Flvtool2

FLVTool2 RC5 released

Written by Administrator

With the RC5 release of FLVTool2, inLet Media have now included a full linux installer. The developers have also added some boolean values (hasVideo, hasAudio, hasMetadata, hasCuePoints and hasKeyframes) to the onMetadata event that give you information about the flv file content. Some bugs have been fixed. See the changelog for a list of all changes.

Introducing Flvtool2

Written by Dave Horsfall

FLVTool2 is a manipulation tool for Macromedia Flash Video files (FLV), to perform Flash video and meta data manipulation

Overview

FLVTool2 can calculate a lot of meta data and insert a onMetaData tag. It can cut FLV files and add cue Points (onCuePoint). A debug command lets you see inside our FLV and the print command gives you meta data information in XML or YAML format.

Features

  • batch processing
  • directory recursion
  • command chaining
  • cut FLV files
  • onCuePoint tag insertation via XML file
  • custom onMetaData key-value pairs
  • meta data printout in XML or YAML
  • simulation mode
  • runs under Windows, Linux and Mac OSX
  • ideal for serverside automatic meta data injection
