OVERVIEW

PureMotion is a Ruby gem for handling media files through ffmpeg

FEATURES

1. Media Information:

PureMotion uses the libav* libraries from the FFmpeg project to read information from all FFmpeg supported media files.

2. Transcoding:

PureMotion provides a DSL for building and running ffmpeg transcodes with progress reporting and logging. Consider the following code for transcoding a video to flv :

Transcode do

    input 'sample.ogv'

    video do
        codec :flv
        resize 320, 240
        bitrate '320k'
    end

    audio do
        codec :libmp3lame
        channels 2
        bitrate '64k'
    end

    output 'converted.flv'

    log 'transcode.log'

    event :progress do |transcode, progress|
        puts "#{progress[:percent]}%"
    end

end

3. Thumbnails:

The GD image library is used to resize and save in PNG format captured images from a video stream.

Media 'sample.mp4' do

    if video? then
        video.seek(5).grab.resize(320, 240).save('thumb.png')
    end

end

BUILDING

To build the PureMotion gem from source you will need to have libav* and libgd installed.
