Description

I'm recording from a D-Link DCS-2230 IP Camera with this command:

ffmpeg -use_wallclock_as_timestamps 1 -rtsp_transport tcp -i 'rtsp://admin:@192.168.1.83/live1.sdp' -dn -map 0 -codec:a libfdk_aac -flags +qscale -global_quality 1 -afterburner 1 -ar 44100 -codec:v copy -f segment -segment_time 60 -segment_wrap 10 -segment_list_flags live -segment_list_size 10 -reset_timestamps 1 -segment_list test.csv -y test_%02d.mkv

With Trunk from 2014/04/09 all works correctly and each output video is exactly 1 minute long. With Trunk from 2014/07/18 the audio duration slowly grows in size and the duration of each video gets 10 seconds longer:

With 2014/04/09 trunk:

deployer@XanBox:~/test$ mediainfo *.mkv | grep -i duration
Duration                                 : 1mn 0s

Duration                                 : 1mn 0s

With 2014/07/18 trunk:

deployer@XanBox:~/test$ mediainfo *.mkv | grep -i duration
Duration                                 : 1mn 1s

Duration                                 : 1mn 11s
Duration                                 : 1mn 11s
Duration                                 : 1mn 21s
Duration                                 : 1mn 21s

Any ideas what could have been changed/broken to cause this to happen?

If you want to report a regression, please run git bisect to find the change introducing the bug.
To make this a valid ticket please provide the command line that does not work correctly together with the complete uncut console output.

comment:8 by Michael Niedermayer, 10 years ago

please provide a publically available rtsp url with which this can be reproduced or a local input file if it can be reproduced without rtsp
so we can debug, test and fix this. Ive fixes some related issues but i suspect this is still not working

comment:9 by Roman Gaufman, 10 years ago

I'm not quite sure how to get a local input file - any example? -- Otherwise I will connect and set up port forwarding tomorrow.

comment:10 by Michael Niedermayer, 10 years ago

you could try to copy the rtsp stuff into some container and check if its reproduceabel with that.
something like ffmpeg -i rstp... -vcodec copy -acodec copy file.nut / file.mkv

Correction, the stream is on: rtsp://86.146.232.61/proxyStream

To reproduce, if you are using homebrew on a Mac, compile ffmpeg with fdk-aac: brew install ffmpeg --with-fdk-aac --HEAD

Then run:

ffmpeg -use_wallclock_as_timestamps 1 -rtsp_transport tcp -i 'rtsp://86.146.232.61/proxyStream' -dn -map 0 -codec:a libfdk_aac -ar 44100 -codec:v copy -f segment -segment_time 60 -segment_wrap 10 -segment_list_flags live -segment_list_size 10 -reset_timestamps 1 -segment_list test.csv -y 'test_%02d.mkv'

comment:14 by Carl Eugen Hoyos, 10 years ago

Is libfdk required to reproduce the problem or is it also reproducible with the native aac encoder?

comment:15 by Roman Gaufman, 10 years ago

I haven't tried the native one as it says "The encoder 'aac' is experimental but experimental codecs are not enabled".

When using libbfaac, the "Non-monotonous DTS" errors are less frequent and the duration doesn't grow, so it does seem to be related to libfdk, not sure if it relates to others too.

Replying to hackeron:

I haven't tried the native one as it says "The encoder 'aac' is experimental but experimental codecs are not enabled".

Please test with -acodec aac -strict -2.

comment:17 by Roman Gaufman, 10 years ago

There seem to be a lot more errors like this:

[segment @ 0x19a5e20] Non-monotonous DTS in output stream 0:1; previous: 12466764, current: 12460908; changing to 12466765. This may result in incorrect timestamps in the output file.
[segment @ 0x19a5e20] Non-monotonous DTS in output stream 0:1; previous: 12466765, current: 12462998; changing to 12466766. This may result in incorrect timestamps in the output file.
[aac @ 0x1a45b80] Queue input is backward in time

But the output video time doesn't grow so I guess it is related to libfdk_aac.

This is the full command I'm using:

ffmpeg -use_wallclock_as_timestamps 1 -rtsp_transport tcp -i 'rtsp://86.146.232.61/proxyStream' -dn -map 0 -acodec aac -strict -2 -ar 44100 -codec:v copy -f segment -segment_time 60 -segment_wrap 10 -segment_list_flags live -segment_list_size 10 -reset_timestamps 1 -segment_list test.csv -y 'test_%02d.mkv'

not reproducable with another rtsp source it seems

comment:20 by Sergey, 10 years ago

Hello, i got similar problem (alot of "Non-monotonous DTS" and picture
twitching) with input from mumudvb.
The problem are appear only with "-codec:v copy".
There is no such problem with ffmpeg 2.2.1, and there are with ffmpeg 2.3.3 and 2.4.1
If you need, i can share input stream.

the rtsp://86.146.233.53/proxyStream stream freezes after a few seconds with every version i tried. The other results in http://194.85.16.42:9005: No such file or directory

comment:26 by Michael Niedermayer, 10 years ago

The "No such file or directory" was caused by a unicode "zero width space" in there
