Scene detection in VLC?

Postby taganz » 25 Jan 2009 20:24

Is VLC able to analyze scene changes? I would like to extract an still image at every scene change in order to have a quick preview of a video (some time ago I've used a tool called sceneanalyzer to does this). Is this possible?

If this is not. Is it possible to tell VLC to extract a still image every N frames?

Thanks in advance for any clues....

(Excuse-me if this is a repeated question, I've been able to found it in the forum)

Well, it is not possible, but it could be doable with a video filter, based on the motion detection filter.

If you want an answer to your question, just be specific and precise. Don't use Private Messages.

In case you still need an answer to that question (or as a reference for other readers), I hope I can help you with this tutorial:

You mean doable for us (users) using VLC (as is)?
Or doable for you (developers) to add a new video filter?
