slide-extractor.py

This is the newest iteration of the script and uses the Decord library to read frames from the video.

If you have trouble installing Decord, follow the installation instructions on their page here.

Older versions

slide-extractor-opencv.py (legacy)

This script uses opencv to read frames from the video. This is twice as slow when compared with the previous script.

# Install dependencies
pip install opencv-contrib-python pillow imagehash

# Run script
python slide-extractor-opencv.py <NameofVideoFile/Directory>

slide-extractor-opencv-multiprocessing.py (legacy)

This script uses opencv to read frames from the video. This is faster than the other opencv script, but a major drawback is that no progress bar or indication of processing is shown to the user.

# Install dependencies
pip install opencv-contrib-python pillow imagehash

# Run script
python slide-extractor-opencv-multiprocessing.py <NameofVideoFile/Directory>
