Took me several weeks to figure that out that this meant the glibc.mo and not a /usr/lib/locale/default link to a directory ...

I hope i have not fogotten anything .
This has brought me to the idea of adding
libc.mo to
next langpack_de
Thank you, Karl.

I guess those error messages are caused by lacking /usr/lib/locale/${LANG} contents or illegal LANG value, never mean the
glibc.mo.

Hi shinobar; I didn`t read the whole forum thread as it`s quite long.
Does ffconvert do ffmpeg x264 with the quality setting and single pass?
This is the best all around method, fast one pass and easy to set quality.
I`ve been using Handbrake, but it`s far more complex than is needed.
I tried the old ffconvert and it didn`t work, but I hope the new one does.

Depends on the ffmpeg and the Puppy version.
What Puppy are you using?

It was maybe a year ago I tried ffconvert, not really that important.
Now I use Puppy-528-005 Lucid with Handbrake.
But Handbrake is more complex than is needed.
###
Just need audio stream selection, video and audio output format, and a few other options.
Perhaps this is in some of the preset files that ffconvert can use?
###
Q: Does ffconvert do x264 "quality based" encoding?
OR, are you planning on adding that to it?

Crrent: ffconvert-1.3.pet (2012-06-17)
http://shino.pos.to/linux/puppy/
You need not upgrade if you are content with the v.1.2.9.
# v1.2.9 - 26 May 2012: x11grab, mkplaylist, notebook, preset group
# v1.3 - 17 Jun 2012: upport avconv, fix unsupported codec error message, gtkdialog to avoid yaf-splash incompatibility, vcd for the default
isync

Try '-isync' as the advanced options if you encounter no sync with the video and audio when grabing X by the ffconvert 2.9.1 and later.

Screen capture on Wary/Racy-5.3, Puppy-4.x
Posted: Tue 24 Jul 2012, 05:57
by shinobar
FFConvert-1.3 supports screen capture. But you need to upgrade ffmpeg for Wary/Racy-5.3 or Puppy-4.x.
For Wary/Racy-5.3, install
FFmpeg-0.8.12 to enable screen capture.
For Puppy-4.x, install
ffmpeg-0.7.6.
You need not upgrade ffmpeg for slacko, dpup and most of Pupplet-5.x.
For the lucid puppy, the Pmusic Upgrade 005 is recommended.
[TIPS] CAPTURE_SOUND
Posted: Fri 03 Aug 2012, 00:05
by shinobar
TIPS:
ffconvert-1.3 has additional options in /usr/bin/ffconvert at line 80:
CAPTURE_SOUND="hw:0,0"
It specifies the sound device associates the screen capture.
"hw:0,0" means card 0, device 0.
You can edit the value by a text editor.
To see the available hardware, type the command '
arecord -l':
Code: Select all
# arecord -l
**** List of CAPTURE Hardware Devices ****
card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 0: ALC1200 Analog [ALC1200 Analog]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 1: ALC1200 Digital [ALC1200 Digital]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 2: ALC1200 Analog [ALC1200 Analog]
Subdevices: 1/1
Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
The mixer setting can be tested by the recording feature of the mhWaveEdit.

"hw:0,1" is the line-in port for my desktop computer when recording audio.
Audacity's preferences is a good way to understand what
your audio ports are named by system

Thanks for this Shinobar. I think I know what to do now (to get my USB headset working!)

Hi shinobar,
I'm using the latest FFconvert on Akita...
Code: Select all
FFmpeg version SVN-r25158-snapshot, Copyright (c) 2000-2010 the FFmpeg developers
built on Aug 15 2012 23:04:19 with gcc 4.3.4
I get errors when trying to screen capture, with the ALSA option
hw:0,0
To fix this, I must change the option to
plughw:0,0
Can this be auto detected and done for users by ffconvert?
Also, I get errors about a missing -r option ... Each time this happens the -r 29.97 option has many spaces before it (not only 1), and it is separated from the -f 1024x768 option...
I can fix the errors about the missing -r option, if I move the -r option immediately after -f 1024x768 , and remove all double/triple spaces from the ffmpeg command....
Example:
From FFconvert (doesn't work):
Code: Select all
/usr/bin/ffmpeg -f alsa -i hw:0,0 -f x11grab -s 1024x768 -i :0.0 -t 60 -y -f avi -vcodec msmpeg4 -b 1000k -s 640x480 -aspect 4:3 -r 25 -acodec pcm_s16le -ab 160k -ar 44100 -ac 2 "/root/Desktop/x11grab.avi"
the above gives:
Code: Select all
[x11grab @ 0x8080890] AVParameters don't have video size and/or rate. Use -s and -r.
:0.0: Input/output error
Edited, moved -r option and extra spaces (still doesn't work):
Code: Select all
/usr/bin/ffmpeg -f alsa -i hw:0,0 -f x11grab -s 1024x768 -r 25 -i :0.0 -t 60 -y -f avi -vcodec msmpeg4 -b 1000k -s 640x480 -aspect 4:3 -acodec pcm_s16le -ab 160k -ar 44100 -ac 2 "/root/Desktop/x11grab.avi"
the above gives
Code: Select all
[alsa @ 0x8076470] cannot set channel count to 1 (Invalid argument)
hw:0,0: Input/output error
Edited again, using plughw (works):
Code: Select all
/usr/bin/ffmpeg -f alsa -i plughw:0,0 -f x11grab -s 1024x768 -r 25 -i :0.0 -t 60 -y -f avi -vcodec msmpeg4 -b 1000k -s 640x480 -aspect 4:3 -acodec pcm_s16le -ab 160k -ar 44100 -ac 2 "/root/Desktop/x11grab.avi"
I hope you can fix these issues, so that I don't need to manually edit the command in a text editor, then paste back in to a terminal...

I am aware of the issue of the x11grab command options with older versions of FFmpeg.

I didn't know the case of plughw:.
Thanks sc0ttman for the how to.
Next version of FFConvert will have more compatibility with the x11grab function. Wait a while...
I can't get this to work

Am I missing something really obvious here? I cannot for the life of me to get anything to come out of this program.
I have lucid puppy 5.28 which is my main PC. I have tried also using this on Barry's latest Precise, and Fluppy. All 3 different puppies yield the same results.
I am trying to use it to convert the .avi video files from my camera, which are encoded in a very large mjpeg codec to something more space efficient, ideally AVC.
I get errors. Only errors. If i use avc, ie mp4 preset, with MP4 MPEG4-AVC, it tells me that my ffmpeg does not support the codec libx264 nor libfaac.
If I use a different preset, or a codec that I choose, I get this error output:
Code: Select all
Sun Sep 16 23:11:15 EST 2012
Processing /mnt/sda1/tkd1/Demos/15September2012/MVI_0498.AVI...
Duration: 00:04:04.23, start: 0.000000, bitrate: 16260 kb/s
Stream #0.1 -> #0.1
Press [q] to stop encoding
/usr/bin/ffmpeg: relocation error: /usr/bin/ffmpeg: symbol frame_hook_process, version LIBAVFORMAT_52 not defined in file libavformat.so.52 with link time reference
Any help with getting this to work would be appreciated.
edit: it works in saluki 21 which is good, but would like it to work in lupu as I use it mostly

Hi Shinobar,
Thanks for your reply. I had tried upgrading pmusic, as I saw earlier you recommended this. I was pretty tired, so didn't think to look in the lucid thread for it, I only searched the pmusic thread. I will try downloading this tonight and let you know the results.
For anyone else with the same issue, this is the link here:

FFCONVERT and audio stream

I'm loving FFConvert but am having an issue with a vob converting to mp4. It is using the wrong audio track in the conversion. Can someone explain how to choose the correct audio track? I have tried to use -map in the audio adv. options and it doesn't work.
Thanks
