Need a player for 265 videos in raw format

dns · 18th October 2023, 10:10

The stationary video recorder produces video in raw format, the files are obtained with the extension h264
ffplay, vlc, mpv don't play the file.

Code:

MediaInfo
Complete name				: C:\_vid\PL\IP camera_02_20230913_06.00.00-07.00.00[H][@220f5][1].h264
Format					: HEVC
Format/Info				: High Efficiency Video Coding
File size				: 174 Mb
FileExtension_Invalid			: hevc h265 265

Format					: HEVC
Format/Info				: High Efficiency Video Coding
Format profile				: Main@L3.1@Main
Width					: 1 280 pixels
Height					: 720 pixels
Display aspect ratio			: 16:9
Color space				: YUV
Chroma subsampling			: 4:2:0
Bit depth				: 8 бит
Color range				: Full
Color primaries				: BT.709
Transfer characteristics		: BT.709
Matrix coefficients			: BT.709

Yeah. The file turns out to be h265. I rename it, but it makes no sense.

ffplay -f hevc -i "IP camera_02_20230913_06.00.00-07.00.00[H][@220f5][1].h265"

It plays, but rewinding still doesn't work and writes an error in the console:

Code:

[hevc @ 000001d85e347b80] Invalid NAL unit 0, skipping.
[NULL @ 000001d85d81eb40] Invalid NAL unit 0, skipping.
    Last message repeated 6 times

But here's the catch, I had a player that showed it perfectly and rewinded the file. I lost it

Renamed to .h265 is played by mpc-hc or mpc-be.
But if you want rewind etc. the best option is mux it to .mkv with MkvToolNix, it create the needed indexes to play forward and backward.

I think I found that player (I searched for half a day).

It plays files beautifully and rewinding works great. But why, why does ffmpeg stumble?

At first I didn't realize that it was playing - until I saw the time code advancing.

Looks to work just fine, including reversing (& even though it does spit out, Invalid NAL, messages).

Code:

ffmpeg -i xxx.h265 -c copy out.mkv
