Ok, let me explain in details. I have to split one video into large amount(usually more than 1000) of segments and reassemble segments into one video. Suppose I try split only, then command will be like ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -vcodec copy -acodec copy -ss 00:00:00 -t 00:01:00 -sn test_split001.mp4 -vcodec copy -acodec copy -ss 00:01:00 -t 00:02:00 -sn test_split002.mp4 -vcodec copy -acodec copy -ss 00:02:00 -t 00:13:50 -sn test_split003.mp4 -vcodec copy -acodec copy -ss 00:13:50 -t 00:19:27 -sn test_split004.mp4 ... Currently I am sending just one command per extraction to the kernel, because kernel doesn't accept if given command is too long. Since I am making too many segments, efficiency is way too low. This is why I asked you about modifying main(generating command arguments inside of main function). Did my answer cleared your question?

What are the “very long arguments”? If most of it’s a filter chain you can separate that into a file. _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-user mailing list ffmpeg-user@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-user To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-user-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe". _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-user mailing list ffmpeg-user@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-user To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-user-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
