Hi,
There are many MP4 files in a folder say 50 files . All these files are video clipping files.Instead of playing the video one by one , is it possible to play all video clipping files into single shot ?
Say for example when i play one video file it gets over after sometime and to view... (5 Replies)

Anyone order or get the new Rasberry Pi? I'm still waiting. Even though it's a fun project, I think these will turn out to be toys for people who already have PC's, and a boon to those who do not.

lavpipe
lavpipe(1) MJPEG tools manual lavpipe(1)
NAME
lavpipe - creates raw YUV streams from pipe list scripts
SYNOPSIS
lavpipe [-o num] [-n num] pipe-list
DESCRIPTION
lavpipe reads a script file called 'pipe list' that is of a similar structure as the edit lists that can be fed into lav2yuv. For info
about the pipe list format see below.
The pipe list defines several video sources and filters that are combined by lavpipe to produce a single output YUV stream on stdout (which
for example can be compressed and stored to disk via mpeg2enc(1) or yuv2lav(1)).
OPTIONS
The command line options are used to output a specific part of the resulting video stream. That means you can tell lavpipe how many frames
to skip and how many frames to deliver from that point on.
-o num This is the frame offset of the output video. The first num frames of the resulting video simply are neither calculated nor written
to stdout. This value defaults to 0.
-n num This is the frame count. If the input files or streams defined in the pipe list script are long enough, the output will be of
exactly num frames length. A value of 0 means that all frames until the last one as defined in the pipe list will be written out, as
long as there's some input (0 is the default).
pipe-list
This is name of the pipe list file that lavpipe will 'execute'. For information about this file's format see below.
-? Display a synopsis of the command syntax.
EXAMPLES
lavpipe -o 100 -n 25 film.pli
would calculate and output to stdout frames 100 to 124 as defined in film.pli (in PAL this would be the 5th second of the film).
lavpipe input.pli | yuv2lav -q80 output.avi
would save the movie assembled by lavpipe as a single AVI file.
USAGE
In this section the format of lavpipe's input files the pipe list scripts is explained. If you need some examples or a more detailed tuto-
rial, please read the mjpegtools(1) manpage's section about CREATING MOVIE TRANSITIONS. and the file README.lavpipe that should be included
in the distribution. Also feel free to contact us via the mailing list (see below).
A pipe list contains of two parts: the YUV source list and after this, as many sequence descriptions as wanted. It always begins with the
following two lines:
LAV Pipe List
This is the first line in every pipe list script. It is used as a simple test if lavpipe really was given a pipe list script and not
your PhD thesis as input.
NTSC|PAL
This is the second line in every pipe list and can be either PAL or NTSC, depending on what video standard you use. I don't remember
if this is used at the moment.
Now follows the source list:
num This is the number of input commands. lavpipe will read the next num lines and interpret them as input stream commands.
command (num times)
This is a valid command line with two variables $o and $n that will be replaced by lavpipe with the offset and number of frames that
the program has to output. Example:
lav2yuv -o $o -f $n input.avi
Thus, an example source list could look like this:
2
lav2yuv -o $o -f $n scene1.avi
lav2yuv -o $o -f $n scene2.avi
after this you can append as many sequence descriptions as needed. Each of them is built up as follows:
num The number of frames that this sequence will last.
num The number of inputs that will be used in this sequence. This number must of course be less than or equal to the number of inputs
that are defined above.
idx [ofs] (num times)
These are the indices to the sources that are defined at the beginning of the file (first source is 0) with an optional frame offset
(i.e. sequence starts with frame number ofs of this input.) - this value defaults to 0. Example:
0 150
command
This is a valid command line to a YUV filter tool that reads num input streams and writes one output stream, combining its inputs.
Optionally, the filter tool can be given the two $o and $n variables that will be replaced by lavpipe as in the source commands (see
above). For further info read README.lavpipe or the documentation for the filter programs (if available). An example filter could
look like this:
transist.flt -o 0 -O 255 -s $o -n $n -d 50
And if the sequence only has one input that simply should be copied to the output, you can use a dash instead of a command line:
-
And here's an example for a complete pipe list that implements a transistion from scene1.avi to scene2.avi
REMOVE THE COMMENTS AFTER The #
LAV Pipe List
PAL
2
lav2yuv -o $o -f $n scene1.avi
lav2yuv -o $o -f $n scene2.avi
50 # first sequence: 50 frames
1 # contains one input:
0 0 # scene1.avi, offset 0
- # simple output
25 # second sequence: 25 frames
2 # contains two inputs:
0 50 # scene1.avi, offset 50
1 # scene2.avi, offset 0
transist.flt -o 0 -O 255 -s $o -n $n -d 50 # transistion
50 # third sequence: 50 frames
1 # contains one input:
1 25 # scene2.avi, offset 25
- # simple output
BUGS
I'm sure there are enough of them. lavpipe often accepts malformed pipe lists and then writes out a video that was all but intended - with-
out warning.
The mention of $n above is wrong. At one time there were two parameters but now a program is allowed to produce as many frames as it wants.
THe author of the program hard coded, for reasons unknown, $n to be 0.
NOTES
There are also some serious limitations in the system, such as frame-by-frame processing. But as the goal when writing lavpipe was the sim-
plicity of the pipeline, other tools will have to be written to do more interesting tasks.
But I want to note that it is very well possible to write a pipe list that combines several files, and then use that pipe list as an input
for another pipe list by simply using the lavpipe command in the source list (see above) - this can be already used to do some nice things,
if you have some nice filters.
Comments are NOT allowed in pipelist files. The comments (text after #) above are for illustration only.
