Learn FFmpeg the hard way

I wrote about creating adaptive streaming over HTTP (MPEG-DASH) using ffmpeg and mp4box before [1]. It is nice to see that ffmpeg is incorporating more and more of the same features.

Has anybody got ffmpeg to create HLS out of mp4 fragments as well? It would save some conversion time and space, since the same MP4 fragments could be used with the two different manifest files, DASH and HLS. Mp4box is not quite there yet, sadly.

I think they're almost there in two ways. 1) is https://github.com/gpac/gpac/issues/790. 2) is to extend FFmpeg to include the MP4Box muxer: http://www.gpac-licensing.com/signals/

Thanks for the links. Yes, the gpac dev version is close to have a working solution - https://github.com/gpac/gpac/issues/772

Not quite sure what the signals project strives to be. Is it a framework for commercial applications built on top of gpac?
