Hi there 👋

ffmpegmediametadataretriever's Issues

not getting some metadata

Hi, I wanted to fetch metadata which gives the current song title.

FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever mmr = new FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever();
            mmr.setDataSource("http://stream.radiozu.ro:8020/");
            mmr.extractMetadata(FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever.METADATA_KEY_ALBUM);
            mmr.extractMetadata(FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever.METADATA_KEY_ALBUM_ARTIST);
            mmr.extractMetadata(FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever.METADATA_KEY_DURATION);
            mmr.extractMetadata(FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever.METADATA_KEY_ICY_METADATA);
            mmr.extractMetadata(FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever.METADATA_KEY_TITLE);
            mmr.extractMetadata(FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever.METADATA_KEY_ARTIST);
            mmr.extractMetadata(FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever.METADATA_KEY_AUDIO_CODEC);
            mmr.extractMetadata(FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever.METADATA_KEY_DISC);
            mmr.extractMetadata(FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever.METADATA_KEY_FILENAME);
            mmr.extractMetadata(FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever.METADATA_KEY_FRAMERATE);
            mmr.extractMetadata(FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever.METADATA_KEY_GENRE);
            mmr.extractMetadata(FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever.METADATA_KEY_TRACK);

unfortunately, I'm not getting current song tite, listener peak, stream status. Here is my output:

And after that there is a NullPointer because of unparsed meta information about duration of the media file. File is ok, tried to use default MediaMetadataRetriever and it gets duration successfully. Could you please advice what the problem can be? Thanks.

Getting null value for METADATA_KEY_VIDEO_ROTATION

I am trying to get metadata of Video file.

METADATA_KEY_CREATION_TIME and other information is working fine.

METADATA_KEY_VIDEO_ROTATION is returning null .

I am testing on Samsung Galaxy S4 [Android 4.4.2].

Thanks,

Define a method with params (width, height)

Thanks for The great share~
if this method follow exist：
getFrameAtTime(long time, int width, int height, int options);
it will be help for me~

Fetch file size

It would be cool if I could get also file size.

setDataSource crashes if url is https

I'm trying to extract metadata from a remote video source. Everything's working as long as the url is http, but it crashes if url is https.

not getting correct rotation attribute

When I run

ffmpeg -i "myvideofile.mp4"

I'm able to see the rotate value of the video (in this case, 90). However, when I use FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever and attempt to get the rotation of the video using the following:

FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever fmmr = new FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever();
fmmr.setDataSource(http_mediaURL);
String rotation = fmmr.extractMetadata(FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever.METADATA_KEY_VIDEO_ROTATION);

I get "null" Any insights on why I'm not getting the right rotation value?

You can run the test with the following file:

Why not loading library with .loadLibrary?

From the first the first commit on you do something like this when loading the native libraries:

• you get the stacktrace of the application
• try to find the .so files in the /data/data/packagename/lib folder of every package in stacktrace
• if the .so files were not found, a UnsatisfiedLinkExeption is thrown
  Wouldn't it be easier and more efficent to just use the System.loadLibrary-method?

the static-method would look like this:

static {
    for (int i = 0; i < JNI_LIBRARIES.length; i++) {
        System.loadLibrary(JNI_LIBRARIES[i]);
    }
}

in the JNI_LIBRARIES array the "lib" and ".so" has to be removed

private static final String [] JNI_LIBRARIES = {
    "avutil",
    "swscale",
    "avcodec",
    "avformat",
    "ffmpeg_mediametadataretriever_jni"     
};

I wouldn't have recognized it, if there weren't these problems with a libraryproject using your library and getting an UnsatisfiedLinkExeption all the time because your method for loading the .so files seems not to be able to find the right lib folder.

IllegalArgumentException: setDataSource failed: status = 0xFFFFFFFF

when i set the youtube video url ,not web page url like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxxx, but the real play url extracted with http://en.savefrom.net . it gives IllegalArgumentException: setDataSource failed: status = 0xFFFFFFFF.
but i can play this url use MediaPlayer.setDataSource

Refresh metadatas from FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever object.

Hi,

How can I update the metadatas retrived by FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever object, initialized with a streming flow (http:://...), without create a new instance of FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever every time?

Thanks,

load video from res/raw

Hi,

it seems that loading a video from the raw folder (like Uri.parse("android.resource://" + getPackageName() + "/" + R.raw.video) is not working (I can't extract any data, I always get null). But if I move the video into /sdcard/Download, then it's working. Is it a known issue?

thanks

Crashing after repeated use

I am having trouble with getFrameAt crashing after several uses. I have managed to reduce the issue to the minimal code that causes this, which I will copy below.

This program logs finished 3 times and then crashes, and this behaviour is repeatable. This causes me problems because I need to use the extractor several times. There is no error log in eclipse logcat the app simple exits midway through. It always reaches "extracting frame" log, but then fails to reach the "extracting frame done" log. So the error must be in the getFrameAtTime line.

I am using a Samsung Nexus S. The function is running in a background AsyncTask.

Your support is greatly appreciated. Please let me know if you need more details.

private void testExtractor() {
    for(int j=0;j<8;j++){
        FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever mediaMetadataRetriever = new FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever();

        File directory  = new File(Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(Environment.DIRECTORY_PICTURES),"Videos");
        if (!directory.exists()) {
          Log.d("test", "Can't open video.");
        }
        String videoFile = "video0080.mp4";
        String filename = directory.getPath() + File.separator + videoFile;

        mediaMetadataRetriever.setDataSource(filename);

        Bitmap b;
        long frameTime;
        float timeStep=(float)5000/36.0f;
        for(int index=0;index<36;index++) {

            frameTime=(long)(timeStep*index*1000.0f);
            Log.d("test", "extracting frame" + frameTime);
            b=mediaMetadataRetriever.getFrameAtTime(frameTime,FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever.OPTION_CLOSEST);
            Log.d("test", "extracting frame" + frameTime + "done");
        }
        Log.d("test", "finished");
        mediaMetadataRetriever.release();
    }
}

cannot get meta data from a sample movie

Hi, I am new to android and I am extracting frames from a sample movie in the asset folder that is of format mp4. I installed the ffmpeg where fmmr.jar in the libs folder and the .so files in the /main/src/jniLibs folder. I am testing it on samsung galaxy note 4 phone.

my code is as the following
metaRetriver = new FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever();
AssetFileDescriptor afd = getResources().getAssets().openFd("sampleMovie.mp4");

       // afd = getResources().getAssets().openFd("sampleMovie.mp4");

         String[] ma= getResources().getAssets().list("");
         for( int i =0; i < ma.length; ++i)
         {
         Log.i(TAG,ma[i]);
         }

        metaRetriver.setDataSource(afd.getFileDescriptor(),afd.getStartOffset(),afd.getLength());
        Log.i(TAG, "movie starts at " + afd.getStartOffset() + " with length "+ afd.getLength());
        millis =(int) Long.parseLong(metaRetriver.extractMetadata(FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever.METADATA_KEY_DURATION));
        now = 0;
        Log.i(TAG, "movie is " + millis + " millisecond longs");
        Log.i(TAG, "movie is " + metaRetriver.extractMetadata(FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever.METADATA_KEY_DURATION) + " millisecond longs");
        Log.i(TAG, "movie file size is " + metaRetriver.extractMetadata(FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever.METADATA_KEY_FILESIZE));
        Log.i(TAG, "movie video codec is" + metaRetriver.extractMetadata(FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever.METADATA_KEY_VIDEO_CODEC));
        Log.i(TAG, "movie frame rate is " + metaRetriver.extractMetadata(FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever.METADATA_KEY_FRAMERATE));
        Log.i(TAG, "movie chapter start time is" + metaRetriver.extractMetadata(FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever.METADATA_KEY_CHAPTER_START_TIME));

the result I got from the log

the program obviously found the movie file. but the metadataretriever is not getting the data. did I load the .so file wrong?

Is HLS stream (.m3u8) supported?

Hello, I'm trying to play HLS stream. I'm using demo example and I have problems with getFrames from almost all streams. Please notice, that some streams are in HD res. For example the only working stream is:

http://devimages.apple.com/iphone/samples/bipbop/gear1/prog_index.m3u8

When I trying to get frame from:
"http://qthttp.apple.com.edgesuite.net/1010qwoeiuryfg/sl.m3u8
I get error:

Adding Maven Readme

Hi,

i am using Android-Studio, how is the easiest way to use FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever with Maven Repo?

Update for FFMPEG 2.2

UPDATED: Workś fine without changing source, and used prebuilt library compiled in version 2.2

getFrameAtTime issues

I think writing an FFmpeg based MediaMetadataRetriever is a fantastic idea and I would like to use it but I think there are bugs in the getFrameAtTime command.

1). On an mp4 video of resolution 720x480, on a Nexus S phone, to get a frame at 1000 milliseconds I need to use a 'timeUs' of 300 x 1000 milliseconds, (I would expect to multiply by 1000 to go from milliseconds to microseconds). On a FHD video, on a Samsung S4 I need to multiply by 150 to get the correct frame.

2). It takes a long time to extract a frame (prohibitively long for me). For a 20 second mp4 at 720x480 resolution, it takes about 10 seconds per extracted frame on a Nexus S, whereas similar android FFmpeg based extractors (such as https://github.com/churnlabs/android-ffmpeg-sample, or FFmpeg4android) take about 75 milliseconds per frame.

Apart from this it works very well.

Please advise.

Let me know if you need more information.

First time it take image but next time it do not work.

When I am click to take video image then first time it work good but when i click same button next time to take image then it do not give any image.

I need to image after every 1 minute but i give image first minute. After next minute it do not work yet.

https protocal is supported or not?

Hi,

I have video's in amazon server,below is the sample url format
https://s3.amazonaws.com/XXXXX/filename.h264.
my requirement is getting the first frame of the video, is it possible to get first frame using your library? i am using the http in my video url it successfully get the first frame.but my video url's are https.
how to get first frame using https protocal?

Thanks

getFrameAtTime always return null

Hello,

I need to grab the last frame of the video in my VideoView, what i am doing is the following:

// get the time
int endTime = vidView.getDuration() * 1000;

//get the last frame
FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever fmmr = new FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever();
fmmr .setDataSource(videoSource);
Bitmap bmFrame = fmmr.getFrameAtTime(endTime, FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever.OPTION_CLOSEST);
System.out.println("bmFrame: " + bmFrame); // <- NULL
fmmr.release();

videoSource is something like:
"/storage/sdcard0/folder/folder/video.mp4"

I have extracted the libs and jar from where and i have put it in my libs.
https://github.com/wseemann/FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever/blob/master/fmmr-library/prebuilt-libs.tar.gz

My /libs folder contains the following 4 folders and the jar:
-armeabi
-armeabi-v7a
-mips
-x86
fmmr.jar

(= is it btw necassary to have all 4 folders? Because this makes my .apk like 30mb+ ...)

Is this still a bug or am i doing something wrong?
Thanks

possible native memmory leak

i noticed i have a native memmory related crash while using the library.
each call to setDataSource & getFrameAtTime allocates several MB from the native heap.
calling release() does not free it.

i use this code to check the memory related crash:
for(int i=0 ; i<60 ; i++){
Log.d("","iteration "+i);
printNativeMemoryHeapAllocationSize();
fmmr = new FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever();
printNativeMemoryHeapAllocationSize();

        String pathToFile = "/mnt/sdcard/movie.mp4";
        fmmr.setDataSource(pathToFile);
        printNativeMemoryHeapAllocationSize();
        Bitmap bmp = fmmr.getFrameAtTime(1000);
        printNativeMemoryHeapAllocationSize();      
        fmmr.release();
        bmp.recycle();
        System.gc();
        printNativeMemoryHeapAllocationSize();          
    }

private void printNativeMemoryHeapAllocationSize(){
    Log.d("memory test","native heap alloc size: "+Debug.getNativeHeapAllocatedSize());
}

am i doing something wrong?

This maybe generates the VM aborting Fatal signal 11 (SIGSEGV) at 0xdeadd00d (code=1), thread 7133, that making my app crash.

How I can fix this issue. I try to put the call of extractMetadata(...) method in a try/catch block. but no exception is raised.

Thank you very much for your help.

framerate detection does not work with avi

I expirienced that your detection of the average framerate does not work with avis. Could there be a problem with different codecs in your code?

FYI
I get back null of this:
String frameRateString = this.fmmr.extractMetadata(FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever.METADATA_KEY_FRAMERATE);

ARGB_8888 getFrameAt

One of the deficiencies of MediaMetadataRetriever was that the getFrameAt function could only retrieve frame data at RGB_565 quality even though it seems 24 bit colour information exists in the video.

Would you be able to add an option/ flag that enables ARGB_8888 still images to be retrieved?

Sometimes frames are rotated

When I used this lib, the frames from getFrameAtTime() were rotated sometimes.

Hi,

for people using Android Studio and gradle, the .so should be under /src/main/jniLibs/armeabi/. If you put them somewhere else, you'll get an UnsatisfiedLinkError exception.

Can not get metadata for audio

Hello,

I tried to get metadata for mp3, mp2 file, but the error was taken at set_data_source.

Can you check it or I need to configure some place to make it work.

getFrameAtTime always returns null

I used the pre-built jar files with Android Gradle system.
I put the jar file in the libs folder and the armeabi, armeabi-v7a, mips and x86 folder under
src/main/jnilibs/

So I have a very simple demo application and I'm trying to fetch frames from a video picked from gallery. But getFrameAtTime always returns null regardless of what the time is. I can fetch the metadata (I think the metadata is being rounded to the nearest thousand) Any ideas?

FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever mmr = new FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever();
File file = new File(getPath(videoPath));
FileInputStream inputStream = new FileInputStream(file);
mmr.setDataSource(inputStream.getFD());
String time = mmr.extractMetadata(FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever.METADATA_KEY_DURATION);
Bitmap test = mmr.getFrameAtTime(1000000, FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever.OPTION_CLOSEST_SYNC);

Get list of I-Frame Times

I've been reading the source code for a while now and have not found a method for retrieving a list of I-Frame times. Basically, I am trying to restrict the times that can be input to mediaPlayer.seekTo(int) based off the I-Frame times. Is this currently possible? If not currently possible, could it be possible in the future?

getFrameAtTime returning the same frame

Hello,

What I'm trying to do, is capture a video and then play it frame-by-frame.
The way I decided to do this is load the video into your library, and using a SeekBar change the "Preview" image.

The first problem I encountered was the duration I received was always 0. After playing around with this for a little bit, I found that the library returns only duration in multiplications of a thousand. (0-1000-2000-etc).

When I try getting frames using getFrameAtTime - I get the same frame and not actual frames from the video.

At first I thought the problem was relating to the video being time lapsed (using setCaptureRate) - but after removing this option it didn't change much.
When pulling the video to my computer it plays fine and recognized as MPEG format.

What could be the problem?

Here is the extraction code:

// Set the media player with the video
final FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever metadataRetriever =
        new FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever();
final SeekBar videoSeek = (SeekBar) view.findViewById(R.id.video_seek);
videoSeek.bringToFront();

Log.d(TAG, mMediaFilepath);
metadataRetriever.setDataSource(mMediaFilepath);
String duration = metadataRetriever
        .extractMetadata(FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever.METADATA_KEY_DURATION);

Log.d(TAG, "Duration = " + duration);
mediaPreview.setImageBitmap(metadataRetriever.getFrameAtTime(0));

videoSeek.setMax(Integer.parseInt(duration));

// Set the seek bar actions
videoSeek.setOnSeekBarChangeListener(new SeekBar.OnSeekBarChangeListener() {
    @Override
    public void onProgressChanged(SeekBar seekBar, int progress,
                                  boolean fromUser) {
        Bitmap bm2 = metadataRetriever.getFrameAtTime();
        Bitmap bm = metadataRetriever.getFrameAtTime(progress,
                FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever.OPTION_CLOSEST);
        if (bm == null || bm2 == null) {
            Log.e(TAG, "bm is null");
        }
        mediaPreview.setImageBitmap(bm);
    }

    @Override
    public void onStartTrackingTouch(SeekBar seekBar) {
    }

    @Override
    public void onStopTrackingTouch(SeekBar seekBar) {
    }
});

One thing to note:
the function never return's a null value - just the same bitmap all over again.

Thank you,
Ron.

Upload project to Maven Central

It would be great to have this library on Maven Central. There is an easy guide how to do that with gradle http://zserge.com/blog/gradle-maven-publish.html

Use InputStream as data source

Would it be possible at all to make this able to accept an InputStream (not FileInputStream) as the data source?

I'm trying to produce thumbnails for files stored on a remote server (not HTTP or any other protocol accessible via a URL), while downloading as little of each file as possible. The actual remote server connection could be one of several different types, but I can get them all to provide an InputStream for each file.

(I would have a go at implementing this myself, if it wasn't for all the NDK business) :/

Thanks :)

ExceptionInInitiliazerError

I'm having issues using your library in eclipse. I tried incorporating it in two ways:

1. adding ffmr.jar to my libs folder

this leads to the error ExceptionInItializerError when I try to run the following line:
FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever fmmr = new FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever();

2. adding ffmr.jar to my libs folder and adding ffmr-library to my application's libraries (by going to properties > android > add... and adding the appropriate library)

When I do this, the program fails to build and I get the error Unable to execute dex: Multiple dex files define Lwseemann/media/FFmpegMediaMetadataRetriever;

How can I resolve these issues?
