• MPG to MP4 Video Conversion after Azure Media Services Retirement [closed]

  30 juillet 2024, par Yousef

  I'm hosting a C# Blazor Application in Azure App Service and was leveraging Azure Media Services to transcode mpg videos to mp4 in Jobs. However, Azure Media Services was retired last month and the services are going to stop next week so I have to find an alternative.
I have looked at multiple alternatives but couldn't find a simple conversion tool.
In Azure Media Services I was using the following configuration


  


  I can't seem to find the same configuration in the tools I have looked at. I tried Bitmovin but the encoding takes 5 - 10 Minutes (unlike Azure Media Services which takes 2 minutes) and the result of the encoding is a folder with 4 mp4 segments that are not part of the original mpg video.

  


  I tried ffmpeg locally but I can't get it to work in an Azure App Service.

  


  Does anyone have any suggestion of an alternative to Azure Media Service when it comes to Transcoding mpg videos to mp4 in a background task ?

  


• Cloaked Archive Wiki

  16 mai 2011, par Multimedia Mike — General

  Google’s Chrome browser has made me phenomenally lazy. I don’t even attempt to type proper, complete URLs into the address bar anymore. I just type something vaguely related to the address and let the search engine take over. I saw something weird when I used this method to visit Archive Team’s site :

  
  
  

  There’s greater detail when you elect to view more results from the site :

  
  
  

  As the administrator of a MediaWiki installation like the one that archiveteam.org runs on, I was a little worried that they might have a spam problem. However, clicking through to any of those out-of-place pages does not indicate anything related to pharmaceuticals. Viewing source also reveals nothing amiss.

  I quickly deduced that this is a textbook example of website cloaking. This is when a website reports different content to a search engine than it reports to normal web browsers (humans, presumably). General pseudocode :

  PLAIN TEXT

  C :

  1. if (web_request.user_agent_string == CRAWLER_USER_AGENT)
  2.  return cloaked_data ;
  3. else
  4.  return real_data ;

  You can verify this for yourself using the wget command line utility :

  <br />
$ wget --quiet --user-agent="<strong>Mozilla/5.0</strong>" \<br />
 http://www.archiveteam.org/index.php?title=Geocities -O - | grep \&lt;title\&gt;<br />
&lt;title&gt;GeoCities - Archiveteam&lt;/title&gt;

  $ wget —quiet —user-agent="Googlebot/2.1"
  http://www.archiveteam.org/index.php?title=Geocities -O - | grep \<title\>
  <title>Cheap xanax | Online Drug Store, Big Discounts</title>
  

  I guess the little web prank worked because the phaux-pharma stuff got indexed. It makes we wonder if there’s a MediaWiki plugin that does this automatically.

  For extra fun, here’s a site called the CloakingDetector which purports to be able to detect whether a page employs cloaking. This is just one humble observer’s opinion, but I don’t think the site works too well :
  
  

  
  
  

• Minimal "hello world" for WebRTC real-time streaming ?

  4 novembre 2018, par d33tah

  I’d like to learn about how to set up HTML5 live streaming. The use case I have in mind is related to controlling a Lego Mindstorms robot, which means that I want minimal latency. So far I experimented with RTMP using this Docker repository, but found that I can’t seem to tune it to get a real-time streaming. After a bit of research, I found that WebRTC could perhaps fit my use case.

  Let’s say I have a ffmpeg-compatible source, such as a webcam or x11grab data that I would like to stream using WebRTC. What would a "hello, world" look like that achieves this goal ?
