How do I install FFmpeg in a Modal container using this skill?

It provides ready-to-use Python snippets using .apt_install('ffmpeg') for standard images or from_registry patterns for specialized CUDA environments.

How does it handle large video files?

The skill includes implementation patterns for Modal Volume mounting and temporary directory management to handle large file I/O efficiently in a serverless environment.

Can I process thousands of videos at once?

Absolutely. It leverages Modal's native scaling capabilities using map and starmap to distribute FFmpeg tasks across hundreds or thousands of containers instantly.

Is this compatible with ML models like Whisper?

Yes, the skill provides specific integration patterns for pre-processing audio with FFmpeg before running inference on models like OpenAI's Whisper.

Does this skill support GPU acceleration?

Yes, it provides specific configurations for NVIDIA GPUs like T4 and A10G, including setup patterns for NVENC and the full CUDA toolkit.
