Membrane Core
The core of Membrane Framework, multimedia processing framework
membrane_core is the foundation of the Membrane multimedia framework for Elixir, providing the abstractions and runtime needed to build real-time audio and video pipelines. It models media processing as a graph of lightweight, supervised OTP processes—elements connected by links—so work is isolated, fault-tolerant, and easy to scale or reconfigure at runtime. The core defines a clear lifecycle and callback API for elements, plus concepts like buffers, events, and capabilities/format negotiation to keep components interoperable and type-safe. Back-pressure, scheduling, and time synchronization are handled by the framework, enabling low-latency streaming and precise playback control without ad-hoc concurrency code. Developers compose pipelines from reusable building blocks and can dynamically add, remove, or switch elements while the system is running. -

Transcoder
Hardware-accelerated video transcoding using Android MediaCodec APIs
Transcoder by DeepMedia is an AI-powered video-to-video speech translation engine that enables fully automated multilingual dubbing. Unlike traditional speech translation systems that rely on multi-stage pipelines, Transcoder directly translates one speaker’s video into another language while preserving facial expressions, lip-sync, and vocal identity. Designed for real-time use and production-grade pipelines, Transcoder combines advanced deep learning models with GPU acceleration to deliver high-quality translations across languages. It’s built with researchers and developers in mind, offering tools for testing, evaluating, and deploying AI-driven media localization. -

QtlMovie
A specialized Qt frontend for FFmpeg and other free media tools
QtlMovie is a graphical frontend to FFmpeg, DVD Author, telxcc, CCExtractor, mkisofs and growisofs. QtlMovie is not a general purpose frontend to FFmpeg, so many of them already exist. QtlMovie focuses on a small number of tasks such as the generation of DVD or iPad movie files from any video file or DVD. The unique feature of QtlMovie is the ability to correctly handle most types of subtitles: DVD, DVB, SRT, SSA/ASS, Teletext, Closed Captions and burn them into the output video in one click. -

Aeyae Remux
GOP-based video editor (remuxer)
Aeyae Remux can be used to extract portions of original video into a separate file. Aeyae Remux is a GOP-based editor (GOP = Group Of Pictures), which means it doesn't do any transcoding, only remuxing. However, it can truncate a GOP. Aeyae Remux can be used to stitch together files... within reason. Since it is only a remuxer -- stitched files must be of compatible format. This means stitched files must have the same audio/video codecs, and codec properties (width, height, sample rate, etc...). That said... Aeyae Remux currently doesn't check or enforce this restriction, so beware -- garbage input will likely produce garbage output. Linux binaries are provided as AppImage, built on Ubuntu 14.04. 8 GB of RAM (but more is better) is highly recommended if working with source files longer than 2 hours. -

MediaCoder Agent
The encoding agent for MediaCoder distributed transcoding
MediaCoder Agent is used to form a distributed transcoder with MediaCoder. It is light-weight, portable and open-source. It receives video frames sent by MediaCoder via TCP, encodes them with the requested video encoder and sends encoded elementary stream back to MediaCoder. There is no disk I/O in this procedure. -

A python library and commandline tool for downloading shows from your Tivo. Does not require a hacked tivo. Combined with Tivodecode, it can decrypt the shows as well. I would recommend transcoding them after the fact with something like Handbrake for greater device compatibility.
