I'm not sure is it intended to be like that or it's disabled by some non-obvious option?

b892353 introduced support for libass, but there is no /usr/share/fonts dir at all so the feature just doesn't work.

jrottenberg/ffmpeg:3.3-alpine image:

/ $ ls -l /usr/share/
total 12
drwxr-xr-x    3 root     root          4096 Jul 30 18:23 ca-certificates

drwxr-xr-x    2 root     root          4096 Jun 25 17:52 misc

Adding ttf-liberation package to the image makes it possible to render subs into video.

Hello!

Please update build ffmpeg to 3.4.2.
thank you. ))

Hi,

Does this container supports hardware acceleration like intel quicksync ?

Would it be possible to create a set of images where FFmpeg is not dynamically linked to its shared libraries? My reasoning is that then you could use docker's multi-stage build process to simply copy the FFmpeg / FFprobe binaries out of this container and into any other container. E.g:

FROM jrottenberg/ffmpeg AS ffmpeg

FROM python

# Copy in FFmpeg and FFprobe
COPY --from=ffmpeg /usr/local/bin/ffmpeg /usr/local/bin/

Currently doing this means calls to FFmpeg give the message

ffmpeg: error while loading shared libraries: libavdevice.so.57: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

It would be a nice alternative to changing the FROM as suggested #90 .

I'm sure this is much more complicated than I am imagining!

I have tried -v "/mnt/user/media/fonts/":"/usr/share/fonts" but I have

Fontconfig error: Cannot load default config file
[Parsed_ass_0 @ 0x82fb60] No usable fontconfig configuration file found, using fallback.
Fontconfig error: Cannot load default config file

I must be missing something - but I cannot seam to get this container to run.

No matter how I try to initiate it with docker it just exits with code 0

Tried :
docker run jrottenberg/ffmpeg
and - docker run --name ffmpeg -d jrottenberg/ffmpeg
and docker-compose.yml with:
ffmpeg:
image: jrottenberg/ffmpeg

Even tried centos and alpine versions.
Here is a screen cap showing the exit code after running docker-compose up and how it continually restarting when using restart: always in my docker-compose.yml

Currently ffmpeg is the only thing in this compose file!

Is this not meant to keep running in the background like it would be if ffmpeg was installed directly to a server outside of docker?

I have docker running on a GCP compute instance running Centos 7 and out of all the active containers this is the only one I can't seam to get working. The VM should have more than enough resources dedicated to it to make it work fine - n1-highmem-4 (4 vCPUs, 26 GB memory) and plenty of hard drive space

Any assistance here would be greatly appreciated!

Thank You..

Thank you for excelent image for ffmpeg.

I want to use -vf ass option to burn ass subtitle.
Please add --enable-libass when exec coufigure command.

best regard.

How can I pipe the generated image from this command to stdout?

-i https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/.../original.mp4 -c:a copy -f mjpeg -preset ultrafast -an -c:v mjpeg -vf \"select='not(mod(n\\,29))',yadif,scale=480:-1,crop=iw:270,tile=1x50\" -q:v 20 -vframes 1

Hi!

Please consider using the stable branch of x264?

Thanks,

While streaming to an FB rtmp for FB live my stream gets randomly interrupted after a while with a connection reset by peer.

Probably not the image's fault but a network issue and just was curious to see that no-one reported the issue. There might be a workaround possible with the image I am not sure yet.

I need to use ffprobe to get the total frames before I use ffmpeg. Is this command available through you image?

For example, I'm trying to reduce downloaded size, so I'll always want the alpine based image. Currently, to download the latest alpine based image, I have to pull jrottenberg/ffmpeg:3.4-alpine. I'll have to keep track of new releases and update the image tag. I'd much prefer being able to pull jrottenberg/ffmpeg:latest-alpine or just jrottenberg/ffmpeg:alpine to be always working with the latest alpine based image.

Fribidi won't compile anymore. Package can't be downloaded. Changed the url to:

https://github.com/fribidi/fribidi/archive/${FRIBIDI_VERSION}.tar.gz

and modified the parameters, but then it complains that it can't find configure.

It would be really handy if, when compiling ffmpeg, its (development) headers could be copied.

This would allow the easier compilation of applications that link against ffmpeg.

Do you know why?

I don't know what difference this makes in practice, but please consider building this image for speed instead of size?

--enable-small optimize for size instead of speed

Thanks!

any chance to include ndi support for future releases? it's getting attention now it's out and it's very useful for live transcoding and related tasks.

I'm trying to start this container using Docker remote API but the stream seems to be invalid. I think that this has nothing to do with this Docker image but I'm reaching here :)

I'm trying to stream to input using -i pipe:0 and then stream the output via pipe:1 but this is what ffmpeg tells me in the logs:

In 3.3 Ubuntu image.

I have a m3u8 playlist with corresponding .ts files that have been recorded with ffmpeg on my Mac.
The codec is aac.

In the docker image, when I try to mux the m3u8 and .ts into a standalone .aac, ffmpeg is stuck on the first segment:

ffmpeg -i index.m3u8 test.aac

[hls,applehttp @ 0x1bdfec0] Opening 'index0.ts' for reading <- never process.

I try to build and it fails at step 20. I am on ubuntu 16.04.

First, thank you very much for putting this together and sharing it.

Second, I have a question on how I can use your library with another library, FEniCS:

https://fenics.readthedocs.io/projects/containers/en/latest/jupyter.html

The above link shows how to start jupyter notebooks and I am learning to embed movies but this needs ffmpeg. When I try running my code it doesn't work because it can't find ffmpeg. Is there a way to get my fenics docker to use my ffmpeg docker?

docker logs -tf xxx does not show ffmpeg status
if docker runs in daemon mode
like
frame= 450 fps= 73 q=-1.0 Lsize= 6562kB time=00:00:17.91 bitrate=3000.1kbits/s speed=2.91x
any idea how this can be fixed?

See: https://ffmpeg.org/general.html#OpenCORE-AMR
OpenCORE AMR and VisualOn AMR-WB encoder library can be used for encoding amr audio.

@jrottenberg Are you open to a PR introducing the libspeex codec?

If so, I'd be happy to submit the PR!

Thank you for the repo!

Thanks,
Dragos

Tool ffprobe is important in ffmpeg which probe media file information and is useful. I found that ffprobe wasn't in current docker image. I'm wondering that whether it can be added in? Thanks.

has anyone attempted to get this to build on ARM64? I don't want to spend hours just find out something is blocking.

It might not actually make a difference in your setup, as you are clearing caches in your last line anyways, but there is the apk add --no-cache switch, which you could use to prevent caches from being created in the first place.

Great work!
My best regards,
Markus

Have a command like:

docker run jrottenberg/ffmpeg -stats -i http://url/file.mp4 -b 640k -c:v libx264 -profile:v high -preset medium -f mp4 - > /tmp/out.mp4

On output i have:

Could not write header for output file #0 (incorrect codec parameters ?): Invalid argument
[libx264 @ 0x2ef8b20] final ratefactor: 24.75
[aac @ 0x2e65f80] Qavg: -nan

You have not encountered a similar problem for the mp4 container?
i found http://superuser.com/questions/760056/receiving-ffmpeg-error-22-when-piping-data-to-stdout

Current behaviour:

# docker run -it --entrypoint=/bin/sh jrottenberg/ffmpeg:3.4
# ffprobe -v error -show_streams test.mp4 | grep profile
profile=1
profile=578

Expected behaviour: (ffmpeg 3.4 installed on alpine, macOS, and Ubuntu)

# ffprobe -show_streams -v error test.mp4 | grep profile
profile=LC
profile=Constrained Baseline

As this container is only meant to run ffmpeg and its other programs, I believe shared libs do not really make a lot of sense here. I would like to suggest to build the binaries statically.

As Docker now allows for multistage builds, this would come in very handy, if one would like to use the result of your great build in another container. This can now be done as follows:

FROM jrottenberg/ffmpeg:3.3-alpine as ffmpeg

FROM node:alpine
COPY --from=ffmpeg /usr/local/bin/ff* /usr/local/bin/

Since ff* binaries are not compiled with static linking however, this becomes a lot more complicated.

I use this command with jrottenberg/ffmpeg:3.3-alpine which works fine but using the 4.0 release does not produce any output?

docker run jrottenberg/ffmpeg:4.0-alpine -stats -i http://techslides.com/demos/sample-videos/small.mp4 -f mjpeg -vf select='not(mod(n\,3))',yadif,scale=480:-1,crop=iw:270,tile=1x50 -q:v 5 -vframes 1 - > scrub.jpg

This works:

sd run -it -rm -v $(pwd):/v jrottenberg/ffmpeg -i /v/video.mp4 -movflags faststart /v/video.webm

This does not work:

sd run -it -rm -v $(pwd):/v jrottenberg/ffmpeg -i /v/video.mp4 -movflags faststart /v/video.ogg

Error:

How do I encode to OGG Theora?

Hello. I am running a Homebridge Docker image and I need for it to be able to use ffmpeg. So inside the other dockerfile can I copy and paste the run code? I am fairly new to Docker , will having it install and compile for Ubuntu work in every use case scenario without having to worry about the host os that has Docker installed on it? Or is there someway for docker to pick up the host os and install the correct version of ffmpeg? Or is there some way to pull the package that is already built since this takes a long time to build?

My company uses docker for developer VMs, and one of these extends FROM jrottenberg/ffmpeg:2.7. Today I noticed that the 2.7 tag is no longer available on docker hub. Do you know why that is? Was it removed by you, or does docker hub have an automatic expiration on old tags?

Thanks!
