Adding srt support in php for mencoder

[Neo]

Can you try this one with -newsubtitle at the end of line.

Code: Select all

$cmd = 'ffmpeg -i '.$in.' -acodec libfaac -ab 128k -ac 2 -vcodec libx264 -vpre hq -crf 22 -threads 2 '.$out_vid.' -newsubtitle '.$in_sub;

little change now creates file.mkv but no encoding taking place

file has zero size so no encoding going on. evil ffmpeg ! doc not help much even on ffmpeg website

Please ignore my last post about adding newsubtitle to the end. x264 has mp4 extension, but I don't think that makes any difference. It seems there are issues in using subtitles in ffmpeg. However I think proper flags must get it working (the problem is it will take quite a lot of time to identify the combination).

exactly why ffmpeg documentation is bad they have little section for subtitle but

http://ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg-doc.html#SEC13

section 3.7 Subtitle options:

they have not update that part since ffmpeg was probably developed its a shame !! that mencoder can not output compatible mp4 files so they can be used on flash player

i'm going to check other methods using other tools, like vlc avidemux2 has cli and few others i think

[Neo]

See whether x264.exe can help you to convert. I used this ones quite a long time ago and it worked perfectly. I not sure about the options you require like subtitles so please check it.

Also, check whether you use the latest ffmpeg.exe. Compare with ffmpeg command line options at https://robot.lk/viewtopic.php?f=39&t=1143. Files are also attached for you.

i've built the ffmpeg directly from svn i think from ubuntu forum link http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=786095 i followed the hardy 8.04 version since my vps is based on that version as for x264.exe don't see that -- subtitle option under its list of features maybe need to look again. but

after look more into it, now i know why the subtitles support is bad in ffmpeg the developers didn't mess around with it just look at the changes they made !

from version 0.3: initial public release to version 0.5 nothing about subtitles that is crazy !

hi neo, after looking for a method to my problem with mencoders mp4 output not compatible with flash player, i've read i could use MP4box

To create the interleaving metadata (which will allow for mid stream resumes, and rewinds/fforwards),

could i use the $file_output after encoding has completed to pass through MP4box to fix the issue on the original srt avi encoding code ?

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install gpac

and then the command to run MP4Box was:

Code: Select all

MP4Box -add ‘filename.mp4? ‘newfilename.mp4?

could this be done within the script ? or do i need to make new one and fire the mp4box script after encoding has taken place ?

[Mysoogal]

sorry , discharge comment above thank you



mp4box is not what im looking for
