I'm actually working to a project for music video generation using ffmpeg. I'd like to know if it's possibile to use ffmpeg itself or a combination of command line component under windows environment to make a visualization of audio spectrum (ahistogram ?) over a static background image like the one I found on the web:
Any ideas or coding tips?
ffmpeg -loop 1 -i background.png -i music.mp3 -filter_complex "[1]ahistogram=s=789x50:rheight=1[fg];[0][fg]overlay=(W-w)/2:H-h-10:shortest=1,scale='iw-mod(iw,2)':'ih-mod(ih,2)',format=yuv420p[v]" -map "[v]" -map 1:a -movflags +faststart output.mp4
Not exactly what you want, there is no option to create bars as in your image, but perhaps this will be good enough. See the ahistogram filter documentation for more options.
