The Movie Masher AMI includes the entire moviemasher.js open source repository, with both its ReactJS client and ExpressJS server. Together they provide the front and back ends of this complete audio/video editing system. Modern JavaScript facilitates a realtime, low resolution preview in the browser, while FFmpeg is utilized under the hood to render a final video from high resolution source material. The result can be formatted and encoded as needed for download or streaming.
Highlights
Open source under the Mozilla Public License version 2.0, available on Github, NPM, and DockerHub
Browser preview is SVG based and has no dependencies, while the rest of the editor is implemented as a ReactJS application
The FFmpeg filter chain mechanism is essentially replicated in the browser, allowing many potential effects to be configured

You pay by the hour for this software running on an Amazon Machine Image (AMI). Pricing is organized by EC2 instance type, so your rate depends on the instance you launch. The options span several families: t2 for general-purpose use, m4 for balanced compute and memory, c3 and c4 for compute-focused work, r3 and r4 for memory-intensive tasks, and g2 for GPU workloads. Within each family, larger sizes carry higher hourly rates. You can match instance size to your video editing and rendering workload, and stop paying when you stop the instance.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What do I get when I launch one of these hourly instances?
You get a ready-to-run Amazon Machine Image with the video editor, encoder, and switcher installed. It bundles the ReactJS client and ExpressJS server, plus the rendering engine. You run it inside your own AWS account and pay the software rate for each hour the chosen EC2 instance runs.
Am I charged when the instance is stopped or paused?
The software rate meters only running instance-hours. When you stop the instance, software charges stop too. You pay again when you start it. Note that stopped instances may still accrue AWS storage fees for attached volumes, which are separate from the hourly software charge.
Why choose a GPU g2 instance over a compute or memory family?
The g2 family adds GPU hardware, which can speed up visual compositing and video rendering. The c3 and c4 families favor CPU-heavy encoding. The r3 and r4 families suit memory-heavy editing of large projects. You match the instance family to your workload and pay that family's hourly rate.

An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.
Version release notes
New container/content pattern, vector-based masking, transform/color tweening, reorganized inspector.

Transcoding audio and video is extremely processor intensive, so while installation might be possible on most machines it isn't reccommended for all environments. In particular, running alongside a web server is only practical for demonstration purposes. Typically in production a pool of machines is deployed with each instance running a single process solely engaged in transcoding.
