dvplay issue

[jfeakes]

Fresh install of dvrescue through homebrew. All ffmpeg text is piped out but then receiving the following error and an exit when running dvplay command on known good PAL .dv file. This error also occurs on dvrescue's sample files.

[Parsed_tile_2 @ 0x7f35b00a7e40] Option 'init_padding' not found0 Error initializing filter 'tile' with args 'layout=8x4:init_padding=31:overlap=31:padding=1'

Any help much appreciated.

@jfeakes were dvplay commands working for you with a previous version?

Hi. I've had it working on other setups in the past which I imagine were earlier versions. This is a fresh 18.04 Ubuntu install so no previous versions have been used on this system.

@jfeakes does it make a difference if you install from the latest Ubuntu release from MediaArea (as opposed to the Homebrew install)

Unfortunately not. Removed homebrew install and installed from MediaArea along with dependencies. Exact same error shows when attempting dvplay again.

I can't say for certain as I don't have a machine running 18.04 and don't have time today to dive super deep, but this looks to me like possibly an FFmpeg version issue.

Is your version of FFmpeg still one of the 3.x.x versions? I think you should be able to get up to one of the version 4s via snap install ffmpeg - might be worth a shot!

@jfeakes Are you seeing this warning in the terminal output when you run that command?

https://github.com/mipops/dvrescue/blob/main/tools/dvplay#L128-L129

Could you send me an ffmpeg output for the version you're running so I could compare to the requirements.

Hi, no can't see that error. Here is full ffmpeg output for the command:

Is your version of FFmpeg still one of the 3.x.x versions? I think you should be able to get up to one of the version 4s via snap install ffmpeg - might be worth a shot!

Thanks for the idea. As I'm running Ubuntu 18.04 I think the latest supported release is 3.4.11

Might say #wontfix on this as ffmpeg at that age wouldn't be ideal for handling dv. I do wonder why the version check didn't work though. @jfeakes could you give the output of ffmpeg -version on your machine. I'm guessing this ffmpeg is also too old to support the -version command.
