annie VS unifi-protect-remux

Symfony framework ecosystem has a configuration validator from different sources (yaml, json etc...) https://symfony.com/doc/current/components/config/definition.html. I thought creating one for Go. Here it is https://github.com/MarioLegenda/annie. It is a prototype done in a single day so it has a memory leak or two. Code review is fine but keep in mind its just a prototype. What I would like to know is this something necessary for the Go ecosystem and did you ever need something like this?

If you can rsync over the .ubv files, you could use unifi-protect-remix to convert them to .mp4 files.

A feature I really liked about the Unifi Protect platform was the option to select a portion of video using a timeline slider, and it would then extract those parts and concatenate them into a downloaded file. The problem with Protect is that they use proprietary UBV files for storage and the only other way to bulk export was using a remux tool.

I came across this unifi-protect-remux github project that is supposed to convert UVB files to MP4 and might be useful. The setup there could be complicated.

use this remux tool to convert the video files from .ubv to .mp4

One other thing I did is I whipped up a perl script that converted all the video files from the UDM-PRO drive into mp4 files on another drive, using the unifi protect remux program. It's not the best program (I'm a sysadmin, not a software developer) but it worked for me. It took just under 30 hours to do just shy of 7TB of ubv files. I went from:
