Clone this repository.

Create a virtual environment, for example, directory venv using Python's venv module.

python -m venv venv

Activate the new environment with:

source ./venv/bin/activate

Make sure the latest pip version is in your virtual environment:

pip install --upgrade pip

Install all dependencies:

apt install mediainfo ffmpeg
pip install -e ".[test,dev]"

Test run cli tool:

make-room --help

make_room Usage

# at project root
make-room ~/ec-keep/photos-videos/2024/

This finds video within the ~/ec-keep/photos-videos/2024/ directory and encodes them using H265 with a constant rate factor of 28.

to_avif Usage

# at project root
python src/make_room/to_avif.py ~/ec-keep/photos-videos/2024/

This finds jpeg pictures within the ~/ec-keep/photos-video/2024/ direcotry and encodes them to avif format, which has better compression (i.e. saves space).
