Then, run ffmpeg: ffmpeg -f concat -i list.txt -c copy out.mp4ĭelay video by 3.84 seconds: ffmpeg -i in.mp4 -itsoffset 3.84 -i in.mp4 -map 1:v -map 0:a -vcodec copy -acodec copy out.mp4ĭelay audio by 3.84 seconds: ffmpeg -i in.mp4 -itsoffset 3.84 -i in.mp4 -map 0:v -map 1:a -vcodec copy -acodec copy out.mp4 See the -map option documentation for more info.The -shortest option will cause the output duration to match the duration of the shortest input stream.If you want to re-encode, see FFmpeg Wiki: H.264 Encoding Guide. With -c copy the streams will be stream copied, not re-encoded, so there will be no quality loss.To copy the video from in0.mp4 and audio from in1.mp4: ffmpeg -i in0.mp4 -i in1.mp4 -c copy -map 0:0 -map 1:1 -shortest out.mp4 For high quality video and audio, read the x264 Encoding Guide and the AAC Encoding Guide, respectively.įor example: ffmpeg -ss -i in.mp4 -t -c:v libx264 -c:a aac -strict experimental -b:a 128k out.mp4 If you leave out the -c copy option, ffmpeg will automatically re-encode the output video and audio according to the format you chose. This won't harm the quality and make the command run within seconds. -c copy copies the first video, audio, and subtitle bitstream from the input to the output file without re-encoding them.Recent ffmpeg also has a flag to supply the end time with -to.-t specifies the duration of the clip (same format).Without re-encoding: ffmpeg -ss -i in.mp4 -t -c copy out.mp4 Additional info: ffmpeg -i in.mp4 -preset slower -crf 18 out.mp4 Use the preset parameter to control the speed of the compression process. The default value is 23, and visually lossless compression corresponds to -crf 18. The lower crf, the higher the quality (range: 0-51). Use the crf (Constant Rate Factor) parameter to control the output quality. Remux an MKV file into MP4 ffmpeg -i in.mkv -c:v copy -c:a copy out.mp4
