- ### FASTEST CROP WITH MINIMAL QUALITY LOSS #####################################################
- #
- # out_w:out_h: Width and height of the cropped area.
- # x:y: Top-left corner coordinates.
- # -crf 18: Visually lossless quality (lower numbers = higher quality; 17–18 is standard for high fidelity).
- # -c:a copy: Copies the audio without re-encoding it to save time
- ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -vf "crop=out_w:out_h:x:y" -c:v libx264 -crf 18 -c:a copy output.mp4
- ### CONCATENATE 360 VIDEO FILES WITH 360 METADATA INTACT #######################################
- #
- # even Google's AI got this wrong, sigh
- #
- # first, create list of files to be concatenated, let's call it filelist.txt
- # then type the filenames in it, like this:
- #
- # file '/path/to/file1.mp4'
- # file '/path/to/file2.mp4'
- # file '/path/to/file3.mp4'
- #
- # then type the following command:
- # the "-strict unofficial" will ensure that the 360 metadata will stay intact
- ffmpeg -f concat -safe 0 -i filelist.txt -c copy -strict unofficial output.mp4
- ### CHANGE AUDIO VOLUME LEVEL BY MULTIPLIER OR DECIBEL & PRESERVE 360 VIDEO #####################
- # change audio volume by 2x
- ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -af "volume=2" -c:v copy output.mp4
- # change audio volume into 5 dB
- ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -af "volume=5db" -c:v copy output.mp4
- # change audio volume by 2x AND preserve 360 video metadata
- # otherwise the metadata will be stripped & video players will play it as 2D video
- ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -af "volume=2" -c:v copy -strict unofficial output.mp4
- ### CONVERT TO WHATSAPP VIDEO FORMAT + CUT TO CERTAIN TIME #####################################
- # this will result in whatsapp.mp4 which contains the contents of input.mp4
- # starting from minute 36 seconds 21 , with length of 10 seconds
- # and it's compatible with WhatsApp
- ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -ss 00:36:21 -t 00:00:10 -vcodec libx264 -acodec aac whatsapp.mp4
- # My helmet cam produces videos in a strange format, which is rejected by WhatsApp everytime
- # This one-liner produces a video that will be able to be uploaded to WhatsApp
- ### RESIZE / SCALE ffmpeg encoding with VAAPI / hardware acceleration #########################
- # I got about 7x speed up + very low CPU usage
- # (so I'm able do other stuff while ffmpeg is busy doing the decoding/encoding)
- # need this installed first
- apt-get install intel-media-va-driver-non-free
- # if you keep getting the following error - that means you need to execute that command above:
- # Failed to create processing pipeline config: 12 (the requested VAProfile is not supported)
- # let's go
- time ffmpeg -init_hw_device vaapi=foo:/dev/dri/renderD128 -hwaccel vaapi -hwaccel_output_format vaapi -hwaccel_device foo -i INPUT-720p.mp4 -filter_hw_device foo -vf 'format=nv12|vaapi,hwupload,scale_vaapi=iw/2:ih/2:mode=hq,fps=fps=25' -c:v h264_vaapi -compression_level 1 -y -c:a copy OUTPUT-360p.mp4
- # to find your vaapi device, type : ls /dev/dri/*
- # see list of standard resolutions here : https://levvvel.com/169-resolutions/
- # remove ",fps=fps=25" bit if you're not changing the fps rate
- ### FASTEST WAY TO CUT A VIDEO #############################################################
- # this will result in output.mp4 which contains the contents of input.mp4
- # from minute 36 seconds 21 , with length of 10 seconds
- ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -ss 00:36:21 -t 00:00:10 -acodec copy -vcodec copy output.mp4
