Package io.humble.video.customio Description

An API for extending Humble Video to read and write from arbitrary data sources.

Humble Video needs to process raw media file data in order to decode and encode those files. What's worse, is the only input Humble Video can give to FFMPEG is a URL.

By default, Humble Video can read any "file:" URL. In fact if you don't specify a protocol, we will assume "file:". But what happens if you want to read data from an arbitrary source (like FMS, Red5, Wowza, etc)?

That's where this package comes in. Using the IO package you can implement a IURLProtocolHandler that can respond to FFMPEG requests to read or write buffers. From there any type of integration is possible.

To begin with this class, see URLProtocolManager and take a look at the example source code for FileProtocolHandler and FileProtocolHandlerFactory classes.
