If you mean avconv, yes, absolutely.

Wrong. as many images you feed, so many frames you get, normally. If you ask avconv to filter the input frames to they get decimated that's another issue. > Anyway, can anybody please help how I can analyse a video file ---- how > many frames (better, both audio and video streams) in such a video file? http://libav.org/avprobe.html#Synopsis avprobe gathers information from multimedia streams and prints it in human- and machine-readable fashion. For example it can be used to check the format of the container used by a multimedia stream and the format and type of each media stream contained in it. If a filename is specified in input, avprobe will try to open and probe the file content. If the file cannot be opened or recognized as a multimedia file, a positive exit code is returned. avprobe may be employed both as a standalone application or in combination with a textual filter, which may perform more sophisticated processing, e.g. statistical processing or plotting. Options are used to list some of the formats supported by avprobe or for specifying which information to display, and for setting how avprobe will show it. avprobe output is designed to be easily parsable by any INI or JSON parsers. I hope it helps. -- Luca Barbato Gentoo/linux http://dev.gentoo.org/~lu_zero _______________________________________________ libav-tools mailing list [email protected] https://lists.libav.org/mailman/listinfo/libav-tools
