FFmpeg Compiler?

3 points by danielszm · 6 comments · 1 min read


Is anyone aware of a source-to-source compiler whose target language is FFmpeg’s filtergraph syntax? With Bioscoop, I am in a position to make certain claims of which the strongest is precisely that: "To our knowledge, Bioscoop is the first source-to-source compiler whose target language is FFmpeg’s filtergraph syntax." I would love to be proven wrong. Thank you.

The paper can be found in the Bioscoop repo at https://github.com/danielsz/bioscoop. Direct link to the PDF: https://github.com/danielsz/bioscoop/blob/master/paper/progr...

Is it a clojure-like to FFmpeg’s filtergraph transpiler? Is it a library for clojure?

  • danielszmOP

    Yes and yes. The source language is a subset of Clojure, a small Lisp. And yes, it is also a library for Clojure. On top of it being a standalone compiler.

      Wait a few days and post again a link to https://github.com/danielsz/bioscoop with a title like "Bioscoop: DSL in Clojure for FFmpeg Filtergraph composition" that is the title of the PDF but I added Clojure somewhere in the middle. A few minutes later add a comment in HN explaining you are the author and will answer questions, and also a link to the pdf and your question about other similar projects that target filtergraph.
