As I commented above, this is still reproducible in Saucy

Hi Daniel. As I commented above, this is still reproducible in Saucy (I’m attaching a screenshot). Does this mean it’s a bug in avconv and not in libvpx, or did I misunderstand you?

Just reproduced this in Raring and Saucy

Just reproduced this in Raring and Saucy. The latter currently has libvpx 1.2.0-2 which supposedly contains the fix I linked to above, so I’m not so sure about it anymore.

Application provided invalid, non monotonically increasing dts to muxer in stream 0

16. kesäkuuta 2013 klo 16.08
Sijainti: Vianhallintajärjestelmät: Launchpad

With some input video (such as LQ MP4 from [1]), the second pass fails when a preset enabling automatic placement of alternate reference frames with ”auto-alt-ref=1” (such as all of those provided by libav-tools) is used. (Example of non-problematic input is MP4 from [2].) This is apparently an upstream issue, already fixed in v1.1.0-184-g429743c [3].

Steps to reproduce:
1. wget ’http://archive.org/download/Mario2_919/Mario2_919_LQ.avi’
2. avconv -y -i Mario2_919_LQ.avi -c:v libvpx -pre libvpx-360p -pass 1 -an -sn -t 1 out.webm
3. avconv -y -i Mario2_919_LQ.avi -c:v libvpx -pre libvpx-360p -pass 2 -an -sn -t 1 out.webm

What happens:
The second pass ends with:
[webm @ 0x7ab6c0] Application provided invalid, non monotonically increasing dts to muxer in stream 0: 100 >= 100
av_interleaved_write_frame(): Invalid argument

What I expect to happen:
The second pass to finish successfully.

Workaround:
Copy preset file to ˝/.avconv/, comment out (#) auto-alt-ref=1.

In Raring avconv errors out on ”-preset” as with other incorrect use

I just tried this in Raring, and there it seems avconv now (correctly) errors out if using ”-preset”.

Avconv silently ignores (incorrect) -preset option

14. kesäkuuta 2013 klo 19.07
Sijainti: Vianhallintajärjestelmät: Launchpad

Apparently avconv silently ignores a ”-preset” option passed to it on the command-line. The correct option for passing a preset file is -pre, but -preset behaves differently from other incorrect options, as no error message is output and the avconv command is executed if otherwise valid. Not erroring out on erroneous usage is confusing, particularly with presets, as the output also does not specifically say when a preset *is* being applied (you have to deduce it from the data). Unless -preset is currently being used as a placeholder in the source, I suggest it be made to error out as other incorrect options do.

I’m pasting output from five demonstration runs below. 1) is an example of correct usage of -pre, 2) of correct usage of -pre with non-existing preset, 3) of trying to use a non-existing option -asdf, and 4) of using -preset in place of -pre, one run with an existing and one with a non-existing preset name.

1) Correct usage of -pre, as indicated by ”q=0-63” (which gets read from /usr/share/avconv/libvpx-360p.avpreset):

jani@saegusa:avconv-preset-test$ avconv -y -i input.mpeg -c:v libvpx -pre libvpx-360p -an -t 1 out.webm

2) Correct usage of -pre with non-existing preset, as indicated by ”could not be opened” error message:

Preset xlibvpx-360p specified for stream 0:0, but could not be opened.

3) Trying to use non-existing option -asdf, as indicated by ”Unrecognized option” error message:

4) Now, using -preset instead of -pre, regardless of validity of the parameter passed to it, the preset specified is not loaded, as indicated by ”q=-1–1”, but no ”Unrecognized option” error occurs:

I’ll keep this open for now

Okay, thanks for the advice Eric. I do intend to post here if I do come across a solution, so I’ll keep this open for now. Software updater in current releases looks different, so I’ll probably close this in any case once the next LTS comes around and I’ve upgraded.

No ”abandoned” alternative in the closing alternatives

Uh, except there’s no ”abandoned” alternative in the closing alternatives, and the question is still valid.
