Encorr

A user friendly video transcoding application designed to save storage space by converting video files.

Quick Start

Installation

npm install
npm run build

Starting the Server

npm run dev:server

The server will start on http://localhost:8100

Starting a Node

npm run dev:node

Or build and use the CLI directly:

npm run build:node
node packages/node/dist/cli/index.js start --server ws://localhost:8100 --name "My Node" --cache ./cache

Architecture

• Server: Web GUI + Backend API + WebSocket server + SQLite database
• Node: CLI application that performs actual transcoding using HandBrake CLI
• Communication: WebSocket for real-time bidirectional communication

Requirements

• Node.js 20+
• HandBrake CLI (for transcoding nodes)
