membrane_ffmpeg_plugin

[mat-hek]

The idea is to build a plugin that would provide elements that would spawn FFmpeg via a port and pass the stream between it and the pipeline.

User story:

As a Membrane user, I’d like Membrane to be easily interoperable with FFmpeg, so that I can use Membrane with my existing FFmpeg script or use features that are available in FFmpeg and not in Membrane.

AC:

Package with a source, sink and filter (or a filter with dynamic, possibly absent inputs/outputs) that would provide FFmpeg interop

Elements should accept an FFmpeg command and maybe ffmpex syntax too

We should manage the FFmpeg process and make sure it’s properly terminated. Maybe we can use ffmpex under the hood

Hey @mat-hek! FYI We're using a combination of Exile and FFmpeg in some filters and it rocks. Usually we combine those filters with a Membrane parser afterwards. I can provide some examples if you want.
