Of course, this can in general not be avoided.

Yes, but I don't think this is in general seen as a good solution.

Simpler maybe… but wouldn’t this result in a frame literally being dropped 
anytime the drop frame timecode "skips”? And maybe async option could fix the 
synch issues or through resampler. 

Actually that would count as “change the audio speed” wouldn’t it :P Either 
way, I’d be interested to know how it plays back, maybe if it’s not long enough 
it wouldn’t be discernible.

Only if you also change the audio speed.

The simpler solution is to force an output framerate instead of an
input video speed.

Re: [FFmpeg-user] Can ffmpeg convert these mp4 to that mp4?

2019-10-30 Thread arthur brogard via ffmpeg-user
You've answered before I got to  check for desync.
Okay then.  So what can I use?  This is the only command I've found so far that 
even runs.
My googling seems to indicate there's a chance this can't be done in ffmpeg in 
one hit.  I'm not at all clear on it  but I get the idea that we have to 
convert the file to some other format and then we can process it again to 
change the frame rate.
Do you happen to know about that?
I suppose it wouldn't be such a hassle if the two steps were in  batch file, 
come to think of it.

Forcing the video speed will lead to A/V desync unless the input is video-only, 
the input has already the chosen speed or there is a bug in the transcoding 
application.
Since changing the video speed with the input option r is a very hacking 
approach in FFmpeg, it does not always work.

Could this be avoided at least mostly by forcing it to be 24000/1001 instead? 
If that solves the issue of the 24fps not playing back on the TV that is. I 
sort of doubt that the source was actual 24 frames per second, maybe a mishap 
when it was encoded at some point changed this.

Well it looks like it was the frame rate alright.
I now have two of the vids I couldn't run before are running.
Just  how successful it is beyond that I don't know yet.  The sound could 
possibly go out of sync or something I guess.
Because one of them was a176,280kB file reporting a time length of  25:43  and 
ffmpeg has made a 170,957kB file out of it with a reported time length of 30:51.
So I haven't checked either of them right to the end but it sure is a good 
start.
The command line I found that works is:
ffmpeg -y -r 25 -i infile.mp4 outfile.mp4 simple as that.
So far so good.  Thanks for all the help.

mp4 is just a container, we need to know what is inside this container.
What video, what audio!
Use ffprobe on those files and send us the results.

[FFmpeg-user] Can ffmpeg convert these mp4 to that mp4?

2019-10-30 Thread arthur brogard via ffmpeg-user
I have an old tv that plays usb sticks and we use it for that.
But some formats pic and video it won't accept.
Not being into it I don't really understand why or what.
This time I have a bunch of microbe animations and it plays some and some it 
says 'unsupported format'.
I note the details of two of the 'unsupported' formats: 

1.  mp4.  1920 x 1080  423kbps  24 fps2.  mp4   1280 x 720  672kbps  30 fps
and one file that it plays happily:
mp4  854 x 478  853 kbps  25fps.
Can anyone detect what the basic problem is and can I fix it by running the 
files through ffmpeg with the appropriate command line, whatever that might be?
