HI all,
I am using NSTask to wrap ffmpeg, the video conversion utility.
I am able to invoke ffmpeg alright, but it’s unclear how the argument list
should be passed through NSTask. I tried making my various arguments into one
big string, but ffmeg doesn’t parse it, instead writing an error.
Here’s my code:
NSString* execPath = [[[self class] ffMPEGURL] path];
NSString* argString = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"-i \"%@\" -c copy
%@", [url absoluteString], [self.outputFileURL absoluteString]];
self.ffMPEGTask = [NSTask launchedTaskWithLaunchPath:execPath
arguments:@[argString]];
What the argument string should look like is:
-i <source url> -c copy <dest file>
ffmpeg responds:
Unrecognized option 'i "http://<the stream url>" -c copy file:///<destination
file>'.
Error splitting the argument list: Option not found
Obviously I need to pass the arguments differently, but it’s not clear what I
need to do.
