Header inconsistencies for a certain range of video bit rate

Description

Hi,

I am trying to transcode from any format (.mkv, .avi, .m4v, etc) to this format: XVID avi.

I am seeing a problem that I did not see reported before (I googled a lot but did not find anything that closely match my problem).

I have been using the Mac OS X Tessus standalone builds 1.2.1 and 2.1.0 and both have the same problem.

The input file and format does not really matter, I tried with various and still see the same problem.

The problem: For a certain RANGE of video rate, the output file has (apparently) some header inconsistencies (wrong lengths/sizes for the audio and/or video streams).

The symptoms: On my Philips DVD Player DVP 3680, when I play the file, I first see the 0%-100% loading message twice (it should be seen only once), then if I play the file, it stops playing after a certain mark (roughly 1GB). Also, if I try to fast forward, I can go until the end, but if I try to play after that certain mark, the file won't play.

Additionally, if I use the GUI version of MediaInfo Mac 0.7.36.0, I can see the inconsistencies mentioned above. If I use the CLI mediainfo 0.7.64, I do not see those inconsistencies. If I use ffmpeg -v 9 -loglevel 99 -i, I do not see any inconsistencies either.

Furthermore, ALL files play correctly in VLC.

The Tests:

First, I thought that this problem was the infamous 1GB avi limit issue but it is not so as my tests below reveal.

For any 1 hour 40 minutes 720x400 movie (I tried with both an XVID .avi and a x264 .m4v, like mentioned before, the source does not matter):

ffmpeg -i DIT.avi -c:v mpeg4 -vtag XVID -b:v 1300k -r 23.976 -c:a ac3 -b:a 128k -ar 48000 -ac 2 D_1300.avi

ffmpeg -i DIT.avi -c:v mpeg4 -vtag XVID -b:v 1350k -r 23.976 -c:a ac3 -b:a 128k -ar 48000 -ac 2 D_1350.avi

ffmpeg -i DIT.avi -c:v mpeg4 -vtag XVID -b:v 1900k -r 23.976 -c:a ac3 -b:a 128k -ar 48000 -ac 2 D_1900.avi

ffmpeg -i DIT.avi -c:v mpeg4 -vtag XVID -b:v 2000k -r 23.976 -c:a ac3 -b:a 128k -ar 48000 -ac 2 D_2000.avi

The files encoded at 1300k (or below) are fine.
The files encoded from 1350k to 1900k are incorrect.
The files encoded at 2000k (and above, ie. 2100k) are fine.

D_1300.avi is 1.00GB with a 927MB video stream and a 92MB audio stream.
D_2000.avi is 1.49GB with a 1.39GB video stream and a 92MB audio stream.

For any 2 hours 11 minutes 720x304 movie (I tried with 2 different x264 .m4v):

ffmpeg -i PR.m4v -c:v mpeg4 -vtag XVID -b:v 900k -r 23.976 -c:a ac3 -b:a 128k -ar 48000 -ac 2 P_900.avi

ffmpeg -i PR.m4v -c:v mpeg4 -vtag XVID -b:v 1000k -r 23.976 -c:a ac3 -b:a 128k -ar 48000 -ac 2 P_1000.avi

ffmpeg -i PR.m4v -c:v mpeg4 -vtag XVID -b:v 1900k -r 23.976 -c:a ac3 -b:a 128k -ar 48000 -ac 2 P_1900.avi

ffmpeg -i PR.m4v -c:v mpeg4 -vtag XVID -b:v 2000k -r 23.976 -c:a ac3 -b:a 128k -ar 48000 -ac 2 P_2000.avi

The files encoded at 900k (or below) are fine.
The files encoded from 1000k to 1900k are incorrect.
The files encoded at 2000k (and above, ie. 2100k) are fine.

Fine means that file will play on the DVD Player and the GUI MediaInfo reports correct values for the Streams Lengths and Sizes.
Incorrect means that the file will not play beyond a certain mark and the GUI MediaInfo reports incorrect values for the Streams Lengths and/or Sizes.

P_900.avi is 975MB with a 844MB video stream and a 120MB audio stream.
P_2000.avi is 1.96GB with a 1.83GB video stream and a 120MB audio stream.

You will see below the info generated by ffmpeg -v 9 -loglevel 99 -i for P_1900.avi and P_2000.avi, as well as the info generated by mediainfo CLI for the same files. Except for the names and bitrates, there are no differences between those files.

However, when I inspect P_2000.avi with the GUI MediaInfo, it shows the same values for Video and Audio Stream Size than its CLI counterpart, but when I inspect P_1900.avi with the GUI MediaInfo, it presents a wrong Audio Stream Size (58MB instead of 120) and a wrong Audio Stream Length (1h 3mn instead of 2h 11mn).

When I inspect P_1000.avi with the GUI MediaInfo, it presents a wrong Video Stream Size (74MB instead of 938) and Audio Stream Size (4MB instead of 120) but both Stream Lengths are presented correctly (2h 11mn).

My theory (but I'm not certain...): This leads me to think that there might be a file header issue. Each Stream has its own header and that header is correct and is the one that is being dumped by ffmpeg or mediainfo, but there might be a general file header that should contain redundant information and this header is incorrect and is the one being dumped by the MediaInfo GUI, and used (unfortunately) by my DVD Player...

Additional notes:

Using libmp3lame instead of ac3 makes thing worse, both D_MP3_1700.avi and D_MP3_2000.avi are incorrect.

I hope that this is detailed enough for you to figure out what is happening.

Regards,
Toshiro

To make this a valid ticket, please test current git head and please provide the command line together with the complete, uncut console output for the failing command (that is the command that produces the file that cannot be played).

Is the problem only reproducible using an external library (libxvid) or also with the native ASP encoder: -vcodec mpeg4?

And please test if this isn't just related to the filesize:

$ ffmpeg -f lavfi -i testsrc=s=720x576 -qscale 2 -fs 900M outhighbitrate.avi
$ ffmpeg -f lavfi -i testsrc=s=720x576 -qscale 20 -fs 2300M outlowbitrate.avi

Thanks for taking a look.

I'm not sure I can build and test the current git head. I usually only download the Mac OS X Tessus standalone builds. Since the problem is in both 1.2.1 and 2.1.0, I doubt that this is a recent bug and it's most likely present in the current hit head.

The original testing described in the bug report was done with -c:v mpeg4. I did further testing using -c:v libxvid as you suggested and the results are the same (good for 2000k and bad for 1900k) so this does not seem to be associated with any video encoder. Since I had also tested both MP3 and AC3, this does not seem to be associated with any audio encoder either.
I believe that it's the container header that is trashed for a certain range of video bitrate, not the streams headers themselves.

I created the 2 test files outhighbitrate.avi and outlowbitrate.avi and while the GUI version of MediaInfo Mac 0.7.36.0 does not detect any issues, I can only play correctly outhighbitrate.avi on my DVD Player as outlowbitrate.avi makes it freeze.

You asked for the complete uncut console output so please find it below. I already compared it and could not find any smoking gun there.
