#3999 open defect

Input option -r does not work for all formats without reencoding

Reported by: Ilya87 Owned by:

Version: git-master Keywords: fps

Description

Summary of the bug:
How to reproduce:

according to https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/How%20to%20speed%20up%20/%20slow%20down%20a%20video
% ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -filter:v "setpts=2.0*PTS" -c copy output.mp4

Filtergraph 'setpts=2.0*PTS' was defined for video output stream 0:0 but codec copy was selected.                                                         
Filtering and streamcopy cannot be used together.

I couldn't make the -r option change situation.

But as I can understand video duration can be increased without reencoding. And this is done in mkvmerge's stretch option: "Stretch this track's timecodes. This entry can have two formats. It is either a positive floating point number, or a fraction like e.g. 1200/1253. Works best on video and subtitle tracks."
Mkvmerge just changes fps and duration accordingly. In this situation I think ffmpeg should check that only setpts filter is set and process video without encoding. 
Or there might be another way to do the same thing mkvmerge does?

Unfortunately, this has currently no similarity with a valid ticket.

The wiki page does not mention that setpts may work without reencoding and in fact, it cannot work (and it cannot be made working).
The input option -r allows to do what you want, but it does not always work.

Please test current FFmpeg git head and if it allows to reproduce the issue provide a short input file that you want to slow down and the command line with -r that does not work together with the complete, uncut console output.

After this ffplay shows 10 fps in terminal (50 fps in input file is also wrong info - 25 fps is right), but decodes at 25 fps speed as original.

comment:3 by Carl Eugen Hoyos, 9 years ago

Do I understand correctly that it is not possible to provide the command line that does not produce the expected output together with the complete, uncut console output?

comment:4 by Ilya87, 9 years ago

Do you mean when changing fps using ffmpeg?

As I see ffmpeg shows output 50 fps while ffplay shows 10 fps in terminal for 123.mkv

comment:6 by Carl Eugen Hoyos, 9 years ago

Keywords: fps added; Stretching removed
Reproduced by developer: set
Status: newopen
Summary: Stretching (increasing duration) of video without reencodingInput option -r does not work for all formats without reencoding
Version: 2.4.1git-master

One workaround is to use the following commands:

$ ffmpeg -r 10 -i 122.mkv -vcodec copy out.avi
$ ffmpeg -fflags +genpts -i out.avi -vcodec copy out.mkv
