I've got a folder of 1080p videos that I'm wanting to encode in 720p. I'm using the below command to do so:
*for i in `ls`; do ffmpeg -y -i $i -vf scale=-1:720,setsar=1:1 -vf subtitles=$i -crf 25 -trellis 2 -tune animation -preset veryslow -c:a copy -f mp4 ../destination/720p/$i.mp4; done* This should scale the video to 720p, but instead "*ffprobe -v quiet -print_format json -show_format -show_streams ../destination/720p/video.mp4*" returns * "width": 1920,* * "height": 1080,* * "coded_width": 1920,* * "coded_height": 1088,* This is the relevant output from ffmpeg: //Input data is clearly 1920x1080 Input Metadata: encoder : no_variable_data creation_time : 1970-01-01 00:00:00 Duration: 00:24:11.97, start: 0.000000, bitrate: 3196 kb/s Stream #0:0: Video: h264 (High), yuv420p, *1920x1080* [SAR 1:1 DAR 16:9], 23.81 fps, 23.81 tbr, 1k tbn, 47.95 tbc (default) //Now here's the output Output Metadata: encoder : Lavf56.40.101 Stream #0:0: Video: h264 (libx264) ([33][0][0][0] / 0x0021), yuv420p, *1920x1080* [SAR 1:1 DAR 16:9], q=-1--1, 23.81 fps, 16k tbn, 23.81 tbc (default) It's clear that it never even attempts to set it to 720. I know I must be missing something, but I can't seem to figure out what it is. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated! _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-user mailing list ffmpeg-user@ffmpeg.org http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-user To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-user-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
