ffmpeg keeps the output file in memory and only writes it to disk after [q]uitting

Description

Tested with current git and 0.10.2.

This seems to happen with one particular input file. I'm trying to remux that file using ffmpeg while transcoding a dts track into ac3. This transcoding seems to trigger the bug. While encoding ffmpeg started allocating huge amounts of memory, on the order of 100MB/s. At first I thought it's a memory leak, bu then I noticed it's keeping the output file in memory and only writes it to disk after I tell it to stop.

My command line:

ffmpeg -i The.Good.the.Bad.and.the.Ugly.1966.720p.BluRay.HQF.mkv -vcodec copy -acodec ac3 -ab 448k -map 0:v -map 0:2 -map 0:6 -map 0:7 -map 0:8 -map 0:9 -scodec copy /mnt/auto/megamagazyn/filmy/The.Good.the.Bad.and.the.Ugly.1966.720p.BluRay.HQF.mkv

0.10.2 didn't print any errors/warnings, but current git floods the screen with the following:

I'll attach a full verbose log, where I let it run for a couple of seconds and pressed 'q'.

I also noticed, that if I only give it -c copy -map 0, it quits immediately with the following error:

At least one output file must be specified

The funniest part? The (partial) output file plays perfectly fine, at least in mplayer2.

comment:2 by Michael Niedermayer, 12 years ago

The sample contains fewer streams than are referenced in the given command line.
Please provide a sample file and a command line that match each other and with which the issue can be reproduced.
As long as we cannot reproduce the issue, we are not able to investigate or fix it.

comment:3 by pmts, 12 years ago

The sample was made from a file with which I could reproduce the problem. Just use -vcodec copy -acodec ac3 -ab 448k -map 0:0 -map 0:1

comment:4 by Carl Eugen Hoyos, 12 years ago

Please provide command line together with complete, uncut console output for the sample you attached.

I don't think the attached sample is long enough to reproduce an issue, please reopen the ticket if you can provide a longer sample (see https://ffmpeg.org/bugreports.html - there is no hard limit on the filesize).
