I am trying to convert a file or microphone stream to 22050 sample rate and change tempo to double. I can do it using terminal with below code;
#ffmpeg -i test.mp3 -af asetrate=44100*0.5,aresample=44100,atempo=2 output.mp3
But i can not run this terminal code with python subprocess. I try many things but every time fail. Generaly i am taking Requested output format 'asetrate' or 'aresample' or 'atempo' is not suitable output format errors. Invalid argument. How can i run it and take a stream with pipe?
song = subprocess.Popen(["ffmpeg.exe", "-i", sys.argv[1], "-f", "asetrate", "22050", "wav", "pipe:1"],
stdout=subprocess.PIPE)

Your two commands are different. Try:
song = subprocess.Popen(["ffmpeg", "-i", sys.argv[1], "-af", "asetrate=22050,aresample=44100,atempo=2", "-f", "wav", "pipe:1"],
-af
is for audio filter.-f
is to manually set muxer/output formatUpvotes: 2

ffmpeg
interprets whatever supplied by -af
as a single argument that it would then parse internally into separate ones, so splitting them out before passing it via Popen
would not achieve the same thing.
The initial example using the terminal should be created using Popen
as
subprocess.Popen([
'ffmpeg', '-i', 'test.mp3', '-af', 'asetrate=44100*0.5,aresample=44100,atempo=2',
'output.mp3',
])
So for your actual example with pipe, try instead the following:
song = subprocess.Popen(
["ffmpeg.exe", "-i", sys.argv[1], "-f", "asetrate=22050,wav", "pipe:1"],
stdout=subprocess.PIPE
)
You will then need to call song.communicate()
to get the output produced by ffmpeg.exe
.
