Android-FFmpeg adding subtitle to mp4 video does not work

925 views Asked by At

I am trying to add srt file to a mp4 video using android mobile-ffmpeg , the code works with no error but the generated video does not contain the subtitle

here is the code :

 String cmd = "-i " + videoPath + " -vf subtitles=\"" + subtitlePath + ":force_style='Alignment=10,Fontsize=18'\" " + OutputVideoPath;
 FFmpeg.executeAsync(cmd, new ExecuteCallback() {
    @Override
    public void apply(final long executionId, final int returnCode) {
         if (returnCode == RETURN_CODE_SUCCESS) {
         } else {
             
         }
    }
 });

here are the logs

any idea why the generated video does not contain the subtitle ?

Update

Based on below comment , I changed my code to use the latest ffmpeg-kit version , here is the new code

String cmd = "-i " + videoPath + " -vf subtitles=\"" + subtitlePAth + ":force_style='Alignment=10,Fontsize=18\" " + 
   outputVideoPath;

   FFmpegKit.executeAsync(cmd, new FFmpegSessionCompleteCallback() {

        @Override
        public void apply(FFmpegSession session) {

        }
    }, new LogCallback() {

        @Override
        public void apply(com.arthenica.ffmpegkit.Log log) {


        }
    }, new StatisticsCallback() {

        @Override
        public void apply(Statistics statistics) {              

        }
    });`

and here is the updated log

I ran into the same problem and was able to fix it by reading the comments in this post.

As described here ffmpeg requires a valid fontconfig configuration to render subtitles. I achieved this by using the following code:

FFmpegKitConfig.setFontDirectoryList(context, Arrays.asList("/system/fonts", "app/src/main/assets/fonts"), Collections.EMPTY_MAP);

Change "app/src/main/assets/fonts" to where your font directory is located.
