Thanks! This works, and I agree that it’s better than using the filename: ffmpeg -pattern_type glob -i '*.jpg' -vf "drawtext=text='%{metadata\\:DateTimeOriginal}': fontfile=/System/Library/Fonts/Helvetica.ttc:fontcolor=white: fontsize=48: x=(w-text_w)*0.01: y=(h-text_h)*0.98" -y CombLapseWithTimeStamp.mp4 I can now add tmix after drawtext: ffmpeg -pattern_type glob -i '*.jpg' -vf "drawtext=text='%{metadata\\:DateTimeOriginal}': fontfile=/System/Library/Fonts/Helvetica.ttc:fontcolor=white: fontsize=48: x=(w-text_w)*0.01: y=(h-text_h)*0.98, tmix=frames=10:weights='1'" -y CombLapseWithTimeStampAndTmix.mp4 And it renders, but the timestamps get blended. Can I use “split” to make one stream of images from which I can extract the timestamp, and then another stream for tmix, and then overlay the timestamp after tmix? How would I sync up the two streams, since tmix would be N frames shorter than the original? Thank you!! ffmpeg -pattern_type glob -i '*.jpg' -vf "drawtext=text='%{metadata\\:DateTimeOriginal}': fontfile=/System/Library/Fonts/Helvetica.ttc:fontcolor=white: fontsize=48: x=(w-text_w)*0.01: y=(h-text_h)*0.98, tmix=frames=10:weights='1'" -y CombLapseWithTimeStampAndTmix.mp4 ffmpeg version N-109776-g7e1d474021-tessus https://evermeet.cx/ffmpeg/ Copyright (c) 2000-2023 the FFmpeg developers built with Apple clang version 11.0.0 (clang-1100.0.33.17) configuration: --cc=/usr/bin/clang --prefix=/opt/ffmpeg --extra-version=tessus --enable-avisynth --enable-fontconfig --enable-gpl --enable-libaom --enable-libass --enable-libbluray --enable-libdav1d --enable-libfreetype --enable-libgsm --enable-libmodplug --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libmysofa --enable-libopencore-amrnb --enable-libopencore-amrwb --enable-libopenh264 --enable-libopenjpeg --enable-libopus --enable-librubberband --enable-libshine --enable-libsnappy --enable-libsoxr --enable-libspeex --enable-libtheora --enable-libtwolame --enable-libvidstab --enable-libvmaf --enable-libvo-amrwbenc --enable-libvorbis --enable-libvpx --enable-libwebp --enable-libx264 --enable-libx265 --enable-libxavs --enable-libxvid --enable-libzimg --enable-libzmq --enable-libzvbi --enable-version3 --pkg-config-flags=--static --disable-ffplay libavutil 57. 44.100 / 57. 44.100 libavcodec 59. 63.100 / 59. 63.100 libavformat 59. 38.100 / 59. 38.100 libavdevice 59. 8.101 / 59. 8.101 libavfilter 8. 56.100 / 8. 56.100 libswscale 6. 8.112 / 6. 8.112 libswresample 4. 9.100 / 4. 9.100 libpostproc 56. 7.100 / 56. 7.100 Input #0, image2, from '*.jpg': Duration: 00:00:00.40, start: 0.000000, bitrate: N/A Stream #0:0: Video: mjpeg (Baseline), yuvj422p(pc, bt470bg/unknown/unknown), 3008x2000, 25 fps, 25 tbr, 25 tbn Stream mapping: Stream #0:0 -> #0:0 (mjpeg (native) -> h264 (libx264)) Press [q] to stop, [?] for help [libx264 @ 0x7fddb8f07540] using cpu capabilities: MMX2 SSE2Fast SSSE3 SSE4.2 [libx264 @ 0x7fddb8f07540] profile High 4:2:2, level 5.1, 4:2:2, 8-bit [libx264 @ 0x7fddb8f07540] 264 - core 164 r3106 eaa68fa - H.264/MPEG-4 AVC codec - Copyleft 2003-2023 - http://www.videolan.org/x264.html - options: cabac=1 ref=3 deblock=1:0:0 analyse=0x3:0x113 me=hex subme=7 psy=1 psy_rd=1.00:0.00 mixed_ref=1 me_range=16 chroma_me=1 trellis=1 8x8dct=1 cqm=0 deadzone=21,11 fast_pskip=1 chroma_qp_offset=-2 threads=18 lookahead_threads=3 sliced_threads=0 nr=0 decimate=1 interlaced=0 bluray_compat=0 constrained_intra=0 bframes=3 b_pyramid=2 b_adapt=1 b_bias=0 direct=1 weightb=1 open_gop=0 weightp=2 keyint=250 keyint_min=25 scenecut=40 intra_refresh=0 rc_lookahead=40 rc=crf mbtree=1 crf=23.0 qcomp=0.60 qpmin=0 qpmax=69 qpstep=4 ip_ratio=1.40 aq=1:1.00 Output #0, mp4, to 'CombLapseWithTimeStampAndTmix.mp4': Metadata: encoder : Lavf59.38.100 Stream #0:0: Video: h264 (avc1 / 0x31637661), yuvj422p(pc, progressive), 3008x2000, q=2-31, 25 fps, 12800 tbn Metadata: encoder : Lavc59.63.100 libx264 Side data: cpb: bitrate max/min/avg: 0/0/0 buffer size: 0 vbv_delay: N/A frame= 10 fps=6.1 q=-1.0 Lsize= 1293kB time=00:00:00.28 bitrate=37843.9kbits/s speed=0.171x video:1293kB audio:0kB subtitle:0kB other streams:0kB global headers:0kB muxing overhead: 0.069884% [libx264 @ 0x7fddb8f07540] frame I:1 Avg QP:23.93 size:642058 [libx264 @ 0x7fddb8f07540] frame P:9 Avg QP:24.96 size: 75652 [libx264 @ 0x7fddb8f07540] mb I I16..4: 1.6% 90.1% 8.3% [libx264 @ 0x7fddb8f07540] mb P I16..4: 0.0% 0.6% 0.0% P16..4: 59.0% 9.9% 7.5% 0.0% 0.0% skip:22.9% [libx264 @ 0x7fddb8f07540] 8x8 transform intra:90.0% inter:77.8% [libx264 @ 0x7fddb8f07540] coded y,uvDC,uvAC intra: 95.0% 99.2% 74.9% inter: 29.7% 69.0% 1.9% [libx264 @ 0x7fddb8f07540] i16 v,h,dc,p: 16% 33% 2% 49% [libx264 @ 0x7fddb8f07540] i8 v,h,dc,ddl,ddr,vr,hd,vl,hu: 20% 25% 13% 5% 7% 7% 7% 7% 10% [libx264 @ 0x7fddb8f07540] i4 v,h,dc,ddl,ddr,vr,hd,vl,hu: 20% 27% 8% 6% 9% 8% 8% 7% 7% [libx264 @ 0x7fddb8f07540] i8c dc,h,v,p: 35% 28% 26% 11% [libx264 @ 0x7fddb8f07540] Weighted P-Frames: Y:88.9% UV:88.9% [libx264 @ 0x7fddb8f07540] ref P L0: 84.5% 9.9% 5.4% 0.1% 0.0% [libx264 @ 0x7fddb8f07540] kb/s:26458.46 _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-user mailing list ffmpeg-user@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-user To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-user-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
