amazon s3 - Is it advisable to use FFMpeg on my local server for video conversion? -

-

we starting video sharing website users able upload videos in native formats. however, since video streaming on web in flv format, need convert videos flv.

also, site hosted on amazon ec2 , storage using s3.

can run ffmpeg on amazon ec2 ? best way go ? there other alternatives video encoding rather doing conversion on our own server ? came across www.transloadit.com seems same charging bomb. there cheaper , more intelligent alternatives ?

we planning make website 1 of top 10 biggest niche video streaming websites on internet.

ec2 instances virtual machines can whatever on them, including running ffmpeg.

only can work out costs/benefits of doing conversion on ec2, server or encoding service encoding.com(a google search turn more services).

some thoughts:

ec2

  • pay hour , can add new servers (although need design process support multiple servers)
  • fast (and free) transfer between ec2 , s3

your own servers

  • you pay hardware upfront
  • not easy scale if needed
  • you need maintain hardware
  • bandwidth charges between ec2/s3 , servers

in both diy solutions need deal notoriously error prone process , converting videos of different formats.

video encoding service

  • probably more expensive (debatable if factor in development time , support costs)
  • easiest way scale quickly
  • up , running quickly
  • let them deal difficult conversions

i want make logharitmic fit. keep getting runtime error: optimal parameters not found: number of calls function has reached maxfev = 1000 i use following script. can tell me go wrong? use spyder still beginner. import math import matplotlib mpl scipy.optimize import curve_fit import numpy np #data f1=[735.0,696.0,690.0,683.0,680.0,678.0,679.0,675.0,671.0,669.0,668.0,664.0,664.0] t1=[1,90000.0,178200.0,421200.0,505800.0,592200.0,768600.0,1036800.0,1371600.0,1630800.0,1715400.0,2345400.0,2409012.0] f1n=np.array(f1) t1n=np.array(t1) plt.plot(t1,f1,'ro',label="original data") # curvefit def func(t,a,b): return a+b*np.log(t) t=np.linspace(0,3600*24*28,13) popt, pcov = curve_fit(func, t, f1n, maxfev=1000) plt.plot(t, func(t, *popt), label="fitted curve") plt.legend(loc='upper left') plt.show() your original data t1 , f1 . therefore curve_fit should given t1 second argument, not t . popt, pcov = curve_fit(func,...

binding - How can you make the color of elements of a WPF DrawingImage dynamic? -

-
we have need make vector graphic images change color of elements within graphic @ runtime. seem setting colors based on either static or dynamic resource values wouldn't work. want have multiple versions of same graphic, each abilty set graphic elements (path, line, etc) different colors don't think dynamic resource approach work. leaves data binding seems right approach. update graphic use data binding expr instead of hard-coded brush color so: <drawingimage x:key="graphic1"> <drawingimage.drawing> <drawinggroup> <drawinggroup.children> <geometrydrawing geometry="f1 m 8.4073,23.9233l"> <geometrydrawing.pen> <pen linejoin="round" brush="{binding line1brush, mode=oneway}"/> </geometrydrawing.pen> </geometrydrawing> <geometrydrawing geometry="f1 m 3.6875,2.56251l"> <geometrydrawing....
