I am trying to insert an audio channel with a video:

1. first of all I extract the audio from the original video for processing:

   ffmpeg -i lotr.mp4 lotr.wav

2. I then extract all frames for later processing too:

   ffmpeg -i lotr.mp4 -f image2 %d.jpg

3. When done processing audio and video streams, I try to create the vide开发者_开发知识库o

   ffmpeg -f image2 -r 15 -i %d.jpg new.mp4

4. then merge with the audio:

   ffmpeg -i new.mp4 -i lotr.wav -map 0:0 -map 1:0 new_w_audio.mp4

Result: CPU activity = 100%, the process hangs and never returns. PS: I even tried it without modifying the images or the audio (so just trying to unpack then repack the video) but still the same output

Any luck with the problem?

Sounds like you have a broken install of ffmpeg for it to hang and consume so much CPU. I recommend removing it completely and starting over.

Good luck.
