FFmpeg Docker image

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.

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)

Format is ffmpeg:MAJOR.MINOR-VARIANT with MAJOR.MINOR in :

2.8
3.0
3.1
3.2
3.3
3.4
4.0
4.1
snapshot

and VARIANT in :

alpine
centos

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 $(pwd):$(pwd) -w $(pwd) 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 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 $(pwd):$(pwd) -w $(pwd)\
        jrottenberg/ffmpeg:3.2-scratch -stats \
        -i original.gif \
        original-converted.mp4

Use ZeroMQ to toggle filter value on-fly

Let's start some process continuously writing some radio music, and listen it:

 docker run --rm -d -v $(pwd):$(pwd) -w $(pwd) -p 11235:11235 \
        --name radio-writer jrottenberg/ffmpeg \
        -i http://radio.casse-tete.solutions/salut-radio-64.mp3 \
        -filter_complex '[0:a]volume@vol=1,azmq=bind_address=tcp\\\://0.0.0.0\\\:11235[out]' \
        -map '[out]' ./salut-radio.mp3

 ffplay ./salut-radio.mp3

Now, just toggle its volume on-fly, and hear how it changes:

 docker run --rm --network=host --entrypoint sh jrottenberg/ffmpeg -c \
        'echo "volume@vol volume 2" | zmqsend -b tcp://127.0.0.1:11235'

Send a stream over SRT

Let's send video.mp4 to srt-listener on port 9000 over SRT protocol.

docker run -v $(pwd):$(pwd) jrottenberg/ffmpeg \
       -re -i $(pwd)/video.mp4 -acodec copy -vcodec copy -f mpegts srt://srt-listener:9000?pkt_size=1316

Use hardware acceleration enabled build

Thanks to qmfrederik for the vaapi ubuntu based variant

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

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

docker run --device /dev/dri:/dev/dri -v $(pwd):$(pwd) -w $(pwd) 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.

Use nvidia hardware acceleration enabled build

Thanks to ShaulMyplay for the nvidia based variant

Supports nvenc only on all ffmpeg versions, and hardware decoding and scaling on ffmpeg >= 4.0

Install nvidia latest drivers on host machine.
Install nvidia-docker on host machine.
Run container using "--runtime=nvidia" flag and use supported ffmpeg hwaccel options

Hardware encoding only example:

docker run --runtime=nvidia jrottenberg/ffmpeg:2.8-nvidia -i INPUT -c:v nvenc_h264 -preset hq OUTPUT Full hardware acceleration example: docker run --runtime=nvidia jrottenberg/ffmpeg:4.1-nvidia -hwaccel cuvid -c:v h264_cuvid -i INPUT -vf scale_npp=-1:720 -c:v h264_nvenc -preset slow OUTPUT

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
