Undefined offset: in PHPVideoToolkit->getFFmpegInfo()

Same thing I am getting. Have you also installed the Video Presets mod? Because I am not getting any of the Video or audio codecs outputs showing up as well.
My "FFmpeg version 19215 found".

Undefined offset: in PHPVideoToolkit->getFFmpegInfo()

has been fixed.

Have you also installed the Video Presets mod?

you need to install the video preset module for video conversions.

I've got the same issue.
@anglo do you see the Video codes? or are the drop down boxes empty. Mine are empty.

@anglo apparently they are not supposed to be empty.

I had empty drop down boxes at one time. Drupal ffmpeg pull these from your version info of ffmpeg.
I found that I had to clear all caches after loading or working with ffmpeg. You must supply absolute paths to ffmpeg and flvtools, clear caches, check drupal status for correct ffmpeg version, then the drop downs will populate.

@clbeam likewise as @anglo cleared all caches many many times. Drupal status shows the right ffmpeg version.
Including three "Notice: Undefined offset: 2 in PHPVideoToolkit->getFFmpegInfo() (line 611, 626, 641..."

Drop downs still don't populate.

The problem is on line 594 in video/libraries/phpvideotoolkit/phpvideotoolkit.php5.php. 'configuration' should come before 'formats' in the $look_ups array. Works correctly after they're reversed.

@Lazarus-Long Thank-you! That worked.

Hi, since I'm on a shared host (GoDaddy, I doubt that FFmpeg is configured for transcoding video. When I set FFmpeg as the transcoder, I get a message "FFmpeg found on your system" and there's a path to the executable. However, I get the following notice:

Notice: Undefined offset: 0 in PHPVideoToolkit->getFFmpegInfo() (line 578 of /html/sites/all/modules/video/libraries/phpvideotoolkit/phpvideotoolkit.php5.php).
Notice: Undefined offset: 0 in PHPVideoToolkit->getFFmpegInfo() (line 578 of /html/sites/all/modules/video/libraries/phpvideotoolkit/phpvideotoolkit.php5.php).

Notice: Undefined index: in PHPVideoToolkit->getFFmpegInfo() (line 641 of /html/sites/all/modules/video/libraries/phpvideotoolkit/phpvideotoolkit.php5.php).

I'm using version 7.x-2.3 and I'm wondering if I'm missing something.

Thanks.

@starapple did you apply the patch in #13 or the solution in #11?

@gumdrop the presets list shows fine in my installation as the Video Presets module is installed and enabled. I think that's what #11/13 patch tried to fix. Maybe it's just that the server doesn't allow access to FFmpeg. Thanks.

@starapple your problem is with the way phpvideotoolkit detects ffmpeg. You don't have access to ffmpeg on that system.

You can confirm it by making a short PHP script:

exec('ffmpeg -formats', $buffer);
var_dump($buffer);

For the discovery to fail, $buffer needs to contain "command not found" or "No such file or directory". Anything else will show FFmpeg as detected (even "Permission denied").

Also, this isn't related to the bug in this issue.

undefined index errors - this is B----S! closed as a duplicate

Hi

@Lazarus-Long I applied your patch, but still was getting some errors, so I changed the code on the lookups. Take a look at it, it worked for me.

does this work for 7.x-2.4
thanks!!

Same error, I have ffmpeg already install in my server, I check with info.php, but Drupal won't recognize the ffmpeg. The URL of the absolute path is seem to be good too : /usr/bin/ffmpeg and it's possible to execute an .exe

Any advises to solve that would be good.

I simply solve this by comment the following line in php.ini

; disable_functions = show_source, system, shell_exec, passthru, exec, popen, proc_open

Hope this help.

Please stop hijacking this thread with unrelated issues!

As of today, the undefined offset error is still present in 7.x-2.x-dev. Accompanied by the error, the video output extension, video codec, and audio codec fields are unpopulated.

Applying the patch in #13 fixes the error and causes the fields to populate.

The patch in #25 fails to apply.

Please put the patch from #13 into dev.

#3 doesn't solve the problem for me.

#25 The patch format is not good. Please use git to make your patch.

Please retest this issue on the latest 7.x-2.x-dev release, as I have made some changes. Please also reroll the patch(es) if they are still needed.

The attached patch is still required for me to avoid the PHP warnings, and have anything populated in the codec boxes against the prefixes, as per comment #13.

This is on a fresh install of Pressflow 7 with video from git (7.x-2.x branch), video_presets (7.x-2.x-dev).

leewilis77: Could you post the exact error messages / warnings you get when you do not have the patch?

Also, could you post the output of ffmpeg -formats? It should not be needed to move the configuration part of the array because every ffmpeg output starts with a list of the configuration settings.

I see the following when I visit the transcoder config page, which line numbers aside appears to be the same issue originally reported

Notice: Undefined offset: 2 in PHPVideoToolkit->getFFmpegInfo() (line 612 of /home/webserver/videodebug/sites/all/modules/video/libraries/phpvideotoolkit/phpvideotoolkit.php5.php).
Notice: Undefined offset: 1 in PHPVideoToolkit->getFFmpegInfo() (line 627 of /home/webserver/videodebug/sites/all/modules/video/libraries/phpvideotoolkit/phpvideotoolkit.php5.php).
Notice: Undefined offset: 3 in PHPVideoToolkit->getFFmpegInfo() (line 642 of /home/webserver/videodebug/sites/all/modules/video/libraries/phpvideotoolkit/phpvideotoolkit.php5.php).

I've attached the output of ffmpeg -formats with, and without STDERR included, e.g.
$ ffmpeg -formats > /tmp/ffmpeg_formats.txt
$ ffmpeg -formats > /tmp/ffmpeg_formats_with_stderr.txt 2>&1

I'm sorry that I have to ask another thing, but can you post the output of:

ffmpeg -codecs 2>&1
ffmpeg -bsfs 2>&1
ffmpeg -protocols 2>&1

Attached.

I have tried to investigate this issue, but after looking for a long time my conclusion is that the regular expression evaluator is confused because of the many "configure: " texts. I have committed the patch because it seems to work around the issue. The patch will be visible in the next 7.x-2.x-dev release, which gets built in the next 24 hours.

alrighty I'm having the same issue as the first post. I have the 7.x-2.x-dev from Mar-18. On line 619 of phpvideotoolkit.php5.php it reads:

preg_match('/' . implode('(.*)', $pregs) . '(.*)/s', $buffer, $matches);

I have confirmed that $matches is empty after this statement. I have the windows version 0.8 of ffmpeg. The regex that is created is this:

/configuration: (.*)File formats:(.*)Codecs:(.*)Bitstream filters:(.*)Supported file protocols:(.*)/s

The output of var_dump($buffers) is included. It would seem that in my case, "File Formats" comes before "configuration" contrary to the changes made in posts #11 and #13. Is there a specific version of FFmpeg that you recommend I use? If not should I just reverse the order of the $look_ups array?

The configuration part should be included in every part of the buffer. What is the output of ffmpeg -formats for you?

It was long so I will attach it to my next post

Here you go

It does appear to have my configuration in my buffer but after the File Formats section. This seems to be why the regex isn't matching.

Well, if I look in your formats.txt, there is a configuration section before the File formats: section. I wonder why it is not showing up in your $buffer.

Sigh. I think it is showing up in my buffer just after the File formats section. I compared it to the output of ffmpeg -formats and it seems to match. Any reason that it would appear after the File formats section? Perhaps because of the change made in post #11

You formats.txt says:

File formats:

.E = Muxing supported

I can't say for sure why but line 524 reads:

exec($command . ' 2>&1', $buffer, $err);

and it is initializing buffer to the contents above when line 585 is called:

$buffer = self::_captureExecBuffer($this->_ffmpeg_binary . ' -formats', $tmp_dir);

Something strange about php's exec function is causing the configuration section to appear after the File Formats section with my version of PHP (5.3.8). I will continue with my modified version of the Video Module code.

Many of the errors in this section may be related to the PHP and/or FFmpeg versions being used. If that is the case I would post recommended versions in the Module description.

and since the Regex is being run on this, it doesn't match when it looks for configuration first

I have refactored the entire method to get rid of the regular expression. I have attached a replacement file to this comment.

Could you:

1) Replace the file libraries/phpvideotoolkit/phpvideotoolkit.php5.php with the attached file
2) Clear the Drupal cache
3) See if the errors are gone
4) And if everything is still working properly

Looks good to me.

leewillis77: does the attached file from comment #49 also work for you?

It does work. Forgive my ambiguity.

Hi Jorrit,

I can't test this unfortunately as both machines that exhibited this problem have been upgraded and no longer exhibit the problem - which was presumably specific to the version in use originally.

What do you mean by "upgraded"? If you mean "upgraded to the latest 7.x-2.x-dev version", my request to you is if you could still try the attached version of phpvideotoolkit.php5.php on top of the already working -dev version.

Ah - no - sorry. The machines have been upgraded from Ubuntu 11.10 to Ubuntu 12.04.

The version supplied on Ubuntu 12.04 (Which is actually a compatibility app provided by libav rather than a "real" copy of ffmpeg), appears to work without any patches necessary.

I'm happy to apply the patch and check it *still* works, but I'm not sure if that would prove that the patch solves the problem?

Well, it would prove that it also works in environments other than mine and balornt's. When it comes to ffmpeg, I have discovered that there can be many, many different environments. So if you could test the changed file, that would be very much appreciated!

The file attached in #49 seems to work fine for me.

Using the patch in #49 and "upgrading" to the development version does work.

balornt, leewillis77, corporate: thanks for testing.
