[FFmpeg-user] Command Line Input - Read from Memory

Hi Peter,


Thanks for your reply.

The data in memory is copied from a buffer object that is filled by a stream.

I am trying to ingest from memory and use the command line instead of programming the whole process.

I believe it should be doable just don't know exactly how.


Best regards,

William

I am not certain I understand, what you want to achieve. Maybe
elaborate a bit more?
Do you want to avoid intermediary files or have you got some data
somewhere in memory that you want to feed into ffmpeg? In the first
case pipelining to stdin comes to mind:

$ command_that_writes_to_stdout | ffmpeg -i - output


Best,
Peter
