How to copy not recognized streams on conversion with FFmpeg?












0















I am trying to compress some Videos using FFmpeg, that contain multiple streams, some of them not recognized by FFmpeg:

When I use ffmpeg -i $file -c:v libx265 -crf 23 -c:a libvorbis -q:a 5 $newfilename, only the audio and the video stream ends up in the new file. So I tried ffmpeg -i $filename -map 0 -c copy -c:v libx265 -crf 23 -c:a libvorbis -q:a 5 $newfilename, but that gives me the following error:



[mp4 @ 0xf974ce7d500] Could not find tag for codec none in stream #2, codec not currently supported in container
Could not write header for output file #0 (incorrect codec parameters ?): Invalid argument
Error initializing output stream 0:0 --


I know that FFmpeg does not understand that additional metadata, but it doesn't need to. How can I just copy the streams with codec none into the new file?

  • In theory, the answer is to add -copy_unknown but those tracks in the output may not be usable.

  • Thanks, I'll give that a try, as soon as I find the time :) I don't want those output tracks to be usable, I just want them to be a 1:1 copy of the input tracks, for later use. This is metadata for GPS, accelerometer and stuff during the video.
