Broken B frames while copying MPEG-2 ibp without recompression from some point

Reported by: Aleksandr Owned by:
Priority: normal Component: undetermined
Version: git-master Keywords:
Cc: Blocked By:
Blocking: Reproduced by developer: no
Analyzed by developer: no

Description

Copying ibp video without recompression from start point to the end point generates video with several broken frames in the start and in the end of the result file.

How to reproduce:

% ffmpeg -i opengop.mov -ss 3 -t 1 -c copy result.mov
(the container does not matter)
% ffmpeg -i result.mov %d.png

opengop.mov is stored here ​https://yadi.sk/d/z5RvZNremqCxN

ffmpeg version is the last from zeranoe:
ffmpeg-latest-win32-static.7z 10-Jan-2016 01:39

notes:

"Opened GOP" - is MPEG-2 with B-frames, that depend on previous and next key frames. And this B frames are going before I frame in the decoded video stream.

In decoded video stream it is going like b-b-b-I-..
In the file it is layed like I-b-b-b , because it's impossible to decode "b"s without the "next going" I.

So, the problem of "opened gop" begins when you export video from some point, because there is no point (in the file) from where you can start copying frames without leaving first and last frames without the frames they depend on. So you can't just step to the previous or next I frame in the file, because you will get I-b-b-b that's decoding like b-b-b-I , and this b frames depend on the previous key frame.

Maybe you need to force recompression of the "half-of-the-gop" in the beginning and in the end of the file, but I'm not sure this will work, because the next going b-frames after the I-frames will still have their dependencies, but at least they'll have an actual picture before.

Replying to Aleksandr_Slobodeniuk:

C:\data>ffmpeg -i opengop.mov

Did you provide this input file?

comment:4 by Aleksandr, 10 years ago

yes, it's here:
​https://yadi.sk/d/z5RvZNremqCxN

This is the "normal" input file.
by typing

ffmpeg -i opengop.mov -ss 3 -t 1 -c copy result.mov

you can get the "broken" output file result.mov

comment:11 by Carl Eugen Hoyos, 10 years ago

I used your command line to produce result.mov and tested the following:

$ ffmpeg -vsync 0 -i result.mov -vframes 9 out%1d.jpg

The resulting jpg images show "3:11" until "3:19" (nothing missing): What is wrong with the output?

comment:12 by Aleksandr, 10 years ago

1) result must be from 3:00 to 3:24
2) if you type (it's 25 frames)

ffmpeg -i result.mov %d.jpg

you'll see that

  • first 11 frames show 3:11 (because ffmpeg can't decode 11 b frames because they are from the middle of the gop)
  • last 2 frames show 3:24 and 4:01 , 4:00 is missing (because it was not read. 4:01 is a key frame that goes before 4:00 in the file, and it was pulled out with nullptr to avcodec_decode_video)

Replying to Aleksandr_Slobodeniuk:

1) result must be from 3:00 to 3:24

This is impossible for -vcodec copy and the file you provided, and this is not a deficiency of FFmpeg.

2) if you type (it's 25 frames)

No, result.mov only contains 15 frames.

ffmpeg -i result.mov %d.jpg

you'll see that

  • first 11 frames show 3:11 (because ffmpeg can't decode 11 b frames because they are from the middle of the gop)

You have to use -vsync 0 to avoid the command duplicating frames, the ten additional frames are not part of result.mov, the first available frame is "3:11", the second "3:12" and this is not related to FFmpeg but the format of the given input file.

  • last 2 frames show 3:24 and 4:01 , 4:00 is missing (because it was not read. 4:01 is I frame that goes before 4:00 in the file, and it was pulled out with nullptr to avcodec_decode_video)

How should FFmpeg behave in your opinion?

It's possible to get described errors with the output picture. And there is no "clean" way to fix it.
But the solution exists: force recompression of the first gop and the last gop.

P.S.
Intent of this ticket - is to report on this case, not to expect the solution.

Replying to Aleksandr_Slobodeniuk:

This is not how -vcodec copy works.
