FFmpeg Docker image

Docker Stars Docker pulls Travis Build Status Docker Automated build

This project prepares a minimalist Docker image with FFmpeg. It compiles FFmpeg from sources following instructions from the Compilation Guide.

You can install the latest build of this image by running docker pull jrottenberg/ffmpeg.

This image can be used as a base for an encoding farm.

Ubuntu builds

You can use jrottenberg/ffmpeg or jrottenberg/ffmpeg:3.3 to get the latest build based on ubuntu.

Note : I've made ubuntu the default after 3.1

You'll find centos based image using ffmpeg:X.Y-centos or ffmpeg:centos to get the latest. alpine images ffmpeg:X.Y-alpine to get the latest. scratch images ffmpeg:X.Y-scratch to get the latest. (Scratch is an experimental image containing only FFmpeg and libraries)

Capture output from the container to the host running the command

 docker run jrottenberg/ffmpeg \
            -i http://url/to/media.mp4 \
            -stats \
            $ffmpeg_options  - > out.mp4

Examples

Extract 5s @00:49:42 into a GIF

 docker run jrottenberg/ffmpeg -stats  \
        -i http://archive.org/download/thethreeagesbusterkeaton/Buster.Keaton.The.Three.Ages.ogv \
        -loop 0  \
        -final_delay 500 -c:v gif -f gif -ss 00:49:42 -t 5 - > trow_ball.gif

Convert 10bits MKV into a 10Bits MP4

 docker run -v $PWD:/tmp jrottenberg/ffmpeg:3.4-scratch \
        -stats \
        -i http://www.jell.yfish.us/media/jellyfish-20-mbps-hd-hevc-10bit.mkv \
        -c:v libx265 -pix_fmt yuv420p10 \
        -t 5 -f mp4 /tmp/test.mp4

The image has been compiled with X265 Multilib. Use the pixel format switch to change the number of bits per pixel by suffixing it with 10 for 10bits or 12 for 12bits.

Convert a local GIF into a mp4

Let's assume original.gif is located in the current directory :

 docker run -v $PWD:/temp/ \
        jrottenberg/ffmpeg:3.2-scratch -stats \
        -i /temp/original.gif \
        /temp/original-converted.mp4

Use hardware acceleration enabled build

Thanks to qmfrederik for the vaapi ubuntu based variant

jrottenberg/ffmpeg:vaapi or jrottenberg/ffmpeg:vaapi-${VERSION}

  • Run the container with the device attached /dev/dri from your host into the container :

docker run --device /dev/dri:/dev/dri -v $(pwd):/mnt jrottenberg/ffmpeg:vaapi [...]

  • Have the Intel drivers up and running on your host. You can run vainfo (part of vainfo package on Ubuntu) to determine whether your graphics card has been recognized correctly.
  • Run ffmpeg with the correct parameters, this is the same as when running ffmpeg natively.

See what's inside the beast

docker run -it --entrypoint='bash' jrottenberg/ffmpeg

for i in ogg amr vorbis theora mp3lame opus vpx xvid fdk x264 x265;do echo $i; find /usr/local/ -name *$i*;done
