Alternative to (or alternative source for) mp4track (via mp4v2-utils) #317

I get this isn't really your problem, Don... but I'm hoping you have some ideas.

I am running ubuntu 20.04, and they have not included mp4v2-utils (and by proxy, the tool: mp4track).

Rather than grabbing this and compiling it from source, is there an alternative tool that can be used, or a reliable way to get a compiled version for inclusion?

The software itself does seem abandoned.

You can download the 18.04 version of the .deb here, and it might install on newer versions. I've not tested personally.

It may also be worth checking out Don's newer project other_video_transcoding, which doesn't have this dependency (and can leverage hardware encoders for more speed!)

@samhutchins Thanks! For both parts of that answer!

@carsonl Does that help?

carsonl commented 4 years ago

Thank you both, I'll investigate the options and go from there... I guess those older debs will be available until Bionic goes EOL...

@donmelton @carsonl I created a Docker image for transcode-video that packages everything up for you. https://hub.docker.com/r/jhbeskow/transcode-video
