Find IDR frames in HVEC?

[Travillion]

How can I get a list of IDR frames from an HVEC stream? With h264 streams I would convert to raw h264 and then use framecounter to produce a text file of each frame and it's type. I tried that with an HVEC stream (converted to raw h265 with ffmpeg) but framecounter wouldn't accept the 265 file as input.

Thanks in advance.

ffprobe -v error -skip_frame nokey -show_entries frame=pkt_pts_time -select_streams v -of csv=p=0 input
0.000000
2.502000
3.795000
6.131000
10.344000

I assume frame=pkt_pts_time could be change to give you eg. frame number instead of time.

other ways are there as well using ffmpeg itself:

it's called HEVC, not HVEC, by the way

As a side note: Code patches for FrameCounter (https://github.com/Selur/FrameCounter) to not only count hevc frame but also output their frame type are welcome. ;)

Doh! I knew that.... High Video Efficiency Coding just doesn't have the same ring to it.

Believe me if I knew coding I would help! I've used and loved your framecounter for a few years now.
