Video

Compress a video with ffmpeg as a background job, read its properties and take a thumbnail.

Blocks

Add these blocks on the canvas by searching for their name. Each block page lists its pins and how it behaves.

• compress video_compress Compresses a video file with ffmpeg as a background queue job. Use a preset for standard message-media output, or override individual settings. Wire on_complete_function / on_error_function to react to the result.
• probe video_probe Reads width, height, duration, size and whether the file has audio : without transcoding. Runs inline (ffprobe is milliseconds), so branch on the result before deciding whether to compress.
• thumbnail video_thumbnail Extracts a single frame from a video as a JPEG poster image. Runs inline : it decodes one frame, not the whole file.
