PyPI Changelog Tests License

CLI tool to extract text from videos using OCR on macOS.

Installation

Install this tool using pip:

pip install ocrvid

Usage

Run OCR on a video

To extract text from a video, run:

ocrvid run path/to/video.mp4

then ocrvid generates frames from the video and runs OCR on each frame. Frames are saved in a directory named .frames/ in the same directory as the video.

The text is saved in a json file named video.json in the same directory as the video. video.json looks like this:

{
    "video_file":"data/43TjPJ88xWU-worst.mp4",
    "frames_dir":"data/.frames",
    "frame_rate":100,
    "frames":[
        {
            "frame_file":"data/.frames/frame-300.png",
            "results":[
                {
                    "text":"目的地",
                    "confidence":0.5,
                    "bbox":[
                        0.34375000234374997,
                        0.6944444452380952,

                    ]
                },
                {
                    "text":"福岡市博多区",
                    "confidence":1.0,
                    "bbox":[
                        0.062203050380895686,

Interact with YouTube

orcvid has some commands to interact with YouTube.

To download a YouTube video without audio, run:

ocrvid youtube $video_id

To get information about a YouTube plalylist from YouTube API, you need to set YOUTUBE_API_KEY environment variable or store key by running:

ocrvid key set $key

You can see the path of the key file by running:

ocrvid key path

Once you set the key, you can run:

ocrvid youtube playlist $playlist_id

This saves the information about the playlist in a json file named playlist-{playlist_id}.json in the current directory.
