My experiments are based on the latest release of FFMPEG (at the time of writing 0.11.1 "Happiness"). Now let's look into how FFMPEG fits into this picture. Using a buffer in this way is quite common. Similarly a buffer is used on the receiving end to decode the MPEG2 stream. In order to generate a CBR stream a buffer is used to "even out" the variable bit rate into a somewhat constant bit rate. MPEG2 in its initial form will always be a stream with variable bit rate, VBR. But why are people in the TV biz talking about CBR MPEG2? This needed some research and I discovered that my assumption was not totally wrong. This is a bit odd to begin with since as far as I know there is no such thing as a CBR MPEG2. In the same time the material transferred is in most cases MPEG2 video (at least here in Sweden). I won't go into the details of DVB-T modulation but this is quite reasonable since it is most likely the only way of keeping it in sync and locked. Generating a stable stream without errors and dropouts was definitely harder than I initially thought.ĭVB muxers (or shall we call them modulators?) need to run at a constant bit rate, CBR. These streams are to be received by Telesté Luminato boxes equipped with DVB-T muxes. The streams are to be created in real-time and encapsulated in MPEG-TS and sent over an Ethernet network using multicast UDP. to see diagnostic information about FFmpeg detection.I have been trying to generate MPEG2 streams using FFMPEG for a cable TV project I'm working on. You can also choose Help > Diagnostics > Show Log. button to obtain the correct library for your operating system. If you still see "not found", you may have installed the wrong libraries. Note that the FFmpeg library has been locatedįFmpeg Library Version should now show a set of three version numbers for the sub-libraries of FFmpeg ("F" for libavformat version, "C" for libavcodec version and "U" for libavutil version).Navigate to the folder that contains FFmpeg and select the file " ffmpeg.55.64bit.dylib".If the " Locate FFmpeg" dialog appears, click Browse.If a " Success" message indicates Audacity has now automatically detected valid FFmpeg libraries and asks if you want to detect them manually, click No, then OK to close Preferences.To do this, access Preferences then the " Libraries" tab on the left:Īs in the image above, the "FFmpeg Library Version" will say " FFmpeg library not found". If you installed FFmpeg while Audacity was running, or if you installed FFmpeg to a non-default location, Audacity will ask you to configure Preferences to locate the FFmpeg library.
