I have a simple Python script that converts to DASH format. It runs perfectly on my MacMini but fails on our Processing PC. I have several other Python scripts that leverage FFMPEG and they all run fine.
Anyone have any ideas as to what is going on? This is the command being called on the PC. The only difference between PC and Mac is the input location string. *ffmpeg -i X:/DASH/VIDEO_7984.h265.mp4 -y -preset veryslow -keyint_min 100 -g 100 -sc_threshold 0 -r 25 -c:v libx264 -pix_fmt yuv420p -c:a aac -b:a 128k -ac 1 -ar 44100 -map v:0 -s:0 1920x960 -b:v:0 2M -maxrate:0 2.14M -bufsize:0 3.5M -map v:0 -s:1 1440x720 -b:v:1 145k -maxrate:1 155k -bufsize:1 220k -map v:0 -s:2 2880x1440 -b:v:2 365k -maxrate:2 390k -bufsize:2 640k -map v:0 -s:3 3320x1660 -b:v:3 730k -maxrate:3 781k -bufsize:3 1278k -map v:0 -s:4 3320x1660 -b:v:4 1.1M -maxrate:4 1.17M -bufsize:4 2M -map v:0 -s:5 3840x1920 -b:v:5 3M -maxrate:5 3.21M -bufsize:5 5.5M -map v:0 -s:6 3840x1920 -b:v:6 4.5M -maxrate:6 4.8M -bufsize:6 8M -map v:0 -s:7 4096x2048 -b:v:7 6M -maxrate:7 6.42M -bufsize:7 11M -map v:0 -s:8 4096x2048 -b:v:8 7.8M -maxrate:8 8.3M -bufsize:8 14M -map 0:a -init_seg_name init\$RepresentationID\$.\$ext\$ -media_seg_name chunk\$RepresentationID\$-\$Number%05d\$.\$ext\$ -use_template 1 -use_timeline 1 -f dash Dash/dash.mpd* This is the console output all the way to the failure. *ffmpeg version 4.2.3 Copyright (c) 2000-2020 the FFmpeg developers* * built with gcc 9.3.1 (GCC) 20200523* * configuration: --enable-gpl --enable-version3 --enable-sdl2 --enable-fontconfig --enable-gnutls --enable-iconv --enable-libass --enable-libdav1d --enable-libbluray --enable-libfreetype --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libopencore-amrnb --enable-libopencore-amrwb --enable-libopenjpeg --enable-libopus --enable-libshine --enable-libsnappy --enable-libsoxr --enable-libtheora --enable-libtwolame --enable-libvpx --enable-libwavpack --enable-libwebp --enable-libx264 --enable-libx265 --enable-libxml2 --enable-libzimg --enable-lzma --enable-zlib --enable-gmp --enable-libvidstab --enable-libvorbis --enable-libvo-amrwbenc --enable-libmysofa --enable-libspeex --enable-libxvid --enable-libaom --enable-libmfx --enable-amf --enable-ffnvcodec --enable-cuvid --enable-d3d11va --enable-nvenc --enable-nvdec --enable-dxva2 --enable-avisynth --enable-libopenmpt* * libavutil 56. 31.100 / 56. 31.100* * libavcodec 58. 54.100 / 58. 54.100* * libavformat 58. 29.100 / 58. 29.100* * libavdevice 58. 8.100 / 58. 8.100* * libavfilter 7. 57.100 / 7. 57.100* * libswscale 5. 5.100 / 5. 5.100* * libswresample 3. 5.100 / 3. 5.100* * libpostproc 55. 5.100 / 55. 5.100* *Input #0, mov,mp4,m4a,3gp,3g2,mj2, from 'X:/DASH/VIDEO_7984.h265.mp4':* * Metadata:* * major_brand : mp42* * minor_version : 0* * compatible_brands: mp42mp41* * creation_time : 2022-02-23T19:29:37.000000Z* * Duration: 00:00:19.01, start: 0.000000, bitrate: 60188 kb/s* * Stream #0:0(eng): Video: hevc (Main) (hvc1 / 0x31637668), yuv420p(tv, bt709), 5120x2560 [SAR 1:1 DAR 2:1], 60038 kb/s, 29.97 fps, 29.97 tbr, 30k tbn, 29.97 tbc (default)* * Metadata:* * creation_time : 2022-02-23T19:29:37.000000Z* * handler_name : ?Mainconcept Video Media Handler* * encoder : HEVC Coding* * Side data:* * stereo3d: 2D* * spherical: equirectangular (0.000000/0.000000/0.000000) * * Stream #0:1(eng): Audio: aac (LC) (mp4a / 0x6134706D), 48000 Hz, stereo, fltp, 317 kb/s (default)* * Metadata:* * creation_time : 2022-02-23T19:29:37.000000Z* * handler_name : #Mainconcept MP4 Sound Media Handler* *Stream mapping:* * Stream #0:0 -> #0:0 (hevc (native) -> h264 (libx264))* * Stream #0:0 -> #0:1 (hevc (native) -> h264 (libx264))* * Stream #0:0 -> #0:2 (hevc (native) -> h264 (libx264))* * Stream #0:0 -> #0:3 (hevc (native) -> h264 (libx264))* * Stream #0:0 -> #0:4 (hevc (native) -> h264 (libx264))* * Stream #0:0 -> #0:5 (hevc (native) -> h264 (libx264))* * Stream #0:0 -> #0:6 (hevc (native) -> h264 (libx264))* * Stream #0:0 -> #0:7 (hevc (native) -> h264 (libx264))* * Stream #0:0 -> #0:8 (hevc (native) -> h264 (libx264))* * Stream #0:1 -> #0:9 (aac (native) -> aac (native))* *Press [q] to stop, [?] for help* *[libx264 @ 000002dcc5727940] using SAR=1/1* *[libx264 @ 000002dcc5727940] using cpu capabilities: MMX2 SSE2Fast SSSE3 SSE4.2 AVX FMA3 BMI2 AVX2* *[libx264 @ 000002dcc5727940] profile High, level 5.1, 4:2:0, 8-bit* *[libx264 @ 000002dcc5727940] 264 -
