# Media (General) ## Audio ### Split file with cue sheet and use filename from cue sheet :::shell shnsplit -D -f file.cue -t "%n %t" -o "flac flac -8 -o %f -" file.flac To directly encode to opuus: :::shell shnsplit -D -f file.cue -t "%n %t" -o "cust ext=opus opusenc --bitrate=160k - %f" file.flac ### Remove all tags except MusicBrainz tags from flac files :::shell for i in *.flac; do tags=$(metaflac --export-tags-to=- $i | grep -E '^MUSICBRAINZ_'); metaflac --remove-all-tags $i; metaflac --import-tags-from=- $i <<< $tags; done ### Downmix 5.1/7.1 to 2.0 :::shell mpv --oac=flac --audio-channels=stereo --oacopts=compression_level=0 --o=outfile.flac infile.flac ### Record pulseaudio device to flac :::shell parec [ -d DEVICE ] | flac --endian=little --channels=2 --bps=16 --sample-rate=48000 --sign=signed -o foo.flac - ### Copy Matroska Chapters to Opus Requires the metadata to fit in one ogg page (so no cover art :(). :::shell mkvextract file.mka chapters | xq -r 'def pad: tostring | (3 - length) as $l | ("0" * $l)[:$l] + .; [[.Chapters.EditionEntry.ChapterAtom[] | {start: .ChapterTimeStart, name: .ChapterDisplay.ChapterString}] | to_entries[] | "CHAPTER\(.key|pad)=\(.value.start)\nCHAPTER\(.key|pad)NAME=\(.value.name)"] | join("\n")' | opustags -i -S file.opus ## Video ### Copy DVD stream to file [with dvd already copied to local directory] :::shell mpv --stream-dump=1.mkv dvd://1 [--dvd-device path/to/dvd] ## MKV ### Fix mimetype of font attachments Some matroska files have the mimetype for font attachment for fonts set to `application/octet-strem`. :::shell mkvpropedit --attachment-mime-type font/sfnt --update-attachment mime-type:application/octet-stream file.mkv ## FFmpeg ### Create color timeline image from video :::shell (infile=in.mkv; outfile=out.png; rows=320; width=1920; height=1080; ffmpeg -i $infile -vf tblend=all_mode=average,fps=${rows}/$(ffprobe -v error -show_entries format=duration -of default=noprint_wrappers=1:nokey=1 $infile),scale=1:1,scale=${width}/${rows}:${height},setsar=1,tile=${rows}x1 -frames:v 1 $outfile) ### Show duration of file in seconds :::shell ffprobe -v error -show_entries format=duration -of default=noprint_wrappers=1:nokey=1 file.mkv ### Remove EIA-608 subtitles from video bitstream ([source](https://stackoverflow.com/a/51439554)) :::shell ffmpeg -i infile.mkv -c copy -bsf:v "filter_units=remove_types=6" outfile.mkv ## QP file replace 24/1.001 with framerate :::shell ffprobe -i infile.mkv -print_format json -show_chapters -loglevel error | jq -r '.chapters[].start / 1000000000 * 24/1.001 | round | tostring + " I"' >> foo.qp ## Manga ### Convert greyscale images to actuual greyscale For some reasons, many releases encode greyscale manga pages as yuv420. Sadly, the chroma layers are not completely empty but include some (almost invisible) noise. This fixes that for lower battery comsumption, a really small file size gain and just because it seems right. This only works for pages with the same size (image2/ffmpeg limitation), but releases suffering from this mostly fulfill this requirement. **WARNING**: This uses some heuristics (SSIM > 98) to determine if a page is greyscale. This may not work all the time (it did for me though). Please verify if all converted images actually are greyscale. :::shell ffmpeg -loglevel error -f lavfi -i "movie=%03d.jpg:f=image2,split=2[orig][in2];[in2]extractplanes=y[grey];[orig][grey]ssim=-" -f null - >> ssim while read frame;do (( $(cut -d' ' -f5 <<< $frame | cut -c 7-8) < 98 )) || {file=$(printf "%03d.jpg\n" $(cut -d' ' -f1 <<< $frame|cut -d: -f2)); echo $file; jpegtran -copy none -optimize -grayscale -outfile $file $file}; done < ssim jpegoptim -s *.jpg exiftool -overwrite_original -all= *.jpg # print all converted images for verification grep -E 'All:0.(9[0-8]|[0-8][0-9])' ssim ### Merge page spreads to single page Use function `merge_pages right-page left-page` (without .jpg). Result will be written to left-page-right-page.jpg`. :::shell function merge_pages() { convert ${2}.jpg ${1}.jpg +append ${1}-${2}.jpg exiftool -overwrite_original -all= ${1}-${2}.jpg } # remove single pages mkdir single_pages for i in ???-???.jpg;do mv $(cut -d- -f1 <<< $i).jpg $(cut -d- -f2 <<< $i) single_pages;done ## mpv ### View thumbnails generated by [mpv-gallery-view](https://github.com/occivink/mpv-gallery-view) :::shell mpv --pause --demuxer=rawvideo --demuxer-rawvideo-mp-format=bgra --demuxer-rawvideo-w=288 --demuxer-rawvideo-h=162 FILE Convert to tiles :::shell ffmpeg -codec:v rawvideo -pixel_format bgra -video_size 288:162 -f image2 -pattern_type glob -i '*' -vf tile=layout=10x10 tile-%04d.png ## Download ### Bilibili live recording :::shell curl 'https://api.live.bilibili.com/xlive/web-room/v1/record/getLiveRecordUrl?rid=R1sx411c7Xn&platform=html5'|jq -r '.data.list | map(.url) | to_entries[] | .value + "\n out=" + (.key|tostring) + ".flv"' | aria2c --auto-file-renaming=false -x 16 -j 10 -i - mkvmerge '[' $(find . -name '*.flv'|sort -V) ']' -o merge.mkv ## PDF ### Downsample bitmap PDF Useful for sending large 300/600 dpi scans as e-mail. Change `pdfimage32` to `pdfimage8` for greyscale, `300` to the input DPI and `DownScaleFactor` to the desired downscaling. For some reason fails when setting compression to JPEG. :::shell gs -sDEVICE=pdfimage24 -r300 -dDownScaleFactor=2 -o downscaled.pdf document.pdf Imagemagick supports JPEG. Set your desired output density and JPEG quality. :::shell convert -density 300 -compress jpeg -quality 80 document.pdf downscaled.pdf ## Screen sharing Since there is no good support for WebRTC screensharing with wayland, a virtual webcam device can be used. :::shell sudo modprobe v4l2loopback exclusive_caps=1 card_label=screensharing # only has to be done once wf-recorder --muxer=v4l2 --codec=rawvideo --file=/dev/video2 -x yuv420p # adjust /dev/video2 to the actual device To remove the virtual webcam device run `sudo modprobe -r v4l2loopback`
