Ideally it should copy the stream, and if there is an issue then anyways it should not fail, maybe skip the stream

WTV to TS copy Audio streams broken

comment:1 by Carl Eugen Hoyos, 11 years ago

Keywords: wtv ac3 added
Summary: FFMPEG not able to copy audio streams from WTV to TSFFMPEG not able to copy empty audio stream in wtv
Version: unspecifiedgit-master

This is not necessarily a bug:
FFmpeg cannot copy streams that are detected but not correctly identified (like stream 0:1 in this case). The question is therefore: Is it a bug that the stream is detected (is there actually no stream)? Or is there any software that correctly identifies (plays) the second audio stream?

If there is a bug (in the wtv demuxer or the ac3 decoder) it is certainly not mpeg-ts related: You can reproduce the problem with the following command line:
$ ffmpeg -i broken_remux.wtv -map 0:2 -acodec copy out.ac3

comment:2 by ramitb, 11 years ago

Same issue

ffmpeg.x86.exe -i broken_remux.wtv -map 0:2 -acodec copy out.ac3

comment:3 by pross, 11 years ago

Just to extend what cehoyos said. The second audio stream contains no data. There are no reliable flags in the WTV file format that indicate when a stream contains no data.

    Stream #0:2[0x32]: Audio: ac3, 0 channels, s16

This ticket should be recast as an suggested feature, i.e. give the user a warning when he/she attempts to manipulate a stream that is potentially empty.

comment:4 by ramitb, 11 years ago

Ideally it should not copy it, skip it - whether it chooses to show it or not is debatable, I would suggest since it doesn't exist it should not show it at all. Alternatively if it doesn't exist it should just show an warning and move on as though it never existed and continue, but it shouldn't fail.

We can't control what *Microsoft* does but we can ensure that we don't fail where possible.

Folks - any thoughts on this? It's driving me crazy, I'm not able to convert files because ffmpeg keeps bugging out on Audio Tracks with zero channels.

I'm facing the same issue with TS files also - attaching a sample.
Very frustrating issue, I'm trying to cut a section of the video and it just bugs out because of this zero channel audio track.

There should be some way to continue the stream copy and not FAIL because of a invalid track. This isn't just a microsoft issue, it looks like other media recorders also also creating this zero track audio channel fro some reason.

Can FFMPEG throw a warning or put a flag like -ignoreInvalidTracks to skip over these channels?

Here's the output

ffmpeg -i zeroAudioChannel.ts -map 0:a -map 0:v -vcodec copy -acodec copy test-out.ts

@peter ross - any thoughts on this?

Summary: FFMPEG not able to copy empty audio stream in wtvffmpeg: warn user when attemping to manipulate stream that is potentially empty
Type: defectenhancement

There is no way for the wtvdec to detect "empty streams" reliably.

In your workflow, I suggest you use ffprobe to detect the presence of potientially empty streams, and filter them out using -map.

Component: undeterminedFFmpeg
Keywords: ffmpeg ts removed
Resolution: invalid
Status: newclosed

Afaict, there is no issue: FFmpeg does not just "warn" about a stream that cannot be manipulated, it prints an error.
Remember that -map 0 does not work the way you imagine it / the option cannot read minds.
