Why does ffmpeg batch file not work in run program?

[Harambulus]

I get the message that the program 'is not recognized as an internal or external command'.

The bat file works outside of zenno but not in zenno.

 

[LexxWork]

because bat file is not an application - it's a script
try run it as cmd /c уour_path_to_bat

 

[Harambulus]

No didnt work:

The given path's format is not supported:

cmd /c F:\fftest\fftest.bat

With my original code the batch file would run so I dont think its that, it would just not find the ffmpeg .exe to run that.

I have it in system 32 folder. I also tried showing full path to ffmpeg in the bat file and still doesnt work.

So to clarify the bat file works but the exe file within the bat doesnt work when run within zenno.

EDIT: ok now i get the exe to run with the code:

F:\ffmpeg\bin\ffmpeg.exe -i F:\fftest\%%01d.png -c:v libx264 -vf fps=25 -pix_fmt yuv420p fftest.mp4
pause

but it won't access the ffmpeg libraries. What now?

try to run bat file like this:

don't forget to specify "Running timeout" option

try to run bat file like this:

don't forget to specify "Running timeout" option

Tried it.

Exactly the same effect.

 

[LexxWork]

just to save your time - it will work only in c# snippet and and only with invoking ffmpeg directly.

 

[Harambulus]

Now anyone care to tell me what the c# code would be

 

[lokiys]

System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo p = new System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo();
p.WindowStyle = System.Diagnostics.ProcessWindowStyle.Minimized;
string batFile = project.Directory + @"\batfilename.bat";
p.FileName = batFile;
p.UseShellExecute = true;
p.CreateNoWindow = true;
var process = System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(p);

 

[Harambulus]

System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo p = new System.Diagnostics.ProcessStartInfo();
p.WindowStyle = System.Diagnostics.ProcessWindowStyle.Minimized;
string batFile = project.Directory + @"\batfilename.bat";
p.FileName = batFile;
p.UseShellExecute = true;
p.CreateNoWindow = true;
var process = System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(p);

Thanks but as the guy above said i need to run the exe directly not thru bat so need code for that.

 

[LexxWork]

this information was very important only for me so i deleted it

 

[lokiys]

don't run any bat if you have process without exit signal or with redirected std' or if your paths contains nonascii characters

@LexxWork As you can see OP is not much experienced therefore if you want to tell something then make sense to that he can understand...

@Harambulus I'm working with this code + bat file with ffmpeg and everything is working fine, you just have to write in bat file path to ffmpeg and call ffmpec command itself, no more spoon feeding.

Cheers

 

[Harambulus]

If I don't know the syntax of c# code and the slightest error will cause it not to work I wouldn't call it spoonfeeding...

Ok it runs without errors once i put it into project directory but still just like above it wont use the libraries so the shells shows it running but never actually encodes the video as it would in the normal command. So ffmpeg will run but will not access the libraries to encode with the code you gave above.

Here is my batfile:

F:\ffmpeg\bin\ffmpeg.exe -i F:\fftest\%%01d.png -c:v libx264 -vf fps=25 -pix_fmt yuv420p fftest.mp4
pause

as you see it is already calling ffmpeg from its directory.

It also creates an output but the file is empty.

 

[Harambulus]

YES YES YES!!!!!

Finally got it working!!!

and ended up running fine in run program.

There was some problem with the ffmpeg command line in the bat not sure what as I confused myself with all my edits.

Lexx not sure why you were giving misinformation, probably to make me buy your code for $20 dollars.

 

[LexxWork]

I'm not in any way trying to deceive you. I believe that I know whereof I speak. See my posts. Of course, your primitive "solution" can not be worth even 1$.

 

[lokiys]

Congrats @Harambulus as I said It is possible to get it working.

@LexxWork Really that was not nice to give misleading information to customers just to earn cash, nobody says it is not fair price, but it was not fair way you wanted to earn fair price... I would understand if you would be newbie, but everybody knows that you know what you are talking about...

Thanks

 

[Harambulus]

Of course, your primitive "solution" can not be worth even 1$.

Im not trying to sell my solutions though . And if it works it works, you dont get extra points for extra coding . Let us leave it at that.

i like to finish other people's topics...
in any case you can always feel fee to contact me if your snippet will not satisfy you. In addition, snippet information that i wrote to you in pm, there are others, simpler and cheaper, but also with good tech service and customizations from my own.
