Use ffmpeg for live #4

ahmadd110 · 2020-04-23T06:09:32Z

The following code is related to the live stream of the file using ffmpeg via LevPasha/Instagram-API-python.
LevPasha/Instagram-API-python is dead!
Can you look at it and add this feature to your beautiful code?
Thanks a lot
Sincerely

`#!/usr/bin/env python

-- coding: utf-8 --
Use text editor to edit the script and type in valid Instagram username/password
import subprocess

from InstagramAPI import InstagramAPI

USERNAME = ''
PASSWORD = ''
FILE_PATH = ''
PUBLISH_TO_LIVE_FEED = False
SEND_NOTIFICATIONS = False

api = InstagramAPI(USERNAME, PASSWORD, debug=False)
assert api.login()

first you have to create a broadcast - you will receive a broadcast id and an upload url here
assert api.createBroadcast()
broadcast_id = api.LastJson['broadcast_id']
upload_url = api.LastJson['upload_url']

we now start a boradcast - it will now appear in the live-feed of users
assert api.startBroadcast(broadcast_id, sendNotification=SEND_NOTIFICATIONS)

ffmpeg_cmd = "ffmpeg -rtbufsize 256M -re -i '{file}' -acodec libmp3lame -ar 44100 -b:a 128k -pix_fmt yuv420p -profile:v baseline -s 720x1280 -bufsize 6000k -vb 400k -maxrate 1500k -deinterlace -vcodec libx264 -preset veryfast -g 30 -r 30 -f flv '{stream_url}'".format(
file=FILE_PATH,
stream_url=upload_url,
)

print("Hit Ctrl+C to stop broadcast")
try:
subprocess.call(ffmpeg_cmd, shell=True)
except KeyboardInterrupt:
print('Stop Broadcasting')

assert api.stopBroadcast(broadcast_id)

print('Finished Broadcast')

if PUBLISH_TO_LIVE_FEED:
api.addBroadcastToLive(broadcast_id)
print('Added Broadcast to LiveFeed')

With some adaptation yes, it's possible, it's not super friendly but will works, try this:

import json
import subprocess

from ItsAGramLive import ItsAGramLive

FILE_PATH = "/path/to/the/file/you/want/to/streaming"

live = ItsAGramLive()

broadcast_id = live.create_broadcast()

ffmpeg_cmd = "ffmpeg -rtbufsize 256M -re -i '{file}' -acodec libmp3lame -ar 44100 -b:a 128k -pix_fmt yuv420p " \
             "-profile:v baseline -s 720x1280 -bufsize 6000k -vb 400k -maxrate 1500k -deinterlace -vcodec libx264 " \
             "-preset veryfast -g 30 -r 30 -f flv '{stream_url}'" \
    .format(file=FILE_PATH, stream_url=live.LastJson['upload_url'])

data = json.dumps({'_uuid': live.uuid,
                   '_uid': live.username_id,
                   'should_send_notifications': int(live.sendNotification),
                   '_csrftoken': live.token})

if live.send_request(endpoint='live/' + str(broadcast_id) + '/start/', post=live.generate_signature(data)):

    print('CTRL+C to quit.')
    try:
        while True:
            subprocess.call(ffmpeg_cmd, shell=True)
    except KeyboardInterrupt:
        pass
    except Exception as error:
        print(error)
        live.end_broadcast(broadcast_id)

and run

python3 whatevername.py -u yourInstagramUsername -p yourPassword

ahmadd110 · 2020-04-24T05:46:02Z

Thank you very much for your attention to this feature.

When I run "python3 ffmpegmyfile.py -u Username -p Password"
In the first step shows that it has been successfully login.
In the second step shows url and streamkey.
In the third step again, the process is repeated from first step and shows that it has been successfully login and url and streamkey and this process is repeated (from first step).
On the Instagram page, Live start and end quickly, and this has happened several times.
Until it gives the following error in CMD:

Request return 400 error! {'message': 'Please wait a few minutes before you try again.', 'status': 'fail', 'error_type': 'rate_limit_error'} Traceback (most recent call last): File "ffmpegmyfile.py", line 10, in <module> broadcast_id = live.create_broadcast() File "C:\Users\my\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python38-32\lib\site-packages\ItsAGramLive\ItsAGramLive.py", line 208, in create_broadcast if self.login(): File "C:\Users\my\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python38-32\lib\site-packages\ItsAGramLive\ItsAGramLive.py", line 102, in login if self.LastJson['two_factor_required']: KeyError: 'two_factor_required' Press any key to continue . . .

harrypython · 2020-04-24T05:57:16Z

Are you using the last version?
Are you using 2FA on your Instagram account? If yes, what kind?

ahmadd110 · 2020-04-24T06:02:12Z

Are you using the last version? Yes
Are you using 2FA on your Instagram account? No

I think it showed this error because it login several times.
when I run again, it was login success, but it was repeated again and again.

Question: do you clone the project here or are you using pip?

I did a small modification, try again with this code:

             "-preset veryfast -g 30 -r 30 -f flv '{stream_url}'" \
    .format(file=FILE_PATH, stream_url=live.LastJson['upload_url'])

data = json.dumps({'_uuid': live.uuid,
                   '_uid': live.username_id,
                   'should_send_notifications': int(live.sendNotification),
                   '_csrftoken': live.token})

if live.send_request(endpoint='live/' + str(broadcast_id) + '/start/', post=live.generate_signature(data)):

    print('CTRL+C to quit.')
    try:
        subprocess.call(ffmpeg_cmd, shell=True)

The code I put below is code for live stream via Instagram with FFmpeg and php (mgp25/Instagram-API)
I don't know if this is helpful or not
But it's a good idea to take a look at it

I think it showed this error because it login several times.

There is no reason to login several times, the code it's working fine for me.
Please send me the script ffmpegmyfile.py and the output of this commands:

Sorry ☹️, I am not being able to reproduce your results.

Try to check the spaces of your code one last time, maybe debugging line by line (I recommend PyCharm)

As a last resort open a question on the stackoverflow.

ahmadd110 · 2020-04-25T11:52:43Z

Thank a lot for your efforts
in LevPasha/Instagram-API-python there is "assert api.startBroadcast(broadcast_id, sendNotification=SEND_NOTIFICATIONS)" before ffmpeg code. Doesn't that matter?

harrypython · 2020-04-25T16:28:51Z

No, the point is: I'm not able to reproduce your error/results and it's working for me 乁( •_• )ㄏ

From #26 - @harrypython, is it possible to update this python script in order to stream using ffmpeg cli? I know you said that it's better to create 2 separate processes for this but in my case I can only do it using bash, but I think I will have an issue getting the Key (the only thing I need) since your tool calls an interactive CLI... By the time my bash script extracts the Key, it might leave the IG session and the Key won't be valid anymore (?)

shelomito12 · 2020-11-12T19:15:05Z

How to add code to the following simple script in order to just print the Server Key?

from ItsAGramLive import ItsAGramLive

# live = ItsAGramLive()

live = ItsAGramLive(
    username='foo',
    password='bar'
)

live.start()

For example, I just need 17866777868136769?s_hv=0&s_sw=0&s_vt=ig&a=Abw768iHvM9bumF0 printed to the output:

Let's do it!
You'r logged in
