Remotion Server

Render videos headlessly on any Linux server using Remotion v4 (latest: v4.0.435). No Mac or GUI required. Chrome Headless Shell handles all rendering - works on VPS, Raspberry Pi, CI runners, Docker containers, anywhere Node.js runs. FFmpeg is baked into each Remotion project - no separate FFmpeg install needed.

Setup (one-time)

Install browser dependencies for Chrome Headless Shell:

bash {baseDir}/scripts/setup.sh

This installs system libraries (libnss3, libatk, libgbm, libcups2, etc.) required by Chrome on headless Linux. Supports Ubuntu 22.04/24.04, Debian, and Amazon Linux.
