Copy all Streams of Media using ffmpeg

---

FAQ

• How to copy all streams of some media using ffmpeg
• Preserve all streams of some media, while spliting media
• Copy selected streams of media using ffmpeg

Generally media files has two streams, one for video and other one for audio, but when your media file has multiple streams, and you want to copy all those streams to some other media file when you trying to cut or split specific parts from media file.

Example 1

I have recorded some video using TechSmith CamTasia Studio, and it has more than two streams, and i wanna split this into multiple parts, so that i can easily edit in CamTasia Video Editor, and i am using ffmpeg for this.

Case 1 [ Let me show you details of this Media File ]

Result

• Now I can use this splited media file in CamTasia Video Editor
• ffmpeg is OpenSource and Free to use.
• You can download ffmpeg for Windows from https://ffmpeg.zeranoe.com/builds/
• -map 0 parameter force ffmpeg to select all streams inside media file
• -codec copy parameter is used to copy selected streams from media file
• -ss time parameter is used to specify, starting marker, its value can be either in seconds or hh:mm:ss.ssss format.
• -t time parameter is used to specify, ending marked, its value type is same as -ss parameter value.
