The sample pipeline

Sample code

The following sample code can convert the source video file to the WebM file with a VP8 video stream and Vorbis audio stream.

var pipeline = new MediaBlocksPipeline();

var filename = "test.mp4";
var fileSource = new UniversalSourceBlock(await UniversalSourceSettings.CreateAsync(new Uri(filename)));

 var vp8EncoderBlock = new VPXEncoderBlock(new VP8EncoderSettings());
pipeline.Connect(fileSource.VideoOutput, vp8EncoderBlock.Input);

var vorbisEncoderBlock = new VorbisEncoderBlock(new VorbisEncoderSettings() { Bitrate = 192 });
pipeline.Connect(fileSource.AudioOutput, vorbisEncoderBlock.Input);

var webmSinkBlock = new WebMSinkBlock(new WebMSinkSettings(@"output.webm"));
pipeline.Connect(vp8EncoderBlock.Output, webmSinkBlock.CreateNewInput(MediaBlockPadMediaType.Video));
pipeline.Connect(vorbisEncoderBlock.Output, webmSinkBlock.CreateNewInput(MediaBlockPadMediaType.Audio));

await pipeline.StartAsync();
