• Rails 3 : How can I make Paperclip-FFMPEG work ?

  9 novembre 2011, par remino

  I have Rails 3.0.3 with these gems :

  • delayed_job 2.1.4
  • delayed_paperclip 0.7.1
  • paperclip 2.3.16
  • paperclip-ffmpeg 0.7.0

  (This combination is very specific. Some newer gems will not work with others.)

  Here's my Video model :

  class Video < Upload
  
    has_attached_file :file, :default_style => :view, :processors => [:ffmpeg],
  
      :url => '/system/:class/:attachment/:id/:style/:basename.:extension',
  
      :path => ':rails_root/public/system/:class/:attachment/:id/:style' \
  
        + '/:basename.:extension',
  
      :default_url => '/images/en/processing.png',
  
      :styles => {
  
        :mp4video => { :geometry => '520x390', :format => 'mp4',
  
          :convert_options => { :output => { :vcodec => 'libx264',
  
            :vpre => 'ipod640', :b => '250k', :bt => '50k',
  
            :acodec => 'libfaac', :ab => '56k', :ac => 2 } } },
  
        :oggvideo => { :geometry => '520x390', :format => 'ogg',
  
          :convert_options => { :output => { :vcodec => 'libtheora',
  
            :b => '250k', :bt => '50k', :acodec => 'libvorbis',
  
            :ab => '56k', :ac => 2 } } },
  
        :view => { :geometry => '520x390', :format => 'jpg', :time => 1 },
  
        :preview => { :geometry => '160x120', :format => 'jpg', :time => 1 }
  
      }
  
    validates_attachment_content_type :file, :content_type => VIDEOTYPES,
  
      :if => Proc.new { |upload| upload.file.file? }
  
    process_in_background :file
  
  end

  When creating a new Video object with attachment, the original is saved, but no conversion will be done. Even calling Video.last.file.reprocess! won't to a thing except returning true. (Not sure what "true" means in this case as it didn't work.)

  I tried hardcoding the path to ffmpeg in Paperclip::options[:command_path]. I even tried deleting the paperclip-ffmpeg.rb file and replacing it with a blank file. Really thinking I'd get an exception by doing the later, instead, I simply got "true" again.

  It feels like the paperclip-ffmpeg.rb is being loaded, because it is required by config/application.rb, but nothing is called in it when trying to generate a thumbnail or convert a video.

  Can anyone help me with this ? Thanks in advance !

• Internecine Legal Threats

  1er juin 2011, par Multimedia Mike — Legal/Ethical

  FFmpeg and associated open source multimedia projects such as xine, MPlayer, and VLC have long had a rebel mystique about them ; a bunch of hackers playing fast and loose with IP law in order to give the world the free multimedia experience it deserved. We figured out the algorithms using any tools available, including the feared technique of binary reverse engineering. When I gave a presentation about FFmpeg at Linuxtag in 2007, I created this image illustrating said mystique :

  
  
  

  It garnered laughs. But I made the point that we multimedia hackers just press on, doing our thing while ignoring legal threats. The policy has historically worked out famously for us– to date, I seem to be the only person on the receiving end of a sort-of legal threat from the outside world.

  Who would have thought that the most credible legal threat to an open source multimedia project would emanate from a fork of that very project ? Because that’s exactly what has transpired :

  
  
  Click for full threat
  

  So it came to pass that Michael Niedermayer — the leader of the FFmpeg project — received a bona fide legal nastygram from Mans Rullgard, a representative of the FFmpeg-forked Libav project. The subject of dispute is a scorched-earth matter involving the somewhat iconic FFmpeg zigzag logo :

  Original 2D logo		enhanced 3D logo

  To think of all those years we spent worrying about legal threats from organizations outside the community. I’m reminded of that time-honored horror trope/urban legend staple : Get out ! The legal threats are coming from inside the house !

  I’m interested to see how this all plays out, particularly regarding jurisdiction, as we have a U.K. resident engaging an Italian lawyer outfit to deliver a legal threat to an Austrian citizen regarding an image hosted on a server in Hungary. I suspect I know why that law firm was chosen, but it’s still a curious jurisdictional setup.

  People often used to ask me if we multimedia hackers would get sued to death for doing what we do. My response was always, “There’s only one way to know for sure,” by which I meant that we would just have to engage in said shady activities and determine empirically if lawsuits resulted. So I’m a strong advocate for experimentation to push the limits. Kudos to Michael and Mans for volunteering to push the legal limits.

• Convert video with paperclip and ffmpeg in Ruby on Rails

  16 juin 2014, par Atu

  I want to convert my uploaded video with ffmpeg, but I had few error. I use paperclip and ffmpeg but nothing happen. The structure of my application is one post has_many videos.

  this my video model :

  belongs_to :event
  
  validates_attachment_presence :source
  
  has_attached_file :source
  
  
  
  after_create :convert_in_flv, :set_new_filename
  
  
  
  def convert_in_flv
  
    flv = File.join(File.dirname(source.path), "#{id}.flv")
  
    system("ffmpeg -i #{source.path} -ar 22050 -ab 32 -s 480x360 -vcodec flv -r 25 -qscale 8 -f flv -y #{flv}")
  
  end
  
  
  
  def set_new_filename
  
    update_attribute(:source_file_name, "#{id}.flv")
  
  end

  and this my video controller

  def create
  
    @event = Event.find(params[:event_id])
  
    @video = @event.videos.create(params[:video])
  
    redirect_to event_path(@event)
  
  end 
  
  
  
  def destroy
  
    @event = Event.find(params[:event_id])
  
    @video = @event.videos.find(params[:id])
  
    @video.destroy
  
    redirect_to event_path(@event)
  
  end

  The video is successful upload but not converted. You had any solution ?
