As a beginner I don't know much about ffprobe and other video editing command line tools. Please guide me here.
I am trying to download a video with yt-dlp and trim it to the nearest key-frame of my starting interval.
That is, lets say, I want "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mZqWloHCjyY" this video from 00:04:30 to 00:04:40.
yt-dlp -o "output.%(ext)s" -S "res,asr,+abr,+size" --external-downloader ffmpeg --external-downloader-args "ffmpeg_i:-ss 00:4:30.00 -to 00:4:40.00 -avoid_negative_ts make_zero" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mZqWloHCjyY //to download the video
After download I am trying to get some information about 'only the first frame',
ffprobe -read_intervals "%+#1" -select_streams v -show_frames "output.mp4"
But there is no output.
Now if I remove -read_intervals "%+#1" I am getting information of all the frames.(But I want only first frame info)
Also I noticed if I use hard coded URL of video which I get with this command,
yt-dlp -S "res,asr,+abr,+size" --get-url https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mZqWloHCjyY
Then after I can get 'only the first frame data' with previous -read_intervals "%+#1".
ie now ffprobe -read_intervals "%+#1" -select_streams v -show_frames "URL from previous command" works
