Hello all,
I'm using astats and ametadata filters to measure and print the audio levels
for each frame. I would like to pipe each result to another process stdin.
That works for the following command:
1) ffmpeg.exe -f dshow -i audio="Microphone (Realtek High Definition Audio)"
-af
astats=metadata=1:reset=1,ametadata=print:key=lavfi.astats.Overall.Peak_level
-f null -
But in this case the output is printed to stderr. I would like to print it to a
separate pipe. Therefore I want use the "file"-option and the pipe protocol
("-" / "pipe:1", "pipe:4" etc.). For an example command see 2). The PowerShell
stuff behind the "|" can be ignored (I just added it as an example):
2) ffmpeg.exe -f dshow -i audio="Microphone (Realtek High Definition Audio)"
-af
astats=metadata=1:reset=1,ametadata=print:key=lavfi.astats.Overall.Peak_level:file=-
-f null - | Select-String -Pattern lavfi
Unfortunately, with the file option it does not print the audio levels for each
frame separately to stdout/pipe:x. It kind of buffers a huge amount of values
and then it releases them periodically. I suspect it's optimized for writing
"normal" files but in this case a switch would be needed that allows immediate
output of the values per frame.
Is it possible to achieve the same behaviour like in case 1) so that each
frames audio levels are send asap to stdout/pipe:x ?
Best Regards,
Richard

Output case 1) - send q to stdin after 4 seconds:
ffmpeg.exe -f dshow -i audio="Microphone (Realtek High Definition Audio)" -af
astats=metadata=1:reset=1,ametadata=print:key=lavfi.astats.Overall.Peak_level
-f null -
