Hitesh Rohilla asked:

Open original thread
I want to combine two videos

video details
-------------
1. Movie1.mp4 Video duration 62 seconds
2. Movie2.mp4 Video duration 8 seconds

I want to combine [overlay] these two videos with ffmpeg but what i want is that Movie2.mp4 repeat itself again and again and Movie1.mp4 runs as is.

i tried overlay command as follow

ffmpeg -i "Movie1.mp4" -i Movie2.mp4 -filter_complex overlay -shortest -y -q 0 output.mp4


but it results non repeating Movie2.mp4 and last frame of Movie2.mp4 continue after 8th second to 62th second in output video.

is there a way to do do this using ffmpeg

  3. If a question is poorly phrased then either ask for clarification, ignore it, or edit the question and fix the problem. Insults are not welcome.
  4. Don't tell someone to read the manual. Chances are they have and don't get it. Provide an answer or move on to the next question.
