Massive "thank you" to FFmpeg for being an amazing tool.<p>My app pivotally depends on FFmpeg extracting screenshots of videos for users to browse through: <a href="https://github.com/whyboris/Video-Hub-App" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/whyboris/Video-Hub-App</a>

Does this play nice with Python youtube-dl? [1] [2]. I want to run a python script on my computer that captures youtube audio of certain government meetings without first having to dl the entire video and convert it (while doing a bunch of other stuff before and after automatically, all without me touching anything).<p>[1] <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/27473526/download-only-audio-from-youtube-video-using-youtube-dl-in-python-script" rel="nofollow">https://stackoverflow.com/questions/27473526/download-only-a...</a><p>[2] <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/39665160/youtube-dl-python-script-postprocessing-error-ffmpeg-codecs-arent-being-recogn" rel="nofollow">https://stackoverflow.com/questions/39665160/youtube-dl-pyth...</a>
Can't say I blame them for the removal of libndi-newtek, given the situation, but I wish FFMpeg (and gstreamer) had ndi support.<p>Would love to see an open source NDI, but I know newtek will never allow it.
Is there anything in the new release that would allow an encoder to be "motion-aware"?<p>e.g. if the video is static, don't store any information. But if there is movement in the video, start storing frames etc<p>WHY? I find myself recording lots of videos of me talking through code in an IDE. The screen mostly static, with some occasional the screen scrolling. The regular tradeoff-space afforded by CRF doesn't seem to get me the size results I believe are possible.
