Stéphane,<div><br></div><div>Thank you again for all the information.</div><div>So, let me try to explain what I am doing.</div><div>First of all, I want to take a video from a source and save it to local files, splitting the files depending on a maximum time threshold that I choose. I do this using GStreamer as a C library and building an ad-hoc pipeline; and it works pretty good for now. </div><div>Basically the pipeline I made it's similar to this one (using the gst-launch tool): > <i>gst-launch-1.0 videotestsrc ! video/x-raw,width=1280,height=720,framerate=30/1 ! avenc_mpeg4 ! splitmuxsink location=video%02d.mkv max-size-time=60000000000</i></div><div><i><br></i></div><div>Now, from another program, I want to retrieve one or two consecutive videos (and I want also to concatenate them in that case) previously saved, seek on the video given a certain start and end position, and save the final video on the local disk as .mkv or .mp4 video (actually, I want to send the final video to an AWS S3 bucket but I think that is not the point).</div><div><br></div><div>As I said, the problem occurs when I try to seek on the video (read by splitmuxsrc GStreamer element) and save it to local file, the final video is not playable with any media player (furthermore when I use matroskamux as muxer I noticed that the seek function <span style="background-color:initial;font-family:Consolas,Monaco,"Andale Mono","Ubuntu Mono",monospace;font-size:inherit;word-spacing:normal;color:black">gst_element_seek_simple(...) </span>returns me false and no seek is performed on the video).</div><div><br></div><div>Best regards,</div><div><br></div><div>Niccolò</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Fri, Feb 11, 2022 at 6:31 PM stefan cervo <<a href="mailto:scerveau@gmail.com">scerveau@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="auto"><div dir="ltr">Hey Niccolo,</div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">You can give a try to install this package to get nleurisource: </div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr"><a href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__packages.ubuntu.com_focal_ges1.0-2Dtools&d=DwMFaQ&c=MPZC0Rv-kl4oeK4li6Jc92hnsiCC4tOZO_GSKscRWJE&r=q0NOer1O8Xyr6lvRfA9B9on0LnGsWgl35ZFEi2s37Yc8DjlDs22kJZbYHLduupQF&m=cvlHfu51U6_I-jawIs7VyC7M0yhMNyeiDSadir8xmRh_b6j2n0tzSXD0L7nkXnnz&s=Wgj7BoA8BlAHIK-LCUKR72ZLTUQmlgVvvVsTUdpvr5E&e=" target="_blank">https://packages.ubuntu.com/focal/ges1.0-tools</a></div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">Regarding the splitmuxsrc scenario could you explain in details what you’d like to achieve ?</div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">Best regards</div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr">Stéphane.</div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr"><br><blockquote type="cite">Le 11 févr. 2022 à 17:16, Bellaccini, Niccolo <<a href="mailto:niccolo.bellaccini@verizonconnect.com" target="_blank">niccolo.bellaccini@verizonconnect.com</a>> a écrit :<br><br></blockquote></div><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr">Hi Stephane,<div><br></div><div>Thank you very much for the reply.
