| Halexander9000 | Greetings from Eastern Europe, gentlehumans! I have 495 png files. I use this command to combine them into a video file at 16 frames per second: "ffmpeg -i 'frame%d.png' -r 16 out.mkv". But instead of getting a video file 495:16=30.9375 seconds in length, I somehow end up with a 19 second one. Could someone please tell me what seems to be the problem? | 06:16 |
| holstein | mabye your code | 06:16 |
| holstein | i would try it again, and then maybe try a few different output file types | 06:17 |
| holstein | mabye try a different settings or 2 | 06:17 |
| Halexander9000 | Thank you for your concern, but I realize that I mixed up some commands. | 06:25 |
| holstein | Halexander9000: cool :) | 06:25 |
| Halexander9000 | Apparently Coca-Cola is not a good coffee substitute at 8:25 am. | 06:25 |
| holstein | nah... you need the goods! | 06:26 |
| Halexander9000 | The goods? | 06:26 |
| CFHowlett | *jolt cola!* | 06:26 |
| Halexander9000 | Oh, hey you. | 06:26 |
| CFHowlett | Halexander9000 glad you know where the REAL ubuntu action is! | 06:27 |
| Halexander9000 | CFHowlett: Tried the ffmpeg room too. Seems to be dead so far. | 06:27 |
| CFHowlett | Halexander9000 yeah, I've noticed that. So, you're making a gif or a video? Do we get to see this creation? | 06:28 |
| Halexander9000 | CFHowlett: I'm messing around with a random desktop recording of me playing a youtube file of a clip from Courage the Cowardly dog with that creepy wiggly armed blue guy with his hand stuck to his head telling Courage that he's not perfect in his dream/nightmare. | 06:30 |
| Halexander9000 | I think if was extracted from the last episode of the show. | 06:30 |
| Halexander9000 | I'm just doing this to get accustomed with the software. | 06:30 |
| CFHowlett | sounds like fun. You have openshot too? | 06:31 |
| Halexander9000 | CFHowlett: If I do make something worth your time, I'll let you know. | 06:31 |
| Halexander9000 | I need Youtube viewers anyhow :D | 06:31 |
| CFHowlett | fair enough. here's my latest still to video conversion https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ua_vTyR9jEs&list=PLCD6C3483E4436CD3&index=1&feature=plcp | 06:31 |
| Halexander9000 | Openshot is kind of glitchy with .ogv files. | 06:31 |
| Halexander9000 | CFHowlett: What does CFHowlett stand for? | 06:32 |
| CFHowlett | Halexander9000 I haven't done .ogv yet. I found openshot much easier that cinelerra | 06:32 |
| Halexander9000 | CFHowlett: I'm afraid of video editors now since I have a 2008 netbook as my main and only machine. A unmodified factory ASUS EEE PC 904HD. | 06:36 |
| CFHowlett | Halexander9000 well you should be quite happy to run ubuntustudio as it's now based on xfce - lighter load and all that | 06:36 |
| Halexander9000 | CFHowlett: So, did you got hired? | 06:37 |
| CFHowlett | Halexander9000 Travel authorization documents have just entered american airspace and I expect to be in China by end of month. | 06:39 |
| Halexander9000 | CFHowlett: Erm... do you intend to become a Chinese citizen? | 06:40 |
| CFHowlett | Don't intend to ... not that they'd make it easy. I plan to see as many countries as I can. Just going there to work is all. | 06:40 |
| Halexander9000 | CFHowlett: I have this weird feeling that China is going to declare war all of Earth's nations and especially America. Don't ask why. Emotions are supposed to be illogical. | 06:41 |
| CFHowlett | Halexander9000 Personally, I'm more scared of North Korea ... | 06:42 |
| Halexander9000 | Psh... North Korea has nothing on China. | 06:42 |
| CFHowlett | Halexander9000 I kind of trust china to act with SOME kind of sense. NK, not so much ... | 06:43 |
| Halexander9000 | CFHowlett: China has tech to knockdown all satellites from the sky, bringing down world wide communications and has it's own independent network of satellites for global positioning. | 06:45 |
| CFHowlett | Halexander9000 could be. but enough ruminating ... there's buntu's to play with! | 06:45 |
| Halexander9000 | True, true. And I still have half a two litter of Cola to consume XD | 06:46 |
| CFHowlett | more caffeine in mountain dew ... | 06:46 |
| Halexander9000 | CFHowlett: I too want to visit Japan one day... and learn Japanese. I never ever traveled over my own country's border. | 06:48 |
| CFHowlett | Halexander9000 I'm an old fart and I waited TOO long to do so. Get passport, get tickets and get out of town, young man! | 06:48 |
| Halexander9000 | CFHowlett: My birthday is only composed of 1 and 9 digits only. Guess my birthdate, and you'll know just how young I am. Hint: Month is a double digit. | 06:50 |
| Halexander9000 | Congrats for your being a father! | 06:51 |
| Halexander9000 | I was about to say "your son" but I don't know enough. So I have to correct that: "you being a father*" | 06:52 |
| CFHowlett | :) | 06:54 |
| Halexander9000 | CFHowlett: This is strange... "ffmpeg -f image2 -i frame%d.png -r 16 out.mkv" does that same weird behavior. | 06:55 |
| CFHowlett | Halexander9000 try a different container - mpeg or mp4 | 06:55 |
| Halexander9000 | CFHowlett: I'll see if I can... | 06:56 |
| Halexander9000 | CFHowlett: Nope, same darn thing. "ffmpeg -f image2 -i frame%d.png -r 16 out.mp4" still outputs 19 seconds. | 07:01 |
| CFHowlett | Halexander9000 play with the settings - 24 for example. | 07:03 |
| Halexander9000 | CFHowlett: But... I recorded the thing at 16 fps... that will shorten the video to... um... 19 seconds... Wait a minute... | 07:04 |
| Halexander9000 | Are you saying that ffmpeg forces the video to have at least 24 fps even though I tell it not to? | 07:04 |
| CFHowlett | 16 fps is an odd settings - most videos default to 24 | 07:05 |
| Halexander9000 | Well, I am an odd person with an odd computer. | 07:05 |
| CFHowlett | oooooookay | 07:05 |
| Halexander9000 | CFHowlett: So I can't force it to 16 fps? | 07:05 |
| CFHowlett | you did the right command to force sfaik but research how to force it. I suspect the answer is simple but conveniently obscure ... | 07:06 |
| Halexander9000 | If it's obscure, I'm sure the word convenient is not the one you're looking for. | 07:07 |
| CFHowlett | *simple* but obscure | 07:07 |
| Halexander9000 | CFHowlett: North Korea. Racist nation? | 07:11 |
| CFHowlett | Halexander9000 never been ... can't say from experience. | 07:12 |
| Halexander9000 | Got past the first episode of your podcast. | 07:13 |
| CFHowlett | ah! thank you for listening! | 07:14 |
| Halexander9000 | CFHowlett: Now I have to relisten and search for the content you referenced so I can download and read. | 07:20 |
| Halexander9000 | I'll subscribe instead. I'm trying to solve my problem right now. | 07:20 |
| CFHowlett | fair enough. fyi, links are on the blog ... | 07:20 |
| Halexander9000 | CFHowlett: I'll make sure to check that later. In the mean time some guy suggested I should check this out "did you telling ffmpeg what the framerate of the input was ?""ie. put the -r 16 before the -i FILE""then try what I suggested" | 07:23 |
| Halexander9000 | Neither this "ffmpeg -f image2 -i -r 16 frame%d.png -r 24 out.mp4" or this ""ffmpeg -f image2 -r 16 -i frame%d.png -r 24 out.mp4" is a working command. I always get a "command not found". | 07:24 |
| CFHowlett | try it! | 07:24 |
| Halexander9000 | I already did. I don't complain about thing I didn't try. | 07:24 |
| CFHowlett | I'm afraid you've got a spot of research ahead ... http://ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg.html | 07:25 |
| CFHowlett | wait 1 .... | 07:25 |
| CFHowlett | bit rate/frame rate/ all kinds of rates. I don't pretend to understand it all...but see this. http://paste.ubuntu.com/877141/ | 07:27 |
| Halexander9000 | Well... except for drugging. I was forced to try a puff of cigar as a dare at my 18th birthday party with my parents. And I have tried drinking occasionally, but I always end up drunk after two or three cups of the thing. So I can complain about those two. I don't intend to try drugs anytime. If ever. | 07:27 |
| CFHowlett | ok. Hey, starbucks is about to kick me off their couch and out of their house. Don't forget to see the forums: ubuntu studio, ubuntu multimedia. Gotta catch up with you another time .... | 07:29 |
| Halexander9000 | CFHowlett: I'm a dumbass. I typed the commands with quotes... | 07:30 |
| * Halexander9000 face-palms himself. | 07:30 | |
| Halexander9000 | CFHowlett: See ya. Take care. | 07:30 |
| Halexander9000 | ? | 09:18 |
| superdave321 | I "upgraded" to ubuntu studio from vanilla using this article: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Ubuntu%20Studio%20Upgrade%20from%20Ubuntu How can I get the UI back while keeping the apps and plugins? | 17:11 |
| holstein | superdave321: gnome2 is gone | 17:13 |
| holstein | XFCE is what we went to because its arguably the most gnome2 like | 17:13 |
| superdave321 | ok, so how do I get it back? or can I even get it back? | 17:14 |
| holstein | superdave321: gnome2 is gone | 17:14 |
| holstein | ubuntu/cononnical is doing what it always did | 17:14 |
| holstein | provide you/us with the latest version of gnome | 17:15 |
| holstein | which is *not* gnome2 | 17:15 |
| holstein | if you want gnome2, you can run an earlier version of ubuntu | 17:15 |
| Sysi | one doesn't bring things back from dead | 17:15 |
| holstein | you can look into the cinamon, or mate projects | 17:15 |
| holstein | you can build your own version with gnome2 | 17:15 |
| holstein | you can try XFCE, we didnt just throw a dart at a dart board or filp a coin | 17:16 |
| holstein | you can use *any* of the DE's with the ubuntustudio specific pacakges, inculding KDE | 17:16 |
| holstein | i suggest, trying to take some time to explore them live, and see what you like | 17:16 |
| holstein | gnome2 is just going to get further and further obsolete as it gets closer to EOL | 17:17 |
| holstein | personally, im running 10.04, and have been, and i dont plan on moving on til 12.04, where i will use XFCE | 17:17 |
| holstein | gotta run... good luck superdave321 :) | 17:18 |
| tehowe | Cinnamon is pretty good actually, I thought for a while I'd have a hard time deciding twixt it and Unity... but why? I can use either whenever I feel like it just by logging out & back in :) Choice! | 17:19 |
| Sysi | gnome-shell could be my favourite, if it wasn't dependant about pulseaudio | 17:19 |
| Sysi | well, not completely dependant, I could still try | 17:20 |
| tehowe | Which makes me wonder if I can use Cinnamon with Ubustudio 12.04 the same way.. never tried Lubuntu or whatever we're moving to | 17:20 |
