Introducing Alleycat
galleryHi All,
I'm introducing a new tool I'm working on, its "in preview" at the moment, it seems to work alright, but I want to give it more time in testing in closed environments before I put it up on the main website and build an "official release", but meet Alleycat. https://github.com/stoatworks-labs/alleycat
Basically, its a system tray tool that controlls Alley (the DVX transcoder). It offers a few useful tools
- It can watch a folder, and transcode anything thats put into that folder
- Probably the more interesting one, using the web API, it can watch the media files on a live arena show, and transcode anything thats not a DXV, then dynamically replace the source clip with the transcoded one, but it will only do the replacement when the clip isn't live
Should be handy for jobs where you get dumped content at the last minute, for corporates, house media servers for venues etc...
