Description
Summary of the bug: I tried to get a JSON from ffprobe to get sidedata information from several video files, but it seems the generated JSON ist malformed and therefore not convenient for further processing. My command:
ffprobe -read_intervals %+#2 -select_streams v:0 -show_frames -show_entries side_data "source.mkv" -print_format json -of json > "source_sidedata.json"
ffmpeg version: ffmpeg-20191004-e6625ca-win64-static <http://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/>
The resulting JSON files always looks like
{ "packets_and_frames": [ { "type": "packet", }, { "type": "packet", }, { "type": "frame", "media_type": "audio", "stream_index": 1, "key_frame": 1, "pkt_pts": 171, "pkt_pts_time": "0.171000", "pkt_dts": 171, "pkt_dts_time": "0.171000", "best_effort_timestamp": 171, "best_effort_timestamp_time": "0.171000", "pkt_duration": 21, "pkt_duration_time": "0.021000", "pkt_pos": "313258", "pkt_size": "1522", "sample_fmt": "fltp", "nb_samples": 1024, "channels": 6, "channel_layout": "5.1" }, [...]
Obviously the problem is the comma which is always set after the last line ""type": "packet" in the "packets_and_frames" section. ffprobe usually gives me proper JSON files but the comma problem appears when "-show_entries side_data" is used.
