Read from STDIN #25

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago

A great feature would be to read from stdin, Example:

wget http://example.org/video.mpg -O - | ffmpegthumbnailer -i - -o
thumb_video.png

I think this isn't impossible, because ffmpeg supports STDIN.

Looks interesting. I might look into it someday.

It works :D - you're the greatest, but wget seem to have some kind of problem 
with
it, but `cat` works like a charm.

I tried it with wget and it worked. It does complain in the end that it can't 
write
to the pipe but that is after the thumbnail was generated and the 
ffmpegthumbnailer
binary has finished, which is normal I think.
