Merge Videos

[damogallagher]

Hi

I was following this issue but I am still having issues merging 2 video files My code is as follows `@Test public void test() throws IOException { String introVideoFile="C:\development\vid\final\tmpIntro_3.mp4"; String videoContentFile="C:\development\vid\final\tmpContent_3.mp4";

    VideoPropertiesVO videoPropertiesVO = new VideoPropertiesVO();
    videoPropertiesVO.setOutputVideoFileLocation("C:\\development\\vid\\final\\output.mp4");
    boolean concatResult = concatVideos(videoPropertiesVO, introVideoFile, videoContentFile);
    System.out.println("concatResult:" + concatResult);
}

private static boolean concatVideos(VideoPropertiesVO videoPropertiesVO, String introVideoFile, String videoContentFile)
        throws IOException {
    System.out.println("introVideoFile:" + introVideoFile);
    System.out.println("videoContentFile:" + videoContentFile);

    FFmpeg ffmpeg = new FFmpeg(Constants.FFMPEG_EXE_PATH);;
    FFprobe ffprobe= new FFprobe(Constants.FFPROBE_EXE_PATH);   

    Path listOfFiles = null;
    try {
        Path intro = Paths.get(introVideoFile);
        Path content = Paths.get(videoContentFile);

        Path[] files = new Path[2];
        files[0] = intro;
        files[1] = content;

        String filesStrings = List(files).map(f -> f.toAbsolutePath().toString()).map(p -> "file '" + p + "'")
                .mkString(System.getProperty("line.separator"));

        listOfFiles = Files.createTempFile(intro.getParent(), "ffmpeg-list-", ".txt");
        Files.write(listOfFiles, filesStrings.getBytes());

        FFmpegBuilder builder = new FFmpegBuilder()
                .setInput(listOfFiles.toAbsolutePath().toString())
                .setFormat(FORMAT_CONCAT).addExtraArgs("-safe")
                .addOutput(videoPropertiesVO.getOutputVideoFileLocation())
                .setAudioCodec(CODEC_COPY)
                .setVideoCodec(CODEC_COPY).done();
        builder.setVerbosity(Verbosity.DEBUG);

        FFmpegExecutor fFmpegExecutor = new FFmpegExecutor(ffmpeg, ffprobe);

        fFmpegExecutor.createJob(builder).run();

    } catch (IOException e) {
        System.out.println("Error during Ffmpeg conversion: Exception:" + e);
    } finally {
        Path finalListOfFiles = listOfFiles;
        if (nonNull(listOfFiles)) {
            Try(() -> Files.deleteIfExists(finalListOfFiles));
        }
    }
    return true;
}`

I can verify that all files do exist. The output I get is as follows introVideoFile:C:\development\vid\final\tmpIntro_3.mp4 videoContentFile:C:\development\vid\final\tmpContent_3.mp4 ffmpeg version N-89343-g83ecdc9a92 Copyright (c) 2000-2017 the FFmpeg developers built with gcc 7.2.0 (GCC) configuration: --enable-gpl --enable-version3 --enable-sdl2 --enable-bzlib --enable-fontconfig --enable-gnutls --enable-iconv --enable-libass --enable-libbluray --enable-libfreetype --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libopenjpeg --enable-libopus --enable-libshine --enable-libsnappy --enable-libsoxr --enable-libtheora --enable-libtwolame --enable-libvpx --enable-libwavpack --enable-libwebp --enable-libx264 --enable-libx265 --enable-libxml2 --enable-libzimg --enable-lzma --enable-zlib --enable-gmp --enable-libvidstab --enable-libvorbis --enable-cuda --enable-cuvid --enable-d3d11va --enable-nvenc --enable-dxva2 --enable-avisynth --enable-libmfx libavutil 56. 4.100 / 56. 4.100 libavcodec 58. 6.102 / 58. 6.102 libavformat 58. 2.103 / 58. 2.103 libavdevice 58. 0.100 / 58. 0.100 libavfilter 7. 5.100 / 7. 5.100 libswscale 5. 0.101 / 5. 0.101 libswresample 3. 0.101 / 3. 0.101 libpostproc 55. 0.100 / 55. 0.100 Splitting the commandline.

Could someone please help to validate what may be the issue here?

Thank you Damien

Hi, could you solve it? im facing the same issue when adding the .addExtraArgs("-safe")

[HadesDX]

I got it working! using .addExtraArgs("-safe", "0")

[ghost]

What is CODEC_COPY in your code?

[willy-wonka-git]

I got it working! using .addExtraArgs("-safe", "0")

I'm trying but not working. Windows

    try {
        FFprobe ffprobe = new FFprobe("d:\\Distr\\ffprobe.exe");
        FFmpeg ffmpeg = new FFmpeg("d:\\Distr\\ffmpeg.exe");

        FFmpegProbeResult probeResult = ffprobe.probe("d:\\11111\\lqCfwIbG1EU.mp4");
        FFmpegFormat format = probeResult.getFormat();

        FFmpegStream  stream = probeResult.getStreams().get(0);

        FFmpegBuilder builder = new FFmpegBuilder()
                .setInput("d:\\11111\\list.txt") 
                .setFormat("concat") 
                .addExtraArgs("-safe", "0")
                .overrideOutputFiles(true) // Override the output if it exists
                .addOutput("d:\\11111\\output.mp4") // Filename for the destination
                //.setTargetSize(250_000) // Aim for a 250KB file
                .disableSubtitle() // No subtiles

                .setAudioChannels(1) // Mono audio
                .setAudioCodec("aac") // using the aac codec
                .setAudioSampleRate(48_000) // at 48KHz
                .setAudioBitRate(32768) // at 32 kbit/s

                .setVideoCodec("libx264") // Video using x264
                .setVideoFrameRate(24, 1) // at 24 frames per second
                .setVideoResolution(1080, 720) // at 640x480 resolution

                .setStrict(FFmpegBuilder.Strict.EXPERIMENTAL) // Allow FFmpeg to use experimental specs
                .done();

            builder.setVerbosity(FFmpegBuilder.Verbosity.DEBUG);

        FFmpegExecutor executor = new FFmpegExecutor(ffmpeg, ffprobe);

        // Run a one-pass encode
        executor.createJob(builder).run();

        // Or run a two-pass encode (which is better quality at the cost of being slower)
        //executor.createTwoPassJob(builder).run();

    } catch (Exception e) {
        System.err.println(e);
    }

The error seems to be:

Opening an input file: d:\11111\list.txt.
d:\11111\list.txt: No such file or directory

Are you sure that file exists?

The fact is that everything is in place. Will think

[pgupt]

What is CODEC_COPY in your code?

it is just "copy"

[konclackgilles]

I also have the same problem I need to input the content of a text file over a video but. I get the error, that you show above. it's maybe impossible to concat a text file witch image?

[clicit]

Same problem here, anyone got this working? @HadesDX maybe? When I start ffmpeg manually from the command with exactly the same parameters, there is no problem.

Thanks!

Thanks!

I got it working now: I was using relative paths in the TXT file. Using absolute paths there solved the problem!

I'll close this issue, as it seems to be resolved. Feel free to reopen or create a new issue.
