FFmpeg Media Skill

Trit: +1 (PLUS - generative media transformation)
Foundation: FFmpeg + libav + filter system

Core Concept

FFmpeg transforms media through:

• Container/codec transcoding
• Stream extraction and muxing
• Complex filter graphs
• Hardware acceleration

Common Commands

# Transcode video
ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -c:v libx264 -crf 23 output.mp4

Extract audio

ffmpeg -i video.mp4 -vn -c:a aac output.m4a

Convert to GIF

ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -vf "fps=10,scale=320:-1" output.gif

Cut segment

ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -ss 00:01:00 -t 00:00:30 -c copy segment.mp4

Concat files

ffmpeg -f concat -i list.txt -c copy output.mp4

## Filter Graphs

```bash
# Scale and add text
ffmpeg -i input.mp4 \
  -vf "scale=1280:720,drawtext=text='Title':fontsize=24:x=10:y=10" \
  output.mp4

# Color adjustment
ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -vf "eq=brightness=0.1:saturation=1.2" output.mp4

GF(3) Integration

def trit_from_media_op(op: str) -> int:
    """Map FFmpeg operations to GF(3) trits."""
    if op in ["probe", "analyze", "check"]:
        return -1  # MINUS: verification
    elif op in ["copy", "remux", "extract"]:
        return 0   # ERGODIC: preservation
    else:
        return 1   # PLUS: transformation
