ffprobe的正确打开方式

目录php

前言

FFmpeg是一个完整的跨平台音视频解决方案，它能够用于处理音频和视频的转码、录制、流化处理等应用场景。官网：http://ffmpeg.org/。FFmpeg有三大利器，分别是ffmpeg、ffprobe、ffplay。今天主要介绍ffprobe，它是FFmpeg用于查看媒体文件格式信息的强大工具。ui

实战

分析音频

话很少说，先来看ffprobe的简单使用实例：编码

ffprobe 少年.mp3

在少年.mp3 文件的同级目录运行上述命令，会有以下输出信息：url

[mp3 @ 0x7fdf85801400] Skipping 0 bytes of junk at 417.
Input #0, mp3, from '少年.mp3':
  Duration: 00:03:56.15, start: 0.025057, bitrate: 128 kb/s
    Stream #0:0: Audio: mp3, 44100 Hz, stereo, s16p, 128 kb/s
    Metadata:
      encoder         : LAME3.99r
    Side data:
      replaygain: track gain - -8.000000, track peak - unknown, album gain - unknown, album peak - unknown,

它们都是什么意思呢？咱们接下来逐行分析一下，首先看第一行：spa

Duration: 00:03:56.15, start: 0.025057, bitrate: 128 kb/s

代表了音频文件（少年.mp3）的主要信息，音乐时长是3分56.15秒，开始播放声音的时间是0.025057秒，码率是128kb/s。

接下来看下一行：

Stream #0:0: Audio: mp3, 44100 Hz, stereo, s16p, 128 kb/s

代表音频文件只有一路音频流，音频编码格式是mp3，采样率是44.1kHz，声道数是立体声双声道，采样格式是16位的平铺格式，码率是128kb/s。

再看下一行：

Metadata:
      encoder         : LAME3.99r

代表音频文件的音频编码器是LAME，版本号是3.99r，LAME 是最好的MP3编码器，一段时间内被业界认为是编码高品质MP3的最好也是惟一的选择。若是想具体了解LAME，能够点这里。

分析视频

接下来，咱们看一个视频文件，本身比较喜欢的凉凉的MV。

运行以下命令：

ffprobe 凉凉-MV.mp4

命令执行结果，输出内容以下：

Input #0, mov,mp4,m4a,3gp,3g2,mj2, from '凉凉-MV.mp4':
  Metadata:
    major_brand     : mp42
    minor_version   : 0
    compatible_brands: mp42isom
    creation_time   : 2018-06-21 06:42:54
  Duration: 00:03:24.13, start: 0.000000, bitrate: 507 kb/s
    Stream #0:0(und): Audio: aac (LC) (mp4a / 0x6134706D), 44100 Hz, stereo, fltp, 64 kb/s (default)
    Metadata:
      creation_time   : 2018-06-21 06:42:54
    Stream #0:1(und): Video: h264 (High) (avc1 / 0x31637661), yuv420p, 640x368, 439 kb/s, 23 fps, 23 tbr, 90k tbn, 46 tbc (default)
    Metadata:
      creation_time   : 2018-06-21 06:42:54
      encoder         : JVT/AVC Coding

接下来咱们看看这些信息的具体意思，先看第一行：

Input #0, mov,mp4,m4a,3gp,3g2,mj2, from '凉凉-MV.mp4':

代表视频文件的封装格式属于 mov，mp4，m4a，3gp，3g2，mj2 格式集合。

接下来看下一行：

Metadata:
    major_brand     : mp42
    minor_version   : 0
    compatible_brands: mp42isom
    creation_time   : 2018-06-21 06:42:54

其中，major_brand代表视频文件属于mp4的子格式mp42，兼容格式有mp42isom，视频文件建立时间是2018年6月21日6时42分54秒，具体Metadata数据格式能够参考：

aligned(8) class FileTypeBox extends Box(‘ftyp’)   
{   
    unsigned int(32) major_brand;   
    unsigned int(32) minor_version;   
    unsigned int(32) compatible_brands[];  // to end of the box   
}

接下来看下一行：

Duration: 00:03:24.13, start: 0.000000, bitrate: 507 kb/s

代表视频文件时间长度是3分钟24.13秒，开始播放时间是0.0秒，视频码率是507kb/s。

继续分析下一行：

Stream #0:0(und): Audio: aac (LC) (mp4a / 0x6134706D), 44100 Hz, stereo, fltp, 64 kb/s (default)
    Metadata:
      creation_time   : 2018-06-21 06:42:54

代表视频文件中包含一路音频流，音频编码格式是aac，采样率是44.1kHz，声道数是立体声双声道，采样格式是32位的平铺格式，码率是默认的64kb/s（注意：这里只是音频码率，总码率的一部分）。其中fltp具体格式能够参考：

static const SampleFmtInfo sample_fmt_info[AV_SAMPLE_FMT_NB] = {
    [AV_SAMPLE_FMT_U8]   = { .name =   "u8", .bits =  8, .planar = 0, .altform = AV_SAMPLE_FMT_U8P  },
    [AV_SAMPLE_FMT_S16]  = { .name =  "s16", .bits = 16, .planar = 0, .altform = AV_SAMPLE_FMT_S16P },
    [AV_SAMPLE_FMT_S32]  = { .name =  "s32", .bits = 32, .planar = 0, .altform = AV_SAMPLE_FMT_S32P },
    [AV_SAMPLE_FMT_S64]  = { .name =  "s64", .bits = 64, .planar = 0, .altform = AV_SAMPLE_FMT_S64P },
    [AV_SAMPLE_FMT_FLT]  = { .name =  "flt", .bits = 32, .planar = 0, .altform = AV_SAMPLE_FMT_FLTP },
    [AV_SAMPLE_FMT_DBL]  = { .name =  "dbl", .bits = 64, .planar = 0, .altform = AV_SAMPLE_FMT_DBLP },
    [AV_SAMPLE_FMT_U8P]  = { .name =  "u8p", .bits =  8, .planar = 1, .altform = AV_SAMPLE_FMT_U8   },
    [AV_SAMPLE_FMT_S16P] = { .name = "s16p", .bits = 16, .planar = 1, .altform = AV_SAMPLE_FMT_S16  },
    [AV_SAMPLE_FMT_S32P] = { .name = "s32p", .bits = 32, .planar = 1, .altform = AV_SAMPLE_FMT_S32  },
    [AV_SAMPLE_FMT_S64P] = { .name = "s64p", .bits = 64, .planar = 1, .altform = AV_SAMPLE_FMT_S64  },
    [AV_SAMPLE_FMT_FLTP] = { .name = "fltp", .bits = 32, .planar = 1, .altform = AV_SAMPLE_FMT_FLT  },
    [AV_SAMPLE_FMT_DBLP] = { .name = "dblp", .bits = 64, .planar = 1, .altform = AV_SAMPLE_FMT_DBL  },
};

继续分析下一行：

Stream #0:1(und): Video: h264 (High) (avc1 / 0x31637661), yuv420p, 640x368, 439 kb/s, 23 fps, 23 tbr, 90k tbn, 46 tbc (default)
    Metadata:
      creation_time   : 2018-06-21 06:42:54
      encoder         : JVT/AVC Coding

代表MV文件中还包含另外一路视频流，视频编码格式是h264，子类型是high类型，颜色空间是yuv420p，分辨率是640*368，码率是439kb/s，帧率是23帧每秒，tbr也是帧率的意思，tbn表示时间精度是1/90k，即1s=90000时间单位，tbc是编码时间精度，即1s=46时间单位。

注意：这里有一个你们须要注意的地方，不说的话，你们极可能忽略。上边咱们看到了整个视频文件的码率是507kb/s，其中音频码率是64kb/s，视频码率是439kb/s，发现没有64kb/s+439kb/s≈507kb/s。总体视频文件的码率=音频码率+视频码率。

若是想获取更多的媒体信息能够使用以下命令：

ffprobe -show_format 凉凉-MV.mp4

输出的结果比以前多了其余的format信息：

Input #0, mov,mp4,m4a,3gp,3g2,mj2, from '凉凉-MV.mp4':
  Metadata:

  Duration: 00:03:24.13, start: 0.000000, bitrate: 507 kb/s

    Metadata:
      creation_time   : 2018-06-21 06:42:54

[/FORMAT]

好比nb_streams=2表示包含两路媒体流，一路音频流，一路视频流。

duration=204.130433，表示视频文件长204.130433秒。

size=12957343，表示视频文件大小约为13MB≈12957343/1000/1000，注意单位是字节Byte，不是bit，另外FFmpeg中的b/s单位，尽管是小b，但表示的意义是字节byte。FFmpeg这样作很容易让初学者混淆字节和比特的概念，通常来讲咱们都是说大B是字节，小b是比特。你们注意区分就好。

bit_rate=507806，表示码率是507kb/s≈507806/1000，注意进制没有使用1024，为了便于计算直接使用1000。

而后看一下系统给出的媒体概要信息，和咱们用ffproge分析的结果是一致的。

另外，仍是更详细的输出命令，而且还能够指定json格式化输出。命令以下：

ffprobe -print_format json -show_streams 凉凉-MV.mp4

输出结果以下：

总结

至此，咱们已经见识了ffprobe的强大之处，更多技能尚未陈述完，你们本身尝试解锁吧。最后推荐你们使用以下命令：

ffprobe -h

man ffprobe

获取更多用法，好比：

FFPROBE(1)

NAME
ffprobe - ffprobe media prober

SYNOPSIS
ffprobe [options] [input_url]

DESCRIPTION
ffprobe gathers information from multimedia streams and prints it in human- and machine-readable fashion.

For example it can be used to check the format of the container used by a multimedia stream and the format and type of each media stream contained in it.

If a url is specified in input, ffprobe will try to open and probe the url content. If the url cannot be opened or recognized as a multimedia file, a
positive exit code is returned.

ffprobe may be employed both as a standalone application or in combination with a textual filter, which may perform more sophisticated processing, e.g.
statistical processing or plotting.

Options are used to list some of the formats supported by ffprobe or for specifying which information to display, and for setting how ffprobe will show it.

ffprobe output is designed to be easily parsable by a textual filter, and consists of one or more sections of a form defined by the selected writer, which
is specified by the print_format option.

Sections may contain other nested sections, and are identified by a name (which may be shared by other sections), and an unique name. See the output of
sections.

Metadata tags stored in the container or in the streams are recognized and printed in the corresponding "FORMAT", "STREAM" or "PROGRAM_STREAM" section.
