jareware/ffmpeg repository overview

⁠jareware/ffmpeg

Docker-wrapper for ffmpeg from the Ubuntu Multimedia packages⁠, with proper tags, convenient entrypoint, and one special location within the container:

• /data, which is the default workdir. Use -v to mount any data you wish to operate on there.

⁠Usage

Running the container without arguments gives you the usage info:

$ docker run -v $(pwd):/data jareware/ffmpeg
ffmpeg version N-73895-g323ec6b Copyright (c) 2000-2015 the FFmpeg developers
  built with gcc 4.8 (Ubuntu 4.8.4-2ubuntu1~14.04)
...

One nice feature of this build is the availability of the vidstabdetect⁠ and vidstabtransform⁠ filters. To stabilize that shaky GoPro footage for example:

$ docker run -v $(pwd):/data jareware/ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -vf vidstabdetect out.mp4
$ docker run -v $(pwd):/data jareware/ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -vf vidstabtransform -y out.mp4

⁠Versioning

The tags match the wrapped ffmpeg release.
