Video lagging a lot #38

Open DanilochTop opened 1 year ago

DanilochTop commented 1 year ago

No errors in output, audio plays fine, but the video is lagging a lot, only some frames are playing... Do you guys have some suggestions to fix this issue?

dank074 commented 1 year ago

Make sure you're using h264 codec since the encoder for that uses a lot less cpu than vp8. If your computer/vps still struggles with that you can decrease the bitrate and/or resolution

DanilochTop commented 1 year ago

Thanks for the help, but apparently I don't believe it's a cpu problem, since ffmpeg isn't consuming even 10% of it looking through the task manager. I'll try hosting on a VPS and see if this problem is fixed, as soon as I have an answer I'll let you know.

DanilochTop commented 1 year ago

I just tested with a VPS, and it seems to work fine (almost), i just needed to set the stream FPS to 15, but that's not a problem for me. For better results maybe I need a better CPU?

dank074 commented 1 year ago

If it wasn't using too much cpu but the resulting video was still slow it could be your internet speed. Try lowering the bitrate and resolution

Can you test the current version of the package? I've optimized various parts in the code, and it should be purely IO bound now.

Same thing. Even with 240p 15fps https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/f95dc66d-5123-4bb8-8176-6252e9763b7c

I've added buffer and performance/quality is fine now. I deleted

-fflags nobuffer
-analyzeduration 0

and added

-bufsize 6000k

But audio still ahead of the video. And I have no idea how to fix that

dank074 commented 1 month ago

What kind of video input is it? A regular video file or a m3u8 livestream? I know that there's an issue with certain m3u8 streams where the audio is out of sync with the video and the only solution I found was to remove the '-re' flag. There's an open issue about it

Darwin1546 commented 1 month ago

I'm using this interface https://github.com/ysdragon/StreamBot

It doesn't support readAtNativeFps option afaik Is '-re' enabled by default?

I've tested local file and youtube video (it still loads locally)

Also this https://github.com/ysdragon/StreamBot/issues/37#issue-2417751216

At some point it was the default, until I removed it and added it as an option instead since it did not affect all video files
