FFmpeg Utilizer

Project Description

FFMPEG Utilizer is a UI/GUI software which utilizes external ffmpeg/ffplay to execute commands depending on user input. It aims to be very lightweight, portable and user friendly. It will not be using any third party libraries.

FFMPEG Utilizer is NOT affiliated, associated, endorsed by, or in any way officially connected with FFmpeg. FFmpeg itself is a complete, cross-platform solution to record, convert and stream audio and video.

Backstory:

The main purpose was to eliminate the need for batch files or manual CMD inputs by using a program to generate the arguments and run ffmpeg with minimal manual labour. It has since grown and expanded beyond what was initially intended. Initial need was to convert a filetype and encode to another.

This feature is supposed to filter connections and limit to browser requests.
Check if the request match our specific GET request for adding a URL to our software. 
If the request is satisfactory the request will be handled and the data added to our software. 
The idea is intended to be working hand in hand with a browser extension. 

For now, only manual inputs work:
http://127.0.0.1:{PORT}?add=http://google.se/hls.m3u8
This will add the required information automatically to our software.
