[Solved] "-an" ffmpeg parameter strips audio from online

I hope this is just something weird with my configuration but if so I can't find it.
[Spoiler alert - it was something with my configuration, not a bug, possibly failed to check 'include all available audio streams' on transcoding page, in any case reinstall fixed the problem]
I'm serving a video/audio stream from streamlink to Serviio and it's a valid Live Stream per the Serviio online source check.
When I check the stream from VLC (http://gamer:8081) it plays fine and VLC says it has stream 0 (h264/mpeg-4 part 10) and stream 1 audio with codec "ADTS"
ffmpeg -i reports it as mpegts, h264 (main) and aac

MediaBrowser using the stock html5 profile plays video with no audio (so does my Roku and sony blu-ray but let's stick with MB). When I look in the serviio log I this line:
OnlineTranscoding > [APPLE_HTTP/H264/AAC] > matcher: 1
which makes sense as the html5 profile says this:
<Video targetContainer="applehttp" targetVCodec="h264" targetACodec="aac" forceStereo="true">
<Matches container="*" />

Further testing with multiple profiles seems to show that the profile actually matches against container "flv" for this stream, NOT against mpegts despite what ffmpeg -i says.

So the thing that seems to be a bug is the ffmpeg invocation that gets created:
C:\Program Files\Serviio\bin\\..\lib\ffmpeg.exe -fflags +genpts -threads 0 -analyzeduration 10000000 -i http://gamer:8081 -y -c:v copy -bsf:v h264_mp4toannexb -an -map 0:0 -sn -f hls -hls_time 10 -hls_allow_cache 0 -hls_segment_filename E:\temp\Serviio\transcoding-temp-e0df80b28b6e48f1eb6bc26ab45e3a0d.stf\segment%05d.ts -hls_list_size 10 -hls_flags delete_segments E:\temp\Serviio\transcoding-temp-e0df80b28b6e48f1eb6bc26ab45e3a0d.stf\playlist.m3u8

The "-an" parameter strips out the audio stream and that's exactly what happens when I inspect the transcode files created by the MB transcode. All the .ts files have a video stream:
Video: MPEG4 Video (H264) 1280x720 29.971fps [V: h264 main L3.1, yuv420p, 1280x720]

But they have no audio stream. I've tried transcoding just the container, container and video, I've tried audio ac3, aac and mp3 and I've tried with the RokuMPApp and bdp2013 profiles (stock and modified ones I have in user-profiles) and the "-an" flag is still there.

Is there something I'm missing here? Some compatibility check of container/audio codec that's tripping me up? Does it matter what order the video/audio streams are in? I'm not an ffmpeg expert but this is what jumped out at me. Again I'm doing this with the standard html5 profile from application-profiles for MediaBrowser and if I use VLC to play the stream from streamlink at port 8081, the audio is definitely in place.

The "is it flv or is it mpegts" seems a bit confusing but regardless, the online transcoding section of the profile is definitely matching and kicking off ffmpeg like you would expect.

Before filing a bug ticket I wanted to post this to see if anybody sees something that I'm missing.

Edit: Also I see this post that had to do with ADTS although this was specific to Roku. Roku is one of my problems but this is happening with mediaBrowser too. viewtopic.php?f=5&t=29904&p=133531&hilit=adts#p133531

Also by the way if I tell Streamlink to save the file locally then it plays with audio and video just fine through MB so it's only as an online source that there is a problem. Putting the same target lines into the html5 "Online" section that worked in the "regular" section didn't solve the problem, the ffmpeg invocation was still with the "-an" flag.

can you post ffmpeg -i of the stream?

and also detailed log of trying to play the stream

Thanks for the followup, here's the ffmpeg -i (and I also tried the latest ffmpeg version, same results but this is the one bundled with serviio):

The last line reflects when it was still playing video with no audio and creating transcode files. It got matcher:1 appplehttp/h264/aac in the html5 profile which all looks normal.

I took an ffmpeg line that worked to transcode the local version of the file (Streamlink with a local file output instead of an http stream) and I just replaced the source file with http://gamer:8081 so here was the ffmpeg string:

ffmpeg.exe -fflags +genpts -threads 0 -i http://gamer:8081 -y -c:v copy -c:a:0 copy -map 0:0 -map 0:1 -sn -f hls -hls_time 10 -hls_allow_cache 0 -hls_segment_filename E:\temp\Serviio\transcoding-temp-bc071a561533ad90df2fd3f19c1a13b2.stf\segment%05d.ts -hls_list_size 0 E:\temp\Serviio\transcoding-temp-bc071a561533ad90df2fd3f19c1a13b2.stf\playlist.m3u8

This seems to work. It creates a playlist, it creates transcoded files that DO contain audio with these stream:
Video: MPEG4 Video (H264) 1280x720 29.971fps [V: h264 main L3.1, yuv420p, 1280x720]
Audio: AAC 44100Hz stereo 261kbps [A: aac lc, 44100 Hz, stereo, 261 kb/s]

So clearly ffmpeg CAN create files with audio from the stream given the correct parameters. I can't actually play this ffmpeg in mediabrowser because when I click on 'play' it submits it's own ffmpeg job and now I've got two of them chugging away trying to use the same transcode directory, playlist etc. But the .ts files in that directory from my manual ffmpeg invocation all have audio streams.

i noticed in the detailed log that I posted, the first ffmpeg invocation with "-analyzeduration" also had the -an parameter. For what it's worth, the -sn parameter to strip subtitles is in there too which I don't currently need but just FYI.

If you want to test this locally with the latest version of streamlink, this command line will create the same stream I'm using (a recent hockey game):
streamlink --player-external-http --player-external-http-port 8081 https://ok.ru/video/4605031811758 --default-stream best

Streamlink is here https://github.com/streamlink/streamlin ... /tag/5.0.1 and all the plugins are self-contained including the one for ok.ru so there is no need for any post-install configuration.

hmm, tried with this setup and works for me

  Code:

ffmpeg.exe -fflags +genpts -threads 0 -analyzeduration 10000000 -i http://192.168.0.4:8081/ -y -c:v copy -c:a:0 copy -map 0:0 -map 0:1 -sn -f hls -hls_time 10 -hls_allow_cache 0 -hls_segment_filename c:\temp\Serviio\transcoding-temp-21e9418f49a0d6f092d83a890b619872.stf\segment%05d.ts -hls_list_size 10 -hls_flags delete_segments c:\temp\Serviio\transcoding-temp-21e9418f49a0d6f092d83a890b619872.stf\playlist.m3u8


Basically the -an is added when there are no audio tracks found. Have you made any changes to your profiles?

Thanks for testing it out.

I do have a customized user-profiles.xml but profiles.xml and application-profiles.xml are standard.
I upgraded to the latest Serviio yesterday just in case that had anything to do with it but got the same results.
Were you able to test with the same URL that I posted?

I see where you get the second "map" parameter to handle the audio stream.

I know a lot of times when the PC lacks an audio or video codec that's a problem but in this case I can play the stream from the original web page and the http stream through vlc with audio so it shouldn't be that. I did an ffmpeg codec check and it showed a couple flavors of aac and ac3.

I'll try completely uninstalling & reinstalling Serviio and testing it without even touching user-profiles.xml. I'm on windows 11 home build 22621 although I woudn't think that would have anything to do with this particular problem. Seems like it's a problem specific to my system though.

It worked after reinstalling although I have a feeling that the problem was a lot simpler than that. After the reinstall I noticed the "include all available audio tracks" checkbox on the Transcoding page and I now have no idea whether I had that checked previously. I'll bet I did not have it checked. When I uncheck it now, I still get audio in mediabrowser although it may have just picked up the prior transcoding job so I haven't really done extensive testing. At any rate the audio works for me now and I learned some more while tinkering.

Thanks again for your help Petr!
