中文说明

Install

Install video2chars:

pip install video2chars

If you're using an old version of pip, maybe you should add --prefer-binary to make things go right(or upgrade your pip first):

pip install video2chars --prefer-binary

This tool relies on imageio-ffmpeg, but only the binary version of imageio-ffmpeg contains the ffmpeg binary. if pip choose the source version, problem will occurs.

Usage

video2chars --width 120 --end 10 path/of/video_file

The command shows that the specified video will be converted to an ascii art animation with the width of 120, and only convert the first 10 seconds. you'll see a file named output.mp4 in your current directory when completes, have fun ~

p.s. it's a bit slow, turn down the width and fps, to speed up the conversion.

Check video2chars --help for more information.
