everyone else
[14:22:35 CET] <furq> it only became tolerable if you could get into servers with community banlists
[14:22:52 CET] <furq> the community had this big infrastructure set up to do EA's job for them
[14:23:12 CET] <furq> or not EA's job, because that is "make as much money as possible right now"
[14:23:20 CET] <furq> but what one would hope EA would consider their job
[14:29:24 CET] <__jack__> 14:18:18 < thebombzen> they're all bad > you does not like them, does not mean they are bad
[14:29:57 CET] <__jack__> I actually enjoyed modern warfare
[14:46:10 CET] <thebombzen> __jack__: enjoying something does not mean it's good or bad
[14:46:16 CET] <thebombzen> lots of people enjoy lots of bad things
[14:46:32 CET] <thebombzen> lots of people enjoy things despite knowing they're bad
[15:24:49 CET] <Tom_B> I have the same issue as described here:  http://www.ffmpeg-archive.org/Exactly-one-WebVTT-stream-is-needed-td4673148.html I'm trying to covert a DVB stream into an HLS stream including the subtitles. As it generates .ts files. I have set -scodec copy and ffmpeg output shows " Stream #0:3 -> #0:2 (dvb_subtitle (dvbsub) -> dvb_subtitle (dvbsub))"  but I get the error "Exactly one WebVTT stream is needed"
[15:31:54 CET] <JEEB> Tom_B: dvb subtitles are not a thing in HLS
[15:32:12 CET] <Tom_B> is there any way to convert them into something that HLS can use?
[15:32:25 CET] <JEEB> dvb subtitles are image-based so no
[15:32:33 CET] <JEEB> dvb teletext is text-based
[15:32:44 CET] <Tom_B> can the subtitles be read and embedded into the frame?
[15:32:52 CET] <Tom_B> as pixels
[15:33:02 CET] <JEEB> yes
[15:33:24 CET] <JEEB> overlay filter is required for that and thus the subtitles cannot be disabled as they will be hardcoded into the video
[15:34:23 CET] <Tom_B> yeah, that makes sense. Is it possible to send a message to a running ffmpeg process to change its settings? to turn on/off the subtitles being hardcoded into the video?
[15:35:17 CET] <Tom_B> ah, it does look like hls supports webvtt: http://hlsbook.net/how-to-add-subtitles-to-a-live-hls-stream/ can ffmpeg be used to generate m3u8 files in this format?
[15:35:38 CET] <thebombzen> Tom_B: also consider using ocr, depending on how legible the subs are
[15:37:09 CET] <JEEB> Tom_B: it doesn't do dynamic track selection so if the subtitle type or PID changes that's not a thing you can handle in ffmpeg.c
[15:37:31 CET] <JEEB> it actively ignores new AVStreams after the initial probe and track selection :P
[15:37:55 CET] <JEEB> and yes, there's some control for some options but I recommend just doing the extra few meters and creating your own API-using app
[15:38:21 CET] <JEEB> that way you can handle all the extra cases correctly and don't have to have the metric ton of awful stuff that's in ffmpeg.c that's unrelated to your use case
[15:40:13 CET] <Tom_B> so the best way is to have ffmpeg extract the subs, and then load the subs manually into the video player?
[15:55:15 CET] <thebombzen> is there a way to transfer frame metadata from one video stream to another?
[16:16:14 CET] <thebombzen> hmmm, with avfilter I'm getting unterminated %{} errors
[16:16:20 CET] <thebombzen> the example out of the docs verbatim doesn't work
[16:18:45 CET] <thebombzen> if I use: -vf drawtext='fontfile=FreeSans.ttf:text=%{localtime\:%a %b %d %Y}' it will complain about an unterminated %{} near {localtime
[16:19:05 CET] <thebombzen> if I drop the fontfile= it'll whine about a stray %
[16:19:20 CET] <furq> i always needed to use \\:
[16:20:52 CET] <faLUCE> Hello: AV_CODEC_ID_H264  shows:  YUV422P, YUVJ422é, YUV444P, YUVJ444P, NV12, NV16, NV21 as supported pixel formats, but I can use YUV420P as well. Why? Is this last one automatically converted into one of the listed formats?
[16:21:14 CET] <thebombzen> http://sprunge.us/fhDh
[16:21:28 CET] <thebombzen> the second \ does work
[16:21:35 CET] <thebombzen> but that sounds like an error in the documentation
[16:26:16 CET] <faLUCE> I can read that AV_PIX_FMT_NV12 =  planar YUV 4:2:0  12bpp, 1 plane for Y and 1 plane for the UV components, which are interleaved (first byte U and the following byte V)  <----- is this the answer for my question?
[16:39:19 CET] <rhoki2> Hi, I'm trying to record a h264 encoded RTSP stream in environtment where there is pretty high risk of power loss. I've figured out I need to store it in something like fragmented mp4, or matroska. The problem is that muxing into those containers consumes A LOT of CPU time. Why does it happen? Is there any alternative solution I can use?
[16:40:50 CET] <furq> are you reencoding
[16:41:20 CET] <rhoki2> nope, I'm just trying to dump the stream as it is
[16:41:30 CET] <furq> what's the command
[16:41:39 CET] <rhoki2> when I'm using non fragmented mp4, all is fine
[16:43:29 CET] <rhoki2> ffmpeg i (url) -vcodec:copy -movflags frag_keyframe+empty_moov out.mp4
[16:43:48 CET] <rhoki2> -i, sorry
[16:44:02 CET] <furq> that should be -c copy instead of -vcodec copy
[16:44:05 CET] <furq> otherwise it'll reencode the audio
[16:44:18 CET] <furq> i don't see any other part of that which will hit the cpu
[16:44:22 CET] <rhoki2> there is no other stream than video
[16:44:33 CET] <furq> fun
[16:44:40 CET] <furq> i'd probably use mpegts fwiw
[16:44:47 CET] <furq> muxing that to mkv definitely shouldn't hit the cpu though
[16:49:14 CET] <rhoki2> by mpegts you mean hls muxer and mpegts segments, right?
[17:14:14 CET] <rhoki2> I tried -codec copy -f mpets and it seems OK
[17:14:33 CET] <rhoki2> I must have done something wrong, thank you for your help
[17:36:52 CET] <jonascj_> Hi all. Can I disable the "size=N/A time=07:02:27.15 bitrate=N/A speed= 386x" output which is printed every now and then? It interfers with capturing the output of "-af silencedetect"...
[17:46:42 CET] <furq> jonascj_: -nostats or -v error
[17:51:27 CET] <jonascj_> furq: thanks, I did not find anything looking for "progress" in the docs
[17:52:27 CET] <nyuszika7h> rhoki2: you can just mux the entire thing into a .ts container too
[19:06:39 CET] <faLUCE> is there a function for calculating the size of the planes of an AVFrame  (frame->data[0], frame->data[1], frame->data[2]) ? At the moment, I manually calculate them considering the frame's format. For YUV420P the values are:   frame->linesize[0]*heigth,   frame->linesize[1]*heigth/2,  frame->linesize[2]*heigth/2
[19:31:55 CET] <DHE> faLUCE: if you're allocating, just use av_frame_get_buffer and let ffmpeg do it for you
[19:32:34 CET] <DHE> are you actually processing the frame data yourself?
[19:32:55 CET] <faLUCE> DHE: I know that, but I have to wrap the data into my own struct
[19:33:08 CET] <faLUCE> then I need these sizes....
[19:33:59 CET] <faLUCE> DHE: I don't understand if libav lacks this function (planes' size) or is there some function in avutil for calculating that
[19:41:38 CET] <faLUCE> DHE: just found:  AVBufferRef * 	av_frame_get_plane_buffer (AVFrame *frame, int plane)   let's try it
[19:48:09 CET] <faLUCE> nothing done, it's not useful for what I want
[19:52:12 CET] <faLUCE> found another one:  av_image_get_linesize, let's try it
[19:53:05 CET] <feliwir> In page 14 for VP6_DecodeSymbol there isn't an output: https://multimedia.cx/mirror/vp6_format.pdf
[20:03:32 CET] <faLUCE> it works ;-)
[20:15:05 CET] <faLUCE> is it possible to sws_scale() from a JPEG frame to a YUVJ444P frame without decoding?
[20:18:07 CET] <BtbN> uhm, jpeg is a compressed image
[20:18:14 CET] <BtbN> you need to decompress/decode it first to get YUV data
[20:19:02 CET] <faLUCE> BtbN: I see
[20:29:55 CET] <thebombzen> faLUCE: turning a jpeg image into a yuvj44p frame is literally decoding
[20:30:02 CET] <thebombzen> that's like
[20:30:06 CET] <thebombzen> literally what it means to decode jpeg
[20:32:22 CET] <faLUCE> thebombzen: I see. Given that x264 encoder accepts YUVJ444P I thought it could accept encoded JPEG frames as well
[20:33:06 CET] <thebombzen> why would you think that
[20:33:19 CET] <thebombzen> x264 doesn't haven't a built-in mjpeg decoder
[20:33:25 CET] <thebombzen> because it's not FFmpeg
[20:33:27 CET] <faLUCE> thebombzen: because I saw the J letter in the pix-fmt ;-)
[20:33:41 CET] <faLUCE> thebombzen: anyway, I understand
[20:33:52 CET] <thebombzen> it's got a J because it's jpeg's old deprecated yuv
[20:33:59 CET] <thebombzen> to distinguish it from modern yuv444p
[20:34:39 CET] <faLUCE> yes. I had to view the code in order to see the "deprecated" word
[20:34:51 CET] <faLUCE> it compiles without warning
[20:40:43 CET] <furq> j denotes full-range
[20:46:06 CET] <obamoose> hello
[20:47:37 CET] <obamoose> can someone help me figure out why
[20:47:48 CET] <furq> yes
[20:47:54 CET] <obamoose> thanks
[20:47:56 CET] <furq> it's because
[20:48:02 CET] <obamoose> solved it
[20:48:10 CET] <furq> what a nice young man
[20:48:22 CET] <obamoose> welp another issue came up
[20:48:28 CET] <furq> oh no
[20:48:36 CET] <obamoose> Can someone help me figure out why it's restarting my stream after every file
[20:48:37 CET] <rob0> this one is "because I said so"
[20:48:38 CET] <obamoose> http://pastebin.com/yFqhG3G8
[20:48:43 CET] <obamoose> noo ;_;
[20:48:45 CET] <rob0> or maybe not
[20:48:50 CET] <furq> because that's how ffmpeg works
[20:49:04 CET] <obamoose> huh
[20:49:06 CET] <obamoose> for real?
[20:49:15 CET] <obamoose> how do I turn it into a single stream
[20:49:20 CET] <furq> you concat the inputs
[20:49:35 CET] <obamoose> I what now?
[20:49:48 CET] <furq> https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/Concatenate#demuxer
[20:50:07 CET] <furq> or use the concat filter, which is generally better, but is less amenable to running on the output of find|xargs
[20:51:01 CET] <obamoose> I don't know how this works ;_;
[20:51:05 CET] <obamoose> pls spoonfeed me
[20:51:25 CET] <thebombzen> or use cat
[20:51:28 CET] <thebombzen> and mpegts
[20:51:29 CET] <thebombzen> lol
[20:51:42 CET] <obamoose> I don't know any of those mean
[20:51:47 CET] <obamoose> I got spoonfed my current config
[20:51:49 CET] <obamoose> ;_;
[20:51:51 CET] <furq> http://vpaste.net/qQ6IO
[20:51:53 CET] <obamoose> i'm retarded
[20:52:47 CET] <thebombzen> obamoose: it sounds like you have several files you're trying to just loop through a stream
[20:53:00 CET] <thebombzen> the easiest way to do that is to remux them all to mpegts and concatenate them
[20:53:13 CET] <thebombzen> for each of the files, do ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -c copy output.ts
[20:53:14 CET] <furq> i don't think that's the easiest way
[20:53:42 CET] <thebombzen> it is because they also want to loop the files
[20:54:02 CET] <thebombzen> if you have a bunch of video.ts files, then you can just concatenate them together with "cat" and that will work
[20:54:12 CET] <thebombzen> so you have the entire stream in one file, stream.ts
[20:54:17 CET] <thebombzen> then to loop the stream you can do:
[20:54:22 CET] <obamoose> http://pastebin.com/a0cTmPqE
[20:54:23 CET] <obamoose> like this?
[20:54:29 CET] <obamoose> I'm trying to loop a directory of files
[20:54:30 CET] <furq> no
[20:54:33 CET] <furq> not in any way like that
[20:54:33 CET] <thebombzen> no
[20:54:33 CET] <obamoose> all the same extension
[20:54:50 CET] <thebombzen> obamoose: this will take a bit of prep
[20:54:59 CET] <thebombzen> the easiest way to do it is to actually concatenate all the video files into one
[20:55:24 CET] <obamoose> before or after?
[20:55:30 CET] <thebombzen> well I'm not done answering
[20:55:31 CET] <obamoose> i'm adding new files every day though
[20:55:45 CET] <thebombzen> still easier to convert them all to ts
[20:55:48 CET] <furq> well your existing command won't add new files
[20:55:55 CET] <furq> actually nvm it's in a while loop
[20:55:59 CET] <thebombzen> obamoose: you should put all of the files you want into a directory
[20:56:05 CET] <obamoose> they're in home/me/cgn
[20:56:05 CET] <thebombzen> and make sure they're mpegts formatted
[20:56:09 CET] <furq> there's no way of doing this where new files will get added to the rotation without breaking the stream
[20:56:11 CET] <obamoose> they're all mp4's
[20:56:15 CET] <obamoose> ;_;
[20:56:16 CET] <thebombzen> well that's a problem
[20:56:26 CET] <furq> unless you want to write your own application using ffmpeg's libs
[20:56:29 CET] <furq> and i suspect you don't
[20:56:30 CET] <thebombzen> furq: it's possible, and i'm about to explain how
[20:56:38 CET] <furq> is it going to be something fucking awful
[20:56:43 CET] <thebombzen> obamoose: for each of the files, you need to do ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -c copy output.ts
[20:56:45 CET] <thebombzen> or whatever
[20:56:50 CET] <obamoose> I just want to create a tv channel in ubuntu
[20:56:50 CET] <thebombzen> so they're all ts
[20:56:52 CET] <thebombzen> I KNOW
[20:56:53 CET] <obamoose> why is it so hard ;_;?
[20:57:00 CET] <thebombzen> STOP WHINING ABOUT HOW HARD IT IS AND ACTUALLY LISTEN FOR ONCE
[20:57:16 CET] <furq> are you going to suggest appending to the .ts while the stream is still running
[20:57:23 CET] <thebombzen> furq: I'm not done
[20:57:25 CET] <thebombzen> lemme talk
[20:57:37 CET] <thebombzen> obamoose: you want to remux each of the videos in the directory to .ts
[20:57:45 CET] <obamoose> yes
[20:57:49 CET] <thebombzen> for each of them, do ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -c copy output.ts
[20:57:50 CET] <thebombzen> then
[20:58:01 CET] <obamoose> yes
[20:58:08 CET] <thebombzen> make sure they're named in order you want them to play
[20:58:16 CET] <thebombzen> then you can do this:
[20:59:07 CET] <thebombzen> while true; do cat *.ts; done | ffmpeg -y -re -f mpegts -i - <rest of your command line>
[20:59:39 CET] <thebombzen> if you drop a new .ts file into the directory it'll be added to the rotation once the old ones are done
[20:59:45 CET] <thebombzen> and it restarts
[21:00:23 CET] <rob0> I don't get why the while loop, why not just cat *.ts | ffmpeg ... ?
[21:00:32 CET] <furq> because that won't loop
[21:00:39 CET] <rob0> oh
[21:00:50 CET] <furq> and you can't use -stream_loop because that won't add newly added files
[21:00:51 CET] <thebombzen> read the question lmao
[21:00:55 CET] <rob0> "and it restarts"
[21:01:02 CET] <furq> although
[21:01:16 CET] <furq> that doesn't satisfy the requirement of not dropping the stream
[21:01:24 CET] <thebombzen> why not?
[21:01:33 CET] <furq> because it'll drop out at the end of every rotation
[21:01:36 CET] <thebombzen> no it won't
[21:01:42 CET] <furq> of course it will
[21:01:44 CET] <thebombzen> no it won't
[21:01:50 CET] <furq> every time you restart ffmpeg, the stream will drop
[21:01:55 CET] <thebombzen> this never restarts ffmpeg
[21:01:59 CET] <thebombzen> just leave that running forever
[21:02:05 CET] <obamoose> mom, dad stop fighting ;_;
[21:02:11 CET] <furq> nvm i can't read
[21:02:14 CET] <thebombzen> lol
[21:02:24 CET] <thebombzen> do this basically: while true; do cat *.ts; done | ffmpeg -y -re -f mpegts -i - <rest of your command line>
[21:02:40 CET] <thebombzen> this will loop all the .ts files in your directory
[21:03:24 CET] <thebombzen> leave that running forever
[21:03:38 CET] <thebombzen> note that you can save cpu time by doing your video encoding beforehand
[21:03:39 CET] <thebombzen> but that should do it
[21:03:48 CET] <thebombzen> now, what are you getting the files from?
[21:04:02 CET] <thebombzen> obamoose: where are the video files originating
[21:04:33 CET] <obamoose> youtube
[21:04:34 CET] <furq> if he has bitrate constraints then it probably doesn't matter
[21:04:35 CET] <obamoose> -> mp4
[21:04:39 CET] <furq> or maybe it does
[21:04:47 CET] <thebombzen> furq: but he can bitrate constrain them beforehand
[21:04:51 CET] <furq> if they're all from youtube and they're all the same resolution then you don't need to reencode at all
[21:04:51 CET] <thebombzen> and use -preset slow or something
[21:05:10 CET] <thebombzen> yea
[21:05:15 CET] <thebombzen> if they're all from youtube and the same resolution
[21:05:27 CET] <thebombzen> you can actually use -c copy instead of the previous stuff
[21:07:28 CET] <obamoose> I'm confused
[21:08:09 CET] <obamoose> http://vpaste.net/DbY6e
[21:08:12 CET] <obamoose> this?
[21:08:23 CET] <thebombzen> so <rest of your command line>
[21:08:24 CET] <thebombzen> means the rest
[21:08:27 CET] <thebombzen> not the entire thing
[21:08:29 CET] <furq> forget the -f concat stuff
[21:08:36 CET] <furq> and in fact most of that
[21:08:42 CET] <thebombzen> also cat isn't spelled with a k
[21:08:45 CET] <furq> you might as well just write the entire command for him
[21:08:49 CET] <furq> it'll save everyone a lot of time
[21:09:25 CET] <thebombzen> while true; do cat *.ts; done | ffmpeg -re -f mpegts -i - -c copy -f flv rtmp://live.twitch.tv/app/streamkey
[21:09:28 CET] <thebombzen> try that
[21:09:47 CET] <thebombzen> make sure you actually have a .ts video file there, otherwise it'll just fail
[21:10:00 CET] <thebombzen> to get one of those, use ffmpeg -i video.mp4 -c copy video.ts
[21:10:24 CET] <obamoose> ;_;
[21:10:29 CET] <thebombzen> what
[21:10:34 CET] <thebombzen> what are you crying about now
[21:10:35 CET] <obamoose> oh
[21:10:40 CET] <thebombzen> your inability to copy and paste
[21:10:46 CET] <obamoose> wait I need to find an mp4 to ts converter
[21:10:51 CET] <thebombzen> how about ffmpeg
[21:10:55 CET] <thebombzen> I literally fucking told you how to do it
[21:10:58 CET] <thebombzen> about thirty seconds ago
[21:11:10 CET] <obamoose> I wasn't kidding when I said retarded
[21:11:23 CET] <thebombzen> [16:09:47] <thebombzen> make sure you actually have a .ts video file there, otherwise it'll just fail
[21:11:23 CET] <thebombzen> [16:10:00] <thebombzen> to get one of those, use ffmpeg -i video.mp4 -c copy video.ts
[21:11:27 CET] <thebombzen> like
[21:11:30 CET] <thebombzen> come on
[21:11:58 CET] <obamoose> but but
[21:12:01 CET] <obamoose> is that a test file?
[21:12:10 CET] <thebombzen> lol it's whatever you want it to be
[21:12:13 CET] <obamoose> or does it take all my files inside my folder
[21:12:26 CET] <obamoose> and convert them?
[21:12:28 CET] <thebombzen> okay, video.mp4 means the actual filename
[21:12:43 CET] <thebombzen> if it's not called video.mp4, then instead use whatever the filename is
[21:12:48 CET] <obamoose> yessir
[21:16:20 CET] <obamoose> ffmpeg -i home/obamoose/cgn/1.mp4 -c copy 1.ts won't find it
[21:16:28 CET] <obamoose> home/obamoose/cgn/1.mp4: No such file or directory
[21:17:33 CET] <thebombzen> well
[21:17:52 CET] <thebombzen> that's because you need a / in front
[21:17:59 CET] <thebombzen> home/obamoose/cgn/1.mp4 is a relative path
[21:18:08 CET] <thebombzen> from the CWD (current working directory)
[21:18:38 CET] <thebombzen> if it starts with a / then it's an absolute path and it means "start from the root of the filesystem" not "start from the current working directory"
[21:18:43 CET] <obamoose> oh
[21:18:48 CET] <obamoose> thank you
[21:18:53 CET] <thebombzen> so when you copy and paste
[21:18:56 CET] <thebombzen> things like this matter
[21:19:02 CET] <obamoose> indeed
[21:19:16 CET] <obamoose> you know how I can confirm I'm retarded?
[21:19:35 CET] <obamoose> I pasted this: /home/obamoose/cgn/1.mp4: No such file or directory
[21:20:23 CET] <thebombzen> well
[21:20:25 CET] <furq> is it the fact that you picked an irc client that interprets that as a command
[21:20:29 CET] <furq> that's pretty dumb
[21:20:45 CET] <furq> /there's/nothing/wrong/with/this
[21:20:55 CET] <thebombzen> well kvirc does too but at least it whines at you that command not found
[21:21:08 CET] <thebombzen> either way
[21:21:27 CET] <thebombzen> obamoose: it's telling you that there's no such file or directory there
[21:21:32 CET] <thebombzen> because there's no such file or directory
[21:21:40 CET] <thebombzen> error messages are not always helpful but they usually are
[21:21:43 CET] <thebombzen> you should probably read them
[21:21:53 CET] <obamoose> Yessir
[21:21:58 CET] <obamoose> it was fixed by adding a /
[21:22:04 CET] <obamoose> but now I can't seem to find the file
[21:22:29 CET] <thebombzen> well the file should be in /home/obamoose/cgn
[21:22:38 CET] <obamoose> it's not ;_;
[21:22:40 CET] <thebombzen> well then
[21:22:45 CET] <thebombzen> it can't find a file that isnt' there
[21:22:47 CET] <thebombzen> because it isn't there
[21:23:01 CET] <thebombzen> if you're trying to remux a .mp4 into a .ts file
[21:23:05 CET] <obamoose> File '1.ts' already exists. Overwrite ? [y/N]
[21:23:08 CET] <thebombzen> perhaps try doing that on an actual file
[21:23:27 CET] <thebombzen> well it sounds like you already ran the command once
[21:23:30 CET] <thebombzen> and it already succeeded
[21:23:35 CET] <thebombzen> so why are you trying again
[21:23:53 CET] <obamoose> cause I can't find it in the cgn folder
[21:24:30 CET] <thebombzen> perhaps you can't find it because it's not there
[21:24:34 CET] <thebombzen> have you considered this possibility
[21:24:47 CET] <obamoose> oh damn
[21:24:48 CET] <obamoose> I'm slow
[21:24:51 CET] <thebombzen> yes
[21:24:53 CET] <obamoose> it's in the main folder
[21:25:53 CET] <RossW> for next time:     find / -name "1.mp4"
[21:26:04 CET] <thebombzen> lolno
[21:26:05 CET] <thebombzen> don't do that
[21:26:22 CET] <thebombzen> that would take too long
[21:26:52 CET] <RossW> it's quicker than wasting an hour looking everywhere it isn't :)
[21:27:10 CET] <thebombzen> but slower than find /home/obamoose -name 1.mp4
[21:27:25 CET] <furq> it's probably best to assume he didn't write it somewhere that he doesn't have write permissions
[21:27:33 CET] <furq> which is probably everywhere outside of ~
[21:27:41 CET] <RossW> sure - if you're certain it's in the /home/obamoose path...
[21:27:43 CET] <furq> at least for his own safety i hope it is
[21:28:01 CET] <thebombzen> if it's not in ~/ then he's got bigger problems
[21:28:03 CET] <furq> if he had write permissions in /usr i doubt he'd be here talking to us
[21:33:51 CET] <obamoose> I converted them all to ts \o/
[21:39:42 CET] <obamoose> I think
[21:39:43 CET] <obamoose> I did it
[21:40:33 CET] <obamoose> wait nvm

[21:41:22 CET] <obamoose> wait I have ffmpeg twice
[21:42:07 CET] <thebombzen> have you considered
[21:42:14 CET] <thebombzen> copy and pasting the command I gave you
[21:42:24 CET] <thebombzen> rather than coming up with one that doesn't work yet again
[21:43:15 CET] <obamoose> I thought [rest of your command line]
[21:43:21 CET] <obamoose> meant the whole command line
[21:47:47 CET] <thebombzen> no that's not what "rest of" means

[21:52:45 CET] <obamoose> is what I have
[21:53:11 CET] <obamoose> ffmpeg: No such file or directory
[21:53:16 CET] <nightlingo> hello!
[21:53:46 CET] <obamoose> hello
[21:53:46 CET] <nightlingo> how may I encode an mp4 video into having a fixed sample_size ?
[21:55:04 CET] <nightlingo> either that, or , any ideas where can I find an example .mp4 file that has a fixed sample size? I really need it in order to analyze its format
[22:01:28 CET] <thebombzen> obamoose: again
[22:01:32 CET] <thebombzen> copy and paste what I wrote
[22:01:37 CET] <thebombzen> which I will leave here for you, again
[22:01:44 CET] <obamoose> i'm sorry ;_;

[22:02:44 CET] <petecouture> Can ffmpeg encode a file input from a url e.g. http://example.com/movie.mp4
[22:03:03 CET] <thebombzen> yes
[22:04:33 CET] <petecouture> Can the output be saved to a S3 bucket?
[22:04:53 CET] <thebombzen> well I assume you'd have to do that yourself
[22:05:40 CET] <petecouture> gotcha
[22:06:04 CET] <petecouture> @thebombzen thank you for your help
[22:09:07 CET] <thebombzen> in general putting something with http is harder than taking it
[22:12:48 CET] <asda> is it possible for ffmpeg to print out the actual versions of particular encoders ffmpeg was built against, for example libopus 1.1.3?
[22:13:07 CET] <thebombzen> if it was dynamically linked? easily
[22:13:37 CET] <asda> thebombzen: statically linked
[22:14:26 CET] <thebombzen> I don't know, sorry
[22:15:18 CET] <asda> thanks anyway
[22:15:21 CET] <asda> :)

[22:27:21 CET] <hky> Hi! When creating a buffersink filter context in AVFilterContext using avfilter_graph_create_filter, how can I specify the number of input pads?
[22:28:47 CET] <obamoose>  Malformed AAC bitstream detected: use the audio bitstream filter 'aac_adtstoasc' to fix it ('-bsf:a aac_adtstoasc' option with ffmpeg) av_interleaved_write_frame(): Invalid data found when processing input
[22:28:52 CET] <obamoose> thebombzen: ;_;
[22:29:36 CET] <furq> did you try doing the exact thing it explicitly tells you to do
[22:29:57 CET] <obamoose> y-yes?
[22:30:10 CET] <obamoose> all I did was replace streamkey with the actual key]
[22:33:21 CET] <thebombzen> you should do the thing it tells you to do
[22:34:13 CET] <obamoose> Option bsf:a (A comma-separated list of bitstream filters) cannot be applied to input url - -- you are trying to apply an input option to an output file or vice versa. Move this option before the file it belongs to. Error parsing options for input file -. Error opening input files: Invalid argument
[22:34:56 CET] <furq> again, you should do the thing it tells you to do
[22:43:09 CET] <obamoose> i placed it before |
[22:43:10 CET] <obamoose> ;_;
[22:43:23 CET] <thebombzen> well how about not doing that
[22:43:32 CET] <obamoose> but isn't that input?
[22:44:52 CET] <thebombzen> no
[22:44:58 CET] <thebombzen> it's not even part of the ffmpeg command
[22:47:27 CET] <obamoose> but where do I place it ;_;?
[22:48:11 CET] <thebombzen> where it tells you to
[22:49:07 CET] <obamoose> Move this option before the file it belongs to
[22:49:51 CET] <obamoose>  while true; do cat -bsf:a aac_adtstoasc /home/obamoose/cgn/*.ts; done | ffmpeg -re -f mpegts -i - -c copy -f flv rtmp://live.twitch.tv/app/streamkey
[22:50:15 CET] <thebombzen> even I'm starting to lose my patience right now
[22:50:20 CET] <thebombzen> have you ever used a command line before
[22:50:28 CET] <obamoose> y-yes
[22:50:39 CET] <thebombzen> are you sure
[22:51:39 CET] <obamoose> yes?
[22:52:31 CET] <thebombzen> do you know what a pipe is
[22:52:35 CET] <thebombzen> in a command line
[22:52:38 CET] <thebombzen> you know, the | thingy
[22:52:52 CET] <obamoose> yessir
[22:54:06 CET] <thebombzen> do you know what "cat" does
[22:54:58 CET] <thebombzen> and obamoose have you considered using OBS instead
[22:55:01 CET] <thebombzen> https://obsproject.com/
[22:55:30 CET] <obamoose> it's a headless ubuntu server somewhere in a datacenter in france
[22:55:33 CET] <obamoose> can I run obs?
[22:56:23 CET] <thebombzen> why do you have access to a headless datacenter in france
[22:56:27 CET] <thebombzen> if you have no idea how to use a command line
[22:56:48 CET] <thebombzen> who gave you access to that thing and how much do they hate their job
[22:56:50 CET] <obamoose> for a 24/7 stream
[22:56:58 CET] <obamoose> m-me myself and I
[22:57:26 CET] <thebombzen> why do you want to have a 24/7 twitch stream of videos you downloaded off youtube
[22:57:43 CET] <thebombzen> so much that you're willing to pay money for a server you don't know how to administer
[22:58:18 CET] <obamoose> no bully ;_;
[22:58:58 CET] <thebombzen> this is a serious question
[22:59:09 CET] <thebombzen> why do you want to have a 24/7 twitch stream of videos you downloaded off youtube
[22:59:20 CET] <obamoose> I'm creating an esports channel
[22:59:21 CET] <BtbN> Just set up a playlist on Twitch, and let it plays those videos for you...?
[22:59:33 CET] <obamoose> playlist is only for a select few streamers
[22:59:44 CET] <BtbN> hm
[22:59:49 CET] <thebombzen> what about a YouTube gaming playlist
[22:59:52 CET] <thebombzen> that's a thing
[23:00:03 CET] <obamoose> starting out on twitch
[23:00:14 CET] <BtbN> I hope it's at least your own content you are broadcasting there?
[23:00:14 CET] <thebombzen> by streaming other people's content?
[23:01:35 CET] <obamoose> It's others content
[23:01:39 CET] <obamoose> but with explicit permission
[23:07:16 CET] <furq> i hope you at least bought the cheapest ovh server
[23:14:38 CET] <obamoose> furq: yes, kimsufi
[23:14:44 CET] <obamoose> furq: ;_;
