PeerTube Performances Test Kit
Scripts to generate video files and live streams for performance testing of PeerTube
Dependencies
These scripts rely on :
ffmpeg
to generate the audio/video streams. Tested with ffmpeg versions:- 4.1.6
- 4.2.4
bc
to compute the encoding buffer size from the specified video bitrate
To install the dependencies on Debian 10 (Buster):
sudo apt install ffmpeg bc
Mains scripts
There are 4 main scripts :
- gen_pattern_sine.sh
generate video file with static pattern, time overlay (seconds elapsed from start) and sine wave stereo audio - gen_random_noise.sh
generate video file with random video, time overlay (seconds elapsed from start and local timestamp) and sine wave stereo audio - stream_pattern_sine.sh
send live stream and save a copy to file with static pattern, time overlay (seconds from start) and sine wave audio - stream_random_noise.sh
send live stream and save a copy to file with random video, time overlay (seconds elapsed from start and local timestamp) and sine wave audio
Run the scripts with no parameter for help.
The "random_noise" scripts are designed to produce video streams that are very hard to encode. These are to test worst case scenarii
The "pattern_sine" scripts produce video streams that are lighter to process (use less CPU to encode on peertube side) and compress to a smaller size.
Helper scripts
The other scripts are helpers that are just sortcuts to call the main scripts with some pre-defined parameters values. The names of these scripts should be self explanatory :
- gen_pattern_1080p_60s.sh
- gen_pattern_720p_60s.sh
- gen_random_1080p_60s.sh
- gen_random_720p_60s.sh
- stream_pattern_1080p_300s.sh
- stream_pattern_1080p_3600s.sh
- stream_pattern_720p_300s.sh
- stream_pattern_720p_3600s.sh
- stream_random_1080p_300s.sh
- stream_random_1080p_3600s.sh
- stream_random_720p_300s.sh
- stream_random_720p_3600s.sh
