I'm having issues while converting 192kbps mp3 using ffmpeg. The right channel somehow gets damaged. I'm using winff and I'm facing this problem only when using mp3 files having bit rate of 192 kbps . i've attached the screenshots of the file . Should i report a bug??
View 2 RepliesI've seen posts with similar titles on these forums, but I know nothing about the plethora of codes out there and all those thread seem to be way over my head. I've installed ffmpeg (an unrestricted version) but I can't convert m4a audio files to mp3 audio files. I installed a package called 'libavcodec52' from synaptic because it came up in the search results for 'm4a' and its description said something about m4a and ffmpeg but still no luck..

I've tried putting ffmpeg -i <infile.m4b> -acodec libmp3lame -ar 22050 <outfile.mp3> into terminal where "infile" is the filename I want converted and "outfile" is the new filename, but I keep getting the error message "bash: syntax error near unexpected token 'newline'"
What am I doing wrong?! I have tried sound converter, but it hates me and crashes.VLC told me "It seems your FFMPEG (libavcodec) installation lacks the following encoder: MPEG Audio layer 1/2/3."

I would like to make a script for converting music using ffmpeg. I have a lot of music that I would like to convert to a different format and I don't want to have to do it manually each time. At the moment, I am using this command to convert the music:

ffmpeg -i <nameofsong>.* <nameofsong>.mp3
Since ffmpeg 6 is out for some time, when will Ubuntu Lucid afford such a new ffmpeg package from its repository?

View 5 Replies View RelatedI am connecting from this Ubuntu 9.10 computer to a WRT54G running dd-wrt, over WPA2 AES. Normally, everything works fine and I get very satisfactory download speeds; usually 1.5+ Mbps. Sometimes though, usually after restarting networking a lot, i.e. /etc/init.d/networking restart, the download speed seems to be limited to around 64-70 kbps. It also happened recently when I disconnected from a vpn with vpnc. It's really strange because it has nothing to do with changing any settings.
The only things I can think of are POSSIBLY wpa_supplicant causing problems because that's the only thing besides networking that's restarted. It could be related to my router config but I can't imagine what because it runs so fast normally. Rebooting the router doesn't fix it. Restarting the network, manually killing wpa_supplicant, rebooting the router. None of these seem to fix it. The only way I've found is to just reboot. Obviously, something breaks at some point that isn't affected again by anything but a reboot.
Mencoder settings... I'm doing a simple transcoding of an avi file from FFmpeg MPEG4 codec to XVID MPEG-4 codec. The problem is that the audio bitrate is changing from 192 kbps to 32 kbps. The audio codec for both files is mp3 (MPEG-1 layer 3). (I'm transcoding the FFmpeg MPEG4 encoded avi because my blu-ray player doesn't see, let alone play it. Any XVID MPEG-4 encoded avi files the blu-ray player sees and plays fine). I ran mencoder trying the four settings below but the audio bitrate still comes out at 32 kbps:
Code:
mencoder camping_en.avi -ovc xvid -oac mp3lame -xvidencopts bitrate=192 -o camping_us.avi
mencoder camping_en.avi -ovc xvid -oac mp3lame -xvidencopts bitrate=687 -o camping_us.avi
mencoder camping_en.avi -ovc xvid -oac mp3lame -xvidencopts bitrate=9146 -o camping_us.avi
mencoder camping_en.avi -ovc xvid -oac mp3lame -xvidencopts bitrate=192000 -o camping_us.avi
How to keep the bitrate at 192 kbps?
I have spend the entire weekend trying to convert a mkv file with a DTS audio track to an AC3 audio track. I wrote a small article on it on my website with plenty of links and suggestions. I used applications like TVersity, PS3 Media Server, mkvdts2ac3 script, and avidemux. I just hope i can save someone's weekend with this. Anyway here is the link:

View 1 Replies View Relatedi am converting my DVDs into a media library. The ripping itself is no problem. (using Xilisoft dvd-rip under wine; works flawless).
when i convert to a mp4 file, with good quality, the output is always around 1.2 -1.8 gb. depending on the movie file. i tried Xvid and the size is pretty much the same. only by reduucing the pixel size etc... i get like a 600-800 mb file.
when i see other ripped movies, with about the same movie length, they getting 800mb mp4, in perfect quality, no smaller screen, pixels are great etc... is there any kind of advanced setting to it? bitrate, audio? to get down to this file size..?
I have mediatomb (0.12.0~svn2018-6ubuntu2) installed on Ubuntu Server 10.04.2 LTS which I use to serve video to my PS3 (slim version). MOst videos work fine but I have some mkv's giving me trouble.I'm trying to use mencoder to re-code the video to one that the PS3 can play. mkvinfo says the video track is Codec ID: V_MPEG4/ISO/AVC and the audio track is Codec ID: A_AC3.I used this command to convert to avi (found it in a thread on this forum):
mencoder -oac mp3lame -lameopts cbr=128 -ovc xvid -xvidencopts bitrate=1200 video.mkv -o video.avi
but the PS3 says the avi is an unsupported format.
I've got a bunch of HD files in .mkv format that I want to convert to a format that the 360 will read (currently just trying .avi files) so I can stream the media to my xbox360. I'd rather avoid transcoding the entire file, so I tried unpacking the .mkv file into audio and video (and subtitle if necessary) and repacking said file into avi using ffmpeg. The repacking is where I am having the problem. Here's the commands I tried at first (it might look familiar):
Code:
mkvextract tracks file.mkv 1:temp_video.avi 2:temp_audio.ogg 3:temp_sub.srt
ffmpeg -i temp_video.avi -i temp_audio.ogg -vcodec copy file.avi
However, I keep getting this annoying error:
Code:
Error while opening codec for output stream #0.1 - maybe incorrect parameters such as bit_rate, rate, width or height Where stream #0.1 is the output audio stream to the .avi file. I think I have narrowed it down to the fact that the input streams are all 6 channel (5.1 surround sound) which mp2 doesn't support (the ffmpeg audio default) so I did this instead:
Code:
ffmpeg -i temp_video.avi -i temp_audio.ogg -vcodec copy -acodec libmp3lame file.avi
I'm still getting the same error, but when I use
Code:
ffmpeg -i temp_video.avi -i temp_audio.ogg -vcodec copy -acodec libmp3lame -ac 2 file.avi
to change the sound to stereo it works. Problem is I'd like to keep my media in surround sound. Any thoughts on how to get all 6 channels in the new mp3 file? I'm fairly certain that mp3s support 5.1. And after some messing around, I haven't found that my ffmpeg can transcode audio format from 5.1 back to 5.1. So since (I think) the 360 can play .ac3 files I decided to just copy both the video and audio file to the .avi file sans transcoding using
Code:
ffmpeg -i temp_video.avi -i temp_audio.ogg -vcodec copy -acodec copy file.avi
however now about halfway through, I run into this error:
Code:
NULL @ 0x22f3a00]error, non monotone timestamps 62562 >= 62562
av_interleaved_write_frame(): Error while opening file I can't seem to find any solution to this problem anywhere online, does anyone know how to get around this? I'd prefer to use ffmpeg for this if possible. (so I can write a script and just attack an entire directory at once) For what it's worth, I'm using the latest ffmpeg in the ubuntu (karmic) default repositories.

It seems more and more people are encoding with the MKV container on bit torrent these days, and a lot of the shows I'm watching are starting to release almost exclusively with .mkv formatted videos. This is not a problem if I want to watch the shows on my computer but I've become accustomed to watching them on my PlayStation3 using my thumb drive. It seems the offical documentation for the PS3 includes a list of supported codecs [URL], but when I use FFMPEG to convert with libxvid video and aac audio in the MP4 container my PS3 says the output video is not supported. I've also tried most combinations of libxvid, libx264, mpeg4 for -vcodec and aac, libmp3lame for -acodec in several different container formats but nothing seems to work. I have found one option that always works:
Code:
ffmpeg -i inputfile.mkv -sameq -ac 2 outputfile.mpeg
I don't like doing it this way, however, as the output file is twice the size and the audio quality is terrible. If I don't reduce the audio channels to only two using -ac 2 FFMPEG throws an error (apparently MKV audio supports 6 channels). And preserving the video quality in MPEG video using -sameq produces too a large file (and I prefer to keep my files as lossless as possible). Ideally I want to save the files on an external HD I have but if a single episode of a show is 1.5 GB it's not very pratical.
Anyway, the PS3 docs say it supports h264 and xvid with aac audio, but apparently I'm doing something wrong. Has anyone sucessfully used FFMPEG to convert an MKV to MP4 for use on a PS3?
I have a .mkv container with proper video (h264/~6000kbps) and audio (DTS/1500kbps). For some reason I want to have similar quality but with another video and audio codecs. For video it goes well and ffmpeg is very helpful here, no problems. Also, I want DTS to become AC3/320-448kbps/5-6 channels. Commands like this:
Quote:
ffmpeg -i in.dts/mkv -acodec ac3 -ac 5 -ab 448k out.ac3
gives me not proper reordered sound in channels, so I hear center on the right, music on the left, etc.
Is there a way to make that properly with ffmpeg?
Also, I have a question about multi core encoding cause I have a quad processor. Ffmpeg seems not using them in all the way, I get something like 25% of CPU usage while encoding. Command -threads, even using the h264, does not make any extra load of cpu.
I'm making little animated bits in GIMP with the gap package. I can only get GIMP to encode the files as .avi. Problem here is that when I try to use any converter, it compresses 80MB files down to 1MB-4MB files and, unsurprisingly, the video quality is terrible. WinFF and ffmpeg (via terminal) output at a drastically reduced size. Is there some way to keep the files big/big-ish? I don't want to lose any detail.

How would I go about converting an MPG to a DVD format so I could burn it to a DVD disc and play it on a standard player?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am in Toronto Canada and we have NTSC television. I am going to England where they use PAL. My mom's DVD player cannot read NTSC.
I have a TV show on my PVR that I want to burn to a DVD so that she can see.
I have to output the program from the PVR to my DVD recorder; I do not have the hardware to send directly to my computer.
So I believe I must follow these steps:
Rip DVD to computer
Convert to PAL format
Burn to DVD
Trying to burn with CD/DVD Creator. I can't find anything in the program (settings wise) that will automatically convert mp3 files to wav files. I used to use k3b, and it used to do that.

Does anyone have a suggestion as to another program or place to find the burn setting for encoding?
