Overview
This node provides various ffmpeg-related functionalities, including video processing tasks. Specifically, for the Video Processing resource with the Combine Images operation, it combines multiple images into a single video sequence where each image is displayed for a specified duration. This is useful for creating slideshows or video presentations from a list of images.
Common scenarios include:
- Creating a video slideshow from a set of image URLs.
- Generating preview videos by combining product images.
- Automating video content creation from static images.
Example: Given a list of image URLs and a duration per image, the node outputs a video file that sequentially displays each image for the given time.
Properties
| Name | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Images Url List | A string containing a valid list of image URLs to be combined into a video sequence. |
| Images Duration | The duration (in seconds) each image should be displayed in the resulting video. |
Output
The node outputs JSON data representing the result of the ffmpeg processing. Typically, this includes metadata about the generated video file and possibly a binary field containing the video itself.
If binary data output is supported, it will contain the combined video file created from the input images, ready for further use or download.
Dependencies
- Requires an API key credential for accessing the underlying ffmpeg service.
- Relies on the external ffmpeg processing backend accessible via the configured API.
- No additional environment variables are explicitly required beyond the API authentication.
Troubleshooting
- Invalid Image URLs: If the provided image URLs are invalid or inaccessible, the node may fail to fetch images, causing errors. Ensure all URLs are reachable and point to valid image files.
- Incorrect Duration Format: The "Images Duration" property should be a valid number (as a string). Non-numeric or zero values might cause processing failures.
- API Authentication Errors: Missing or incorrect API credentials will prevent the node from communicating with the ffmpeg service.
- Timeouts or Large Inputs: Combining many high-resolution images can lead to long processing times or timeouts. Consider reducing image count or resolution.
