Peronsally I used ffmpeg to convert raw avi files i made with OBS as my computer is slow and I cannot usually convert on the fly while playing more demanding games yet with time i discovered that it offers so much more and done some basic video editing with it. Just discovered your channel and it rocks, yet i believe i cannot really go without OBS as my input overlay is for OBS and i do not know any good alternative that works as a standalone program. Yet it is super fun to know how to do all that stuff with ffmpeg. No questions if it can be done as ffmpeg can do a lot.
Can you make a video making a c program that can target an application window and redirect the windows' composition in x11 and record that window only using FFmpeg, like how obs, chrome, or basically every other application records only the window? I'm asking this because When ever I ask online to do this task I usually get a response to record the whole window and crop to the specific area and keep the area clean of other application and also not to move the targeted application, personally this feels very janky.
Dear Bryce Vandegrift, I had build Video application Assuming that, i have 1000 client downloading video at the same time. Now, i should use which tool to test download my app from client to measure performance and load of server Thanks.
I am using an unofficial aarch64 port of Arch GNU/Linux. I knew FFMPEG since 5th grade and it was great. I also used FFMPEG to interpret raw data as video data. However it is a little bit confusing, X11GRAB is not found, how to fix that? Its also not found when I run pacman -S x11grab. Please help
x11grab only works if you system is using x11, you check it using "echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE" if it says "x11" then it should work, if it says "wayland" then you should replace "x11grab" with "wlgrab" or if your system is using something else you can search for it on internet
@@brycevandegrift could you tell me what options you use? I use mpv /dev/video0 and it is always way too laggy to be used and also the fps is stuck at 10
Enjoyed the video. However, try not saying the word "actually" so much. I can't count how many times you said it. Try not using that word at all. It is superfluous just like when EVERYONE is saying "literally" nowadays. It's a bad habit and annoying. Thanks.
Most useful and underrated tool - ffmpeg
Thank you for the tutorial, I got three hours to make a presentation on my thesis now. wish me luck
Finished with two hours to spare 😎
Finally!! A video on ffmpeg that is actually useful and easy to learn. Loved it, make a series out of it.
Great video on ffmpeg. Shows the power of this FOSS software.
Very helpful! I just needed an overview to get started.
Great video! I need to experiment with ffmpeg more

Great video! Helped me setup my recording setup.
Quick question: how do you record output sound? E.g. game sound or a video played on PC.
You can find documentation for that here if you use PulseAudio: trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/Capture/PulseAudio

ffmpeg is comfy.
How can we have it set to automatically play multiple live streams of pre recorded videos on specific times without our intervention?
Did u figure it out? Maybe ChatGPT can help.

how about recording desktop audio with ffmpeg + alsa? i.e, record a song playing from your desktop

It is also good for live streaming
is it? can you elaborate? that's my usecase...
How do you get that live webcam while screen recording? Is it ffplay?
I use mpv to open my webcam as a window (with a few extra settings).

@@arnabbanik6403 This is what I use: git.sr.ht/~bpv/dotfiles/tree/master/item/.local/bin/webcam
btw i love your videos, but can you make some videos about openage?
What is Openage?
ffplay is also pretty snazzy. 😎
can't forget ffprobe too 🔥
x.265 and x.264, are a couple of the more common video codecs.
this is huge
Now if you know how to add to the audio input (microphone) some compressor, limiter, equalizer filters using ffmpeg, I will quit OBS altogether, 😀
FFmpeg does have compressor, limiter, and equalizer filters.
