FFMpeg conversion command / settings, can anyone help?
 

/usr/local/bin/ffmpeg -i {input_file} -copyts -b 400k -ar 44100 -s {input_width}x{input_height} {output_file};
/usr/local/bin/flvtool2 -U -c -duration:{duration} {output_file}

Looking to improve quality without destroying a server. Any suggestions?

For desktop viewing i assume?

400k? What sizes you aiming for?

It's for streaming flash. I'm aiming for the right balance between quality and not blowing up my server. :upsidedow

To be clear, uploading mp4 and converting to flv at whatever bitrate...

Id stick to this, but looks like you need better rate

-f flv -ar 22050 -ab 56 -r 25 -b 650k

You are a dumb ass. :2 cents:

No idea what all that does but I'll try it and compare. Thank you.

Because he/she is clarifying if it was for desktop or streaming to some other device such as mobile?

You are awesome at business relationships. Well done.

Its a string command to convert videos on server side using ffmpeg, genius. :1orglaugh
He was asking about parameters for it. Such as bitrate, audio, and size. :1orglaugh
Why don't you stick to something you actually know. Im assuming you do design. So how about u just do that. Besides, nobody is doing any business with clown Pipo.

I know what it is fucktard, majority of my time is spent developing advanced PHP applications with a lot of that time focused on custom tube CMS's built from scratch in the $xx,xxx of dollars budget, advanced features you could never dream of, let alone have any clue how to create.

Also, FFMPEG isn't just server side, it can be used easily on the desktop to encode videos locally. Which has nothing to do with any of this anyway, well done keeping on topic!

Either way, Jack Sparrow's question was valid because I would encode videos with different parameters for different platforms. He asked for "improved quality" which is relative to the media it is being served on, he was not specific on the platform. I assume Jack Sparrow was asking if the videos were being streamed for desktops, mobile, gaming stations, etc... Why would I encode the same video quality for streaming video on a high def 60" plasma on my PS3 as I would on my mobile phone?

You are stuck in a one world mind set, misunderstood the question, and then look like even more of a douche bag for defending what you misunderstood.

Again, well done. You are a dumb ass. :2 cents:

wouldn't a compressed / converted web stream version of the mp4 be better inside of the flv? mp4 will give you html5 with desktop/mobile ... two in one

yep.....

First giveaway of true assclown - brag about your budgets and how important you are. :1orglaugh:1orglaugh
Who are you kid? Please remind us who you work with and which sites you built? You'd make great sidekick for Pipo. :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

What PSP numb nut? -copyts -b 400k -ar 44100 -s ? Thats what you encode for PSP for your xx,xxx projects?

Go fuck yourself, clown. He specifically said its on the server side. Even posted path to it - /usr/local/bin/ffmpeg
Every tube script has that line of code. What he probably meant is he doesn't want to overload his server converting videos on the fly and streaming them later.

This forum becoming a honeypot for morons.

I'm an idiot so not sure how to accomplish that. It's TubeAce if that matters.

I think tubeace does use mp4 files and not flvs like clip bucket and other look-a-like scripts.
Are you concerned with size or with overloading your server while converting them?

There is a difference between bragging and answering someone when they challenge you on what you know. I have confidence in my quality of work and people pay very well for it.

I don't need to remind you of fuck all, I have worked with hundreds of webmasters over the years.

"Go fuck yourself, clown. He specifically said its on the server side. Even posted path to it - /usr/local/bin/ffmpeg" - YOU WERE THE ONLY PERSON EVER TO DISCUSS THIS, NOBODY HAD SAID ONCE THAT IT WASN'T SERVER SIDE, JESUS CHRIST.

The level of retard in you is unreal.

If I continue to argue with you, It would really be a new low for me. You still don't even understand what we are arguing about and are slowly turning it towards me personally which is the greatest sign of the true loser in this conversation.

:action-sm:action-sm:action-sm

Run on a limited virt on your server so you don't overload if you are running into that...

400k on an flv isn't going to give your stream much bandwidth to play with and you will end up with a ton of compression artifacts in that range... aim for 800k-1k min, and as mentioned using an mp4/x264/h264 container will give you much more compatibility then the on it's way out flv.

why don't you have any samples of your work on your website? all i see is 'creating powerful and profitable websites' on your splash page. why not mention some of the sites?

I owned / operated an affiliate program for 3 years. Before that I was a designer for 9-10 years and worked in many positions for people. I just started getting back into developing for other people a few months ago. I have a great list of contacts that know me and have worked with over the years. About 10 of them have consistently been giving me project after project to work on.

I am not accepting new clients unless it's a small quick job I can fit within a couple hours, there is no need for me to advertise myself at the moment. Either way, I will be moving away from this custom development direction shortly and selling premade scripts and web applications on a monthly service basis and a few free services for webmasters to use for work productivity.

I will be needing beta testers shortly if you are interested.

My intention was not to come in this thread and talk about myself, my apologizes to the OP. I just simply thought Just Alex was a dick for no reason, at least not a reason that fit into the topic of this thread.

Who the fuck are you, chubby cheeks? Asking you again.


---> Confidence :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

Thats because he's one of Pipos sidekicks with imaginary clients and projects that's worth $xx,xxx in imaginary currency. :1orglaugh

Come back when you have something to show. Right now you're just another ass clown with lots of NOTHING !
Hit Jack Sparrow on ICQ. You two will get along very well if you haven't done so already. He too has imaginary clients and stories to tell. Here, don't forget to wear work uniform, chubby cheeks.

You just won't end this?

Started many years ago, had an old nickname, "InsaneMidget", that I started as an immature kid. I mostly stopped using it years ago, now I go by Zoxxa. I have been doing this for about 14 years, I am 28 now. Doing this for a living now for about 7-8 years, I started taking it seriously after I met and married my wife Jenn (NaughtyJenn) and had two kids. I worked along side of xApster for years, and grew traffic networks with him and on my own that reached millions a day multiple times over. I have worked on large and small projects with dozens and dozens of people/businesses ranging from being a traffic consultant for Playboy, Sex.com and a few other large networks and sites such as GayMovieDome for Godsmack to designing for people such as Mayor from Porncity, Mojo Brad, HellC, Slick, and fuck tons of others. I launched and sold a small affiliate program (GFCash.com) that I ran for years with a partner and turned into a million dollar business. Along with a few other side projects that did very well. I am currently working on multiple projects for myself and on others as I mentioned. There will be a couple huge things coming this summer and I imagine you will want to be using these services. I will not be mentioning these new projects until they launch. My own projects are secretive at the moment and the large projects for other people have signed NDA's ( Thats what actual business people use if you weren't sure ).

So thats the quick version, I have nothing to hide and gave you plenty of things to pick out for ammo in your childish rants about clowns and chubby cheeks. It's quite pathetic really, and I am annoyed at myself for even communicating further with you. You are embarrassing to me.

All in all though, you still don't get it. This has nothing to do with you misunderstanding Jack Sparrow's fucking question. Which by the way, I have never spoken to Jack in my life, we aren't friends. I just think you're a cock that needs to redirect the direction of topics when you failed miserably.

So, who are you faggot?

This thread delivers :)

Oh, I see. Another one of those grunt workers that always have stories of them when they "were" or "will be", but never "is". A whole bunch of nothing with lots of fuzz. Related to Nick3131 by any chance, chubby cheeks?


http://www.reactionface.info/sites/d...1534610683.jpg

And who am I? Im one of those guys that once in a while gets suckered into hiring one of you loud mouth hotshots to do some simple task, only to find myself month later chasing you around & listening to sobbing stories about dead cats, sick grandmothers, eviction notices, stolen cars and other bullshit .
Come back this summer and we will talk, mental midget. :321GFY

You are fantastic.
http://assets0.ordienetworks.com/ima...ping/riker.gif

and who the fuck is Nick3131?

Claiming to be around this biz for so many years and don't know who nick3131 is?
He's your illegitimate half-brother from Florida and posts on JBM a lot. At least he used to.

No idea who that is, maybe I did years ago.

I am not sure you have made one comment today with any merit or based by any type of fact at all. I have told you who I am and if you like to admit it or not, I actually have some footing in this industry. Just because I am not on here all day trolling and spamming my photoshopped stats in my sig doesn't mean I am some GFY piece of shit like yourself. Either way, I don't see what your homosexually fueled aggression towards me and "Who I am" has anything to do with anything.

All I really know is that this is starting to lose my interest unless you can pull your lacking insults out of the gutter soon. I thought we were doing well there for a bit.

I have nothing more to prove to you, never did in the first place.

Here is a quick copy/paste vocab for you so we can save some time:

- chubby cheeks
- mental midget
- clown pipo
- :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh
- assclown
- grunt
- loud mouth

Some real gems in there, you know what time it is don't you?

Problem is I have no idea how to do any of this. One of the reasons I was looking for a partner. :1orglaugh

If anyone knows for sure if TubeAce can handle this please shoot me a quote if you can take care of it.

Cheers

ffmpeg changes frequently, the command line breaks a lot I believe

Awesome to see alex (if im correct about who you are, you are one of the biggest lying losers around and have absolutely NO fucking idea how to run a biz or how to keep your employees .. and basically are j's bitch and paperboy) making an even bigger fool out of himself.

He didnt even understand WHY the question i asked can be really important. And with every line trying to defend himself he makes it more clear how he doesnt have a clue about what this is all about lol.

The guy you attacked owned your silly ass both off and ontopic. Now tell us all here, WHAT great achievements did you make again? $1000 you arent going to post your biggest site in public, because it would be that easy for me to tear you apart :)

Funny shit :)

this has some good examples

LOL. Look who checked his clown shoes in. :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh
The mega boss with imaginary employees. :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh
How is your biz going ass clown? Any major announcements? :1orglaugh:1orglaugh:1orglaugh You two should hook up.

PS: if you knew what he was talking about, you wouldn't have asked your dumb ass question. But you're fucking dumb..

I am a real & happy client of Zoxxa. He does Great job and has excellent skills. :2 cents:



I am pretty much interested in tweaking ffmpeg too, here's my scenario: MechBunny tube script, here are my encoding options, I would like to tweak the mobile encoding quality:
Desktop video encoding options:
$ffmpeg_command = "-acodec libfaac -keyint_min 20 -r 20 -vcodec libx264 -vpre hq -crf 25 -b 300k -bt 300k -y -v 0 -bf 16 -threads 0";
Mobile video encoding options:
$ffmpeg_mobile_command = "-acodec libfaac -ab 128kb -vcodec mpeg4 -b 800kb -mbd 2 -cmp 2 -subcmp 2";

I modded bitrate from original 300 to 800, but the video is still not That good. Filesize is the ~same as the original flv [has a ~880 bitrate]

And I really don't want to hijack the thread but I am looking forward for some help with fine-tuning the imagemagick command line as well to have better thumbs and overlay images, here's what I use atm:
$imagick_command = "-modulate 110,102,100 -sharpen 1x1 -enhance";

Post after post, you become more and more fucking clueless. Way to go champ!

How about you show us something? Seriously, who the fuck are you?

We can see that you can make fake stats screenshots, and make yourself look like a fucking tool, what else can you do?

Did you find your old nick chubster?
