Making video fragment usable again
up vote 0 down vote favorite I'm compiling a dataset of images for a machine learning project, and the easiest way to collect thousands of relevant images is by extracting frames from video. However to save on time, and given slow bandwidth, it would be most efficient if I could download segments of a video, and process them that way. I can do this easily on the command line via curl "url" -o "path/to/outputfile.mp4" -r "startbyte-endbyte" And I can normally split a video file into individual jpeg images via ffmpeg -i "path/to/video_file.mp4" "path/to/output/image%06d.jpg" However, the problem I have run into is that ffmpeg does not like it when I give it a video fragment, and gives the following error Invalid data found when processing input Further, attempting to use the tool Untrunc gives the following error Failed to parse atoms in truncated file I'm looking for any way to be able to process these file fragments....
