A simple program to create movie-barcodes
Its a technique, where every frame in a movie gets compressed into a line, giving an idea of the colour palette used by the filmmakers. And it looks really cool!
ffmpeg needs to be installed!
git clone https://github.com/therealhe1ko/movie-barcode/
cd movie-barcode/
sudo pip3 install -r requirements.txt
./barcode.py OPTIONS
./barcode.py -s SOURCE
-o --OUTPUT: Define the output file
-w --BARWIDTH: Sets the width of each bar in the final image (Default: 5)
--avg: Uses the avg color of each frame, instead of a compressed version of the image. (Default: False)
--height: Sets the height of the final image (Default: same as src-video)
-i --INTERVAL: Defines the interval where the frames get picked out of the video (Default: 1000 == every Second)
--> If you use a long clip (more than 15 Minutes) i would suggest using a value around 10000
--> Otherwise the program uses too much disk-space
-v --VERBOSE: Enables verbose output
default result from a 240s clip
--avg result from same clip

This comes from ffmpeg, but its not critical. Theres no fix currently
