sitespeed.io: Sitespeed 7.0.0-alpha.2 hanging in DEBUG: [root] Converting video to viewable format.
Hello! I was trying out 7.0.0-alpha.2 today, and it’s still hanging on this line:
[2018-05-15 21:24:30] DEBUG: [root] Converting video to viewable format.
I’m running with the following commands in Jenkins:
docker pull sitespeedio/sitespeed.io:7.0.0-alpha.2
docker run --rm --privileged --shm-size=1g -v ${WORKSPACE}:/sitespeed.io sitespeedio/sitespeed.io:7.0.0-alpha.2 --outputFolder output $TARGET_URL -b firefox --debug -v
I’ve attached a screenshot of it in Jenkins, as well as the full logfile.

@soulgalore confirmed FIXED; thanks!

Pretty confident now that I fixed it when I could reproduce the issue so I released a new alpha: 7.0.0-alpha.4
Thanks @stephendonner hmm no luck there but it looks like it could help by turning off stdin, we missed that https://stackoverflow.com/questions/16523746/ffmpeg-hangs-when-run-in-background
I’ll make a patch later today. Thanks for taking the time to try things out.
