Are there any flags that will let me playback an unfinished transcode?
Reason I am asking is that if my various options in the transcode command
did not yield what I like, then I would like to abort the transcode.
mp4 files will never be playable without "finishing" them. But you can
interrupt the process at anytime with 'q'; that will properly close the
file so you can play it.
Thanks - that is somewhat a panacea, especially if one
is not 50% or more into the transcoding - so that issuing
a 'q' will not lose too much is only say the transcoding is
into 10 minutes of the video.
Now how about ffplay? I mean is/are there options
to ffplay that would allow the playing of the unfinsihed
mp4 file (without quitting the trancoding)?
just read about what "faststart" does - it moves important information
so that a file can start playing before it is completly loaded which are
normally only available after encoding is finished fro the end of the
file at the begin
since that informations just don't exist before that you can answer that
yourself
