How to zero or omit timecode in DV to mp4?
ffmpeg by default copies timecode from .dv to H.265 .mp4. My .dv files
start at random timecodes like 00:25:06:16 I don't need and I'd like
to either zero them to 00:00:00:00 or maybe omit them when converting
to .mp4.
It seems it is possible to zero them with:
for i in *.dv; do ffmpeg -i "$i" -vf
bwdif=1,scale=788:576,crop=768:576:10:0,setsar=sar=1/1 -c:v libx265 -crf 18
-preset slow -timecode 00:00:00:00 -tag:v hvc1 -c:a aac -b:a 128k
"${i%.*}_converted.mp4"; done
Does it matter where the '-timecode' option is? With other libx265
options or after video and audio options?
Some sources say that timecode_rate option must be specified with
something like '-timecode 00:00:00:00:r=50' but that does not seem to
make any difference. Is it meant for burning the timecode in (with
some added options)?
With the command above in the Terminal output there is '0.02 fps'.
What does it mean?
Stream #0:0: Video: hevc (libx265) (hvc1 / 0x31637668), yuv420p, 768x576
[SAR 1:1 DAR 4:3], q=-1--1, 0.02 fps, 12800 tbn, 50 tbc
On the other hand, if instead '-timecode 00:00:00:00' I omit timecode
with '-write_tmcd off' the output has a more reasonable '50 fps':
Stream #0:0: Video: hevc (libx265) (hvc1 / 0x31637668), yuv420p, 768x576
[SAR 1:1 DAR 4:3], q=-1--1, 50 fps, 12800 tbn, 50 tbc
Is that just a cosmetic issue or should I fine-tune the command?
