An example of mkfifo use on win32- I have a device that can capture video to a file. The application can ONLY write to a file. I want to transcode the video file using ffmpeg. As it is now, I have to create the original file, then run it through ffmpeg (which can be started while the original video is still writing)- ending up with 2 large files (original not needed anymore). With a mkfifo utility, a 'pipe file' can be created, sending the original video to this 'pipe file' and the ffmpeg getting its input from this same 'pipe file'. The original video will be transcoded on the fly (running through the pipe), ending up with only 1 transcoded file. Applications that can't make use of 'normal' command line pipes can then make use of pipes. Maybe there is some other utility out there to do this, but apparently the win32 port of mkfifo doesn't do anything as far as I can tell. ______________________________________________________________________ You are receiving this email because you elected to monitor this forum.
