Combine

Concatenate multiple videos into one, single video to rule them all. Remember, these videos must be the same format!

JavaScript/Typescript
Python

const combinedFiles = modfy.compress(
    {
        inputFiles: ['wedding_video.mp4', 'divorce_court_hearing.mp4'],
        to: {
            format: 'MOV', 
            codec: 'H.264' // Optional, will otherwise revert to the default codec for that format
        }
    },
    'sync' // Can be 'async' | 'sync' | 'client',
    'https://yourdomain.com/modfyWebhook'
)
            

Arguments#

Parameter	Type	Description
format	string	Desired format output
codec	string?	If not specified, the default codec for that format will be used

Typing#

modfy.convert(

    inputFiles: AcceptedFiles,
    to: ToFile
  },
  processType: ProcessType,
  webhookUrl?: string
): Promise<Uint8Array> | Promise<{ id: string, uuid: string }>

type ToFile = {
  format: FormatKey // From the keys of the default formats
  codec?: CodecKey // From the keys of the default codecs
}

/**
 * This interface is a wrapper for a file object which takes a buffer
 * with the mimeType and name of the file
 */
type ModfyFile = {
  name: string
  mimeType?: string
  buffer: Buffer
}

type StoredFiles = File[] | ModfyFile[]

/**
 * This type represents the accepted file inputs
 *
 * There are three accepted file input types
 * 1. Array of Html File Object
 * 2. Array of Strings, File Paths (Node only)
 * 3. Array of {buffer, name, mimeType} 
    Here we are supporting buffers directly but require that you provide the name and mimeType
 */
type AcceptedFiles = StoredFiles | string[]

Caveats#

All files in the input array must be of same type
String paths are only supported in node
