Rust idiomatic wrapper to libwebm MKV muxer.

Supports system-wide libwebm.

You'll also need libvpx to create VP8/VP9 frame data.


lib.rs:

A crate for muxing one or more video/audio streams into a WebM file.

Note that this crate is only for muxing media that has already been encoded with the appropriate codec. Consider a crate such as vpx if you need encoding as well.

Actual writing of muxed data is done through a mux::Writer, which lets you supply your own implementation. This makes it easy to support muxing to files, in-memory buffers, or whatever else you need. Once you have a mux::Writer, you create a mux::SegmentBuilder and add the tracks you need. Finally, you create a mux::Segment with that builder, to which you can add media frames.

In typical usage of this library, where you might mux to a WebM file, you would do:

use std::fs::File;
use webm::mux::{SegmentBuilder, VideoCodecId, Writer};

let file = File::open("./my-cool-file.webm").unwrap();
let writer = Writer::new(file);

// Build a segment with a single video track
let builder = SegmentBuilder::new(writer).unwrap();
let (builder, video_track) = builder.add_video_track(640, 480, VideoCodecId::VP8, None).unwrap();
let mut segment = builder.build();

// Add some video frames
let encoded_video_frame: &[u8] = &[]; // TODO: Your video data here
let timestamp_ns = 0;
let is_keyframe = true;
segment.add_frame(video_track, encoded_video_frame, timestamp_ns, is_keyframe).unwrap();
// TODO: More video frames

// Done writing frames, finish off the file
_ = segment.finalize(None).inspect_err(|_| eprintln!("Could not finalize WebM file"));
