2 years ago Hi
I got one video as a sample from you and I saw this source:
https://conspyre-1.s3.us-west-1.wasabisys.com/video_221001230624_vee58_400.mp4
how come you have a video resolution of 400p?
I am not 100% but I think the resolutions should follow the Encoder resolution
did you use the Encoder on those videos or direct upload?

2 years ago Daniel, everything goes through the encoder - we never use direct upload (ever), but not every video has a source resolution at 480, 540, 720 or 1080p. I believe I read somewhere about ffmpeg that by default it isn't going to upsample.
Can Roku not handle odd resolutions? We've got a lot of videos to up-and-or-downsample if so.
Is it possible to tell AVideo to re-encode a video? I suspect I have to turn on some lower resolutions, like 360P here so that 400P video gets downsampled to a common resolution (in this case 360P).

2 years ago Looking into this more, I had turned off 360p/480p/540p - thinking this is a "do not care" situation.
It seems that if I had left these on, for example, those 400P videos would have a 360P available & would work on Roku.
I've gone through and gotten a list of ≈360 videos that I need to re-encode.
Is there any workflow that has me scripting these into the encoder? Otherwise this is a daunting amount of work to re-encode.
Edited: I see the script reencodeAllVideos.php, but there are more than 11,000 of them - need to make this thing use just a list of IDs so I can re-encode those 360 vids…
Ok so it looks like it's just setting the state to "queued" for every video where id > 0, so, if it accepts the "in (...)" syntax here we can give it a list of IDs?
<?php
//streamer config
require_once '../videos/configuration.php';
if (!isCommandLineInterface()) {
return die('Command Line only');
}
$sql = "UPDATE {$global['tablesPrefix']}encoder_queue SET status = 'queue' where id > 0";
echo $sql . PHP_EOL;
$insert_row = $global['mysqli']->query($sql);
if ($insert_row) {
echo "All set to queue" . PHP_EOL;
} else {
die($sql . ' Error : (' . $global['mysqli']->errno . ') ' . $global['mysqli']->error);
}
echo "Bye";
echo "\n";
die();...but doing this, it doesn't seem that it is adding any videos to the encoder queue, no matter which of my encoders I run this script from.

2 years ago the thing is, it always saves the original resolution.
your video is probably a 400p video. and there is no lower resolution than that to convert. so the video has only 400p (which is a non-standard resolution).
the problem is, the streamer script check for all standard resolutions in a video, and I cannot make it search for all non-standard resolutions 1,2,3,4...200,201,...400,... If I do that, this will slow down the script a lot.
maybe you should try to enable the 240p at least, so this will guarantee you will have at least this resolution.
or maybe I will update the encoder, and force it to encode at least 1 lower resolution

2 years ago Update: even with 240P turned on, files that are >240P and <360P are not being transcoded. I used Handbrake to conform them, but I think there's a bug here.

Describe the bug I am looking at my Roku channel wondering "why is there missing media?"
I am looking at the program id 74478. It has 18 videos. https://conspyre.tv/program/74478
I am looking at the Roku JSON. It has 3 videos. https://conspyre.tv/roku.json?program_id=74478
To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Expected behavior There should be 18 videos in this Roku JSON.
Logs I cleared the cache and generated the Roku JSON. It's tripping on some videos files. No idea what it's tripping on, they're there, I just ran through the playlist and all files play.
