Help needed on ffmpeg zoompan filter expression syntax

Question

I have the following command:

ffmpeg -loglevel verbose -y \
-i "https://my.domain/workspaces/473/RFP-107718.mp4" \
-i "https://my.domain/workspaces/473/margaritaville/palm_beach.png" \
-filter_complex "[0]drawbox=x=0:y=0:w=iw:h=ih:color=#FF0000@1:t=fill[padded];[0]format=yuva420p,pad=iw*2:ih*2:color=black@0,zoompan=z='if(lt(it,0),2,if(lte(pzoom,1.0),2,max(1.58,pzoom-0.005526315789473683)))':x=0:y=0:d=1:s=1920x1080[zp],[padded][zp]overlay=x='if(lt(t,3.04),t*20/3.04,20)':y='if(lt(t,3.04),t*18/3.04,18)':eval=frame[zp_stream],[1:v]scale=502:-1 [image1],[zp_stream][image1] overlay=1051.5078125:53.28906249999999:enable='between(t,0,10.048)' [overlay1]" -map "[overlay1]" -pix_fmt yuv420p -map 0:a -c:a copy "/usr/src/app/output/RFP-107718.mp4"

If i run it locally works without any errors, but when i run on Docker container i have the following error:

My local version is 5.0.1 on mac os, the container one is 4.1.9 on ubuntu

Here the docker file:

FROM node:16

ENV NODE_ENV=production

RUN apt-get -y update && \
    apt-get install -y  ffmpeg \
    build-essential libcairo2-dev libpango1.0-dev libjpeg-dev libgif-dev librsvg2-dev 

WORKDIR /usr/src/app
COPY . .
RUN npm ci --production --silent

CMD node src/index.js

Any hint to solve the issue is appreciated!

Thanks.

Answer 1

Edit: it is available from v4.4 onwards, so upgrade.

Escape the commas, e.g.

if(lt(t,3.04),t*20/3.04,20) becomes if(lt(t\,3.04)\,t*20/3.04\,20)
