I want to overlap video with text
ChatGPT

To overlay text on a video using ffmpeg, you can use the drawtext filter. Here’s a basic example of how to do this:

sh
ffmpeg -i input_video.mp4 -vf "drawtext=text='Your Text Here':fontcolor=white:fontsize=24:x=10:y=10" -codec:a copy output_video.mp4

Here's a breakdown of the command:

  • ffmpeg: The command to run ffmpeg.
  • -i input_video.mp4: Specifies the input video file.
  • -vf "drawtext=...": The video filter to overlay text.
    • text='Your Text Here': The text to overlay on the video.
    • fontcolor=white: The color of the text.
    • fontsize=24: The size of the text.
    • x=10:y=10: The position of the text (in pixels) from the top-left corner.
  • -codec:a copy: Copies the audio stream without re-encoding.
  • output_video.mp4: Specifies the output video file.

You can customize the drawtext filter with additional options:

  • Positioning: You can use expressions like x=(w-text_w)/2 to center the text horizontally and y=(h-text_h)/2 to center it vertically.
  • Font: You can specify a custom font with fontfile=/path/to/font.ttf.
  • Shadow: You can add a shadow with options like shadowcolor and shadowx/shadowy.

Example with Custom Font, Centered Text, and Shadow

sh
ffmpeg -i input_video.mp4 -vf "drawtext=text='Your Text Here':fontfile=/path/to/font.ttf:fontcolor=white:fontsize=24:x=(w-text_w)/2:y=(h-text_h)/2:shadowcolor=black:shadowx=2:shadowy=2" -codec:a copy output_video.mp4

In this example, replace /path/to/font.ttf with the path to your desired font file.

Feel free to adjust the parameters as needed for your specific requirements.

API security best practices

 API with a focus on security best practices : Key Security Practices Included: Input Validation and Sanitization : All inputs are validated and sanitized to prevent SQL injection and other attacks. Prepared Statements : All database queries use prepared statements to avoid SQL injection. Password Hashing : Passwords are hashed using password_hash() and verified using password_verify() . Token-Based Authentication : JSON Web Tokens (JWTs) are used for secure API authentication. Error Hiding : Error details are logged but not exposed to users in production. Strict Content-Type Header : Ensures only JSON payloads are processed. Rate Limiting and Throttling : Optional mechanisms to prevent abuse. Validation for IDs : Integer inputs (like user_id or exam_id ) are explicitly validated.
