Record HD videos in command line
Is this even possible? I have Logitech Webcam C270. I tried the following ffmpeg commands but they produce poor quality videos, not HD:
Code:
ffmpeg -f video4linux2 -s 320x240 -i /dev/video0 out.mpg |
Some notes maybe.
Start with listing the modes. Then maybe try their example. ffmpeg -f v4l2 -framerate 25 -video_size 640x480 -i /dev/video0 output.mkv " Linux Uses the video4linux2 (or simply v4l2) input device to capture live input such as from a webcam. See the v4l2 input device documentation for more information. List devices To list the supported, connected capture devices you can use the v4l-ctl tool. This example shows two connected webcams: /dev/video0 and /dev/video1. $ v4l2-ctl --list-devices USB2.0 PC CAMERA (usb-0000:00:1d.7-1): /dev/video1 UVC Camera (046d:0819) (usb-0000:00:1d.7-2): /dev/video0 List device capabilities To list available formats (supported pixel formats, video formats, and frame sizes) for a particular input device: $ ffmpeg -f v4l2 -list_formats all -i /dev/video0 … [video4linux2,v4l2 @ 0xf07d80] Raw : yuyv422 : YUV 4:2:2 (YUYV) : 640x480 160x120 176x144 320x176 320x240 352x288 432x240 544x288 640x360 [video4linux2,v4l2 @ 0xf07d80] Compressed: mjpeg : MJPEG : 640x480 160x120 176x144 320x176 320x240 352x288 432x240 544x288 640x360 Alternatively you could use v4l2-ctl --list-formats-ext to list available formats. Encoding example Example to encode video from /dev/video0: ffmpeg -f v4l2 -framerate 25 -video_size 640x480 -i /dev/video0 output.mkv Adjusting camera functions Brightness, zoom, focus, etc, can be adjusted with v4l2-ctl. Display all controls and their menus: v4l2-ctl -L Then adjust the value: v4l2-ctl -c <option>=<value> " https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/Capture/Webcam |
