V4L2 recording results in invalid data & buffer still owned errors

Description
Summary of the bug:
If I try to record from a magewell USB3 V4L2 capture device, it works the first time. However, the 2nd time I try to record from it, I will receive this error. Occasionally capture will die in the middle of a recording with this same error.
How to reproduce:
Run this with a USB3 magewell v4l2 dongle.
ffmpeg -f v4l2 -framerate 60 -s 1920x1080 -i /dev/video1 -f alsa -i
pulse -c:v libx264 -crf 0 -preset ultrafast -c:a pcm_s16le outfile3.mkv
Stop the recording, then run it again. It won't work.
To confirm the issue is isolated to ffmpeg, try using cvlc and it will work. You can use this command as many times as you please and it will always record just fine, and never freeze in the middle of a recording.
cvlc v4l2:// :v4l2-dev=/dev/video1 :v4l2-width=1920 :v4l2-height=1080 --input-slave pulse:// --sout "#transcode{vcodec=HFYU,scale=1}:standard{access=file,dst=camcorder.avi}"
The problem is that CVLC does not allow me to set an input framerate, which is functionality I need, so that I do not stress the CPU too much recording at 60 FPS.

So I compiled the latest ffmpeg from git repository, and turned off the sound recording via alsa/pulse, and here is what I get. As you can see I have to run the command several times before it works, it is totally random whether I will get a recording or an error. This is better than before, usually I have to run it 20-40 times before it works. Usually this isn't an issue but since I am using parallel to record two devices at once it means I have to be lucky enough to not get this error on two separate capture devices, so it takes 100+ tries to get it working.

I tried recompiling with just configure, and I also tried your patch. Since compiling with nothing but ./configure does not give you x264 as a codec, I just decided to specify no video codec which defaulted to mpeg4. It still doesn't work.

If anyone else has this problem, VLC version 3 works with framerate. The reason I was using ffmpeg is because VLC was not letting me set the framerate of an input source with the stable version, but version 3 of VLC adds this functionality. If this buffer stuff gets fixed in ffmpeg, I'd love to go back to ffmpeg, but just incase someone else is in the same situation I am with a magewell USB3 HDMI capture device and needs something that works now, you can use a command line like this with VLC to record video & audio just fine. It never freezes and always works.

If it can be of any help, you can use the following procedure to apply the patch:
1) make sure your master branch is updated:
git checkout master make distclean git pull
2) now create a new branch and apply the patch
git checkout -b v4l2fix git am 0001-lavd-v4l2-produce-a-0-byte-packet-when-a-dequeued-bu.patch
3) Configure / compile / test
4) When you're done you can switch to your master branch again and delete the other
git checkout master git branch -D v4l2fix

I did something embarrassingly ignorant. Your patch works fine, the error is gone. I used the most basic ./configure with nothing but prefix=usr and support for libv4l2. It works but I get only 30% CPU usage with this, so I am going to try re-configuring it with something that more closely correlates with the configuration that I get when I emerge media-video/ffmpeg with portage, and see if I have a working solution.
Thank you so much!

[video4linux2,v4l2 @ 0x1c2ff80] Dequeued v4l2 buffer contains corrupted data (0 bytes).
The message above simply means that the v4l2 driver has passed a corrupt frame to the application (ffmpeg). In this case the application can just ignore it and continue (it is supposed to be a recoverable error). Apart from that warning, does the recording work when you play it again?
And when I go to record, it leaves off where I was before.
What do you mean by that? Also, could you please post the complete output adding -loglevel debug to your command line?
comment:18 by , 10 years ago
To explain a little more precisely:
Originally, the first recording worked, but the second one would not. The error one would receive on the second record was this.
[video4linux2,v4l2 @ 0x1584f80] The v4l2 frame is 0 bytes, but 4147200 bytes are expected
Input #0, video4linux2,v4l2, from '/dev/video1':
Issues of this nature also had a tendency to happen in the middle of a recording.
Now, the 2nd recording does start recording, but you get stuck with one frame, that is the last frame from the prior recording. So you get a video file of one frame, no movement with what is going on, and that video frame in the 2nd recording that makes up the entirety of the recording is the last frame from the first recording.
Here is the command line with debug.

If it would help a developer to resolve this issue I would be happy to provide one of these capture devices & also a portable camcorder with hdmi output to you so you can try for yourself. Let me know if you would like to take me up on this offer. I am not a developer or manufacturer, just an end user that really likes ffmpeg. I have an extra one of these that works, and also a portable camcorder I never use. It would be more than sufficient, all you would need is a computer with a good USB 3.0 port to do the testing.

Do you see the same problems if you test with a significantly smaller resolution?
comment:21 by , 10 years ago
Thanks for your feedback. Some comments:
1) Please test the following command, this will tell us what the hardware actually supports:
ffmpeg -f video4linux2 -list_formats all -i /dev/video0
2) -s is not a v4l2 device option. You can read about all the valid options here:
http://ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg-devices.html#video4linux2_002c-v4l2
the valid command line would be:
ffmpeg -loglevel debug -f v4l2 -framerate 30 -video_size 1920x1080 -i /dev/video2 -c:v libx264 -preset ultrafast -crf 10 microcorder.mkv
Does the problem still exist with using this command? Also, as Carl suggested, test with a smaller resolution.

That would help a lot, yes, so if we can't solve the issue I might take you up on that offer. Also, having a box with remote ssh access would help as an alternative. If you're on IRC ping me sometime (my nick is Holden), I could ask you to do some tests in real time and maybe we could get this fixed faster.

I have the exact same issue with a different device, an INOGENI 4K2USB. I should probably disclaim that I am one of the hardware designers.
The issue is the same, after the device is connected, any ffmpeg command will work. However, if ffmpeg is stopped and the same command (or another) is inputted, it fails with "The v4l2 frame is 0 bytes, but XXXXXXX bytes are expected".
The issue doesn't affect every kernel. I don't have any problem with my Centos 3.10.0 kernel, but the problem was reported and confirmed on Ubuntu 14.04 3.16.0 kernel. So the issue may be with the V4L2 driver, but FFmpeg is the only one to complain about it; gstreamer and VLC are fine.
I tested the 0001-lavd-v4l2-print-buffer-flags-in-case-of-error.patch from holden and was pleased to see that it fixed the problem, albeit a rather harmless error message at the beginning. Is there any chance to apply the patch to upstream?
If you're interested in investigating the issue, I could provide SSH to the ubuntu machine.

Yes, probably something changed in the v4l2 driver with recent kernels.

That patch only modified a message to include the flags of the buffer that gave an error, so I doubt it can actually fix the problem. Nonetheless, I sent it upstream anyway and it was integrated. Maybe you meant the other patch (0001-lavd-v4l2-produce-a-0-byte-packet-when-a-dequeued-bu.patch)?

Yes, if we can't solve it easily that might help, thanks.

Yes, I did mean the 0001-lavd-v4l2-produce-a-0-byte-packet-when-a-dequeued-bu.patch patch, my mistake.
comment:25 by , 9 years ago
Same issue on 4.0.1-1-ARCH. I don't think it's a kernel issue since the Magewell XI100DUSB-HDMI device works fine in gstreamer. http://stackoverflow.com/a/29944546/4534

For whatever it's worth, I too am having the same issue using the Magewell USB3 capture dongle: I'm able to record one time, then subsequent innvocations are met with the "The v4l2 frame is 0 bytes..." error.
I had a similar problem a few months back with Gstreamer, and the dev there did discover it was a v4l2 problem in a recent kernel, so he put together a patch to workaround it: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=740040

Did you (or artwait) try the 0001-lavd-v4l2-produce-a-0-byte-packet-when-a-dequeued-bu.patch? Does it fix the issue on your setup?
comment:28 by , 9 years ago
Yep, I applied the patch to v. 2.6 and it did indeed solve the issue for me. Yay!
Will it be going into the next release?
comment:29 by , 9 years ago
Hello guys, thanks for your feedback. I just saw that the original patch doesn't apply cleanly anymore, so I'll just post a new patch in the following days and ask you for another round of testing. After that I'll send the patch upstream for integration. Thanks.

Hi, could you please test again the latest git head with the new attached patch (0003-lavd-v4l2-produce-a-0-byte-packet-when-a-dequeued-bu.patch)? If you need help on how to apply the patch please see comment 13 on this page (just make sure you change the patch name on step 2). Thanks.

On ubuntu 14.04, I confirmed the bug on git head, applied the patch and now the bug is gone!
Thanks you again holden

Great, thanks for testing again, I've sent the patch upstream and hopefully it'll be applied shortly.

Okay, the patch was accepted upstream so I am closing this bug. Feel free to leave a comment or reopen it if you still have problems. Thanks.
Please test current FFmpeg git head and please provide the command line together with the complete, uncut console output to make this a valid ticket. If the issue is reproducible without audio input please remove it.
