Does the ffmpeg library come with an MP3 encoder?
This:
AVCodec *pCodec = avcodec_find_encoder(AV_CODEC_ID_MP3);
always returns null. I also tried AV_CODEC_ID_MP3ADU and AV_CODEC_ID_MP3ON4, they too return null. The only encoding codec I've found is AV_CODEC_ID_MP2.
Any help appreciated
libmp3lame is the mp3 encoder for ffmpeg. It needs to be enabled during configure stage of the build. --enable-libmp3lame should enable it. Also you should libmp3lame-dev installed. I follow this guide to install ffmpeg: https://ffmpeg.org/trac/ffmpeg/wiki/UbuntuCompilationGuide
To quickly check if you already have it:
$ ffmpeg -codecs | grep mp3

I have a C program to read video/audio with libav/ffmpeg libraries and decode it.
I am playing with some filters and most work just fine. I can draw text, overlay logos, flip and invert video colours. However, I am having big issues overlaying subtitles.
My filter is very simple.
const char *vfilter_descr = "[in]subtitles=subs.srt[out]";
On the console I get this:
[Parsed_subtitles_0 # 0x7fe76c703240] Shaper: FriBidi 0.19.7 (SIMPLE) HarfBuzz-ng 2.4.0 (COMPLEX)
[Parsed_subtitles_0 # 0x7fe76c703240] Using font provider coretext
[Parsed_subtitles_0 # 0x7fe76c703240] fontselect: (Arial, 400, 0) -> /Library/Fonts/Microsoft/Arial.ttf, -1, ArialMT
[Parsed_subtitles_0 # 0x7fe76c703240] fontselect: (Arial, 400, 100) -> /Library/Fonts/Microsoft/Arial Italic.ttf, -1, Arial-ItalicMT
...which somewhat confirms that subtitles are loading, though I am not sure why there are two fonts being loaded?
However, they are not showing at all - almost as if they never loaded. I tried several different files, including ASS ones but no luck.
ffmpeg version is the latest one.

Any ideas?
I never did manage to get it working. In the end, I used a separate function to read the subtitles from stream and overlay them over the video outside of ffmpeg filter.
I'd like to succeed writing a file with OpenCV encoding with GStreamer.
Thus I'm using the code :
VideoWriter.open("appsrc ! autovideoconvert ! omxh264enc ! matroskamux ! filesink location=test2.mkv sync=false",
//cv::CAP_GSTREAMER, //set or not, I get the same problem
0, (double)25, //fourcc, fps
cv::Size(1024, 1024),
true);
And my problem :
A video file called appsrc ! autovideoconvert ! omxh264enc ! matroskamux ! filesink location=test2.mkv sync=false is created (rather than test2.mkv), and it is empty. The same problem is corrected and seems to work in the following thread, without any effect for me : Opening a GStreamer pipeline from OpenCV with VideoWriter
I tried, without success :
Add quotes to the file name test2 :
"appsrc ! autovideoconvert ! omxh264enc ! matroskamux ! filesink location=\"test2.mkv\" sync=false" neither
Encode with different format : .flv rather than .mkv
Encode with different codec : omxh265enc rather than omxh264en
I checked :

That FFMpeg is installed on my computer ; for this I used VLC :
File -> Stream -> Add a file then stream
New destination : RTP/MPEG Transport Stream
Profile : Video - H.264 + MP3 (MP4)
Then no error happens ; Note : an error occured with Video - H.265 + MP3
(MP4), but I'm using omxh264enc in my code, not 265
I'm struggled :/ Do you have any idea ?
Thanks a lot :)
Have a good day,
Thibaut

Ok, I've eventually found the problem's origin.
By stepping into VideoWriter::open(...) I finally noticed that std::vector backends did not contain any element with "id=CAP_GSTREAMER" -> it did not correctly compile with OpenCV. By investigating more, I discovered it was because I compiled with the x86 version of Gstreamer by mistake (whereas I was building OpenCV for x64).
Have a good day,

For example, this is how to use pulseaudio: http://freedesktop.org/software/pulseaudio/doxygen/pacat-simple_8c-example.html
but I'm not clear on how I can simply play a wav file or an ogg file for that matter.
The example code will play raw PCM data from a file. The trick is getting the data from a wav file into this format. The Microsoft wav files look like this:
https://ccrma.stanford.edu/courses/422/projects/WaveFormat/
Wav files just store raw PCM data. You just have to strip the header off the wav file and dump the rest into a file (extension is irrelevant, but I like to use .raw). That is, you can write a program that either: copies everything past byte 44 into a new file, or just read everything after that directly into a buffer. Pass either format to the pulseaudio example and you should be good to go.
Things to look out for: the endianness of the file and your system; bitdepth; number of channels. These are in the wav header and you may have to read them and tell pa_simple before you play the data. Although, I'm not sure if pa_simple detects this information for you. I like to work with the asynchronous implementation and there I just input the format directly.

I am developing an android app. My requirement is that to implement an rtsp streaming server on android. It has to live stream video and audio captured using MediaRecorder. Another requirement is that I have to use live555 as the streaming server. What I get from MediaRecorder is in MP4 or 3GP format. live555 cannot able to stream both. But it can stream audio if I recorded it only in 'RAW_AMR' format. Since live555 support 'mpg' format for streaming, I decided to put someone in middle who can convert 'mp4' or '3gp' to 'mpg', and I chose ffmpeg.
I have ported live555 and ffmpeg to android. ffmpeg is able to convert the file recorded by MediaRecorder once it is finished. But the problem is that ffmpeg cannot be able to do it concurrently. That is, ffmpeg is not able to convert the file while recording. It shows an Operation not permitted error. I tried the same on my linux machine, using VLC to record instead of MediaRecorder on android. The result is same. ffmpeg is able to convert once the recording is finished, and not able to do the same while recording.
Here is the ffmpeg command I issued on my linux box:
ffmpeg -v 9 -loglevel 99 -i test.mp4 test.mpg
Where test.mp4 is the file to which VLC is recording in mp4 format. and test.mpg is my destination file. The following is the output by ffmpeg on terminal.

Would anyone please tell me what is causing the problem? Or is the scenario above is possible by ffmpeg. That is, is ffmpeg is able to do the conversion at the same time as that of recording? If it is not possible by ffmpeg, would you please suggest any alternative solutions?
NOTE: I am putting a C tag because if it possible by some tweaking in C on ffmpeg, I am ready to do that(I want the solution that badly). But please provide some pointers to the right direction.
Both 3gp and mp4 formats include moov atom (chunk of data) that is written when the file is finalized. Until then the file is incomplete.
You can use FLV as the "middle" format. Other formats that support live streaming can be used too. Option -re may be helpful to tell encoder to run at the stream rate, if needed.
See also Is it possible to play an output video file from an encoder as it's being encoded?.
I want to use the RTP data structures (e.g. RTPMuxContext in libavformat/rtpenc.h) provided by FFmpeg's libavformat however they don't seem to be available with the following install:

I'd like to achieve this by dynamic linking to the FFmpeg libraries (for LGPL compliance, among other reasons), but it doesn't seem to be possible.
Is there a parameter for the configure script that I'm missing, or a post-installation step that I've neglected?
You can just include the rtpenc.h header from its existing location in the ffmpeg source directory. Since that header doesn't produce any object code your resulting binary won't be a derivative work of the ffmpeg library, but if you want you could just write a compatible structure definition in your own code and access the ffmpeg structure with a pointer/variable defined using your own definition.
Be careful because that structure is not a publicly-facing component of ffmpeg and is likely to change without warning in different versions.
