#8705(avformat:new): content_type option is not working with tee output
#8705: content_type option is not working with tee output ----------------------------------+--------------------------------------- Reporter: animtim | Type: defect Status: new | Priority: normal Component: avformat | Version: unspecified Keywords: | Blocked By: Blocking: | Reproduced by developer: 0 Analyzed by developer: 0 | ----------------------------------+--------------------------------------- Summary of the bug: When using ffmpeg to send a webm video stream to an icecast server, it needs the option -content_type video/webm . It works fine for a single output, but when using a tee output (to both send the stream to the server and save to disk for example), the -content_type option is lost and default value (audio/mpeg) is used instead, so the stream on the icecast server is not readable. I could workaround the issue locally by editing libavformat/icecast.c to replace the default value to video/webm and rebuild ffmpeg, but of course this is not a solution for most users... Also, I tried to pass the option to the corresponding tee output but it was not recognized/not working. So I guess it is a bug to fix... Or maybe I missed something? How to reproduce: -install an icecast server, with a mountpoint for video.webm, and of course adapt the source, password and url in the command below: {{{ ffmpeg -video_size 1920x1080 -thread_queue_size 512 -framerate 30 -f x11grab -i :0.0+0,0 \ -thread_queue_size 512 -f pulse -ac 2 -i default \ -f webm -cluster_size_limit 2M -cluster_time_limit 5100 -content_type video/webm \ -vf scale=640:-1 \ -acodec libvorbis -aq 4 \ -vcodec libvpx -b:v 1000K -crf 40 -g 150 -deadline good -threads 2 \ -f tee -map 0:v -map 1:a "icecast://source:password@example.domain:8000/video.webm|savedVideo.webm" ffmpeg version 4.1.5 Copyright (c) 2000-2020 the FFmpeg developers built with gcc 8.4.0 (Mageia 8.4.0-1.mga7) }}} Note: tested with several distribution packages (Debian stable and sid, Manjaro), issue is the same. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.ffmpeg.org/ticket/8705> FFmpeg <https://ffmpeg.org> FFmpeg issue tracker

Otherwise, what tee should do if muxing to WebM on one side and to Ogg on the other? -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.ffmpeg.org/ticket/8705#comment:1> FFmpeg <https://ffmpeg.org> FFmpeg issue tracker

This syntax can only set format options, not protocol option. It should allow to set protocol options. In the meantime, you can set protocol options with an ugly syntax, something like, IIRC, `icecast,,content_type,video/webm,,://...`. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.ffmpeg.org/ticket/8705#comment:3> FFmpeg <https://ffmpeg.org> FFmpeg issue tracker
