VICE

VICE is a fork and rewrite of erlffmpeg.

Install

cmake, ffmpeg|libav, libopencv-dev, imagemagick, SoX

Example


1> vice:start().
...
2> {async, Worker} = vice:convert("test/erlang.mp4", "erlang.webm").
...
3> vice:status(Worker).
{running, 9.131803868645973}

Video Thumbnails

To generate video thumbnails, VICE use ImageMagick <sup>®</sup> and FFmpeg. If you want to optimize output images, you must add image_optimizer in your project dependencies and install pngquand or OptiPNG.

Options

Audio

For audio conversion, VICE use SoX.
