How to encode multiple audio streams with different parameters at the same time using ffmpeg
I am trying to encode a dvd using ffmpeg.
$ffmpeg -i VTS_01_1.VOB
Input #0, mpeg, from 'VTS_01_1.VOB':
Duration: 00:38:06.52, start: 0.287267, bitrate: 3756 kb/s
Stream #0:0[0x1e0]: Video: mpeg2video (Main), yuv420p, 720x576 [SAR 64:45 DAR 16:9], 9800 kb/s, 25 fps, 25 tbr, 90k tbn, 50 tbc
Stream #0:1[0x80]: Audio: ac3, 48000 Hz, 5.1(side), s16, 384 kb/s
Stream #0:2[0x81]: Audio: ac3, 48000 Hz, 5.1(side), s16, 384 kb/s
Stream #0:3[0x82]: Audio: ac3, 48000 Hz, 5.1(side), s16, 384 kb/s
Stream #0:4[0x83]: Audio: ac3, 48000 Hz, mono, s16, 96 kb/s
Stream #0:5[0x28]: Subtitle: dvd_subtitle
Stream #0:6[0x29]: Subtitle: dvd_subtitle
Stream #0:7[0x23]: Subtitle: dvd_subtitle
Stream #0:8[0x24]: Subtitle: dvd_subtitle
Stream #0:9[0x26]: Subtitle: dvd_subtitle
Stream #0:10[0x27]: Subtitle: dvd_subtitle
From the streams above, I'm interested in storing two audio streams, numbers 1 and 4. Since you can see that number 4 is already 96kbps, so I tried a command that could handle the two streams differently:
cat VTS_01_1.VOB | nice ffmpeg -i - -s 640x368 -vcodec libtheora -r 25 -b:v 1200k -an -metadata title="My Title" -pass 1 -passlogfile "/media/data/outputlog" -f ogg -y /dev/null
cat VTS_01_1.VOB | nice ffmpeg -i - -map 0:0 -s 640x368 -vcodec libtheora -r 25 -b:v 1200k -async 1 -metadata title="My Title" -map 0:1 -acodec libvorbis -ac 6 -ar 48000 -b:a 192k -metadata title="english" -map 0:4 -acodec libvorbis -ac 2 -ar 48000 -b:a 96k -metadata title="commented" -pass 2 -passlogfile "/media/data/outputlog" "/media/data/output.ogv"
I would like to receive:
Input #0, ogg, from 'output.ogv':
Duration: 00:38:07.20, start: 0.000000, bitrate: 1360 kb/s
Stream #0:0: Video: theora, yuv420p, 640x368 [SAR 46:45 DAR 16:9], 25 fps, 25 tbr, 25 tbn, 25 tbc
Stream #0:1: Audio: vorbis, 48000 Hz, stereo, s16, 192 kb/s
Stream #0:2: Audio: vorbis, 48000 Hz, stereo, s16, 96 kb/s
Instead of this command, I get:
Input #0, ogg, from 'output.ogv':
Duration: 00:38:07.20, start: 0.000000, bitrate: 1360 kb/s
Stream #0:0: Video: theora, yuv420p, 640x368 [SAR 46:45 DAR 16:9], 25 fps, 25 tbr, 25 tbn, 25 tbc
Stream #0:1: Audio: vorbis, 48000 Hz, stereo, s16, 96 kb/s
Stream #0:2: Audio: vorbis, 48000 Hz, stereo, s16, 96 kb/s
So how can I specify different parameters for multiple audio streams?
BTW: I am on lubuntu oneiric with latest ffmpeg from git

Therefore the newaudio option is not recognized

The result the link LordNeckbeard mentions is to use -b:a:0
and -b:a:1
to set the bitrate for certain audio streams instead -b:a
, which affects all audio streams.
