django-video-encoder

Simple integration with video encoding backends.

For now only the remote zencoder.com is supported.

Upload videos and asynchronously store the encoded videos and the generated thumbnails.

Requirements

Django 2.2+ and Celery to asynchronously run the encoding tasks.

Usage

You will need to add the following to your django settings:

Add django_video_encoder to INSTALLED_APPS

Add generic relation fields to your video models

formats = GenericRelation(Format)
thumbnails = GenericRelation(Thumbnail)

Set the DJANGO_VIDEO_ENCODER_THUMBNAIL_INTERVAL

Add the desired formats, for example

DJANGO_VIDEO_ENCODER_FORMATS = {
    "H264 (HD)": {"video_codec": "h264"},  # full resolution if not specified
    "H264": {"video_codec": "h264", "width": 720, "height": 404},
    "VP9 (HD)": {"video_codec": "vp9"},
    "VP9": {"video_codec": "vp9", "width": 720, "height": 404},
}

And specific settings using the zencoder backend:

Add ZENCODER_API_KEY and ZENCODER_NOTIFICATION_SECRET
You may also specify ZENCODER_REGION (default: europe) to the most suitable for you

DJANGO_VIDEO_ENCODER_FORMATS is a dictionary of {format_label: format_kwargs} where format_kwargs is a dictionary requiring video_codec and where all arguments are added to the encoding job POST. You can define width, height and much more see the Zencoder API.

Tests

Run tests with tox

Misc

To not be confused with the archived theonion/django-zencoder which is installed as zencoder
