Is it possible with CinGG's Record utility (via FFMPEG) to
record a stream to file segments of same duration or file size
and use auto-naming?
Typical example:
Record a video/audio input stream (i.e from playing a
camcorder tape cassette) and encode to output file segments of
10 minutes or 10 GB each and auto-name file numbers.
Similar example code using an input file instead at
https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/1670/how-can-i-use-ffmpeg-to-split-mpeg-video-into-10-minute-chunks
Just use what is built into ffmpeg to do exactly this.
|ffmpeg -i invid.mp4 -threads 3 \ -vcodec copy *-f segment
-segment_time 10:00 \ -reset_timestamps 1 \
cam_out_h264_%02d.mp4* |
This will split it into roughly 10-minute chunks, split at the
relevant keyframes, and will output to the files
*|cam_out_h264_01.mp4|, |cam_out_h264_02.mp4|*, etc.
Very interesting question! Never tried this, did not even know it
existed!
As long as this -f just ordinary avformat muxer you probably can
copy your favourite ffmpeg video/audio profiles with new .seg name
and put "segmented" at very first line there , where "mov" or
"matroska" or other format name was, and add rest of options. And
add pattern (%02d) into name just as with ffmpeg-based image lists.
I'll try this with termux's version, but I do not have audio here
so it will be incomplete.
so I created this file:
cat ffmpeg/video/mpeg2.seg
segment mpeg2video
segment_format=mpeg
segment_time=00:10
reset_timestamps=1
trellis=2
mbd=rd
cmp=2
subcmp=2
b=4000000
and it worked! in sense it created six segments, each with
corresponding increasing timecode. But they all uneven duration,
probably due to mpeg2 codec placing keyframes at will.
You can try to modify it back to 10:00 segment time and see how it
work for longer encode?
As I'm not sure if and how you applied your file above with regards to
Cingg Record,
I simply did a test with my system's ffmpeg segment muxer:

Input file: hdv09_04_h264.mp4

Tried 1 minute segment time:

-vcodec copy -f segment -segment_time 01:00 \
-reset_timestamps 1 \

In total: 00:03:58.93 which is 00:00:00.03 (=3/100 sek) more than
the input file
which I think is good enough for practical purposes (editing and
backup/preservation/archival)
I wonder if it is within or out of our reach to make some targeted
profiles for backup/preservation?
I.e would it be of interest and possible to utilize/integrate/use oss
tools and scripts as found here:

The programs dvgrab and possibly the newer vrecord can also autosplit by
scenes
