Can a Win10 GURU automate this solution for splitting videos upon resolution changes? [duplicate]

I have many video files (flv/mp4) that change resolution mid-stream (720p/1080p/640).

I would like to use something like ffmpeg to automatically detect the change in resolution and split the videos into their individual scenes, keeping their existing encoding quality: segment without re-encoding (Video1-scene1.flv, Video1-scene2.flv, etc).

I have found various methods to split upon silence, upon scene change, upon black scenes, but nothing as simple as a change in resolution width.

These files often cause video editors/trimmers to crash, and manually identifying and removing low resolution scenes is very time consuming if I simply convert the entire video to 1080p.

The algorithm is probably as simple as comparing the current frame to the previous frame, and if they are different resolutions, split the video and start a new segment.

Can anyone help please?

Using Lord Neckbeard's solution, I am attaching the (unfortunately very manual) process that I eventually got to work on Windows10. Perhaps it can spawn other ideas around ffmpeg.
(I posted a separate question for anyone who is GURU enough to: Automate this process...)

drag video onto a batch file that contains:

ffprobe -v error -show_entries frame=pkt_pts_time,width,height -select_streams v -of csv=p=0 %1 > allkeyframes.txt

(allkeyframes.txt sample...)

13.652000,640,480
13.755000,640,480
13.597000,480,360
13.652000,480,360

paste this text in POWERSHELL:

$o=""
$n=0
foreach($line in (Get-Content allkeyframes.txt)){
  $nline = $line.Split(",")
  $nline2=($nline[1]+$nline[2])
  if ($nline2 -ne $preventry) {
    $n0=$nline[0]
    $o="$o,$n0"
    $n=$n0
}
  $preventry = $nline2
}
if ($o.length -gt 1){
echo $o.Remove(0,1) > resolutionchanges.txt
} else {
Write-Host "No resolution changes found" -ForegroundColor Red
}

(resolutionchanges.txt:)

13.597000,25.618000,33.628000,45.598000

enter the following in the command window, after pasting contents of resolutionchanges.txt and changing "input.flv" to the video name (Win10 refused my attempts at batching this):

ffmpeg -i input.flv -map 0 -c copy -segment_times 13.597000,25.618000,33.628000,45.598000 -reset_timestamps 1 -f segment output_%03d.flv

Solution 1:

Lazyman solution is to use the scale filter to conform each input to a desired width x height.

For your proposed solution you can use ffprobe to determine when size changes occur.

ffprobe -v error -show_entries frame=pkt_pts_time,width,height -select_streams v -of csv=p=0 input.flv

Example output excerpt during width and height change (key_frame, pkt_pts_time, width, height):

0,89.081000,480,640
0,89.281000,480,640
0,89.481000,480,640
1,89.568000,640,480
0,89.592000,640,480
0,89.632000,640,480
1,97.749000,480,640

The size changes will likely occur on key frames which is where you can make the cuts if stream copying is a requirement. If you just want the key frames add the -skip_frame nokey option.

Then use the segment muxer:

ffmpeg -i input.flv -map 0 -c copy -segment_times 89.568,97.749 -reset_timestamps 1 -f segment output_%03d.flv
