I'm trying to transcode(below just copy) a/v streams from stdin and generate a thumbnail simultaneously. The issue that I get an error pipe:: Invalid data found when processing input
.
Why is that and how can I fix it? Separately the map commands work just fine so I assume I'm incorrectly using the pipe functionality.
cat a2.mkv |ffmpeg -i - -y -map 0:0 -c:0 copy -f matroska 0.mkv -i - -y -map 0:0 -vf "select=gt(scene\\,0.4)" -frames:v 1 -vsync vfr -vf fps=fps=1/60 -codec png -f image2pipe 0.png
