I have videos in a folder unprocessed and i’m also using inotifywait to check the folder for new sub folders for videos and process them automatically….

Problem i have is with ffmpeg and stuttering audio in segments while video is smooth. I notice it’s just a small stutter like gibberish for 0.1ms in random segments but no desync. It’s annoying to have this small stutter. Also source MP4 file has smooth audio and video.

I have 100K+ Videos pending HLS processing and files have different dimensions i added the checks for it in the script but ffmpeg keeps messing with me :(. I’m quiet new to ffmpeg…

ffmpeg -y -loglevel error -i "$mp4_file" 
    -threads "$CPU_THREADS" 
    -c:v copy -c:a copy 
    -hls_time 4 -hls_segment_type mpegts 
    -hls_segment_filename "$variant_dir/segment.720.%03d.ts" 
    -hls_playlist_type vod 
    -hls_flags independent_segments 
    -f hls "$variant_dir/index.m3u8" 2>> "$ffmpeg_log"
