# Gocoder

## Features

- Lazily transcode via **HLS**
  - Support automatic quality switches
  - Support transmuxing as a quality
  - Allows multiples clients to share the same transcode stream
- Hardware acceleration support (vaapi, qsv, cuda)
- Extract **media info** from files (bitrate, chapters...) and stores it in database
- Extract and serves **subtitles** or attachments (like fonts)

## Usage

Gocoder is shipped as a docker image configurable via env variables (see `.env.example`). Using it outside Kyoo is supported.
There is no swagger as of now, you can look at `main.go` for the list of routes.

Projects using gocoder:
- Kyoo (obviously)
- [Meelo](https://github.com/Arthi-chaud/Meelo)
- [Blee](https://github.com/Arthi-chaud/Blee)
- Add your own?

## TODO:
- Add a swagger
- Add configurable JWT authorization (v5 of kyoo)
- Add credits/recaps/intro/preview detection
- Add multiples qualities for audio streams
- Improve multi-video support
- Add optional redis synchronization for replication (`RunLock` was made with this in mind)
- fmp4 support
- transcode downloads
