I have two streams, one audio and the other video. I'm trying to combine them using this command:
ffmpeg -y -i audio.m3u8 -i video.m3u8 -c copy Video.mp4
I found this syntax here:
- https://video.stackexchange.com/a/18216
- https://stackoverflow.com/a/60663842
- https://superuser.com/a/885958
The m3u8 playlists are below.
The problem is that, while the audio in the resulting video is smooth and uninterrupted, the video is not. ffmpeg seems to have plucked only certain frames from each 5-second video segment and merged them with the corresponding audio segment. In the resulting video, each of these frames displays for exactly two seconds before moving on to the next one. There is no motion in the video.
I can play a given video segment and it works fine (just no audio). I've randomly tested a dozen or so of these.
How can I successfully merge all of these audio and video segments into an mp4 video?
