[Krydos] Request for access to FFMPEG

[nihonjin98]

Can i please request for having access to use ffmpeg on my account.  I do not wish to convert videos just scan them for srt subtitle information.

 

thanks.

I'm not sure if we can enable this or not. Most people who want it try to convert video with it, which is basically a guaranteed load suspension for anyone that isn't on Morty.

Lets see what Krydos says.

I appreciate your concerns but as mentioned my intention is not to do any video conversion whatsoever and happy to have my account suspended if I was to do otherwise and overload the server.  My scan literally takes a few seconds and is not cpu intensive at all.

Which scripting language are you using?

[nihonjin98]

Hi,

To answer your question: I am using Node.js as my scripting language.

Regarding my previous request for FFmpeg installation. I would like to cancel that request. I realized that my application uses WebAssembly (Client-Side FFmpeg), so the processing happens in the user's browser, not on your server.  All I need is for my Node.js application (server.js) to run so it can serve the static files with the correct Cross-Origin security headers. I will handle uploading the necessary FFmpeg WASM files (in my /lib folder) myself.

Thank you

It can take up to 2 hours for Node.js to start working after you enable it. You can read the documentation at https://wiki.helionet.org/Node.js

Correct. Application root = / and document root = /httpdocs
