• choosing outbound IP (eth0 or eth1) in FFMPEG

  4 septembre 2018, par Ba Ta

  I have 2 IP addresses on my server.

  $curl --interface eth0 ifconfig.co      
  
  111.111.111.111
  
  
  
   $curl --interface eth0:0 ifconfig.co      
  
  222.222.222.222

  So via curl I can switch via interfaces so my IP address changes when I visit any url based on eth IP

  How can I use same thing via ffmpeg ?

  For example, if want to access this video via ffmpeg (it uses 111.111.111.111 to access it)

   ffmpeg -i 123.com/video.mp4

  how can I access same video from my second IP 222.222.222.222 ?

  Is there any command like this, perhaps ?

  ffmpeg --interface eth0:0  -i 123.com/video.mp4

• Compiling FFMPEG on CentOS DigitalOcean

  29 juillet 2015, par coder_uk

  I set up a DigitalOcean instance running CentOS 6.5 and successfully followed the guide to compile FFMPEG (https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/CompilationGuide/Centos). Hurrah !

  But of course I realised that by default, DigitalOcean creates a root user and so ffmpeg now lives in /root/bin/ffmpeg. Which isn’t ideal because when I want to exec the ffmpeg bin from nginx, I would have to run nginx as root for it to have permission.

  Questions ...

  1) Long-shot, but presumably if I change the owner of the ffmpeg binary to nginx, it still won’t work, because nginx won’t be able to access the /root folder it is in. Correct ?

  2) I could run nginx as root (’user root’). But this seems like a very bad idea. Correct ?

  3) Which leaves me with the option of creating a new user, and then compiling ffmpeg into its home folder. But : which user ? EC2 creates ’ec2-user’, so should I make my own equivalent for DO ? But then won’t I have to run nginx as that user, else I’ll run into the same problem ?

  Or should I compile ffmpeg into the ’nginx’ home folder, if indeed it has one ? Is that how it is supposed to be done ?

  Since compiling ffmpeg takes ages, I don’t want to keep doing it, and the static files all seem very out of date. Thanks

• Multimedia Exploration Journal : The Past Doesn’t Die

  12 juillet 2011, par Multimedia Mike — Game Hacking

  New haul of games, new (old) multimedia formats.

  Lords of Midnight
  Check out the box copy scan for Lords of Midnight in MobyGames. In particular, I’d like to call your attention to this little blurb :

  
  
  

  Ahem, "Journey through an immense world — the equivalent of 8 CD-ROMs." Yet, when I procured the game, it only came on a single CD-ROM. It’s definitely a CD-ROM (says so on the disc) and, coming from 1995, certainly predates the earliest DVD-ROMs (which can easily store 8 CD-ROMs on a disc). Thus, I wanted to jump in a see if they were using some phenomenal compression in order to squeeze so much info into 600 or so megabytes.

  I was surprised to see the contents of the disc clocking in at just under 40 megabytes. An intro movie and an outro movie account for 75% of that. Format ? None other than that curious ASCII anomaly, ARMovie/RPL with Escape 122 codec data.

  Cyclemania

  
  
  

  Cyclemania is one of those FMV backdrop action games, but with a motorcycle theme. I had a good feeling I would find some odd multimedia artifacts here and the game didn’t disappoint. The videos are apparently handled using 3-4 discrete files per animation. I’ve documented my cursory guesses and linked some samples at the new MultimediaWiki page.

  Interplay ACMP
  This is unrelated to this particular acquistion, but I was contacted today about audio files harvested from the 1993 DOS game Star Trek : Judgment Rites. The files begin with the ASCII signature "Interplay ACMP Data". This reminds me of Interplay MVE files which begin with the similar string "Interplay MVE File". My theory is that these files use the ACOMP compression format, though I’m still trying to make it fit.

  Wiki and samples are available as usual if you’d like to add your own research.
