`ffmpegd`

FFmpeg websocket server and API for FFmpeg Commander.

*Currently a work-in-progress! Bugs and breaking changes are expected.

How It Works

ffmpegd connects FFmpeg Commander to ffmpeg by providing a websocket server to send encode tasks and receive realtime progress updates back to the browser. This allows using ffmpeg-commander as a GUI for ffmpeg.

The goal is to provide a simple interface for sending FFmpeg tasks from the browser (and other supported clients in the future) to your local machine.

See Usage for more details.

          process              websocket
[ffmpeg] <-------> [ffmpegd] <-----------> [ffmpeg-commander]

Install

Go

$ go install github.com/alfg/ffmpegd@latest

Download

Release binaries for your platform at: https://github.com/alfg/ffmpegd/releases

Docker

A Docker image is available with alfg/ffmpeg build installed:

$ docker run -it -p 8080:8080 -v /tmp/:/home alfg/ffmpegd

Or via GitHub Container Registry:

$ docker run -it -p 8080:8080 -v /tmp/:/home ghcr.io/alfg/ffmpegd

Or using the docker-compose example:

$ docker-compose up ffmpegd

Homebrew

TBD

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!
