    Hi, you want to produce fmp4 segments or split into multiple "progressive" mp4s? one of these examples might be useful: https://github.com/Eyevinn/mp4ff/tree/master/cmd/mp4ff-crop https://github.com/Eyevinn/mp4ff/tree/master/examples/segmenter
  • mp4ff - beyond MP4 boxes
    1 project | dev.to | 31 Jan 2023
    Part 30 of the MPEG-4 standard describes how TTML and WebVTT subtitles shall be carried in MP4 files. The approaches are very different. For TTML, the original XML structure is used, and there is typically a single sample per segment. That sample is a complete TTML XML document with internal time stamps. Beyond text, it can also provide image subtitles and carry such images as subsamples. The codecs attribute for such a file is stpp, and there is an [stpp] box that should be included in the track sample descriptor. mp4ff supports all relevant boxes.
