ACTranscodingBundle

This bundle provides container services for loading the file transcoder in your own code.

This bundle is developed in sync with the http://github.com/AmericanCouncils/Transcoding repository.

Configuration

You can copy/paste the config block below into your app/config.yml and modify as needed:

ac_transcoding:
    ffmpeg: 
        enabled: true           #if false, other keys need not be specified
        path: /usr/bin/ffmpeg
        timeout: 0
    handbrake:
        enabled: true           #if false, other keys need not be specified
        path: /usr/local/bin/HandBrakeCLI
        timeout: 0

Services

• transcoder - will return an instance of AC\Transcoding\Transcoder, automatically registering any tagged Adapters, Presets, and Listeners

You can use the transcoder service to transcode a file:

$newFile = $container->get('transcoder')->transcodeWithPreset('/path/to/input/file', 'handbrake.classic', '/path/to/output/file');

Container Tags

Various container tags are implemented to allow easy registration of custom Adapters, Presets & event listeners into the transcoding. See the list below:

• transcoding.adapter
• transcoding.preset
• transcoding.listener
• transcoding.subscriber

Commands

The bundle provides a few commands for accessing the transcoder via the command line:

• transcoder:transcode [infile] [preset] [outfile] - Transcodes an input file with a preset, creating the output file. You can use this to test custom presets and adapters if necessary.
• transcoder:status - Displays a list of enabled and working adapters based on current configuration, plus a list of usable presets.
