Convenience facilities for using FFmpeg (ffmpeg.org), with invocation via ffmpeg-python.

Latest release 20240201:

• New $FFMPEG_EXE envvar.
• convert: use $FFMPEG_EXE, return the ffmpeg argv.
• convert: include the media type in DEFAULT_CONVERSIONS, refactor the choice of codec conversion.
• convert: supply dummy results if doit is false - could do with some finesse.
• ffmpeg_docker: use DockerRun.{add_input,add_output}.
• New main_ffmpeg_docker to support the ffmpeg-docker command, add ffmpeg-docker to DISTINFO scripts.

Class ConversionSource(builtins.tuple)

ConversionSource(src, srcfmt, start_s, end_s)

Method ConversionSource.__new__(_cls, src, srcfmt, start_s, end_s): Create new instance of ConversionSource(src, srcfmt, start_s, end_s)

Function convert(*srcs, dstpath: str, doit=True, dstfmt=None, ffmpeg_exe=None, fstags: cs.fstags.FSTags, conversions=None, metadata: Optional[dict] = None, timespans=(), overwrite=False, acodec=None, vcodec=None, extra_opts=None) -> List[str]

Transcode video to dstpath in FFMPEG compatible dstfmt.

Function ffmpeg_docker(*ffmpeg_args: Iterable[str], docker_run_opts: Union[List[str], Mapping, NoneType] = None, doit: Optional[bool] = None, quiet: Optional[bool] = None, ffmpeg_exe: Optional[str] = None, docker_exe: Optional[str] = None, image: Optional[str] = None, outputpath: str = '.') -> Optional[subprocess.CompletedProcess]

Invoke ffmpeg using docker.

Class FFmpegSource

A representation of an ffmpeg input source.

Function ffprobe(input_file, *, doit=True, ffprobe_exe='ffprobe', quiet=False)

Run ffprobe -print_format json on input_file, return format, stream, program and chapter information as an AttrableMapping (a dict subclass).

Function main_ffmpeg_docker(argv=None)

The ffm[peg-docker command line implementation.

Class MetaData(cs.tagset.TagSet, builtins.dict, cs.dateutils.UNIXTimeMixin, cs.lex.FormatableMixin, cs.lex.FormatableFormatter, string.Formatter, cs.mappings.AttrableMappingMixin)

Object containing fields which may be supplied to ffmpeg's -metadata option.

Method MetaData.__init__(self, format, **kw): pylint: disable=redefined-builtin
