This project is a collection of video-related scripts. It also combines multimedia-related actions, such as converting a .mp4 file into a .mp3 file. This can all be done quite easily via ffmpeg on the commandline anyway, but I wanted to have an umbrella project bundling all these actions into one place, into one module, and to optionally use something else rather than ffmpeg. Support for merging .mp4 files is also available. It includes the files: video_player.rb (which is just a little wrapper over mplayer), copy_missing_video_files.rb (which is supposed to copy video collections from external HDD devices), ffmpeg_options.rb (which makes using ffmpeg more convenient), find_missing_video_files.rb (which will iterate over a yaml collection of video files, and informs us which one are missing), find_video.rb (which locates videos), google_video_downloader.rb (which is supposed to download videos), and srt_regex.rb (which should be usable if you need to batch-modify .srt files, when they have the wrong timestamp, for instance). Added a small class in Version 0.0.8 for embedding html based on Youtube Videos. The latest release added class Watermark, which allows you to use FFMPEG to embed a watermark video using the MultimediaParadise.watermark() method. Since April 2014 you can also autoinclude this project by issuing: require 'multimedia_project/autoinclude' As of June 2014 we also included an AudioPlayer, which is essentially a wrapper over mplayer. Note that the earlier two releases had a mistake - the test directory contained an .aac data-audio file, thus being so huge. The project in itself is much much smaller, so that was hopefully a give-away that something was not quite right. If you have specific suggestions to make this gem more useful for others, please drop me an email at: shevegen@gmail.com Thank you.
