You must have ffmpeg installed to use this library.

• Install directly from GitHub:

Usage

• https://raw.githubusercontent.com/akamhy/videohash/main/assets/rocket.webm is copy of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PapBjpzRhnA, both of these files are about the Artemis program and SLS rocket.

• https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_T8cn2J13-4 is a completly different video also about the Artemis program.

>>> import videohash
>>> hash1 = videohash.from_url("https://raw.githubusercontent.com/akamhy/videohash/main/assets/rocket.webm")
>>> str(hash1)
'7c7e7ff9ffff0000'
>>> hash2 = videohash.from_url("https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PapBjpzRhnA")
>>> str(hash2)
'fc7e7ffbffff0000'
>>> 
>>> diff = hash1 - hash2
>>> diff
2
>>> 
>>> hash3 = videohash.from_url("https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_T8cn2J13-4")
>>> diff = hash1 - hash3
>>> diff
37
>>> str(hash3)
'3cffff0000000eff'
>>> 

• Notice that the difference of hash1 and hash2 is 2, but the difference between hash1 and hash3 is 37.

• The difference of hash1 and hash2 is not 0 as the file in this repository is slightly modified.

• You can hash local video using videohash.from_path("<absolute path to video>").

• Public domain files used. NASA copyright policy states that "NASA material is not protected by copyright unless noted".

• We create collage of frames and actually are calculating image hashes under the hood.
