Introduction

Welcome to MediaProc - the universal media processing CLI that unifies all your media workflows into one powerful tool.

What is MediaProc?

MediaProc is a modern, plugin-based command-line interface designed to process any type of media file. Whether you're working with images, videos, audio, documents, or 3D models, MediaProc provides a consistent and intuitive interface.

The Problem We Solve

Traditional media processing is fragmented:

  • Multiple Tools: FFmpeg for videos, ImageMagick and Sharp for images, SoX for audio
  • Inconsistent Interfaces: Each tool has different command syntax
  • Complex Workflows: Chaining tools requires custom scripts
  • Steep Learning Curve: Learn multiple tools separately

Our Solution

One tool. Consistent interface. Extensible architecture.

Traditional vs MediaProc
# Traditional approach (different tools, different syntax)
$ convert input.jpg -resize 1920x1080 output.jpg
$ ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -c:v h264 -crf 23 output.mp4
# MediaProc approach (one tool, consistent syntax)
$ mediaproc image resize input.jpg --width 1920 --height 1080
✓ Resized successfully
$ mediaproc video transcode input.mp4 --codec h264 --crf 23
✓ Transcoded successfully
