FFmpeg git build does not make working fMP4 HLS files

Description

Summary:

Within a relatively new build of FFmpeg, I'm no longer able to make fragmented MP4 / HLS files. I'm currently testing on FFmpeg N-86995-g28e9ba951d-static.

How to reproduce:

H.264 version:

ffmpeg -y -loop 1 -f image2 -i out/480p-h264.jpg -vcodec h264 -r 30 -t 30 \\n   -vf drawtext="fontsize=3:fontfile=VERDANA.TTF:timecode='00\:00\:00\:00':rate=30:text='TCR\:':fontsize=72:fontcolor='white':boxcolor=0x000000AA:box=1:x=10:y=10" \\n   -b:v 500k -hls_segment_type fmp4 -pix_fmt yuvj422p   "out/480p-h264.m3u8"

H.264 output:

You can see the video fail to load on these pages respectively:

http://seventhcycle.net/ffmpeg/hls_hevc/

I'm not quite sure how to assign a bounty on this one, but I'd be willing to assign one to get FFmpeg to the point that it will make both H.264 and HEVC HLS fragments that playback on MacOS High Sierra and iOS 11.

can you leave your m3u8 files here, and let me try play it on quicktime?

Hello,

Sorry, I had to wait on an updated static build since I don't have a script set up to do full FFmpeg builds.

While this works:
http://seventhcycle.net/ffmpeg/hls_h264/

This does not:
http://seventhcycle.net/ffmpeg/hls_hevc/

We're using:

ffmpeg -y -loop 1 -f image2 -i out/480p-h265.jpg -vcodec hevc -r 30 -t 30 -vf drawtext="fontsize=3:fontfile=VERDANA.TTF:timecode='00\:00\:00\:00':rate=30:text='TCR\:':fontsize=72:fontcolor='white':boxcolor=0x000000AA:box=1:x=10:y=10" -b:v 500k -hls_segment_type fmp4 -pix_fmt yuvj422p  -tag:v hvc1 "out/480p-h265.m3u8"

Build is:
ffmpeg version N-87043-gf0f48884b0-static http://johnvansickle.com/ffmpeg/ Copyright (c) 2000-2017 the FFmpeg developers

I am testing this on High Sierra, which has HEVC support for HLS FMP4 fragments.

Thanks!

@stevenliu That looks right. m3u8 file is here:
http://seventhcycle.net/ffmpeg/hls_hevc/out/480p-h265.m3u8

Player is here:
http://seventhcycle.net/ffmpeg/hls_hevc/

The movie looks right here. How are you getting it to play? When I try playing it in Safari, I'm getting a "Missing Plug-in" error. That doesn't quite make sense to me, since HLS and fMP4 should be built-in.

can this link be played?

I get video at that link, but no audio.

I went ahead and updated to High Sierra Beta 8.

Looks like the same problem is present.

Adding bounty of $50 to get this squared away.

Hello,

I tested this on the final release of High Sierra and updated FFmpeg to N-87394-g89a2472ec5-static.

Same problem is present:

http://seventhcycle.net/ffmpeg/hls_hevc/out/480p-h265.m3u8
Says missing plug-in.

Is there any other information I can provide to identify the problem and get this working?

Thanks!

I noticed that ffmpeg does not create an m3u8 that sets the CODECS tag that is required by Apple. Was this an oversight?

This is example of the line that should be contained with the CODECS tag for HEVC

#EXT-X-I-FRAME-STREAM-INF:AVERAGE-BANDWIDTH=287207,BANDWIDTH=328352,CODECS="hvc1.2.4.L123.B0",RESOLUTION=3840x2160,URI="localhost/index.m3u8"

Please examine this document:

Replying to digitaltvguy:

I noticed that ffmpeg does not create an m3u8 that sets the CODECS tag that is required by Apple. Was this an oversight?

This is example of the line that should be contained with the CODECS tag for HEVC

#EXT-X-I-FRAME-STREAM-INF:AVERAGE-BANDWIDTH=287207,BANDWIDTH=328352,CODECS="hvc1.2.4.L123.B0",RESOLUTION=3840x2160,URI="localhost/index.m3u8"

So in the case of this file:
I went ahead and took this example:
http://seventhcycle.net/ffmpeg/hls_hevc/out/test.m3u8

And manually adding this line on the bottom:
#EXT-X-I-FRAME-STREAM-INF:AVERAGE-BANDWIDTH=287207,BANDWIDTH=328352,CODECS="hvc1.2.4.L123.B0",RESOLUTION=3840x2160,URI="test.m3u8"

And saved it here:
http://seventhcycle.net/ffmpeg/hls_hevc/out/test.m3u8

I'm still seeing text saying there's a missing plugin here. Does the contents of this file look right on your side, or should the placement / URL be different?

Just looking to eliminate factors that would prevent the FFmpeg-made HLS files from playing.

Thanks.

From what I see here, this doesn't look like a header issue. Both of these files have pretty much the same header. One plays, and one doesn't, though.

Looks like this is still happening with FFmpeg 3.4.

I'm increasing the bounty on this to $100. Please either message me or provide information in the ticket if you want any information or if there's anything I can do on my end.

Do you need to use YUV 4:2:2 format? If you replace -pix_fmt yuvj422p with -pix_fmt yuv420p, in your HEVC command line, it should be more compatible and should work. It does in my test.

comment:20 by Mark El-Wakil, 6 years ago

@tbucher That looks like it works within the test you provided.

YUV420 seems to work here, but not YUV422.

Any idea if this is a bug in the implementation of FFmpeg, or Safari doesn't have support for 4:2:2?

It is unlikely that Safari supports yuv422p (and even more unlikely that full-scale is supported).
