Overlay Vincent (https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/confused-travolta) on any video/image with your browser using ffmpeg wasm (https://github.com/ffmpegwasm/ffmpeg.wasm).
Install
Broken symlinks need to be resolved by adding missing files in the
./assets/vincent directory (I'm not including them in the repo since I do not
own them).
Also note that Vincent can be replaced with any other green screen video of your liking.
The other symlinks can be resolved with ./vincent-cli install.
See ./vincent-cli --help to build, serve & dev.
How it works
ffmpeg (https://ffmpeg.org/) is pulled by your browser as a WebAssembly binary and used to generate a new video/image right from your browser.
This has a few advantages but the most interesting ones (IMO):
- pictures / videos never leave the client computer
- video processing can require quite a lot of resources, especially when dealing with multiple concurrent users, but here computing is completely offloaded on the user's own machine.
- server side setup is dead simple, it's a simple file server.
