I'm trying to figure out with progressive audio speed/acceleration.
In this case, atempo won't work due to speed factor as number instead of expression.
While the asetpts doesn't work in combination with adelay.
1.
audio1 - apply progressive PTS, eg: curveExpr * PTS; apply adelay
audio2 - unchanged
2.
amix both audios together
3.
concat resulted audio with video stream
The problem I'm facing is, that audio1 even after asetpts is still unchanged after adelay. I've tried to set atempo and it would work, but doesn't meet the requirement of acceleration then.
Any idea in there?
Thank you

I am recording AVI files with Camtasia. For some reason the video stream length is 2,3-5 seconds less than the audio stream.
When I convert the video with ffmpeg from AVI to MP4 it cuts the audio to the video length.
Would duplicating the last frame until the end of the audio be a solution? If yes how can this be done using ffmpeg?
The important thing is to convert the AVI to MP4 using ffmpeg and keep the audio stream of the video complete.
Thank you.
Edit 1: This issue is automatically solved by ffmpeg 2.x somehow but ffmpeg 4.x will cut audio. With the same settings the old version converts correctly.
Edit 2: tpad helped. Thank you very much #kesh. I used
-filter_complex 'tpad=stop=NUMBER_OF_FRAMES:stop_mode=clone'
I tried to get the duration using ffprobe and multiplied the number of seconds with number of frames per second but it was not enough. For each video I had to increase that number with 100,150 frames.
The issue is I cannot detect the exact number of frames to tell tpad. I also tried
-filter_complex 'tpad=stop=-1:stop_mode=clone'
but it freezez while processing.
Is there any other option?
I'm using ffmpeg to decode and encode signal. It works perfectly and I added filters. For example, I'm using such a command :
ffmpeg -re -i /home/dr_click/live.wav -af "anequalizer=c0 f=200 w=100 g=-5 t=0|c1 f=200 w=100 g=-5 t=0, anequalizer=c0 f=1000 w=100 g=3 t=0|c1 f=1000 w=100 g=3 t=0" -acodec pcm_s16be -ar 44100 -ac 2 -f rtp rtp://127.0.0.1:1234
I'm streaming my file, adding 2 filters with 200 Hz and 1000 Hz as central frequency and 100 Hz width and it works.
With such a filter, I know my gain will be -5db at 200Hz. But what is the gain for frequencies at 250 Hz ? Still -5db ? -4.5db ? -3db ? And same question at 350Hz or any other frequency.
What I'm looking for and didn't found is the way to get the frequency response of such a filter for a bandwith from 20Hz to 20kHz. In other words, what I'd like to know for any frequency is : gain = f (frequency) with a given ffmpeg filter
Thank you for your help,

i'm working on a quite similar issue. Mine is to replace the system wide 15 band graphical LADSPA equalizer (mbeq_1197, controlled by JACK Rack) with an ffmpeg filter. As it is AFAIK impossible to adjust ffmpeg filter parameters during runtime, I have to rely on my already generated JACK EQ settings and need to transfer them to the ffmpeg EQ. Alas, I could not find any two "comparable" EQs: ffmpeg only offers a 18 band "superequalizer". My previous EQ has 15 bands, so I decided to do some interpolations and compare the frequency responses of the old and the new EQ.
Now to answer your question: I'm not an audio engineer, and I'm sure there are more professional ways. But what I found out for now is my current workflow:
Generate some white noise. In Linux you can e.g. use sox oder Audacity. In Audacity do Generate -> Built-in -> Noise... => White noise (1 min should be enough)
Save the file as WAV.
Apply your filter to this WAV: ffmpeg -i whitenoise.wav -af "<your filter>" whitenoise_filtered.wav
Load the filtered file into Audacity and do Analyze -> Plot Spectrum...
The output will be a little scattered because the white noise is not perfect, but this should be negligible.
Good luck!

I have a bunch of mkv files, with FLAC as the audio codec and FFV1 as the video one.
The files were created using an EasyCap aquisition dongle from a VCR analog source. Specifically, I used VLC's "open acquisition device" prompt and selected PAL. Then, I converted the files (audio PCM, video raw YUV) to (FLAC, FFV1) using
ffmpeg.exe -i input.avi -acodec flac -vcodec ffv1 -level 3 -threads 4 -coder 1 -context 1 -g 1 -slices 24 -slicecrc 1 output.mkv
Now, the files are progressively out of sync. It may be due to the fact that while (maybe) the video has a constant framerate, the FLAC track has variable framerate. So, is there a way to sync the track to audio, or something alike? Can FFmpeg do this? Thanks
EDIT
On Mulvya hint, I plotted the difference in sync at various times; the first column shows the seconds elapsed, the second shows the difference - in secs. The plot seems to behave linearly, with 0.0078 as a constant slope. NOTE: measurements taken by hands, by means of a chronometer
EDIT 2
Playing around with VirtualDub, I found that changing the framerate to 25 fps from the original 24.889 (Video->Frame rate...->Change frame rate to) and using the track converted to wav definitely does work. Two problems, though: VirtualDub crashes when importing the original FFV1-FLAC mkv file, so I had to convert the video to H264 to try it out; more, I find it difficult to use an external encoder to save VirtualDub output.
So, could I avoid using VirtualDub, and simply use ffmpeg for it? Here's the exported vdscript:
VirtualDub.audio.SetSource("E:\\4_track2.wav", "");
VirtualDub.audio.SetMode(0);
VirtualDub.audio.SetInterleave(1,500,1,0,0);
VirtualDub.audio.SetClipMode(1,1);
VirtualDub.audio.SetEditMode(1);
VirtualDub.audio.SetConversion(0,0,0,0,0);
VirtualDub.audio.SetVolume();
VirtualDub.audio.SetCompression();
VirtualDub.audio.EnableFilterGraph(0);
VirtualDub.video.SetInputFormat(0);
VirtualDub.video.SetOutputFormat(7);
VirtualDub.video.SetMode(3);
VirtualDub.video.SetSmartRendering(0);
VirtualDub.video.SetPreserveEmptyFrames(0);
VirtualDub.video.SetFrameRate2(25,1,1);
VirtualDub.video.SetIVTC(0, 0, 0, 0);
VirtualDub.video.SetCompression();
VirtualDub.video.filters.Clear();
VirtualDub.audio.filters.Clear();
The first line imports the wav-converted audio track.
Can I set an equivalent pipe in ffmpeg (possibly, using FLAC - not wav)? SetFrameRate2 is maybe the key, here.
I'd like to sync an audio and video file together so that they end at the same time. Is there an easy way to do this with ffmpeg?
The only ideas I have are 1) finding the lengths of the two (which is annoying) and delaying the shorter one by the difference between the two lengths, and 2) reversing the two, syncing them, then reversing again. There's got to be a better way...
After finding the lengths of the two and calculating the required delay, you can run
ffmpeg -i video -i audio -af "adelay=6500|6500" -c:v copy output
Here, both the channels of a stereo audio stream are delayed by 6500 milliseconds i.e. 6.5 seconds. The video stream is copied over without recompression.
I am trying to make an audio file be exactly x second.
So far i tried using the atempo filter by doing the following calculation
Audio length / desired length = atempo.
But this is not accurate, and I am having to tweak the tempo manually to get it to an exact fit.
Are there any other solutions to get this work ? Or am I doing this incorrectly?
My original file is a wav file, and my output in an mp3
Here is a sample command
ffmpeg -i input.wav -codec:a libmp3lame -filter:a "atempo=0.9992323" -b:a 320K output.mp3
UPDATE:
I was able to correctly calculate the tempo by changing the way I am receiving the audio length.
I am now calculating the current audio length using the actual file size and the sample rate.
Audio Length = file size / (sample rate * 2)
Sample rate is something like 16000 Hz. You can get that by using ffprob or ffmpeg.
You are calculating the tempo incorrectly.
Audio length / desired length = atempo
should be:
desired length / Audio length = atempo
