Hi @mrbar42. Thank you for great script! Why resolution is 842x480 but by standard it is 854x480? from here https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/6375112?co=GENIE.Platform%3DDesktop&hl=en
There are many iterations of 480p; use the one relevant to your most prevalent client device.

Thanks for the script. But when I run this, here's my error message.

[aac @ 0x55a878ba8e40] 2 frames left in the queue on closingdid you solve this? I have the same error
I change L:35 to awk
key_frames_interval="$(awk "BEGIN { rounded = sprintf(\"%.0f\", ${key_frames_interval}); print rounded }")"
check this single comment multi output => https://github.com/masterofthesith/ffmpeg
How about having differntial segments accoding to the duration of the original video. For example, having shorter segments for the first 10% duration of video and then longer segments for the rest 90%?
I was looking for a code to convert video files in a directory where it has multiple subfolders for each video file. I want to run a batch code so it can convert the video files and save them where the original file was there.
Example:
: tree movies/
movies/
├── subfolder1
│ └── movie1.mp4
├── subfolder2
│ └── movie2.mp4
└── subfolder3
└── movie3.mp4
And so on.
I want the output to be the same as my main structure but in .m3u8 format.
I have used a code where it can convert each movie manually but for some reason, I can use the .m3u8 file or link only in that server I can't make it work all over the internet.
for i in .mp4; do
ffmpeg -i "$i" -c copy -map 0 -hls_time 3 -hls_list_size 0 -f hls "${i%.}.hls"
done
Thanks
@DravitLochan i am also thinking like you to initial hls video size size is small like first few are divided in 2 sec chunk and then after 10 sec we make it to 5 sec chunk.
so have you achieved this solution ?
so something we can do 5 chunk are in increasing order like 1s,2s,3s,4s,5s and then all remain are 5s/10sec chunk
Isn't it easier to create a master playlist file using FFMPEG itself?
Using -master_pl_name param
Great script to get started, doesn't play in Safari though, might be the codec this script is using.
