Other ffmprovisr-suitable tools?
Growing out of #309 and stemming also from this tweet --
What tools are a good fit for ffmprovisr-style sites, potentially to live immediately adjacent to ffmprovisr in this repo? What is complicated enough to need regular scripting reference?
- Exiftool (Exiftoolkit)?
- ImageMagick (ImageMagickTricks [thanks @kfrn for that one])?
- Bash?
- Pandoc?
- sox?
- exiv2 ref?
They all at minimum need punny and hard-to-remember-or-search names just like their parent. ;)
I have been tempted to add a few sox commands into ffmprovisr for a couple of the things sox handles better than ffmpeg - but not sure if there are enough to warrant an adjacent site...
oh, hahaha I just noticed you had sox on the list already! Sox is good!

Also the openssl pipe here is invaluable for calculating the weird hashes in a digital cinema package
Edit: link https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Cinema_Package#Packing_list_file_or_PKL_package_key_list
Also https://twitter.com/dericed/status/758275619767582720?s=19 the xxd call in here as a means of analysing binary outputs and determining any potential padding..
The use of Rubberband and Tesseract (with and/or without FFmpeg) could also be of interest.
- ImageMagickMagic
- KnockYourSoxOff
- ExifThroughTheGifShop
Sorry for the flood,I think all of mine would be in more of a "misc" site,rather than any of those tools being standalone. I think having those kinds of commands in an ffmprovisr style site would be so helpful tho.

Yeah that's what I'm thinking about... it would be good to have a misc though, for things related to the same premise but a different tool is better. Trying to think about which ones are complex enough -- ffmpeg really is a BEAST! ImageMagick for sure is weighty.
Bash is a (little) beast, I presume.
The biggest beast of all!!!!
I have nothing to add to this conversation, but I just wanted to say: I love you all. And that I spent all of yesterday screwing around with bash and imagemagick, so you know where my head's at.

maybe a youtube-dl guide for (community) archivists?
We are wired in, @bturkus.
Ya @todrobbins do you use youtube-dl?
I guess also it comes down to soliciting for commands people use. ffmprovisr got a jump-start from 1 my totally non-useful commands and 2 being during a hackathon and 3 leeching off of a previous AMIA hackathon's ffmpeg-for-archivists guide which had sample commands in it
I support all of this! Especially the :heart: , @EG-tech's proposed names, and another +1 for youtube-dl! I use that hella!
Aye +1 youtube-dl

My secret dream is a hackathon that moves with time zones, like Sunday 10am-5pm but N.Z. gets a head start, and @privatezero is left cleaning up all of the junk commits that have been made, unless we find an a/v archivist with github skills in Hawaii/Alaska. ;)
but N.Z. gets a head start
I'm happy to write some bugs for y'all to sort out 😎
wow this just arrived in my inbox https://github.com/learnbyexample/Command-line-text-processing/blob/master/ruby_one_liners.md 😍
I'm ok with being a closer as long as y'all are prepared for some <!--Free Cascadia--> comments being slipped in after everyone else has wrapped ;-P
The Roman Empire is falling: I was convinced that <!--Free Cascadia--> is a secret instruction for the compiler!

A potential starting point for a youtube-dl guide: https://github.com/bibanon/tubeup

I'd like to work on this.
Since we aren't sure how big some of these could potentially get (and I'm unsure if any of them could reach the size of ffmpeg, at least for this crowd), how about a compromise like this?
(Adding tools to the bottom of ffmprovisr, and in the ToC of course)
If they grow and the size becomes a problem (like @ross-spencer brought up in #309) we can decide to split at that time, and this way we don't block progress.
But what do y'all think?
Also I need to round up some actual useful examples...
I think that makes a lot of sense! I can start thinking of some sox things! (Maybe one of the most useful things sox does better than ffmpeg is splitting tracks on silence, and there is a good example right in the sox manual)
ToC title could be Similar tools: tips & tricks 🎩🐰
