Build videos from image directories

flippy

Python script for generating videos by rapidly flipping through or overlaying images.

Requirements

• OpenCV
• numpy

Usage

Simple example:

flippy /some/image/path

INFO:root:Auto-detected image dimensions as 64x64...
INFO:root:Building fading timelapse of 24247 images in /some/path/faces...
INFO:root:Output settings: 64x64 @ 20.0 FPS
INFO:root:Successfully wrote video.avi

Slightly more complicated example:

flippy /some/image/path -o ~/output.avi -f 60.0 -c XVID -t blend

INFO:root:Auto-detected image dimensions as 64x64...
INFO:root:Building fading timelapse of 24247 images in /some/path/faces...
INFO:root:Output settings: 64x64 @ 60.0 FPS
INFO:root:Successfully wrote /home/user/output.avi
