# Dragoon
|
|
|
|
The Bit Goblin video transcoder.
|
|
|
|
## Building
|
|
|
|
Currently this project is targeting Java 11 LTS and uses Maven to manage the software lifecycle. Thus, you must have a Java 11 JDK and Maven installed to build this project.
|
|
|
|
*NOTE:* The targeted Java version will likely change to 17 LTS soon.
|
|
|
|
### Ubuntu
|
|
|
|
`sudo apt install openjdk-11-jdk maven`
|
|
|
|
### Red Hat/Almalinux
|
|
|
|
`sudo dnf install java-11-openjdk-devel maven`
|
|
|
|
### Actually Building
|
|
|
|
Now that the needed tools are installed, you should be able to build this project. To build a JAR file with it's dependencies included:
|
|
|
|
`mvn clean compile assembly:single`
|
|
|
|
Then you can run the transcoder:
|
|
|
|
`java -jar target/Dragon-VERSION-jar-with-dependencies.jar`
|
|
|
|
## Configuration
|
|
|
|
If you were paying attention to Dragoon's output, you would have noticed that it failed with a complaint about not finding a configuration file. The location might move in the future or even be configurable, but for now you need to have a TOML file located at `~/.config/dragoon.toml` with at minimum the following contents:
|
|
|
|
```toml
|
|
# This example transcodes footage to DNxHD 1080p60 for use in video editors like DaVinci Resolve.
|
|
[transcoder]
|
|
repo_path = '~/videos' # location of the videos to transcode
|
|
video_format = 'mov' # video container format
|
|
video_codec = 'dnxhd' # video codec to use
|
|
video_parameters = 'scale=1920x1080,fps=60,format=yuv422p' # video extra format parameters flag - this will be broken later into separate attributes
|
|
video_profile = 'dnxhr_hq' # DNxHD has multiple presets for various video qualities
|
|
audio_codec = 'pcm_s16le' # audio codec to use
|
|
```
