Video Frame Splitter

This Python project allows you to split a video file into individual image frames.

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/userHarpreet/frameSplit.git

2. Install the required dependencies:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Usage

To split an video file into frames, run the following command:

python frameSplit.py [--start-time START_TIME] [--end-time END_TIME] [--fps FPS] [--image-type {jpg,png,bmp}] video_path output_dir

This will extract all frames from the video file and save them as PNG images in the specified output directory.

Options

positional arguments:

• video_path Path to the input video file
• output_dir Path to the output directory for saving frames

optional arguments:

• --start-time START_TIME Start time in HH:MM:SS format
• --end-time END_TIME End time in HH:MM:SS format
• --fps FPS Specify the frames per second to extract (default: 24)
• --image-type {jpg,png,bmp} Set the image type for output frames (e.g. jpg, png, bmp)

Example

python frameSplit.py ./movie.mkv ./frames --start-time 00:15:00 --end-time 00:20:00 --fps 30 --image-type jpg

This will extract frames from 15 minutes to 20 minutes in the movie.mkv file at 30 fps, saving them as JPG images in the ./frames directory.

Dependencies

• python >=3.6
• opencv-python
