Transcode h264 and copy mpeg2video with spawn.
Added by se can over 2 years ago
Hi folks,
I'm looking for a solution, if there is a way to transcode with piping so that the transcoding only works if the input is h264, but if it is mpeg2 it just goes on with a copy, like it is in the built-in mpegts profile.
I now use this command, with minor or major modifications:
/usr/local/bin/ffmpeg -i pipe:0 -c:a copy -c:v h264_nvenc -b:v 3M -minrate 3M -maxrate 3M -bufsize 6M -r 25 -threads 4 -map 0:v -map 0:m:language:hun? -map 0:a -f mpegts pipe:1
The problem is that in this case, on client side only plays the h264 channels, because log says there is no suitable encoder for the mpeg2 input.
With built-in mpegts stream profile it works great, it just starts to stutter after a while and keeps jumping to the next service, even if the switch to another service is turned off.
Sometimes a few minutes after start, sometimes after half an hour, it varies.
Thats in the log, it starts to stutter and then switch to the next service without any entries in the log file:
