ffmpeg-go

ffmpeg-go is golang port of https://github.com/kkroening/ffmpeg-python

check examples/example_test.go and ffmpeg_test.go for more examples.

How to get and use

You can get this package via:

go get -u github.com/u2takey/ffmpeg-go

Note: ffmpeg-go makes no attempt to download/install FFmpeg, as ffmpeg-go is merely a pure-Go wrapper - whereas FFmpeg installation is platform-dependent/environment-specific, and is thus the responsibility of the user, as described below.

Installing FFmpeg

Before using ffmpeg-go, FFmpeg must be installed and accessible via the $PATH environment variable.

There are a variety of ways to install FFmpeg, such as the official download links, or using your package manager of choice (e.g. sudo apt install ffmpeg on Debian/Ubuntu, brew install ffmpeg on OS X, etc.).

Regardless of how FFmpeg is installed, you can check if your environment path is set correctly by running the ffmpeg command from the terminal, in which case the version information should appear, as in the following example (truncated for brevity):

$ ffmpeg
ffmpeg version 4.2.4-1ubuntu0.1 Copyright (c) 2000-2020 the FFmpeg developers
  built with gcc 9 (Ubuntu 9.3.0-10ubuntu2)

Note: The actual version information displayed here may vary from one system to another; but if a message such as ffmpeg: command not found appears instead of the version information, FFmpeg is not properly installed.

Examples

split := Input(TestInputFile1).VFlip().Split()
	split0, split1 := split.Get("0"), split.Get("1")
	overlayFile := Input(TestOverlayFile).Crop(10, 10, 158, 112)
err := Concat([]*Stream{
    split0.Trim(KwArgs{"start_frame": 10, "end_frame": 20}),
    split1.Trim(KwArgs{"start_frame": 30, "end_frame": 40})}).
    Overlay(overlayFile.HFlip(), "").
    DrawBox(50, 50, 120, 120, "red", 5).
    Output(TestOutputFile1).
    OverWriteOutput().
    Run()

Transcoding From One Codec To Another

err := ffmpeg.Input("./sample_data/in1.mp4").
		Output("./sample_data/out1.mp4", ffmpeg.KwArgs{"c:v": "libx265"}).
		OverWriteOutput().ErrorToStdOut().Run()

Cut Video From Timestamp

err := ffmpeg.Input("./sample_data/in1.mp4", ffmpeg.KwArgs{"ss": 1}).
    Output("./sample_data/out1.mp4", ffmpeg.KwArgs{"t": 1}).OverWriteOutput().Run()
assert.Nil(t, err)

Add Watermark For Video

// show watermark with size 64:-1 in the top left corner after seconds 1
overlay := ffmpeg.Input("./sample_data/overlay.png").Filter("scale", ffmpeg.Args{"64:-1"})
err := ffmpeg.Filter(
    []*ffmpeg.Stream{
        ffmpeg.Input("./sample_data/in1.mp4"),
        overlay,
    }, "overlay", ffmpeg.Args{"10:10"}, ffmpeg.KwArgs{"enable": "gte(t,1)"}).
    Output("./sample_data/out1.mp4").OverWriteOutput().ErrorToStdOut().Run()

result:

img.png

Cut Video For Gif

err := ffmpeg.Input("./sample_data/in1.mp4", ffmpeg.KwArgs{"ss": "1"}).
    Output("./sample_data/out1.gif", ffmpeg.KwArgs{"s": "320x240", "pix_fmt": "rgb24", "t": "3", "r": "3"}).
    OverWriteOutput().ErrorToStdOut().Run()

result:

img.png

Task Frame From Video

func ExampleReadFrameAsJpeg(inFileName string, frameNum int) io.Reader {
	buf := bytes.NewBuffer(nil)
	err := ffmpeg.Input(inFileName).
		Filter("select", ffmpeg.Args{fmt.Sprintf("gte(n,%d)", frameNum)}).
		Output("pipe:", ffmpeg.KwArgs{"vframes": 1, "format": "image2", "vcodec": "mjpeg"}).
		WithOutput(buf, os.Stdout).
		Run()
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}
	return buf
}

reader := ExampleReadFrameAsJpeg("./sample_data/in1.mp4", 5)
img, err := imaging.Decode(reader)
if err != nil {
    t.Fatal(err)
}
err = imaging.Save(img, "./sample_data/out1.jpeg")
if err != nil {
    t.Fatal(err)
}

result :

Get Multiple Output

// get multiple output with different size/bitrate
input := ffmpeg.Input("./sample_data/in1.mp4").Split()
out1 := input.Get("0").Filter("scale", ffmpeg.Args{"1920:-1"}).
Output("./sample_data/1920.mp4", ffmpeg.KwArgs{"b:v": "5000k"})
out2 := input.Get("1").Filter("scale", ffmpeg.Args{"1280:-1"}).
Output("./sample_data/1280.mp4", ffmpeg.KwArgs{"b:v": "2800k"})

err := ffmpeg.MergeOutputs(out1, out2).OverWriteOutput().ErrorToStdOut().Run()

Show FFmpeg Progress

see complete example at: showProgress

func ExampleShowProgress(inFileName, outFileName string) {
	a, err := ffmpeg.Probe(inFileName)
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}
	totalDuration := gjson.Get(a, "format.duration").Float()

	err = ffmpeg.Input(inFileName).
		Output(outFileName, ffmpeg.KwArgs{"c:v": "libx264", "preset": "veryslow"}).
		GlobalArgs("-progress", "unix://"+TempSock(totalDuration)).
		OverWriteOutput().
		Run()
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}
}
ExampleShowProgress("./sample_data/in1.mp4", "./sample_data/out2.mp4")

result

progress:  .0
progress:  0.72
progress:  1.00
progress:  done

Integrate FFmpeg-go With Open-CV (gocv) For Face-detect

see complete example at: opencv

result: image

Set Cpu limit/request For FFmpeg-go

e := ComplexFilterExample("./sample_data/in1.mp4", "./sample_data/overlay.png", "./sample_data/out2.mp4")
err := e.RunWithResource(0.1, 0.5)
if err != nil {
    assert.Nil(t, err)
}

result from command top: we will see ffmpeg used 0.5 core as expected.
