173 | vcs | General | TO-DO | Low | Switch to Bash 3 | Closed | |
1.12.3 |
Task Description
Bash 2 syntax has been the norm for most versions (although broken in some).
So far none of the major distributions is using bash 2, bash 4 is already gold but not widely-used enough.
Only a few special purpose/minimal distros like DSL retain bash 2.05b, but vcs requires recent versions of ImageMagick, Mplayer and FFmpeg anyway. I can’t see a reason to retain such backwards compatibility.

Task Description
Safe length measuring, when probing the video length, prints only the number of seconds and milliseconds, it would be better to display a more readable format.

Second, my dvd-drive is useless atm, but i remember previously piping dvd-ouput from mplayer into ffmpeg via a fifo and finding the info generated to be much better than mplayer-alone – for one thing, it won’t ‘downmix’ 6-channel audio automatically. Don’t know if that would be useful to you. The syntax was something like:-
mkfifo piped.vob && mplayer dvd:// -dumpstream -dumpfile piped.vob & \ ffmpeg -i piped.vob
…See what you think… ”

187 | vcs | General | Bug Report | Low | -U without argument fails | Closed | |
1.12.3 |
Task Description
Parsing of the “-U ” option (optional argument) is incorrect, it always receives an argument (empty if none provided) which must be shifted manually. Currently it’s only shifted if provided explicitly.
“–fullname ” is not affected since it doesn’t take any arguments.

http://outlyer.net/2014-05-18:vcs-1_13_2-released/comment-page-1/#comment-17238:
Thanks Toni. I was hoping I could simply run `$ vcs-1.13.2.bash -? **/*.mp4` to create contact sheets for all videos in all subfolders, but it sounds like I’ll have to use a wrapper script. Would you consider adding this in a future release for a donation?
My reply:
I guess you’re using zsh-ish globbing there.
That’s not something I use so I didn’t even think of the case where recursing could be so simple.
It was a bit of an overlook on my part not to have the option to output to the same directory as the video, probably because recursion always required a wrapper in my head.

Hi I am trying to thumbnail some HDR content is there anyway to insert ffmpeg filters in
-vf zscale=t=linear:npl=100,format=gbrpf32le,zscale=p=bt709,tonemap=tonemap=mobius:desat=0,zscale=t=bt709:m=bt709:r=tv,format=yuv420p
Thanks

I’m also trying to do some HDR content and pass the -vf info to ffmpeg. I can’t get it to work even using a wrapper script.
It always comes up with awk errors, starting with “unterminated regexp”.
Is there any chance of updating vcs to support manual passing of those -vf arguments to ffmpeg?
HDR content is very common nowadays…
https://outlyer.net/2017-05-26:vcs-1-13-3-released/#comment-32423
I’m using vcs 1.13.2 on ubuntu and ended up doing it by adding the line:
-vf ‘zscale=t=linear:npl=100,format=gbrpf32le,zscale=p=bt709,tonemap=tonemap=hable:desat=0,zscale=t=bt709:m=bt709:r=tv,format=yuv420p’ \
at line 2203, in the ffmpeg_capture() function where it sets the ffmpeg command line options.
Couldn’t work out how to do it with a wrapper script.

Would it be possible to somehow specify to only screenshot half of the video image (for 180 side-by-side VR videos)?
Or would this require new features to be added to the VCS?
