Simplify FFmpeg amerge and volume customization


I have 3 consecutive FFmpeg commands that will customize the volume of an audio, customize the volume of a video, and amerge audio and video to a final output.


First command, edit volume level of a mp3 File


  ffmpeg -i music.mp3 -vol 100 music2.mp3

Second command, edit volume level of a mp4 file


ffmpeg -i video.mp4 -vol 200 video2.mp4

Third command,merge music2.mp3andvideo2.mp4


ffmpeg -i music2.mp3 -i ruby.mp4 -filter_complex \
    "[0:a][1:a]amerge,pan=stereo:c0    -map 1:v -map "[out]" -c:v copy -c:a libfdk_aac -shortest video2.mp4

Is there an easy way to simplify and breakdown processes into just one process/command?


I've tried this one, but not working:


ffmpeg -i music.mp3 -vol 100 -i video.mp4 -vol 200 -filter_complex \
    "[0:a][1:a]amerge,pan=stereo:c0    -map 1:v -map "[out]" -c:v copy -c:a libfdk_aac -shortest output.mp4

Answer




You can do this in one command using the volume audio filter instead of the old -vol option (as mentioned by your console output):


ffmpeg -i music.mp3 -i videowithaudio.mp4 -filter_complex \
"[0:a]volume=0.390625[a1];[1:a]volume=0.781250[a2]; \
 [a1][a2]amerge,pan=stereo:c0-map 1:v -map "[out]" -c:v copy -c:a libfdk_aac -shortest output.mp4

You may have to adjust the values for volume.




syntax is deprecated


[Parsed_pan_4 @ 0x244c980] This syntax is deprecated. Use '|' to separate the list items.

Don't worry – you can ignore this message.


could not choose their formats


[AVFilterGraph @ 0x26549a0] The following filters could not choose their formats: Parsed_amerge_3
Consider inserting the (a)format filter near their input or output.

All inputs must have the same sample rate and format for amerge. If they are different then you will have to use the aformat audio filter:


ffmpeg -i music.mp3 -i videowithaudio.mp4 -filter_complex \
"[0:a]aformat=sample_fmts=fltp:sample_rates=44100:channel_layouts=stereo,volume=0.5[a1]; \
 [1:a]aformat=sample_fmts=fltp:sample_rates=44100:channel_layouts=stereo,volume=0.8[a2]; \
 [a1][a2]amerge,pan=stereo:c0-map 1:v -map "[out]" -c:v copy -c:a libfdk_aac -shortest output.mp4

Use Google instead of Bing with Windows 10 search

I want to use Google Chrome and Google search instead of Bing when I search in Windows 10. Google Chrome is launched when I click on web, but it's Bing search. (My default search engine on Google and Edge is http://www.google.com ) I haven't found how to configure that. Someone can help me ? Answer There is no way to change the default in Cortana itself but you can redirect it in Chrome. You said that it opens the results in the Chrome browser but it used Bing search right? There's a Chrome extension now that will redirect Bing to Google, DuckDuckGo, or Yahoo , whichever you prefer. More information on that in the second link.

linux - Using an index to make grep faster?

I find myself grepping the same codebase over and over. While it works great, each command takes about 10 seconds, so I am thinking about ways to make it faster. So can grep use some sort of index? I understand an index probably won't help for complicated regexps, but I use mostly very simple patters. Does an indexer exist for this case? EDIT: I know about ctags and the like, but I would like to do full-text search. Answer what about cscope , does this match your shoes? Allows searching code for: all references to a symbol global definitions functions called by a function functions calling a function text string regular expression pattern a file files including a file

How do I transmit a single hexadecimal value serial data in PuTTY using an Alt code?

I am trying to sent a specific hexadecimal value across a serial COM port using PuTTY. Specifically, I want to send the hex codes 9C, B6, FC, and 8B. I have looked up the Alt codes for these and they are 156, 182, 252, and 139 respectively. However, whenever I input the Alt codes, a preceding hex value of C2 is sent before 9C, B6, and 8B so the values that are sent are C2 9C, C2 B6, and C2 8B. The value for FC is changed to C3 FC. Why are these values being placed before the hex value and why is FC being changed altogether? To me, it seems like there is a problem internally converting the Alt code to hex. Is there a way to directly input hex values without using Alt codes in PuTTY? Answer What you're seeing is just ordinary text character set conversion. As far as PuTTY is concerned, you are typing (and reading) text , not raw binary data, therefore it has to convert the text to bytes in whatever configured character set before sending it over the wire. In other words, when y...
