ts
import { downloadMedia } from "@remotion/lambda";
 
const { outputPath, sizeInBytes } = await downloadMedia({
bucketName: "remotionlambda-r42fs9fk",
region: "us-east-1",
renderId: "8hfxlw",
outPath: "out.mp4",
onProgress: ({ totalSize, downloaded, percent }) => {
console.log(
`Download progress: ${totalSize}/${downloaded} bytes (${(
percent * 100
).toFixed(0)}%)`
);
},
});
 
console.log(outputPath); // "/Users/yourname/remotion-project/out.mp4"

Arguments

An object with the following properties:

region

The AWS region in which the render has performed.

bucketName

The bucket name in which the render was stored. This should be the same variable you used for renderMediaOnLambda() or renderStillOnLambda().

renderId

The ID of the render. You can retrieve this ID by calling renderMediaOnLambda() or renderStillOnLambda().

outPath

Where the video should be saved. Pass an absolute path, or it will be resolved relative to your current working directory.

onProgress

optional

Callback function that gets called with the following properties:

  • totalSize in bytes
  • downloaded number of bytes downloaded
  • percent relative progress between 0 and 1

customCredentials

optional, available from v3.2.23

If the render was saved to a different cloud, pass an object with the same endpoint, accessKeyId and secretAccessKey as you passed to renderMediaOnLambda() or renderStillOnLambda().

Return value

Returns a promise resolving to an object with the following properties:

outputPath

The absolute path of where the file got saved.

sizeInBytes

The size of the file in bytes.
