TCPClip for VapourSynth

Python class for distributed video processing and encoding

Usage

Server side (adjust threads or don't set varibale for auto-detection)

from TCPClip import Server
<your vpy code>
Server('<ip addr>', 14322, get_output(), threads=8, log_level='info', compression_method=None, compression_level=1, compression_threads=1)

Batches

py EP01.py
py EP02.py
...
py EP12.py

Client side (plain encoding)

from TCPClip import Client
Client('<ip addr>', port=14322, log_level='info', shutdown=True).to_stdout()

Batches (plain encoding)

py client.py | x264 ... --demuxer "y4m" --output "EP01.264" -
py client.py | x264 ... --demuxer "y4m" --output "EP02.264" -
...
py client.py | x264 ... --demuxer "y4m" --output "EP12.264" -

Client side (VS Source mode)

from TCPClip import Client
from vapoursynth import core
clip = Client('<ip addr>', port=14322, log_level='info', shutdown=True).as_source()
<your extra vpy code>
clip.set_output()
