ffmpeg on google colab.

[vitorpsogarcia]

Hello, I've been running your extension through google colab, it saves the intermediates, but not the videos, any idea how I can use ffmpeg in the colab so that it is recognized by the intermediate images?

Have you tried
!apt install ffmpeg

?

Thanks. It's an error on os.link. Apparently this is the case:

If you connected to an SMB/FTP/.. (etc) file systems remotely, you can't create a hard link (security policy).

(https://askubuntu.com/questions/1178797/ln-failed-to-create-symbolic-link-function-not-implemented)

I'll see if I can implement an alternative for this case.

First I want to thank you for the extension, it's amazing, although it doesn't work in Colab, I could already see that it's excellent by videos and the examples on GitHub, in fact, they served to make me even more eager to use it.

I'm looking forward to the update!

Thank you.

I first tried symobolic links, but they run into the same issue. Now I simply copy the files, if the link fails. That will temporarily take up more space, but it shouldn't be that much.

Can you check if it works for you with the latest update?

It fit like a glove. You just made me the happiest person on the face of planet earth.
