NativeScript FFmpeg

Installation

tns plugin add nativescript-ffmpeg-plugin

Usage

Execute commands.

Use execute() method with a single command line and an argument delimiter

import { LogLevel, FFmpeg } from 'nativescript-ffmpeg-plugin';

FFmpeg.execute('-i file1.mp4 -c:v mpeg4 file2.mp4', ' ').then(result => console.log("FFmpeg process exited with result " + result));

Use executeWithArguments() method with an array of arguments

import { LogLevel, FFmpeg } from 'nativescript-ffmpeg-plugin';

FFmpeg.executeWithArguments(["-i", "file1.mp4", "-c:v", "mpeg4", "file2.mp4"]).then(result => console.log("FFmpeg process exited with result " + result));

Check execution output. Zero represents successful execution, non-zero values represent failure.

FFmpeg.getLastReturnCode().then(result => {
    console.log("Last return code: " + result);
});

FFmpeg.getLastCommandOutput().then(result => {
    console.log("Last command output: " + result;
});

Stop an ongoing operation.
```
FFmpeg.cancel();
```

Get media information for a file.

Print all fields

FFmpeg.getMediaInformation('<file path or uri>').then(info => {
    console.log('Result: ' + JSON.stringify(info));
});

Print selected fields

FFmpeg.getMediaInformation('<file path or uri>').then(info => {
    console.log('Result: ' + JSON.stringify(info));
    console.log('Media Information');
    console.log('Path: ' + info.path);
    console.log('Format: ' + info.format);
    console.log('Duration: ' + info.duration);
    console.log('Start time: ' + info.startTime);
    console.log('Bitrate: ' + info.bitrate);
    if (info.streams) {
        for (var i = 0; i < info.streams.length; i++) {
            console.log('Stream id: ' + info.streams[i].index);
            console.log('Stream type: ' + info.streams[i].type);
            console.log('Stream codec: ' + info.streams[i].codec);
            console.log('Stream full codec: ' + info.streams[i].fullCodec);
            console.log('Stream format: ' + info.streams[i].format);
            console.log('Stream full format: ' + info.streams[i].fullFormat);
            console.log('Stream width: ' + info.streams[i].width);
            console.log('Stream height: ' + info.streams[i].height);
            console.log('Stream bitrate: ' + info.streams[i].bitrate);
            console.log('Stream sample rate: ' + info.streams[i].sampleRate);
            console.log('Stream sample format: ' + info.streams[i].sampleFormat);
            console.log('Stream channel layout: ' + info.streams[i].channelLayout);
            console.log('Stream sar: ' + info.streams[i].sampleAspectRatio);
            console.log('Stream dar: ' + info.streams[i].displayAspectRatio);
            console.log('Stream average frame rate: ' + info.streams[i].averageFrameRate);
            console.log('Stream real frame rate: ' + info.streams[i].realFrameRate);
            console.log('Stream time base: ' + info.streams[i].timeBase);
            console.log('Stream codec time base: ' + info.streams[i].codecTimeBase);
        }
    }
});

Enable log callback and redirect all FFmpeg logs to a console/file/widget.

logCallback = (logData) => {
    console.log(logData.text);
};
...
FFmpeg.enableLogCallback(logCallback);

Enable statistics callback and follow the progress of an ongoing operation.

statisticsCallback = (statisticsData) => {
    console.log('Statistics; frame: ' + statisticsData.videoFrameNumber.toFixed(1) + ', fps: ' + statisticsData.videoFps.toFixed(1) + ', quality: ' + statisticsData.videoQuality.toFixed(1) +
    ', size: ' + statisticsData.size + ', time: ' + statisticsData.time);
};
...
FFmpeg.enableStatisticsCallback(statisticsCallback);

Poll statistics without implementing statistics callback.

FFmpeg.getLastReceivedStatistics().then(stats => console.log('Stats: ' + JSON.stringify(stats)));

Reset statistics before starting a new operation.
```
FFmpeg.resetStatistics();
```

Set log level.

FFmpeg.setLogLevel(LogLevel.AV_LOG_WARNING);

Register your own fonts by specifying a custom fonts directory, so they are available to use in FFmpeg filters. Please note that this function can not work on relative paths, you need to provide full file system path.
- Without any font name mappings
```
FFmpeg.setFontDirectory('<folder with fonts>', null);
```
- Apply custom font name mappings. This functionality is very useful if your font name includes ' ' (space) characters in it.
```
FFmpeg.setFontDirectory('<folder with fonts>', { my_easy_font_name: "my complex font name" });
```

Use your own fontconfig configuration.

FFmpeg.setFontconfigConfigurationPath('<fontconfig configuration directory>');

Disable log functionality of the library. Logs will not be printed to console and log callback will be disabled.
```
FFmpeg.disableLogs();
```
Disable statistics functionality of the library. Statistics callback will be disabled but the last received statistics data will be still available.
```
FFmpeg.disableStatistics();
```

List enabled external libraries.

FFmpeg.getExternalLibraries().then(externalLibraries => {
    console.log(externalLibraries);
});
