I can extract the frames using below ffmpeg but it comes out 720x576 square pixel instead of anamorphic non-square 1024x576. How do I output 720x576 rectangle pixel as shown on TV?

How do i deinterlace the frames as output is interlaced?

ffmpeg -i Midnight.vob -vf fps=1,setdar=16:9 -q:v 2 Midnight%06d.jpg

How do i deal with this below in ffmpeg.

[swscaler @ 0000000002a8ec40] deprecated pixel format used, make sure you did set range correctly. Video: mjpeg, yuvj420p(pc).

Am I to understand that the video colour format is out of date and that (pc) is the range 0-255 for colours?

Settled on for large jpg to render then shrink to 1024x576. If deinterlace remove yadif=1.

ffmpeg -i input.vob -vf yadif=1,scale=4096x2304,setdar=16:9 -qmin 1 -q:v 1 output%06d.jpg

Jpg is original size 1024x576 square pixel.

ffmpeg -i input.vob -vf yadif=1,fps=1,scale=iw*sar:ih,setsar=1 -qmin 1 -q:v 1 output%06d.jpg

Png gives better quality over jpg.

Thanks for your contributions.

  • This is mediainfo dump, not the log of the ffmpeg command. – Gyan May 12 '19 at 08:41

  • re: size of the output jpg frames, you can simply use `-vf scale=1024x576` – Alex Cohn May 12 '19 at 09:28
  • @AlexCohn is this ok ffmpeg -i Midnight.vob -vf yadif=1,fps=1,scale=1024x576,setdar=16:9 -qmin 1 -q:v 1 Midnight%06d.png does the order of command matter? -q before -vf or what? Can i assume satdar no longer needed? I will be putting the images back together as video file so i need this bearing in mind. Thanks. – user10246830 May 12 '19 at 09:46
  • There is no substitute for trying few options. I don't think the **fps**, **yadif**, **setdar** or **-q** are necessary when you produce **jpg** images. Whether you use these **jpg** files later to produce a video file, does not matter. But only your experiments, based on your own input file(s) and workflow, must be trusted. – Alex Cohn May 12 '19 at 09:59
  • @user10246830 How are you viewing the output images? – Gyan May 12 '19 at 10:16
  • @AlexCohn `q` is used to set the quality level for the jpeg encoder. `yadif` is to deinterlace, else the JPEG image will be an interlacing of field pairs.JFIF can store aspect ratio (and ffmpeg does) so `setdar` will have an effect. No framerate is stored in JFIF files, but `fps` is being used here to pick one frame per second of input video, so it also has an effect. – Gyan May 12 '19 at 10:19
  • @Gyan Topaz gigapixel, Reshade, normal window picture viewer. – user10246830 May 12 '19 at 10:21
  • These probably don't apply JFIF aspect ratio. Scale to square pixel i.e. `scale=iw*sar:ih,setsar=1` – Gyan May 12 '19 at 11:25
