IBP support for transcode
|
|
|
|
This is the web page about IBP and related tools
|
|
http://loci.cs.utk.edu/
|
|
|
|
Binary utilities can user lors URI for input and/or output file.
|
|
|
|
If we want to access file in the IBP depot then URI in form
|
|
|
|
lors://host:port/local_path/file?bs=number&duration=number&copies=number&threads=number&timeout=number&servers=number&size=number
|
|
|
|
is used. User can also use the short form URI
|
|
|
|
lors:///local_path/file
|
|
|
|
When we want to read an IBP file, the local_path/file specifies local file
|
|
where is stored exNode with XML specification. When writing an IBP file the
|
|
local_path/file specifies local file where to store exNode with XML
|
|
specification of IBP depots used.
|
|
|
|
The paremeters in the full form of URI mean as follows:
|
|
|
|
host specification of L-Bone server location
|
|
port specification of L-Bone server port (default 6767)
|
|
bs specification of block-size for transfer in megabytes (default 10)
|
|
duration specification of allocation duration in seconds (default 3600s)
|
|
copies specification of number of copies (default 1)
|
|
threads specification of number of threads (concurrent TCP streams) (default 1)
|
|
timeout specification of timeout in seconds (default 100)
|
|
servers specification of number of unique IBP depots (default 1)
|
|
size specification of assumed file size in bytes (default 10MB)
|
|
|
|
There are environment variables that can be used instead of URI parameters for
|
|
the LoRS layer.
|
|
|
|
LBONE_SERVER specifies L-Bone server location
|
|
LBONE_PORT specifies L-Bone server port (default 6767)
|
|
LORS_BLOCKSIZE specifies block-size for transfer in megabytes (default 10)
|
|
LORS_DURATION specifies duration of allocation in seconds (default 3600s)
|
|
LORS_COPIES specifies number of copies (default 1)
|
|
LORS_THREADS specifies number of threads (concurrent TCP streams) (default 1)
|
|
LORS_TIMEOUT specifies timeout in seconds (default 100)
|
|
LORS_SERVERS specifies number of unique IBP depots (default 1)
|
|
LORS_SIZE specifies assumed file size in bytes (default 10MB)
|
|
|
|
At least LBONE_SERVER or host must be set.
|
|
|
|
Transcode program can be used in almost traditional way. If we want to store
|
|
the file to the IBP depot then URI in form lors:///local_path/file is used
|
|
instead of local file name. The environment variables should be set unless user
|
|
specifies URI in its full form. The same form of URI can be used for loading
|
|
the file from the IBP depot. Transcode can read and write ordinary local files
|
|
as well. The prefix lors:// is required for accessing IBP, otherwise local file
|
|
is used.
|
|
|
|
For example:
|
|
|
|
LBONE_SERVER=our.ibp.host;
|
|
transcode -i lors:///video.dv.xnd -P1 -N 0x1 -y raw -o lors:///temp1-remux.avi.xnd -E 44100,16,2 -J resample
|
|
|
|
Transcode will use source file identified by serialized description of IBP
|
|
exNode stored in video.dv.xnd file on local disc in the current directory. The
|
|
L-Bone server location is taken from environment variable (referring to
|
|
our.ibp.host) and resulting serialized exNode XML description will be
|
|
stored in the current directory as temp1-remux.avi.xnd
