Description
Summary of the bug:
To limit the cpu usage of ffmpeg I have used the following command in the past:
while true ; do pkill -STOP ffmpeg && sleep 0.1 && pkill -CONT ffmpeg && sleep 0.1 ; done
This does not seem to work anymore, ffmpeg turns into a zombie process after a little while. -loglevel debug does not show anything. I have tried the latest git snapshot as well.
How to reproduce:
% ffmpeg version N-95534-gac0f5f4c17 Copyright (c) 2000-2019 the FFmpeg developers built with Apple LLVM version 10.0.1 (clang-1001.0.46.4) configuration: --enable-libx264 --enable-libx265 --enable-nonfree --enable-gpl shell #1: for i in *.MP4 ; do ffmpeg -loglevel debug -i $i -f null - ; done shell #2: while true ; do pkill -STOP ffmpeg && sleep 0.1 && pkill -CONT ffmpeg && sleep 0.1 ; done
Patches should be submitted to the ffmpeg-devel mailing list and not this bug tracker.
