#7002 new defect

reading wav file from a pipe does not obey the probesize setting

Reported by: Arthur Kantor Owned by:
Priority: normal Component: avformat
Version: git-master Keywords: wav
Cc: Blocked By:
Blocking: Reproduced by developer: no
Analyzed by developer: no

Description

Summary of the bug:
It seems that when a .wav file is read from stdin, the codec probe does not finish until is sees >100kB of data, or EOS.

Setting the probesize to something smaller doesn't help.

How to reproduce:

ffmpeg version: 3.3.2-static http://johnvansickle.com/ffmpeg/ (see log below)
built on: gcc 5.4.1 (Debian 5.4.1-11) 20170519
% (pv -f  -c -L 32000 countToTwelve.wav | ./ffmpeg -v 9 -loglevel 99 -i -  -analyzeduration 200 -probesize 200  countToTwelve.flac) |& tr '\r' '\n'

Any WAV audio will reproduce.

The (pv -f -c -L 32000 countToTwelve.wav | ... ) |& tr '\r' '\n'
pipes the 16khz countToTwelve.wav file at realtime into ffmpeg, and prints progress lines like
375KiB 0:00:12 [31.4KiB/s] [=================> ] 55% ETA 0:00:09}

Here's the output:

Only after the probe is finished do we see anything transcoded on STDOUT, which is too long for interactive applications.

Thanks.

Please test current FFmpeg git head to make this a valid ticket.

Can you confirm that the issue is only reproducible if the content of the wav file is pcm_s16le?
Is the issue also reproducible if you configure with --disable-demuxer=spdif?

comment:2 by Arthur Kantor, 6 years ago

Hi,

I confirm the same behavior in the current git head (see the headers of the logs below).


Using mp3 codec in .wav container still seems to give a large delay before probe finishes, but less of one than for pcm_s16le. mulaw codec in .wav container gives the same delay when measured in bytes (and twice as long when measured in audio duration).

$ file mp3InWav.wav mulawInWav.wav

comment:4 by Arthur Kantor, 6 years ago

Hi, any thoughts on this? Isn't it kind of strange that .wav is the only container that needs to look far into the stream before the probe finishes...

comment:5 by Arthur Kantor, 6 years ago

A couple of things:

  1. In the examples above, I was giving the wrong way to reproduce. Instead of

(pv -f -c -L 32000 countToTwelve.wav | ./ffmpeg -v 9 -loglevel 99 -i - -analyzeduration 200 -probesize 200 countToTwelve.flac) |& tr '\r' '\n'
it should have been
(pv -f -c -L 32000 countToTwelve.wav | ./ffmpeg -v 9 -loglevel 99 -analyzeduration 200 -probesize 200 -i - countToTwelve.flac) |& tr '\r' '\n'

  1. Somehow the problem is fixed in 3.4.2 (was still broken in 3.3.2).

So, please close this ticket.

I get identical behaviour with different versions of FFmpeg, please provide your input file.

Attachment: sample.wav added

comment:7 by Arthur Kantor, 6 years ago

You are right - it comes down to a difference in the .wav files themselves.

$ file countToTwelve.wav 
countToTwelve.wav: RIFF (little-endian) data, WAVE audio, Microsoft PCM, 16 bit, stereo 16000 Hz
$ file sample.wav 
sample.wav: RIFF (little-endian) data, WAVE audio, stereo 16000 Hz

countToTwelve.wav is slow, sample.wav is fast. So the problem isn't yet solved.

It seems the difference is that sample has 32bit floats, and countToTwelve has 16bit shorts (which is way more common).

in reply to:  7 comment:8 by Carl Eugen Hoyos, 6 years ago

Replying to akantor:

It seems the difference is that sample has 32bit floats, and countToTwelve has 16bit shorts (which is way more common).

Isn't that what I wrote in comment:1?

comment:9 by Arthur Kantor, 6 years ago

Ah, now I see what you meant. Yes, you did write that :)

Right, the problem doesn't seem to happen if the audio is not 16bit shorts. Does this give some hint of where to look?
