Hi There, We are putting a watermark on a mp4 video (using transcode) before using mencoder to process it further (to a m4v file with h264 and aacplus). At the moment we have this basic command:
#transcode -i movie.mp4 -o movie_out.mp4 -y ffmpeg -F mpeg4 -J logo=file=watermark-24bit.png:pos=91x79 See the output of running the command below.. but the questions i have are as follows: 1). We are getting this: "Error opening configuration file ./ffmpeg.cfg: No such file or directory", which i understand that becuase of this, it is using some sort of default settings? We are really trying to just parse this thru transcode, add a logo and then get a mp4 back with minimal loss of quality, so compression is not really high on the adjenda. What would be a good ffmpef.cfg for this? 2). Based on the output below, is there anything else we are doing wrong? Many thanks, Simon #transcode -i movie.mp4 -o movie_out.mp4 -y ffmpeg -F mpeg4 -J logo=file=watermark-24bit.png:pos=91x79 transcode v1.1.0 (C) 2001-2003 Thomas Oestreich, 2003-2009 Transcode Team [h264 @ 0xb710e610]brainfart cropping not supported, this could look slightly wrong ...
