Re: Closed captions 608 to 708 VANC

I'm not even aware about any "small" tool that one could maybe buy and utilize it in ffastrans. Nothing open source exists anywhere on the web unfortunately. There just doesn't seem to be much interest. :( Even @FranceBB had to spend a few ten thousands to the major vendors for the workfl...

Re: Hosts take same job

Yeah, doctor sayin i got Vitamin DB deficiency :? lol Jokes aside, in 9 years and 4 months of FFAStrans usage I've never really run into an actual effective concurrency issue. Lots of things changed over the years, but the file based database with the various tickets (json) has been able to cope qu...

Re: Troubles to write on a NAS

I'm not using the built-in XDCAM because i have to encode into 50p and this preset is not available. Well, there's a very simple reason why it's not available: it doesn't exist xD When you're encoding in HD so 1280x720 then you can go to 50p, however if you're encoding to FULL HD you can only go to...

Re: Troubles to write on a NAS

Given that you're trying to create an XDCAM-50 file, is there any particular reason why you're not using the built-in XDCAM encoder? How to use a delivery block after a ffmpeg in a command executor. When you're outputting the file in FFMpeg, don't write to destination, write here: "%s_job_work%...

Re: CMAF

I mainly use chatgpt :") Arggg, the devil! Jokes aside, I generally avoid all the "AS" (Artificial Stupidity), be it GPT, Copilot, Gemini etc (got the joke? XD). Unfortunately (or should I say "fortunately"), for niche things, they're not really good and encoding is one of ...

Re: CMAF

Hi there, welcome to the forum! :) I'm actually glad that you're using FFAStrans, the more people use it, the better. Anyway, the error you're getting is related to the way the Custom FFMpeg node works. In a custom FFMpeg node the input from the last node is automatically used, which means that you ...

Re: CONDITIONAL QUESTION

To be fair, if you want the conditional to return "true" for all files starting with "DGTL_", then there's no need to mess with Regext, you can simply do: if %s_original_name% == DGTL_* and it's gonna work with a simple conditional. ;) Screenshot from 2025-02-24 15-13-48.png Scre...

Re: Farming mode does not work as a service

When you open the Workflow Manager, can you check at the bottom that FFAStrans isn't running as Application? Most often than not this message pops up when the service is running as application, for instance: Screenshot from 2025-02-17 17-35-22.png This occurs when the host is set up with the followi...

Re: H264 from AVC Intra Colours Wrong

Hey Graham, can you try with 1.4.2.10? The build is here: https://github.com/steipal/FFAStrans-Public You just have to click on "Code" and select "Download as zip". The reason why I'm suggesting this is that I cannot reproduce this with 1.4.2.10 and, frankly speaking, that's exac...

Re: Lowercase for wrapper in audio extraction

Well, on the Delivery node you can always tick the box that removes the extension and add "wav" as lowercase (at least that's how I've done it), which is probably easier to remember than editing the json, especially given that any other change to the workflow would override the json if you...
