Analyse Waveforms
Posted by Darren Lee on July 10, 2018 at 9:35 amHi, is it possible detect the Audio alignment of 2 movies in FFMPEG?
You can do this in Premiere using synchronise, I just wondered if FFMPEG had the capability to analyse audio waveforms
Thanks

But if you have different sources, I don’t think there is anything.
In FFmpeg devel speak: ‘patch welcome’Bouke

Most people use common timecode for dual system sound. More reliable and very easy. Why do you want to go the most difficult route?

July 10, 2018 at 12:35 pmAh right. I’ll look into it, I have lots of footage that requires a syncing the boom/lavalier mic with the Camera. So it wouldn’t be daul sound it would be removing the Camera audio track completely and replacing it with the secondary audio file.
I was looking for an easier way than premiere.
Sorry if I’m not being too clear!

July 10, 2018 at 1:48 pmIf the audio is from another recorder than the camera, it’s dual system sound.
And if you want to replace the audio from the cam, that’s normal.
it all is very, very easy if you shoot with common timecode.
