⚡ Quick Start

pip install celux  # cpu only version

pip install celux-cuda  # cuda+cpu

from celux import VideoReader
#import celux as cx
filters = [("scale", "1920:1080"), ("hue", "0.5")]
reader = VideoReader("/path/to/video.ext",
                    #num_threads: int = os.cpu_count(),
                    device = "cuda",
                    filters = filters
                    )
for frame in reader:
# do something
