Hello,
I'm writing an ffmpeg wrapper in C# and Qt and been trying for the past 2 weeks
to get output from ffmpeg without much luck. I've realised by trial and error
that it actually outputs into StandardError rather than StandardOutput. But I
can only get partial output, then it stops and I've got no idea how to get the
rest. I would greatly appreciate it if any one could please help. Instead of
opening a console, I'd like to get all ffmpeg output (as if it was running in a
console) into a text box in real time so that I can also show progress.
Here's my code:
Connect(proc, SIGNAL("readyReadStandardError()"), this,
SLOT("OnProcessOutputReady()"));
Connect(btnStart, SIGNAL("clicked()"), this, SLOT("OnBtnStartClicked()"));
[Q_SLOT]
private void OnBtnStartClicked() {
QProcess proc = new QProcess(this);
string codec = "ffmpeg";
List<string> arguments = new List<string>();
arguments.Add("-i");
arguments.Add("video.avi"); // <- this file is actually selected with
an open file dialog
arguments.Add("video.mkv"); // <- this file is actually selected with
an open file dialog
proc.Start(codec, arguments);
}
[Q_SLOT]
private void OnProcessOutputReady() {
proc.WaitForBytesWritten();
QByteArray output = proc.ReadAllStandardError();
String txtoutput = output.ConstData();
this.txtLog.Append(txtoutput);
}
The code does work, the file does get converted and some of the ffmpeg output
does get displayed in the txtLog:
