add support for stdin #7
Comments
Currently the script needs to be able to do random seeks within the file, which is difficult from stdin (basically you need to load the file into memory, or write to a temp file and then process it as if it were passed in instead of stdin). What's the use case for this change? Why would you need something like this? |
One use-case which brought me here is for creating "serverless" functions where you may not have write access to the filesystem, you can however work with pipes. Basically this works perfectly with files, but not with stdin/stdout - https://gist.github.com/dergachev/4627207 Your tool appears to be able to re-arrange MOV files so that they can be piped into ffmpeg, but requires them to be written to disk - which defeats the point. |
Got the same use-case. |
Why not support stdin for use with smaller files?
