This is currently done in two places:
* at the end of print_final_stats(), which merely prints a warning if
the total size of all written packets is zero
* at the end of transcode() (under a misleading historical 'close each
encoder' comment), which instead checks the packet count to implement
-abort_on empty_output[_stream]
Consolidate both of these blocks into a single function called from
of_write_trailer(), which is a more appropriate place for this. Also,
return an error code rather than exit immediately, which ensures all
output files are properly closed.
Properly pass muxing return codes through the call stack instead.
Slightly changes behavior in case of errors:
* the output IO stream is closed even if writing the trailer returns an
error, which should be more correct
* all files get properly closed with -xerror, even if one of them fails
Analogous to -enc_stats*, but happens right before muxing. Useful
because bitstream filters and the sync queue can modify packets after
encoding and before muxing. Also has access to the muxing timebase.
There are 8 of them and they are typically used together. Allows to pass
just this struct to forced_kf_apply(), which makes it clear that the
rest of the OutputStream is not accessed there.
Do it in set_dispositions() rather than during stream creation.
Since at this point all other stream information is known, this allows
setting disposition based on metadata, which implements #10015. This
also avoids an extra allocated string in OutputStream that was unused
after of_open().
This is now possible since OutputStream is a child of OutputFile and the
code allocating it can access MuxStream. Avoids the overhead and extra
complexity of allocating two objects instead of one.
Similar to what was previously done for OutputFile/Muxer.
Replace it with an array of streams in each OutputFile. This is a more
accurate reflection of the actual relationship between OutputStream and
OutputFile. This is easier to handle and will allow further
simplifications in future commits.
This is now possible since the code allocating OutputFile can see
sizeof(Muxer). Avoids the overhead and extra complexity of allocating
two objects instead of one.
Similar to what is done e.g. for AVStream/FFStream in lavf.
It has been deprecated in favor of the aresample filter for almost 10
years.
Another thing this option can do is drop audio timestamps and have them
generated by the encoding code or the muxer, but
- for encoding, this can already be done with the setpts filter
- for muxing this should almost never be done as timestamp generation by
the muxer is deprecated, but people who really want to do this can use
the setts bitstream filter
update_video_stats() currently uses OutputStream.data_size to print the
total size of the encoded stream so far and the average bitrate.
However, that field is updated in the muxer thread, right before the
packet is sent to the muxer. Not only is this racy, but the numbers may
not match even if muxing was in the main thread due to bitstream
filters, filesize limiting, etc.
Introduce a new counter, data_size_enc, for total size of the packets
received from the encoder and use that in update_video_stats(). Rename
data_size to data_size_mux to indicate its semantics more clearly.
No synchronization is needed for data_size_mux, because it is only read
in the main thread in print_final_stats(), which runs after the muxer
threads are terminated.
Same issues apply to it as to -shortest.
Changes the results of the following tests:
- matroska-flac-extradata-update
The test reencodes two input FLAC streams into three output FLAC
streams. The last output stream is limited to 8 frames. The current
code results in the first two output streams having 12 frames, after
this commit all three streams have 8 frames and are the same length.
This new result is better, since it is predictable.
- mkv-1242
The test streamcopies one video and one audio stream, video is limited
to 11 frames. The new result shortens the audio stream so that it is
not longer than the video.
