- hackernudes 4y agoLooks like it supports getting data from ipfs:// and ipns:// URIs by using an ipfs gateway, which is basically an http-to-ipfs server. - https://github.com/FFmpeg/FFmpeg/blob/master/libavformat/ipfsgateway.c https://github.com/FFmpeg/FFmpeg/blob/master/libavformat/ipf... - https://github.com/FFmpeg/FFmpeg/commit/f889837e00d3b2388a24c0a9d075ad62f47da825 https://github.com/FFmpeg/FFmpeg/commit/f889837e00d3b2388a24...
- lioeters 4y ago> InterPlanetary File System (IPFS) protocol support. One can access files stored on the IPFS network through so-called gateways. These are http(s) endpoints. This protocol wraps the IPFS native protocols (ipfs:// and ipns://) to be sent to such a gateway. Users can (and should) host their own node which means this protocol will use one’s local gateway to access files on the IPFS network. If a user doesn’t have a node of their own then the public gateway https://dweb.link https://dweb.link is used by default. https://ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg-protocols.html#ipfs https://ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg-protocols.html#ipfs
