ffmpegd

An FFmpeg server with a websocket API for FFmpeg Commander.

The goal is to provide a simple interface for sending FFmpeg jobs from the browser (and other supported clients in the future) while reporting realtime progress details.

*Currently a work-in-progress!

How It Works

TODO

Install

$ go get -u github.com/alfg/ffmpegd

Release binaries coming soon.

Usage

• ffmpeg must be installed and available on your $PATH.
• Run ffmpegd:

$ ffmpegd

This wil start the websocket server in your current working directory and wait for a connection.

• Go to https://alfg.github.io/ffmpeg-commander/ in the browser
• Enable ffmpegd in Options.
• Once connected, you can start sending encode jobs to ffmpegd!

Example

ffmpegd with a job in progress from ffmpeg-commander

$ ffmpegd
