A great way to use FFMpeg encoding when writing video applications, client-side and server-side. It has wrapper methods that allow conversion to all web formats: MP4, OGV, TS and methods of capturing screens from the videos.
### Configuration
## Binaries
By default the `RootDirectory` is set to `"\\FFMPEG\\bin"`.
If you prefer to manually download them, visit [ffbinaries](https://ffbinaries.com/downloads).
#### Windows
command: `choco install ffmpeg -Y`
location: `C:\ProgramData\chocolatey\lib\ffmpeg\tools\ffmpeg\bin`
#### Mac OSX
command: `brew install ffmpeg mono-libgdiplus`
location: `/usr/local/bin`
#### Ubuntu
command: `sudo apt-get install -y ffmpeg libgdiplus`
location: `/usr/bin`
## Path Configuration
#### Behavior
If you are building a client app, and you don't know the processor achitecture.
By creating a folder `x64` and `x86` in the `root` directory, the lib will automatically try to use either `/root/{ARCH}/(ffmpeg|ffprobe).exe`.
If these folders are not defined, it will try to find the binaries in `/root/(ffmpeg|ffprobe.exe)`
#### Option 1
The default value can be overwritten via the `FFMpegOptions` class:
The default value (`\\FFMPEG\\bin`) can be overwritten via the `FFMpegOptions` class:
```c#
public Startup()
{
FFMpegOptions.Configure(new FFMpegOptions { RootDirectory = "\\My_Binary\\Path" });
FFMpegOptions.Configure(new FFMpegOptions { RootDirectory = "./bin" });
}

# Compatibility
Some versions of FFMPEG might not have the same argument schema. The lib has been tested with version `3.3` to `4.1`
I can only guarantee an expected behaviour built binaries included, other 3rd party builds could contain API changes rendering an unexpected behaviour.
# API
MacOSX
The Unit test have run on MacOSX - 10.14.4 using ffmpeg version 4.1.3. (It was installed using "brew install ffmpeg" and "brew install mono-libgdiplus"). The RootDirectory was set to "/usr/local/bin" for running unit test.
Ubuntu 16.04
The unit test failed on 2 test when running against default ffmpeg package of (ffmpeg version 2.8.15-0ubuntu0.16.04.1)
The two test that failed were Video_ToMP4_Args and Video_ToMP4_Resize_Args
The Unit test passed when running against ffmpeg version 4.1.3
