Moved temp-folder: encoding fails

[schneck]

Hi,

I changed the location of the temp folder, but after that, encoding
does not work any more.

I mounted a volume: /mnt/upload and created a temp folder there: /mnt/
upload/tmp.

On encoding, I get this error message:
Unable to transcode file 959489d0-f98c-012c-46fc-1231390a9532:
ArgumentError - comparison of Float with nil failed

and in the new tmp-folder, I find these files:

-rw-rw-rw- 1 root root 67 2010-02-11 22:42 959489d0-
f98c-012c-46fc-1231390a9532.mp4
-rw-rw-rw- 1 root root 2622 2010-02-11 22:42 959489d0-
f98c-012c-46fc-1231390a9532.mp4.temp.audio.mp4
-rw-rw-rw- 1 root root 24572 2010-02-11 22:42 959489d0-
f98c-012c-46fc-1231390a9532.mp4.temp.audio.wav
-rw-rw-rw- 1 root root 81602 2010-02-11 22:42 959489d0-
f98c-012c-46fc-1231390a9532.mp4.temp.video.mp4

where the 67-bytes-file contains this string:

ftypisomisom/freeIsoMedia File Produced with GPAC 0.4.4

I found a related issue here:

http://groups.google.com/group/pandastream/browse_thread/thread/e872ad944a1b08ca/4057c19808abebe2?lnk=gst&q=unable+to+transcode#4057c19808abebe2

and the answer is: it does not depend on the source video. If I leave
the temp folder on /var/tmp/videos, everything works fine.

Any hint strongly appreciated.

Hi,

I do recall at one point we had an odd bug with one of the tools, I think it was MP4Box, where if it was on a mounted drive it would baulk like this. I believe we avoid this by switching to the newer FFMpeg which supported aac and removed to need to use MP4Box.

Hope this helps.

Damien.
