encoders-docker

Docker images for all video encoders for CI/CD or video encoding

Currently Supported

• aomenc
• svt-av1
• rav1e
• x265
• svt-hevc
• x264
• vpxenc

Usage

Can be used in CI/CD for software involving encoders along with using them to encode local videos through command line. Recommended image to use is the main image located at registry.gitlab.com/luigi311/encoders-docker:latest which is based on ubuntu 20.04.

Encoding via commandline requires either feeding the video in via stdin and out via stdout (Linux/WSL) or via volume mounting (Windows/Linux/WSL).
Linux volume mounting

-v /home/luigi311/Videos:/videos

or if you are in the current directory

-v $(pwd):/videos

Windows will not work with c:\Users\luigi311\Videos structure so $(pwd) will not work on windows, you must convert it to

-v //c/Users/luigi311/Videos:/videos

Examples

aomenc

Stdin/Stdout (Linux/WSL)

docker run -i registry.gitlab.com/luigi311/encoders-docker:latest aomenc --rt --cpu-used=9 --ivf /dev/stdin -o /dev/stdout < akiyo_cif.y4m > akiyo_cif.ivf

Volume Mount (Windows/Linux/WSL)

docker run -v //c/Users/luigi311/Videos:/videos registry.gitlab.com/luigi311/encoders-docker:latest aomenc --rt --cpu-used=9 --ivf /videos/akiyo_cif.y4m -o /videos/akiyo_cif.ivf

svt-av1

Stdin/Stdout (Linux/WSL)

docker run -i registry.gitlab.com/luigi311/encoders-docker:latest SvtAv1EncApp --preset 8 -i /dev/stdin -b /dev/stdout < akiyo_cif.y4m > akiyo_cif.ivf

Volume Mount (Windows/Linux/WSL)

docker run -v //c/Users/luigi311/Videos:/videos registry.gitlab.com/luigi311/encoders-docker:latest SvtAv1EncApp --preset 8 -i /videos/akiyo_cif.y4m -b /videos/akiyo_cif.ivf

rav1e

Stdin/Stdout (Linux/WSL)

Does not support stdin to feed it the video source so it has to be used as a base image for CI/CD or by mounting the folder with the video files into the image

Volume Mount (Windows/Linux/WSL)

docker run -v //c/Users/luigi311/Videos:/videos registry.gitlab.com/luigi311/encoders-docker:latest rav1e /videos/akiyo_cif.y4m -o /videos/akiyo_cif.ivf

x265

Stdin/Stdout (Linux/WSL)

docker run -i registry.gitlab.com/luigi311/encoders-docker:latest x265 --y4m --preset 0 /dev/stdin -o /dev/stdout < akiyo_cif.y4m > akiyo_cif.h265

Volume Mount (Windows/Linux/WSL)

docker run -v //c/Users/luigi311/Videos:/videos registry.gitlab.com/luigi311/encoders-docker:latest x265 --y4m --preset 0 /videos/akiyo_cif.y4m -o /videos/akiyo_cif.h265

svt-hevc

Stdin/Stdout (Linux/WSL)

Does not support stdin to feed it the video source so it has to be used as a base image for CI/CD or by mounting the folder with the video files into the image

Volume Mount (Windows/Linux/WSL)

docker run -v //c/Users/luigi311/Videos:/videos registry.gitlab.com/luigi311/encoders-docker:latest SvtHevcEncApp -i /videos/akiyo_cif.y4m -b /videos/akiyo_cif.bin

x264

Stdin/Stdout (Linux/WSL)

docker run -i registry.gitlab.com/luigi311/encoders-docker:latest x264 --demuxer y4m --muxer mkv --preset 0 /dev/stdin -o /dev/stdout < akiyo_cif.y4m > akiyo_cif.mkv

Volume Mount (Windows/Linux/WSL)

docker run -v //c/Users/luigi311/Videos:/videos registry.gitlab.com/luigi311/encoders-docker:latest x264 --demuxer y4m --muxer mkv --preset 0 /videos/akiyo_cif.y4m -o /videos/akiyo_cif.mkv

vpxenc

Stdin/Stdout (Linux/WSL)

docker run -i registry.gitlab.com/luigi311/encoders-docker:latest vpxenc --codec=vp9 --ivf --cpu-used=0 --passes=1 /dev/stdin -o /dev/stdout < akiyo_cif.y4m > akiyo_cif.ivf

Volume Mount (Windows/Linux/WSL)
