NAME App::FfmpegUtils - Utilities related to ffmpeg VERSION This document describes version 0.001 of App::FfmpegUtils (from Perl distribution App-FfmpegUtils), released on 2020-06-03. FUNCTIONS reencode_video Usage: reencode_video(%args) -> [status, msg, payload, meta] Re-encode video (using ffmpeg and H.264 codec). This utility runs ffmpeg to re-encode your video files. Usually used to reduce the file size (and optionally video width/height) so they are smaller, while minimizing quality loss. The default settings are: -v:c libx264 -preset veryslow (to get the best compression rate, but with the slowest encoding time) -crf 28 (0-51, subjectively sane is 18-28, 18 ~ visually lossless, 28 ~ visually acceptable) when a downsizing is requested (using the "--downsize-to" option), the "-vf scale" option is used and this utility calculate a valid size for ffmpeg. Audio streams are copied, not re-encoded. Output filenames are: ORIGINAL_NAME.crf28.mp4 or (if downsizing is done): ORIGINAL_NAME.480p-crf28.mp4 This function is not exported. This function supports dry-run operation. Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments): * crf => *int* * downsize_to => *str* * ffmpeg_path => *filename* * files* => *array[filename]* Special arguments: * -dry_run => *bool* Pass -dry_run=>1 to enable simulation mode. Returns an enveloped result (an array). First element (status) is an integer containing HTTP status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element (msg) is a string containing error message, or 'OK' if status is 200. Third element (payload) is optional, the actual result. Fourth element (meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information. Return value: (any) HOMEPAGE Please visit the project's homepage at .
