it happens every time . 

Thanks a ton for you help in advance. 

[Carl Eugen Hoyos]

Please provide the input sample.

Is the problem also reproducible with "-an"?
Is the problem also reproducible if you remove the scale filter?

[Gerry]

HI ,

Thanks for reply. I will test it without scale and with -an disable audio both. and let you know results. Also one important point is that its happening on one machine and working on other.

Machine on which it hangs is having window 7 professional sp1 , 64 bit with i7 3930k processor.

its pretty strange. I let you know more info after my tests.

Thanks
Gerry

Is a specific input sample required to reproduce the hang, or does it also hang if you use ffmpeg -f lavfi -i testsrc as input?

[Gerry]

HI,

I apologize for reply late on this.

The ffmpeg command as written above is making ffmpeg crash on window7 the command fire is below

ffmpeg -f lavfi -i testsrc

This sounds very important, could you elaborate on "crash"?

Hi,

thanks for replying. can you please let me know what you need from the crash any debug info how to get it. I will post it accordingly.

The last line in your output is At least one output file must be specified
This implies a normal program termination, so my question was why do you think a crash happened: Did Windows show some crash report window?

[Gerry]

HI

i have another finding on my other machine that ffmpeg hangs while converting the below video ( link provided) .

the ffmpeg hangs while using this command

ffmpeg.exe -i "test_hb1200_7-3-13.mp4" -v debug -vcodec libx264 -vprofile baseline -b 480k -y -vf scale=480:270 "test_hb1200_7-3-13-480.mp4"

Replying to gerrysingh7:

i have another finding

Yesterday you reported a crash which sounds important and needs more information. It makes following tickets much easier if you do not report different (and changing) issues in one ticket.

the ffmpeg hangs while using this command

ffmpeg.exe -i "test_hb1200_7-3-13.mp4" -v debug -vcodec libx264 -vprofile baseline -b 480k -y -vf scale=480:270 "test_hb1200_7-3-13-480.mp4"

Complete, uncut console output missing.

Could you confirm again that this command hangs (reproducible) on one hardware but works fine on another one? What is different about them? The CPU?

[Gerry]

hi

details about system on which it hangs

OS : win 7 professional service pack 1
processor : Intel(R) core(TM) i7 3930k CPU @3.20Ghz 3.80 Ghz
RAM : 32.0 GB
System Type: 64-bit

[Carl Eugen Hoyos]

Is the crash also reproducible if you use -f lavfi -i testsrc as input?

[Gerry]

HI

Thanks for you help on this issue. We have tested the hang its happening on the one machine but passing on other.

on machine one which ffmpeg hangs has following configuration

OS: Windows 7 professional
Processor: Intel(R) Core (TM ) i7-3930K CPU @ 3.20 GHz 3.80GHz
Installed Memory : 32 GB

System type : 64-bit operating system

i have already send you the command which hangs on this system. Please help us out why ffmpeg hangs on the command while converting video.

Command which hangs:
ffmpeg.exe -i "test_hb1200_7-3-13.mp4" -v debug -vcodec libx264 -vprofile baseline -b 480k -y -vf scale=480:270 "test_hb1200_7-3-13-480.mp4"

it stalled at around 40% some time 70% of video.

and on other system having window7 it works fine. that has intel i5 processor with window 7 professional. 64 bit os running.

This issue is hurting us a lot. So i request please let me know if any more input is required.

Thanks
Gerry

Does the stall also happen if you add -an to the command line?
Does the stall also happen if you remove the scale filter from the command line?
Does the stall also happen if you use -f lavfi -i testsrc as input instead of test_hb1200_7-3-13.mp4 ?

[Carl Eugen Hoyos]

Replying to cehoyos:

Trying to elaborate a little on why the following helps solving the problem:

Does the stall also happen if you add -an to the command line?

Theoretically, the problem may be audio-related, adding -an makes sure that the problem is not audio-related, so whenever a problem is reproducible with -an (or -vn), it should be added.

Does the stall also happen if you remove the scale filter from the command line?

The stall may (theoretically) happen because of the scaling, and generally, simpler (shorter) command lines are preferred.

Does the stall also happen if you use -f lavfi -i testsrc as input instead of test_hb1200_7-3-13.mp4 ?

If a problem is reproducible with -f lavfi -i testsrc (or -f lavfi -i smptehdbars), anybody interested can work on it without downloading a specific input file which always takes time.

[Gerry]

Thanks for reply, i am verifying it and will get back to you soon.

Thanks again.

[Gerry]

HI,

i tested the command with audio disable "-an" and 1 completed, and 3 stalled out. The stalls came at frames 22456, 64375, 76310. There seems to be no consistent point where it stalls.

In all tests, I renamed the output.mp4 file of the previous test so I did not have an output.mp4 file to overwrite.

i have given below the link to cmdoutput file for which conversion was unsuccessful, where the process stalled at frame 76310. It would appear that only the last 10,000 lines are saved by the CMD window, so I have no way to send you the complete output.

I monitored the CPU CPU usage for ffmpeg.exe during these tests. Normally the CPU usage for ffmpeg.exe during processing while the CMD window is updating is around 50%-60%. If the CMD window "pauses", the CPU usage for ffmpeg.exe goes up to 98%-99%. (By "pause" I means the CMD window temporarily does not advance, but does eventually continue.)

When the CMD window stalls out, the CPU usage for ffmpeg.exe goes to zero. I also included two screen shots of the Task Manager Processes, one with high usage and one with zero usage."

I hope that this tells us something useful. Please let me know ASAP what we can try next, as he really needs this resolved.

here is link to cmd output for the conversion that stalls.

Please let me know what we can do on this further.

Which command did you test?

[Gerry]

HI

This is command which u suggested try with disable audio while conversion
ffmpeg.exe -i "test_hb1200_7-3-13.mp4" -an -v debug -vcodec libx264 -vprofile baseline -b 480k -y -vf scale=480:270 "test_hb1200_7-3-13-480.

So please let me know what else we can do to get this issue resolved.

If you want to shorten the fruitless conversation, please run ​Memtest86 on the affected system for at least 12hours.

[Gerry]

HI,

if we remove the scale filter it does not stalled. it converts successfully

and if i use -f lavfi -i testsrc as input instead of testhb1200_7_3-3-13.mp4 then it says no such file or directory

Can u please let me know what u think on this what is cause of stalling.

I am waiting please help us solving this.

THanks

Replying to gerrysingh7:

Can u please let me know what u think on this what is cause of stalling.

Afaict, there are two possibilities:
Either a hardware defect or a problem with your x264 binary.
You can test the following command line to rule out the problem with x264:

$ ffmpeg -f lavfi -i testsrc -vcodec mpeg4 outasp.mp4

Hi,

Here is detail of test for command
$ ffmpeg -f lavfi -i testsrc -vcodec mpeg4 outasp.mp4

I ran the test, but only once before sending this message, as the test took an extremely long time to complete. After 3 hours, the test was still running, showing activity in the processes of my task manager. I left it running and went to bed. I checked it this morning and it had completed.

The output text file is massive and from what I can understand, the test processed nearly 15 Million frames.

The mp4 output file from this test was also huge, with a 13.7 GB size. This mp4 file was not playable.

Do these results make any sense? Let me know if you really need a second test."

Please lets us know any other test we can run .

I really appreciate all the help on this .

Thanks
GErry

Is the crash (without -vcodec mpeg4) also reproducible with a Zeranoe binary?
(Am I correct that so far you compiled yourself?)
