I’m not familiar with FFMPEG. How hard would it be to reproduce bits of it in Go natively? Why does everyone need to sub process out to this one library.
Yeah, it feels like something I don’t want to replicate all of (because I probably won’t need all of it), but it would also be nice to be able to use the bits I need from Go without depending on C. :/
It would be a huge undertaking to re-write it, let alone keep up with the pace of development.
An awful lot of the video processing on the internet makes it's way through ffmpeg in one way or another.
