Encoding video using ffmpeg
One-pass encoding video MPEG4,h264,h263; audio AAC
Encoding mpeg4 video example:
ffmpeg -i /home/video/U0003765.avi -vcodec mpeg4 -r 12 -s qcif -b 64 -acodec aac -ac 1 -ar 16000 -ab 16 /home/enc/test01.mp4
Where
-vcodec h263- video codec h263-r 12- 12 frame per seconds-s qcif- qcif=176x144 pixels-b 64- 64kbit/s video stream
-acodec aac- audio codec is AAC-ac 1- 1 audio channel (mono)-ar 16000- audio sampling frequency - 16kHz-ab 16- 16kBit/s audio stream
For lower bitrates i used 24kHz/32kBit (-ar 24000 -ab 32) or 16kHz/16kBit (-ar 16000 -ab 16).
Encoding h264 video example:
ffmpeg -i /home/video/U0003765.avi -vcodec h264 -r 12 -s qcif -b 64 -acodec aac -ac 1 -ar 16000 -ab 16 /home/enc/test02.mp4
Encoding h263 video example (QT player required, IMHO, .3pg extension for files with h263 codec):
ffmpeg -i /home/video/U0003765.avi -vcodec h263 -r 12 -s qcif -b 64 -acodec aac -ac 1 -ar 16000 -ab 16 /home/enc/test04.mp4
Two-pass encoding video h263,MPEG4,h264; audio AAC
Using two pass encoding could be VERY usefull to create more smother video. If you have pre-recorded material - use two pass encoding.
MPEG4,AAC (h264 has the same manner):
#pass 1 ffmpeg -i /home/video/U0003773.avi -pass 1 -passlogfile logfile -vcodec mpeg4 -r 12 -s qcif -b 64 -an /home/enc/test04.mp4 #delete temp file rm -f /home/enc/test04.mp4 #pass 2 ffmpeg -i /home/video/U0003773.avi -pass 2 -passlogfile logfile -vcodec mpeg4 -r 12 -s qcif -b 64 -acodec aac -ac 1 -ar 24000 -ab 32 /home/enc/test06.3gp
H263,AAC:
#pass 1 ffmpeg -i /home/video/U0003773.avi -pass 1 -passlogfile logfile -vcodec h263 -r 12 -s qcif -b 64 -an /home/enc/test04.mp4 #delete temp file rm -f /home/enc/test06.3gp #pass 2 ffmpeg -i /home/video/U0003773.avi -pass 2 -passlogfile logfile -vcodec h263 -r 12 -s qcif -b 64 -acodec aac -ac 1 -ar 24000 -ab 32 /home/enc/test06.3gp
Encoding H263+amr_nb (amr narrow band)
Befor start to encode check if your ffmpeg version support AMR codec:
[root@dev-3 enc]# ffmpeg -formats | grep amr FFmpeg version SVN-r5504, Copyright (c) 2000-2004 Fabrice Bellard configuration: --prefix=/usr/local/enctools --enable-mp3lame --enable-libogg --enable-vorbis --enable-theora --enable-faad --enable-faadbin --enable-faac --enable-xvid --enable-x264 --enable-a52 --enable-a52bin --enable-amr_nb --enable-amr_wb --enable-dc1394 --enable-gpl --enable-pp --enable-shared --extra-cflags=-I/usr/local/enctools/include --extra-ldflags=-L/usr/local/enctools/lib libavutil version: 49.0.0 libavcodec version: 51.9.0 libavformat version: 50.4.0 built on Jun 29 2006 13:27:24, gcc: 4.1.1 20060525 (Red Hat 4.1.1-1) DE amr 3gpp amr file format DEA amr_nb DEA amr_wb
Used amr encoder supports sampling freq is 8kHz only ( -ar 8000 ) and eight bitrate ranges:
min,Hz max,Hz Bitrate 0 4999 MR475 5000 5899 MR515 5900 6699 MR59 6700 7000 MR67 7001 7949 MR74 7950 9999 MR795 10000 11999 MR102 12000 64000 MR122
encoding h263, arm_nb (4.75kBit):
ffmpeg -i /home/video/U0003765.avi -vcodec h263 -r 12 -s qcif -b 64 -acodec amr_nb -ac 1 -ar 8000 -ab 4 /home/enc/test07.3gp
encoding h263, arm_nb (12.2kBit):
ffmpeg -i /home/video/U0003765.avi -vcodec h263 -r 12 -s qcif -b 64 -acodec amr_nb -ac 1 -ar 8000 -ab 12 /home/enc/test08.3gp
Two-pass encoding could be processed like in previous topic (h263,5fps,32kbs;amr_nb,8kHz,12kB/s):
#pass 1 ffmpeg -i /home/video/U0003773.avi -pass 1 -passlogfile logfile -vcodec h263 -r 5 -s qcif -b 32 -an /home/enc/test10.3gp #delete temp file rm -f /home/enc/test10.3gp #pass 2 ffmpeg -i /home/video/U0003773.avi -pass 2 -passlogfile logfile -vcodec h263 -r 5 -s qcif -b 32 -acodec amr_nb -ac 1 -ar 8000 -ab 12 /home/enc/test10.3gp
Encoding video using VLC.
Hinting.
For hinting media files we will use mpeg4ip packet. ([1])
NB!
mp4creator use extension to determinate file type. Next extensions should be used to name elementary stream files (in our case):
.263 - h263 elementary stream .264 - h264 elementary stream .mp4v, .m4v - mpeg4 elementary stream .aac - aac elementary stream .amr - amr elementary stream
Hinting mp4 files
check content of file:
[root@dev-3 enc]# mp4creator -list test05.mp4 Track Type Info 1 video H264 Baseline@5.1, 222.166 secs, 75 kbps, 176x144 @ 12.000036 fps 2 audio MPEG-4 AAC LC, 221.909 secs, 0 kbps, 24000 Hz
[root@dev-3 enc]# mp4creator -list test04.mp4 Track Type Info 1 video MPEG-4 Simple @ L1, 222.166 secs, 0 kbps, 176x144 @ 12.000036 fps 2 audio MPEG-4 AAC LC, 221.909 secs, 0 kbps, 24000 Hz
For creating proper mp4 or 3gp file with hint tracks we should remultplex and add hint track:
remultiplex:
