When I use command (on Windows):
ffmpeg -i http://file.m3u8 -c copy -bsf:a aac_adtstoasc output.mp4
and I want to stop I click Ctrl+C, then file saves correctly. How can I end process in the same way in node?
var command = ffmpeg('http://file.m3u8')
.save('output.mp4').outputOptions([
'-c copy',
'-bsf:a aac_adtstoasc'
]);
I've tried this: command.kill('SIGINT'); and this: command.kill('SIGKILL); but those commands destroy output file. I'm not sure ".save()" is the correct function to save output in this case.
so after doing some digging I was able to get the results I was looking for by creating a method as such:
const stop = (movie) => {
return movie.ffmpegProc.stdin.write('q');
}
const video = ffmpeg('...').save('...');
setTimeout(() => {
// safely end the ffmpeg process without destroying the file.
stop(video);
}, 30000);
@joseym it works great, thanks a lot
sometime. write('q') ,it seem does not work,have you ever meeting ?becouse it no response at ffmpeg process for long time
