FFmpeg commands helper for flutter with support for setup on windows platform.

ffmpeg_helper

FFmpeg commands helper for flutter with support for setup on windows platform. Create thumbnail and run ffprobe on all platforms except WEB. This uses ffmpeg_kit_flutter_min_gpl package for android/ios/macos Info was taken from ffmpeg_cli and recreated it as that project was stale.

// Initialize in main
  await FFMpegHelper.instance.initialize(); // This is a singleton instance
  // FFMpegHelper ffmpeg = FFMpegHelpe.instance; // use like this
  runApp(const MyApp());

// Command builder
// Use prebuilt args and filters or create custom ones
final FFMpegCommand cliCommand = FFMpegCommand(
  inputs: [
    FFMpegInput.asset(selectedFile!.path),
  ],
  args: [
    const LogLevelArgument(LogLevel.info),
    const OverwriteArgument(),
    const TrimArgument(
      start: Duration(seconds: 0),
      end: Duration(seconds: 10),
    ),
  ],
  filterGraph: FilterGraph(
    chains: [
      FilterChain(
        inputs: [],
        filters: [
          ScaleFilter(
            height: 300,
            width: -2,
          ),
        ],
        outputs: [],
      ),
    ],
  ),
  outputFilepath: path.join(appDocDir.path, "ffmpegtest.mp4"),
);
FFMpegHelperSession session = await ffmpeg.runAsync(
  cliCommand,
  statisticsCallback: (Statistics statistics) {
    print('bitrate: ${statistics.getBitrate()}');
  },
);

Thumbnail creator

// use ffmpeg.getThumbnailFileAsync() to get session
Future<FFMpegHelperSession> getThumbnailFileAsync({
  required String videoPath,
  required Duration fromDuration,
  required String outputPath,
  String? ffmpegPath,
  FilterGraph? filterGraph,
  int qualityPercentage = 100,
  Function(Statistics statistics)? statisticsCallback,
  Function(File? outputFile)? onComplete,
  FFMpegConfigurator? ffMpegConfigurator,
})
// use ffmpeg.getThumbnailFileSync() to get thumbnail file
Future<File?> getThumbnailFileSync({
  required String videoPath,
  required Duration fromDuration,
  required String outputPath,
  String? ffmpegPath,
  FilterGraph? filterGraph,
  int qualityPercentage = 100,
  Function(Statistics statistics)? statisticsCallback,
  Function(File? outputFile)? onComplete,
  FFMpegConfigurator? ffMpegConfigurator,
})

Run FFMpeg and get session so that user can cancel it later.

Future<FFMpegHelperSession> runAsync(
  FFMpegCommand command, {
  Function(Statistics statistics)? statisticsCallback,
  Function(File? outputFile)? onComplete,
  Function(Log)? logCallback,
})

Run FFMpeg as future.

Future<File?> runSync(
  FFMpegCommand command, {
  Function(Statistics statistics)? statisticsCallback,
})

Run ffprobe

Future<MediaInformation?> runProbe(String filePath)

Setup FFMPEG for Linux

sudo apt-get install ffmpeg
OR
sudo snap install ffmpeg
depends on linux distro

Setup FFMPEG for windows

Future<void> downloadFFMpeg() async {

      );

        ffmpegPresent = success;
      });
    } else if (Platform.isLinux) {
      // show dialog box

// On windows if ffmpeg is not present it will download official zip file and extract on doc directory of app.
