 |
|
Download the script (avi2mp4.sh) for MP4 conversion from Doom9.
Hi there,
it took me a while to figure out how to encode compatible high resolution (640:480 and the like) files for the iPod Video. In the end it turned out that there's not much to it, really. Here's how to encode videos following the iPod specs. Works for 5G and 5.5G iPods. They need to run a recent firmware, though.
Essential software:
- mencoder with x264 support
- normalize
- faac
- gpac (at least version 0.4.4, older releases screw up the tags)
Howto:
Encode the video. The following options are mandatory:
| Code: | | nocabac:vbv_maxrate=1500:vbv_bufsize=244:level_idc=30 |
The iPods can't handle CABAC which is turned on by the codec by default. Other things not supported by the iPods (8x8dct, b frames) are disabled in the codecs default settings so we don't have to worry about them. The iPod spec sheet says it can only handle up to 1500 kbit/s (for the video part), that's what vbv_maxrate is for. vbv_bufsize is the size over which vbv_maxrate is calculated. We need to set the proper AVC level (level_idc=30) as well.
Note: Maybe vbv_maxrate/vbv_bufsize are not necessary. Maybe keeping the bitrate equal or below 1500 kbit/s is enough. If you try without vbv_maxrate/vbv_bufsize and experience ill behavior during playback please tell us about it.
Anything else is pretty much up to you. Check out the on-line docs of mencoder: Link
Hints: You need progressive video frames and also the iPod can't scale the video's aspect ratio on playback so you have to take care of that while encoding.
Example:
Here's what I used. The x264 settings are the ones suggested by the mencoder docs for high quality x264 encoding with a few adjustments to make it acceptable for iPod's:
| Code: | mencoder dvd:// -oac copy -ovc x264 -vf crop=704:360:12:56,scale=640:-10,harddup -ofps 24000/1001 -x264encopts \ pass=1:bitrate=800:nocabac:vbv_maxrate=1500:vbv_bufsize=244:level_idc=30:frameref=2:subq=5:turbo=1:threads=auto -o /dev/null
mencoder dvd:// -oac copy -ovc x264 -vf crop=704:360:12:56,scale=640:-10,harddup -ofps 24000/1001 -x264encopts \ pass=2:bitrate=800:nocabac:vbv_maxrate=1500:vbv_bufsize=244:level_idc=30:frameref=2:subq=5:turbo=1:threads=auto -o movie.avi
|
Hint: In case your source is interlaced (really interlaced, not telecined!) there's a chance you can get around deinterlacing by using the "field" parameter (-vf field=0,...). What happens when one uses field=0 on interlaced video is that only the first field (out of two per frame) is regarded. Practically this results in the division by two of the vertical resolution. So for instance instead of 576 pixels you get 288, instead of 480 you get 240. That's just fine in case you go for a final resolution of the encoded file that's smaller than that (or equal to it).
Now let's extract the audio to WAVE and afterwards normalize it:
| Code: | mplayer -vc null -vo null -ao pcm:fast movie.avi
normalize audiodump.wav |
Next we encode the WAVE to VBR AAC-LC (make sure you follow the example and use the .m4a extension). iPod spec says it can handle audio up to 160 kbit/s. -q 80 usually results in 120 kbit/s so that should take care of things:
| Code: | | faac -o audiodump.m4a -q 80 audiodump.wav |
Next: Extract the raw x264 bitstream from the video:
| Code: | | MP4Box -aviraw video movie.avi |
Then we mux the AAC audio and the x264 video data into a shiny new MP4 container and also tag it while we're at it (otherwise the iPod will display an empty line; the file will be playable, though.)
(Hint: You need to specify the real frame rate of the video, otherwise MP4Box assumes 25 fps.)
(WARNING: MP4Box creates temporary files and defaults to the /tmp directory for that. In case the temporary files exceed the space in the directory MP4Box will _not_ throw an error message. It will continue and leave you with a broken file, wondering what the hell just happened. Took me a good part of an afternoon to figure that out. Guess it's time for a bug report. Anyway, you can specify an alternative directory with the -tmp switch.)
| Code: | | MP4Box -itags name="NAME OF THE MOVIE" -new -add audiodump.m4a -add movie_video.h264:fps=23.976 movie.mp4 |
Finally you could tell MP4Box to rewrite some stuff to make the file iTunes compatible. I haven't tested if this is really necessary or if the file really works with iTunes. If you don't use iTunes don't do it. Or maybe nowadays iTunes doesn't need it anymore - then don't do it either.
| Code: | | MP4Box -ipod movie.mp4 |
But wait, we still have to put the file on the iPod. I use amarok and media-libs/libgpod-0.6.0 for that. Works like a charm.
I hope this is helpful to some!
Regards

How do you deal with it if input is a file.avi, rather than a dvd?
Thanks!

Exactly the same, basically. Except that you don't use dvd:// but instead simply the filename. Any cropping and scaling may be unnecessary.
I'm thinking about writing a shell script to convert AVI files to mp4 for iPods. I know there are already scripts for that, but I haven't found one that scales down to a set bits per pixel value at a given bitrate (which is what I'm after). But until now I didn't find the drive. |

Great!
One more question - can your script convert .iso files, or do those have to be ripped first?
Thanks again!

I added the script to the first post. It can handle AVI files, nothing else. |

Hi!
avi2mp4.sh v1.0.6 can handle any file type, AVI restriction is gone. I don't know about ISO images. My guess is if mplayer is able to handle those then avi2mp4.sh should be able to as well.

Meaning the transfer works but the iPod doesn't play the movie or meaning the transfer doesn't work? How do you transfer the file? Did you read the comments within the script regarding iTunes? |

| Code: | 1.0.9: - In case aspect ratio is not set simply assume Width:Height
- Add -endpos .1 to myidentify to prevent playback of audio
files; thanks to Reimar Doeffinger for the tip
- Check $VFOPTS for cropping; if detected calculate new aspect
ratio so we get a proper output resolution
1.1.0: - Remove bogus comma from sed call (BASENAME="...")
- Remove redundant scale command from bc call
- Check for (and prevent) upscaling of video
- Lower the bitrate with regards to BPP
- Move crop detection around
- Update crop detection for special cases w=0 and h=0; this
also fixes a potential division by zero
- Update comments
- Add CH and CW to function c so both get unset
- Dimension -> Resolution
- Display $CW x $CH as resolution if available
- Make sure ID_VIDEO_WIDTH, ID_VIDEO_HEIGHT, ID_VIDEO_FPS and
ID_AUDIO_NCH aren't negative
- Fix the for loop that looks at output resolutions
1.1.1: - Fix behaviour when supplied cropping values are bogus
1.1.2: - Another attempt to correct the behaviour in case of bogus
crop values; only accept numbers and let mencoder do the
dying
- Change loop expression in c-style for-loop once more just for
correctness' sake |

Please update your requirements. You forgot to mention that aacgain needs to be installed.

Hi!
Yeah it's a little confusing. In the "HowTo" I wrote about using normalize to level the audio and in the script I use aacgain. Sorry for that. In the script aacgain is already mentioned as a requirement, though, see the comments.

I found the script to be quite useful and works quite well.
My only problem is that occasionally, something goes wrong with extracting the audio and a step fails with a missing file.
I have not looked too closely at this just yet and have not figured out the common factor, but if I do, I will let you know.

Hi lyallp!
Please check what step fails exactly. Is it mplayer? Or is is MP4Box? In case of MP4Box try this. Emerge it without any "-OX" option in your CFLAGS. E.g.
| Code: |
CFLAGS="-march=k8 -msse3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer" |
instead of
| Code: |
CFLAGS="-march=k8 -msse3 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer -O2" |
I filed a bug already
Regards

The problem seems to be in mplayer.
Investigation continues, but it appears that the Output PCM filename, in the extract stage, is truncated at the comma. The resulting output is...
[/code]
==========================================================================
Opening audio decoder: [mp3lib] MPEG layer-2, layer-3
AUDIO: 48000 Hz, 2 ch, s16le, 128.0 kbit/8.33% (ratio: 16000->192000)
Selected audio codec: [mp3] afm: mp3lib (mp3lib MPEG layer-2, layer-3)
==========================================================================
[AO PCM] File: /tmp/MovieNameUpTillComma (WAVE)
I am thinking that we should create our temporary names using, say, "avi2mp4_$$.avi", or maybe filter the filenames for things like commas, colons, etc, so mplayer does not get confused.
FYI: I have tweaked my copy of the script, I am happy to email it to the author.

Changes included in my copy of the script include (noted in the mod log) in the copy sent to the author (for those that are interested).
1. Temporary files (that are used by mplayer) use Process ID as their name, not the original source file - the reason is mplayer, during audio extract, would truncate the filename at a comma (if there was one), resulting in 'no file found' failures.
2. Continue processing other files if one fails - particularly handy if converting lots of files and you come back next day and find it failed on the second.
3. Hard coded the iPod Nano screen size into the conversion (the Nano can take up up to 640x480 but it's screen size is 340x240 - meaning any video file with a larger size is wasted - this makes for smaller video files
I found this script to be really useful and am extremely grateful to the author for making it available.
(well, I am extremely grateful to all open source authors)
Thank you

I wonder if you would able to add a switch to enable video encoding with mpeg4, the reason being that although this script produces great quality video it's extremely slow. Usually this is not a big problem, but it is a bit overkill for converting .flv's from youtube for example. at the moment I just use another clunky script i made for lower quality vids (which basically does this:ffmpeg -i $filein -f mp4 -vcodec mpeg4 -maxrate 1000k -b 600k -qmin 3 -qmax 5 -bufsize 1048576 -g 300 -acodec libfaac -ar 44100 -ab 128k $newname.mp4), but since i am not that great at scripting it has all kinds of problems (doesn't correctly process certain filenames etc.) and i really like the audio normalization your script uses.
anyway, i'd be very gratefull if you would consider adding a switch like this. |

What I am trying to find out how to do now is how to get gpac to write the appropriate tags for converted movies.
I found in the MP4Box changelog. | Code: |
Tagging can be done with MP4Box -itags option. The tags are passed in a single string, separated by ':', formatted as 'tag_name=tag_value'. Supported tags names are: album, artist, comment, compilation, composer, created, disk, encoder, genre, name, tempo, track, tracknum, writer.
|
This does not include the tags that iTunes seems to use for Movie/TV Show/Podcast.
Also, I name my videos 'SxxExx - title - series name' which is not useful on the iPod as different shows blend together in a horrible mess (since it does not appear to support directories), hence I think I will be using the -'itags "name=series name - SxxExx - title"'
Further experimentation on this is required

I received your mail, thank you! At the moment I'm moving so I'm a little caught up. I'll take a look when I get around to it.

Hi all,
new version of the script released (see link to doom9 forum thread in top post):
| Code: | 1.1.4: - Add possiblity to set maximum output resolution, thanks to
L. Pearce for the idea; see comments regarding $MAX_RES
- Changed comments regarding MP4Box crashes (added suggestion
for real workaround) |

hey!
thanks for the script it works well.
but there are 2 problems i couldn't solve:
Problem 1:
i tried to convert .ts files, which are tv recordings. this works. since there is mostly junk in the beginning and junk at the end i have to trim the files after conversion. there is the problem.
e.g.
| Code: | | mencoder -ovc copy -oac copy -ss 00:03:30 -endpos 01:40:32 myfile.mp4 -o myfile_cut.mp4 |
gives problem with the audio.
the video seems fine, but whenever i jump in the video the audio starts at the beginning of the whole file.
any clues what this might be?
Problem 2:
sometimes the tv stations send the movies in two languages. this works fine to watch and change language in mplayer by pressing shift+3 (#). but i cann't select the audio in the command line. neither in mplayer nor in mencoder or the MENCODER_OPTS. where can i find out about which audio streams are available? i did try to read something out of the -v option but that didn't help.
here is an example of the output of a file:

maybe you could see how to access these audiostreams from the commandline.
i did try:
but that didn't work at all
did work but it seems the stream sets the name for all languages the same. (deu). so mencoder|mplayer selects the first stream that matches. is there a way to force some stream?
i'm clueless.
thanks for any hints |

Hi,
problem 1 seems to be related to remuxing the file with mplayer (mp4 muxing in mplayer is apparently still buggy). And 2 seems related to the file being a ts file. Here's what I would try. I'd just use an application (for instance vdrsync or PVAStrumento (runs in Wine) to convert the transport stream into a program stream and at the same time I'd cut the file (get rid of advertising etc.). There's also ProjectX (Java) which should definitely work.
Yeah, I'd probably end up using ProjectX to convert and cut (shouldn't take more than a few minutes) and afterwards run avi2mp4.sh on the resulting file. You should be able to choose the audio track you want in ProjectX as well.
Good luck, shouldn't be too tough to figure out
