I have a txt file with many MTS video files. I want to merge them all together using FFmpeg and get one big MTS file. But I want to apply fade-in and fade-out to the final video. Can I do it without re-encoding? Because re-encoding takes a lot of time, but I need to do it fast.
Edit
Here is the output when I run
ffmpeg -i C:/Users/aleks/Downloads/IMPORTANT/MTS_videos/my.MTS
Output:
Input #0, mpegts, from 'C:/Users/aleks/Downloads/IMPORTANT/MTS_videos/my.MTS':

Edit 2
ok, I think I figured it out. The problem was in audio codec, I added -c:a mp3
and it seems to be working. However now I have the second problem. I have 3 videos. I apply fade in to the first one, fade out to the third one and nothing to the second one. I get them from one video by slicing using this command 3 times
ffmpeg -i 'C:/Users/aleks/Downloads/video.MTS' -ss 20 -t 5 -c copy 'C:/Users/aleks/Downloads/third.MTS'
But when I run it my video is 2 seconds long (it must be 5 seconds long). Can you help me with fixing this problem.
PS. i have seen similar question and there was a suggestion to add -async 1
. It didn't help. And moving -t 5
to the position before -i
didn't help as well.
Also if I delete -c copy
everything works fine. But I need to keep it because I don't want to re-encode.
