Package: ffmpeg2theora
Version: 0.24-2
Severity: normal
ffmpeg's manpage states:
To read from standard input, specify `-' as the input filename.
However, it does not warn some options will fail silently - At least
«-s» does.
Regarding my specific use case: AFAICT, .ogg files can be legally
concatenated by just using 'cat':
cat file1.ogg file2.ogg > file.ogg
I tried then to join two files I have, and skip the first minute in a
single step: (simplification - I am doing some other processing to it)
cat file1.ogg file2.ogg | ffmpeg2theora -s 60 -o file.ogg -
The resulting file was... Well, just the concatenation of file1 and
file2. Not even a warning was printed informing me it could not delay
the beginning when operating on a string. What I did, and worked
correctly, is to split this in a two-step operation:
cat file1.ogg file2.ogg > tempfile.ogg
ffmpeg2theora -s 60 -o file.ogg tempfile.ogg
Which worked successfully. If this is expected behaviour, it should at
least be documented as such.
Thanks,
