Description

Summary of the bug:
when transcode from udp multicast to rtmp, RAM usage increasing even when there is no free RAM, goes to swap, in 12 hours can use approximative 9GB of RAM
How to reproduce:
ffmpeg command with output

Is the issue only reproducible with udp input or also with file (or testsrc) input?
Is the issue only reproducible with rtmp output or also with file output?
Please test current FFmpeg git head to make this a valid ticket and please provide valgrind output, this is required for reports concerning memory leaks.

Is the issue only reproducible with --enable-librtmp or also with ./configure && make?

Unrelated: You should not use --enable-nonfree --disable-yasm in your configure line.

comment:9 by Michael Niedermayer, 8 years ago

how can this be reproduced ?

comment:10 by Carl Eugen Hoyos, 8 years ago

I use ffmpeg -re -f lavfi -i testsrc=r=5 -f mpegts udp://127.0.0.1:12345 and valgrind ./ffmpeg_g -i udp://127.0.0.1:12345 -r 20 -vcodec mpeg1video -qscale 2 -mbd 2 -f null -t 5 -

comment:11 by Carl Eugen Hoyos, 8 years ago

Also reproducible with the following command line, see ticket #5004:

$ ffmpeg -hide_banner -loglevel quiet -f lavfi -i testsrc -t 2 -f mpeg2video - | valgrind --leak-check=yes ./ffmpeg_g -i - -vcodec mpeg1video -f null -

comment:12 by Roger Pack, 8 years ago

Summary: memory leak when reencoding udp inputmemory leak when reencoding to native encoder

also seems reproducible with the following, from #5118:

./ffmpeg_g  -f lavfi -i color=c=red:size=10x10 -f mpegts - | ./ffmpeg_g -i - -vcodec mpeg4 -f null out

Also seems to not be tied to mpeg2video input video codec, as the following also repro's it:

./ffmpeg_g  -f lavfi -i color=c=red:size=10x10 -vcodec mpeg4 -f mpegts - | ./ffmpeg_g -i - -vcodec mpeg4 -f null out

(however, if the input is libx264 then it doesn't leak, odd)

The output codec also doesn't seem to matter (seems that any native encoder shows the problem, mpeg2video, mpeg4, jpeg):

 ./ffmpeg_g  -f lavfi -i color=c=red:size=10x10 -f mpegts - | ./ffmpeg_g -i -  -f image2 -y -updatefirst 1  out.jpg

however, if I output to libx264, then the problem also doesn't seem to occur.

comment:13 by Roger Pack, 8 years ago

Here is a valgrind output (not very helpful I'm afraid [I'm on OS X]): https://gist.github.com/rdp/42c8e315cc6438f96249 (the biggest leak is reported at the very bottom).

Also it doesn't matter if input is mpegts or avi, still leaks.
Also note that with testsrc input there's no leak (possibly because its rawvideo).
A possible offending aspect of the commit may be this:

reverting it in my own hackish manner and the leaks at least seem less now, in case useful to anybody:
