movart

This work is based on previous work here. While art does only ASCII conversion for static images, movart does the same for mp4 encoded videos. Just like before, you can choose between monochrome, gray scale and color characters. Movart also supports playing the audio stream if desired using the -audio option.

Example Usage:

./movart -file video.mp4

./movart -file video.mp4 -audio

./movart -file video.mp4 -mode gray -audio

./movart -file video.mp4 -mode color -audio

./movart -file video.mp4 -alphabet "*\. " -fontfile courier_prime.ttf
