#FFMPEG CROP FILTER VARIABLES INSTALL#
Installing FFmpeg in Ubuntuįfmpeg does not come pre-installed in Ubuntu by default, so you will first have to install this program to use it.
The tasks that can be performed with the aid of ffmpeg include audio file conversion, video file conversion, photo conversion, image file extraction from video files, generating videos from image files, extracting audio from video, cropping videos and photos, trimming videos, re-sizing videos, boosting volume, and creating screen recordings.
#FFMPEG CROP FILTER VARIABLES CODE#
There are obviously expensive tools out there that one can buy to fulfill one’s needs, but what if we could do this for free? What if a few lines of code could do almost any video-related task that you require?įfmpeg is a free and open-source video conversion, extraction, and editing tool that provides an answer to this question! What can ffmpeg not do? Almost nothing. It has become so common, in fact, that creating and editing audio and video files have become the new normal in the span of only a few decades. For this, you can resort to something like: ffmpeg -i example-video.mp4 -filter:v ' cropw:h:x:y ' output-crop.mp4. ZM would unaware that you had tampered with the stream.In the modern world, with YouTube and other social media apps as the mainstream way to view digital media, uploading videos has become a common practice. It is also possible to crop only the image inside the video and not the whole video. In FFmpeg, there is a video area clipping filter: crop. I don't know if that would help your situation or not, but I recall having to do something similar before when something wouldn't play niceĪlternatively, maybe you could look at using something like ffserver to create a second virtual camera from your real camera, so: taking the stream from the camera into ffmpeg yourself, processing it, then making the output available via ffserver so that ZM can see it.

If you want another way to force parameters into ffmpeg, you could try creating a shell script, called "myffmpeg" which exists only to call the real ffmpeg, forcing in your parameters, and then passing on "everything else" from ZM - then tell ZM the path to your fake ffmpeg. Or did you intend to cut a 640x480 box out of the source video, positioned 1000 across and 740 down. Is that really what you meant? It's an unusual video size and aspect ratio, hence my question. To crop 200 pixels from the input video height ( ih ), meaning to crop 100 pixels from the top and 100 pixels from the bottom, and crop 100 pixels from the input video width ( iw ), meaning to crop 50 pixels from the left and 50 pixels from the right: ffmpeg -i input.mp4 filter:v 'cropiw-100:ih-200' output.mp4. Your command line seems to cut a 1000x740 box out of the source video, positioned 640 along and 480 down. Sabretoothedhamster wrote: ↑ Mon 10:56 am
I do have zm 1.34.15 running on Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTSĥM RTSP camera configured as ffmpeg/modect source using rtsp:// URL, TCP stream and x264 Encode video writer. I even tried to put my custom script into Options->Images->PATH_FFMPEG to dump real option strings passed to ffmpeg by zm, and run snoopy in background to trace every process run in the system, but found that zoneminder ignores that PATH_FFMPEG options and does not run ffmpeg process at all(!).Ĭould anyone give me a hint how can i crop the source video stream (before processing by zm)? The ff tools have a -bsf option applied per stream, taking a comma-separated list of filters, whose parameters follow the filter name after a. However, any attempt to put into zm camera setup -> Source -> Options anything like that ('filter:v crop=1000:740:640:480' or 'filter:v=crop=1000:740:640:480' 'filter:v,crop=1000:740:640:480', or 'fv="crop=1000:740:640:480"' ) results in errors like 'Option filter:v crop not recognized by ffmpeg'. The option '-bsfs' of the ff tools will display the list of all the supported bitstream filters included in your build. The ffmpeg binary itself takes option like '-filter:v crop=1000:740:640:480' perfectly. Improper use of some filters might also cause the preview function to fail. Yet I feel that with wider availability of cheap highres cameras (without variable zoom optics) such an option could be really helpful. FFQueue is a FREE and comprehensive GUI for the FFMpeg command line encoder. May I draw your attention to a topic from the past: viewtopic.php?p=101031 ? My attempt to google the theme resulted in a conclusion that it raised several times but had not been solved.
