<h5>Making FFmpeg Easier</h5>
|
||
<p>FFmpeg is a powerful tool for manipulating audiovisual files. Unfortunately, it also has a steep learning curve, especially for users unfamiliar with a command line interface. This app helps users through the command generation process so that more people can reap the benefits of FFmpeg. </p>
|
||
<p>This project is very much a work in progress. Each button displays helpful information about how to perform a wide variety of tasks using FFmpeg. To use this site, click on the task you would like to perform. A new window will open up with a sample command and a description of how that command works. You can copy this command, and after specifying an [input] and possibly an [output], you can then use this command in a Terminal.</p>
|
||
<p>For FFmpeg basics, check out the program's <a href="https://www.ffmpeg.org/">official website.</a></p>
|
||
<p>For Bash and command line basics, try the <a href="http://cli.learncodethehardway.org/book/">Command Line Crash Course</a></p>

<p>This command takes two or more files of the same file type and joins them together to make a single file. All that the program needs is a text file with a list specifying the files that should be joined. However, it only works properly if the files to be combined have the exact same codec and technical specifications. Be careful, ffmpeg may appear to have successfully joined two video files with different codecs, but may only bring over the audio from the second file or have other weird behaviors. Don’t use this command for joining files with different codecs and technical specs and always preview your resulting video file!

|
||
|
||
<p>This command splits the original input file into a video and audio stream. The -map command identifies which streams are mapped to which file. To ensure that you’re mapping the right streams to the right file, run ffprobe before writing the script to identify which stream is 0:0, which is 0:1, etc. </p>

<h3>Transcode to h.264</h3>
|
||
<p><code>ffmpeg -i [input file] -vcodec libx264 -acodec copy [output file.mp4]</code></p>
|
||
|
||
<p>This command takes an input file and transcodes it to h.264 with an .mp4 wrapper, keeping the audio the same codec as the original. The libx264 codec defaults to a “medium” preset for compression quality and a CRF of 23. CRF stands for constant rate factor and determines the quality and file size of the resulting h.264 video. A low CRF means high quality and large file size; a high CRF means the opposite. </p>
|
||
|
||
<ul>
|
||
<li>ffmpeg: Calls the program ffmpeg</li>
|
||
<li>-i: Tells ffmpeg to expect an input file</li>
|
||
<li>[input file]: Tells ffmpeg the location of the file you want to process</li>
|
||
<li>-vcodec libx264: Tells ffmpeg to change the video codec of the file to h264 -acodec copy: tells ffmpeg not to change the audio codec</li>
|
||
<li>[output file.mp4]: Specifies the name and location of the new file, including the desired codec extension</li>
|
||
</ul>
|
||
|
||
<p>In order to use the same basic command to make a higher quality file, you can add some of these presets:</p>
|
||
<p><code>ffmpeg -i [input file] -vcodec libx264 -acodec copy -preset veryslow -crf 18 [output file.mp4]</code></p>
|
||
|
||
<li>-preset veryslow: This option tells ffmpeg to use the slowest preset possible for the best compression quality</li>
|
||
<li>-crf 18: Specifying a lower CRF will make a larger file with better visual quality</li>
|
||
|
||
<p>libx264 also defaults to 4:2:2 chroma subsampling. Some versions of Quicktime can't read x264 files in 4:2:2. In order to allow the video to play in all Quicktime players, you can specify 4:2:0 chroma subsampling instead:</p>
|
||
<p><code>ffmpeg -i [input file] -vcodec libx264 -pix_fmt yuv420p -acodec copy -preset veryslow -crf 18 [output file.mp4]</code></p>
|
||
|
||
<li>-pix_fmt yuv420p: Specifies a pixel format of YUV 4:2:0 to allow the file to play in a standard Quicktime player</li>
