R: Convert video to images

av_video_images {av} | R Documentation

## Convert video to images

### Description

Splits a video file in a set of image files. Default image format is jpeg which has good speed and compression. Use `format = "png"` for losless images.

### Usage

    av_video_images(video, destdir = tempfile(), format = "jpg", fps = NULL)

### Arguments

`video` | an input video
`destdir` | directory where to save the png files
`format` | image format such as `png` or `jpeg`, must be available from `av_encoders()`
`fps` | sample rate of images. Use `NULL` to get all images.

### Details

For large input videos you can set fps to sample only a limited number of images per second. This also works with fractions, for example `fps = 0.2` will output one image for every 5 sec of video.
