Uniqueizing video with ffmpeg | My experience in creating YouTube Doorways

The parameters of the video that need to be changed and where to enter the values in the line I wrote above. As I understand it, you need the installation process, an example of using these commands with screenshots, an example of processing a real project, how to make a list of commands to execute in a row and automate them.

This is the next post format that I'm going to do, but how should you understand that it takes time, especially if you need to describe everything in detail with a picture.

I have my own software that I did to create my videos through ffmpeg, but I'm afraid I have no right to promote it on the forum. But I can advise what kind of logic should be in it and on what it can be written so that it is not expensive for other developers.

Thanks I’ll follow you and look out for your guide then, that will be awesome

I will try to let him in as early as possible. You and other readers of this thread can still ask questions that are worth explaining in the new thread if I can not briefly answer this.

So with this you can make copyroghted videos look like they are unique?

Usually I created several videos in a video editor using templates and only then multiplied them, so I didn't have any copyright problems.

But if you use other people's videos, you need to change the content to make it harder for YouTube to parallel with the original. Since usually the algorithms that are responsible for copyright are good at recognizing what is happening on the video. Here are some tips:

1. Use part of someone else's video, not all. If these are short videos like Tiktok, trim a few seconds at the beginning or at the end. This will change the length compared to the original and will not change much of the video series.

2. Image reflection can work well here.

3. If we are talking about sound (music for example in the background) try to distort it so that it does not look like the original. Changing the volume won't be enough here. I do not work with svuk, but I think there are online services where you can download audio and change bass and other sound parameters)

4. Use filters that break the lines of objects in the video. This can be an overlay animation (for example, falling sparks or something that suits the topic) or a static image with patterns and a degree of transparency, say 25-75% (this method works well for uploading porn to YouTube)

5. Changing Brightness and Contrast))

Im gonna give it a try and combine the ffmpeg method with these and see how it goes.
Till last year I managed to avoid copyright claim using Sony Vegas and doing some hard editing but the algorithm now got stronger

never used ffmpeg before but reading your tips i feel optimistic about it

Valuable information. Thanks so much

Let me know what result in practice my advice gave you. Perhaps in the process we can improve the methods

Using this script

ffmpeg -i yourvideo.mp4 -vf hflip -c:a copie output.mp4

@FiveForwardSlash
I am very glad to read your article, because English is not my native language, so I am worried that my understanding will be biased.
Are you talking about using FFMPEG to bypass copyright and make the video unique, right?

I have the following questions, I hope to get your answers:
1: Can I use these FFMPEG codes to bypass the TV series copyright?
2: I use these ffmpeg to make the video unique, I only need to use one video as a master, I can copy countless unique videos, and upload to the youtube channel will not be recognized as duplicate content (unless it is manually reviewed)

vedeva · Jul 18, 2021

so, I have this set of picture as a filter, a watermark, and a few sec video as a short transitions. the question is, when will someone write a cl tool with ffmpeg to use with a set of images, videos, audios, etc.

this is suck when you're not coder xd
manually editing copyrighted footage is tiring, lol

Did you know that you can link your scripts to perform mass processing!

Vlad2012 · Jul 18, 2021

@FiveForwardSlash do you know how to process multiple videos with this script ?

ffmpeg -y -i input.mp4 -i filter.png -af "[0:a]atempo=1.15,volume=1.6,pan=stereo|c0<c0+0*c1|c1<c0+0*c1,aeval=val(0)|-val(1)" -filter_complex "[0:v]setpts=PTS/1.15,crop=iw/1.2:ih/1.2,boxblur=1:2,scale=1280:720 [v1]; [v1][1:v]overlay=0:0,setdar=16/9" -vcodec libx264 -pix_fmt yuv420p -r 30 -g 60 -b:v 1400k -profile:v main -level 3.1 -acodec libmp3lame -b:a 128k -ar 44100 -metadata title="" -metadata artist="" -metadata album_artist="" -metadata album="" -metadata date="" -metadata track="" -metadata genre="" -metadata publisher="" -metadata encoded_by="" -metadata copyright="" -metadata composer="" -metadata performer="" -metadata TIT1="" -metadata TIT3="" -metadata disc="" -metadata TKEY="" -metadata TBPM="" -metadata language="eng" -metadata encoder="" -threads 0 -preset superfast output.mp4

Anyone please help, how i zoom in and zoom out after 4 seconds Everytime with FFMPEG

Here are two examples of how you can do this with the zoompan filter. They both do the same thing, zoom in toward the center of the image to 2x zoom for the first 3 seconds of every 10 second block of time. Adjust as needed. And you do have to set the FPS for the filter to match the input.

ffmpeg -i VIDEO.mp4 -vf "zoompan=z='if(lte(mod(time,10),3),2,1)':d=1:x=iw/2-(iw/zoom/2):y=ih/2-(ih/zoom/2):fps=29.97" OUT.mp4

ffmpeg -i VIDEO.mp4 -vf "zoompan=z='if(gte(time,ld(1)+10),st(1,time)*0,if(ld(1),if(lt(time,ld(1)+3),2,1)))':d=1:x=iw/2-(iw/zoom/2):y=ih/2-(ih/zoom/2):fps=29.97" OUT.mp4

The documentation says the input timestamp constant is "in_time", but that seems to be inaccurate as it only works as "time" in my build anyway.

If you want your video zoom in for 5s then it back original video try this script :

ffmpeg -i test.mp4 -vf "zoompan=z='1+(0.005*in/24)':d=1" -threads 0 -preset recadrage ultra-rapide-100-fc.mp4

Try this

ffmpeg -i VIDEO.mp4 -vf "zoompan=z='if(lte(mod(time,5),3),2,1)':d=1:x=iw/2-(iw/zoom/2 ):y=ih/2-(ih/zoom/2):fps=29.97" OUT.mp4

or

ffmpeg -i VIDEO.mp4 -vf "zoompan=z='if(gte(time,ld(1)+5),st(1,time)*0,if(ld(1),if(lt(time, ld(1)+3),2,1)))':d=1:x=iw/2-(iw/zoom/2):y=ih/2-(ih/zoom/2):fps= 29.97" OUT.mp4
