# cropping mp4 video in ffmpeg. | |
# | |
# this does require a re-encode but the following process created video | |
# half the size with no perceptible change in quality. audio is unaffected. | |
# detect area to crop | |
ffplay -i show.mp4 -vf "cropdetect=24:16:0" | |
# crop to 944x720, x-offset=170, y-offset=0 (removing vertical black bars) | |
ffmpeg -i show.mp4 -vf "crop=944:720:170:0" show_cropped.mp4 | |
# do that in a loop for five shows | |
for i in $(seq 1 5); do ffmpeg -i show_10${i}.mp4 -vf "crop=944:720:170:0" show_10${i}_cropped.mp4; done | |
# NOTE: "-strict -2" may be necessary depending on your ffmpeg's codec support. |

Translates MP4-encoded FLVs to native MP4 and then concatenates | |
them. It is up to the encoder to ensure that the original FLVs | |
actually contain MP4. Expects ffmpeg to be installed. No python | |
requirements. | |
Usage: | |
python flv2mp4.py --output ../show.mp4 *.flv | |
Relevant commands for easy reference: | |
# switches from an FLV container to a native MP4 container without reencoding | |
ffmpeg -i show_1.flv -codec show_1.mp4 | |
# concatenates the mp4s listed in file_list.txt without reencoding. | |
ffmpeg -f concat -i file_list.txt -c copy show_joined.mp4 | |
