Tech The best FFmpeg encoding for mobile (iPhone)

[blackmonsters]

Does this video play on your iPhone? http://blackmonsters.com/vmedia_mobile/32980.mp4

This is the code I used to encode it :

ffmpeg -i $src -vcodec libx264 -s 320x240 -vpre baseline -crf 28 -vpre slower -acodec libfaac -ac 2 -ar 44100 -ab 64k $dest_mobile

This is supposed to work even on the less capable iphones.

What do you think?


Thanks

Yeah, but what's the point of posting a link like that without an explanation.
Where does he think I got the code I'm using from?

You can improve the video quality, change "crf 28" to "cfr 20".

ffmpeg -i $src -vcodec libx264 -s 320x240 -vpre baseline -crf 28 -vpre slower -acodec libfaac -ac 2 -ar 44100 -ab 64k $dest_mobile

How many mega bytes/KB do you think is too big for a mobile video?

Yeah, jesus. Haha.

OP: The quality wasn't great, but it wasn't terrible. I guess a lot depends on the source.

Do you want me to upload a screen capture?

I'm using an iPhone 5S, by the way.

I don't need a screen cap.
I know it's not a clear video, but I needed to know if this new encoding even worked.

Thanks for check it for me.

PS : This board made me rude therefore it is not really my fault.
