Ant Media - Webrtc needed frame time from rtmp request

[Vivek Gupta]

We have a continuous playback, which is pushing data to AntMedia using FFMPEG, does where is any way to get frame information from AntMedia API / WebRTC OR We can use ffprobe to integrate any webhook to push data for getting current frame time info to our frontend.

Hi Vivek,

Have a good day.

We have some APIs for frame timestamps statistics. Why you need these details? Frame timestamps data are changeable that's why I'm asking. How do you want to get these data? Could you please give us more details about your requirements? It would great to understand your issue.

Best Regards,

Selim

Hi Vivek,

Sorry, It's my bad. Could you please tell me exactly what you want to do? Real-time timestamps are updated 30 times per second. Do you want to use the frame timestamp 30 times per second? If you do not want to get it like this, you can get timestamps of past frames by streaming to the HLS side with FFprobe.

Best Regards,

Selim

Hi Vivek,

Have a good day.

Here are the details.

1- Frame timestamps with HLS:

You can get timestamps as below command:

ffprobe streamId.m3u8 -select_streams v -show_entries frame=coded_picture_number,pkt_pts_time -of csv=p=0:nk=1 -v 0

Please check below guides:

https://superuser.com/questions/1466182/extract-timestamps-of-frames-from-mp4-video-using-ffmpeg-and-not-ffprobe

2- Frame timestamps with Ant Media Server plugin architecture:

This feature is in the test phase currently. I will share the SNAPSHOT version with you.

I hope, I could help you.

Best Regards,

Selim
