awk assign output to variable

[killerwake]

hi guys,

can you help me in this part of code.

if i do:

mplayer -vo null -nosound -vf cropdetect Filename.mp4

the output is...

Audio: no sound
Starting playback...
Movie-Aspect is 1.50:1 - prescaling to correct movie aspect.
VO: [null] 720x480 => 720x480 Planar YV12
[CROP] Crop area: X: 719..0 Y: 479..0 (-vf crop=706:469:14:80).
[CROP] Crop area: X: 719..0 Y: 479..0 (-vf crop=705:467:14:80).
[CROP] Crop area: X: 719..0 Y: 479..0 (-vf crop=704:464:14:80).
[CROP] Crop area: X: 719..0 Y: 479..0 (-vf crop=704:464:14:80).

I just wanna get the "704" and "464" of the last line and i do:

mplayer -vo null -nosound -vf cropdetect Filename.mp4 | grep 'vf crop\=' | tail -1 | awk -F\= '{print $2}' | awk -F\: '{print $1, $2 }'

i get: 704 464

but i want to get assigned as a variable to be used in bash for continuing the script like: w=704 and h=464.

how i do? do you have a better and easy way to do it?

thanks!

you've done all the hard work. there are several ways to do this. one would be to just make the output of your command a variable, then split that variable up:

out=`mplayer -vo null -nosound -vf cropdetect Filename.mp4 | grep 'vf crop\=' | tail -1 | awk -F\= '{print $2}' | awk -F\: '{print $1, $2 }'`
varA=`echo $out|awk '{print $1}'`
varB=`echo $out|awk '{print $2}'`
