Hmm I was a bit afraid of that, guess I have to try to see
I won’t upload really long media though

I could swear I saw a post showing a teaser trailer for subnautica that was fully using gen AI, but I can’t find it anywhere anymore. Am I going crazy or did this really happen?

Sure but people need to speak up about this issue. It’s something disgusting any no one cares
- Comment on Video transcoding web interface (self hosted) 18 hours ago:
It’s mandatory, sadly. What you’re asking for would require using other software on different devices, and wouldn’t be easy to use for end users.

I guess I never found out how to do that. I’ve been using VLC for many years and never found a way to encode a file to something else, change its bitrate, and save to disk. It doesn’t work on iOS for sure.

Maybe I’m playing too passively. I’m just running around in circles while thinking what to do next: which enemy, which weapon…

Main UI on desktop, and if it happens again I’ll tell you :)
I believe on apps it was sometimes failing to charge (or being super slow) as well but can’t really confirm

I manage to often die on the easiest difficulty on doom eternal. I hate having to switch to so many weapons. I guess I’m the most casual player this world has

They’re doing great
BUT we must remember that Valve runs a lucrative and immoral casino open to minors, and destroys lives this way
- Comment on Video transcoding web interface (self hosted) 1 day ago:
VLC is anything but intuitive and I’m pretty sure you can’t encode media and save it on your computer, and for sure not on mobile devices

Mhh, yea that seems like the obvious workaround, but not the ideal solution
- Comment on Video transcoding web interface (self hosted) 1 day ago:
Yea, I’ve used it a fair bit before, and it’s pretty good at doing UI, the one thing that I dislike haha
My process is pretty much pointing out and fixing the small mistakes the model does. A lot of people hate AI but it’s honestly a game changer.

I haven’t found anything that suits my needs as stated.
The main reasons why I need to transcode:
- some software don’t support anything other than X formats/codecs (discord doesn’t display previews for VP9 files for example…)
- some devices don’t support specific codecs natively
- I want to fulfill all use cases. If I ever want to do something that’s not covered by handbrake (ex: can’t FTP to the server and upload the files I want to transcode).
- I want simplicity: avoid complicated bridges and installing many things
- i want it to be easily shareable and accessible: the client shouldn’t have to download an app, a software. Web browsers are easy and everyone has one. Normies use those online converters for a reason: they’re lazy and can’t be bothered to install things. They’ll take the easier route
- if a file takes too much space (ex: on my phone), I want to be able to do encode it to HEVC without having to install software or sending it to my computer)

That’s what I usually do but I’m trying not to reinvent the wheel this time (and not spend too much time on it). No luck :-/

The finality isn’t that important here. I basically want ffmpeg, running on my server.
Input: video file from local storage of the device that browses the website. Any container or codec. On the web UI I can choose the output container I want, the codec I want, the bitrate/or quality setting.
Output: transcoded file available to download for a short period of time. Then, input and outputs are wiped. They should only stay for the duration of the transcoding (for the input), and for a really short period of time, like 30mins, the time that the device that browsed the website downloads it (for the output).
Jellyfin is more of a streaming server. I don’t need that: no apps on the device that needs the service, no bloat, no streaming. Just ffmpeg online and simplified.
I just want to fuck around with encoding, converting or compressing my file on any device I have on the go, without having to download software. You see those file converters online? I want that, but with more settings and self hosted.
I know what you’re trying to do, and no, I don’t want to automate file conversion from a file to another and stuff.
If you’re looking for a tool where you once in awhile may choose a certain video to transcode into something else, setup a pipeline service, and send the files to that service to transcode them, but you’ll be limited by needing to know where and what it needs to processed as input, and then the outputs
That’s a bit more like what I want, but I’m actually asking if there is anything that would suit my needs and requirements
- Comment on Video transcoding web interface (self hosted) 1 day ago:
I want to view files on different devices but I really need the transcoding. Sometimes, I want to store compressed versions of media and I don’t want to install ffmpeg or similar.
I’ll check “Encore”, but handbrake has the problem of only taking files that are already on the server and not allowing web uploads
- Comment on Video transcoding web interface (self hosted) 1 day ago:
It was meant to run on a server with pretty much nothing on it but yea, if uploading big files isn’t possible through a browser, I’ll find other solutions. I was hoping files smaller than like 4GB would be fine.
About the storage, I hoped that it would just either load the file in memory, or store during the transcode, then when done, delete the source file and put the transcoded server for a limited amount of time (1h for example), then wipe it (or just wipe it after download)

Because I want to be able to transcode files from my phone, or from any device without having to install anything.

Some countries have more encouraging results than others. But yea, if there’s no economical incentive, few companies will do it. Let’s tax non-recycled material 👀
