DVR-Scan is a command-line application that automatically detects motion events in video files (e.g. security camera footage). DVR-Scan looks for areas in footage containing motion, and saves each event to a separate video clip. DVR-Scan is free and open-source software, and works on Windows, Linux, and Mac.

Quickstart

Install using pip:

pip install –upgrade dvr-scan[opencv]

Scan video.mp4 (separate clips for each event):

dvr-scan -i video.mp4

Only scan a region of interest (see user guide or hit H for controls):

dvr-scan -i video.mp4 -r

Draw boxes around motion:

dvr-scan -i video.mp4 -bb

Use ffmpeg to extract events:

dvr-scan -i video.mp4 -m ffmpeg
