ffmpeg exited with code 1: Error reinitializing filters!
Failed to inject frame into filter network: Invalid argument

[SagiMedina]

did you find any solution?

[h2non]

Ensure you have ffmped compiled with all the required library bindings, such as libass, libmp3lame...

[cvalenzuela]

I had the same error because my images were not all the same size.
Resize them and try again.

[h2non]

yeah, you must use same size image. Note that's documented in the README.

[deepakpapola]

thanks

I'm having this issue and I know is due to the caption key in the images node. If I delete the caption finishes ok.

[ghost]

I solved by installing ffmpeg with all deps on OSX with brew.
If you need all support run:

brew uninstall --ignore-dependencies --force ffmpeg

brew install ffmpeg --with-chromaprint --with-fdk-aac --with-fontconfig --with-freetype --with-frei0r --with-game-music-emu --with-libass --with-libbluray --with-libbs2b --with-libcaca --with-libgsm --with-libmodplug --with-libsoxr --with-libssh --with-libvidstab --with-libvorbis --with-libvpx --with-opencore-amr --with-openh264 --with-openjpeg --with-openssl --with-opus --with-rtmpdump --with-rubberband --with-schroedinger --with-sdl2 --with-snappy --with-speex --with-tesseract --with-theora --with-tools --with-two-lame --with-wavpack --with-webp --with-x265 --with-xz --with-zeromq --with-zimg

[colinhacks]

It would be great if the error was more informative. Just run a sanity check on the image sizes before running the ffmpeg command so ffmpeg doesn't fail in such an obscure way.

What the image caption is?

[jaisharmaimcl]

Captions are simple i am trying on example file.

Caption is - This is a sample subtitle

[jaisharmaimcl]

Complete file is ---

var videoshow = require('../')

var audio = __dirname + '/../test/fixtures/song.mp3'

var options = {
loop: 5,
captionDelay: 350,
transition: true,
useSubRipSubtitles: false, // Use ASS/SSA subtitles instead
subtitleStyle: {
Fontname: 'Verdana',
Fontsize: '26',
PrimaryColour: '11861244',
SecondaryColour: '11861244',
TertiaryColour: '11861244',
BackColour: '-2147483640',

Outline: '2',
Shadow: '3',

}
}

var images = [

}, {

caption: 'Bye bye'
}
]

videoshow(images, options)
.audio(audio)
.save('video.mp4')
.on('start', function (command) {
console.log('ffmpeg process started:', command)
})
.on('error', function (err) {
console.error('Error:', err)
})
.on('end', function (output) {
console.log('Video created in:', output)
})

I don't remember how I fixed that error, but I do that properties are very weak coded. Sometimes less properties and more stable ideas make the code work. I remember I was playing a lot with them but finally I think it was a code issue... I unsuscribe from this thread. Good luck.

[jaisharmaimcl]

Hi All is it possible to add different font color and alignment for particular image

For anyone interested, I created a tool which is similar to this one, but also supports videos and a lot more transitions, animations and components Hopefully useful for some of you: https://github.com/mifi/editly

How have you solved your problem?

[Immanuel-john]

I had the same error because my images were not all the same size.
Resize them and try again.

Same size means, are you telling about the image file size or image dimensions? Kindly clarify

[h2non]

Used images must have symmetric width and height pixel dimensions.

[manindercingh]

hey i also facing this issue :
Failed to inject frame into filters network : Invalid argument
command is : "-y -i " + input.mp4 + " -vf eq=brightness=0.06:saturation=2 -c:a copy " + output.mp4"
this command used to apply filter in the video

any one please help!

I have encountered the following error, and after investigation, I have found that it is caused by an issue with the @ ffmpeg installer/ffmpeg package. May I ask if there is a good solution?

The pseudocode is as follows:

const ffmpeg = require("fluent-ffmpeg");
const ffmpegPath = require("@ffmpeg-installer/ffmpeg");
ffmpeg.setFfmpegPath(ffmpegPath.path);
...
 ffmpeg()
    .input(vpath)
    .input(watermarkImg)
    .inputOptions("-filter_complex", "overlay=100:10")
    .on("error", function (err) {
      console.log("fail: " + err.message);
    })
    .on("end", function () {
      console.log("success ");
    })
    .save(`${outputFolder}/demo.mp4`);

The error is as follows:

Error: ffmpeg exited with code 1: Error reinitializing filters!
Failed to inject frame into filter network: No such file or directory
Error while processing the decoded data for stream #0:0
Conversion failed!
