For developers
Prefer the web app? Point it at your own FFmpeg.
The bridge is a small local server that runs your installed ffmpeg binary on behalf of the browser app. Your build, your codecs, your hardware — files never leave your machine.
Runs any FFmpeg you already have, including custom builds with non-free codecsNothing is uploaded: the browser posts to localhost and reads the result backStudio detects the version and lists the encoders your build actually supports
Install and run
# runs on http://localhost:7341npx @beemmeup/ffmpeg-bridge# or install it globallynpm i -g @beemmeup/ffmpeg-bridge && beem-bridge
Then open Studio, click the runtime cog, and switch to Bridge. It will detect the version and list the encoders your build supports.
Which one do I want?
The browser app
Best for learning and drafting. Nothing to install, real encodes on ffmpeg.wasm, fine for clips up to a few hundred megabytes.
The desktop app
Best for real work. Hardware encoding, no size limit, direct filesystem access, and it keeps working offline.
The bridge
Best if you already live in a terminal. Keep the browser app and let it drive the exact FFmpeg build you maintain.
