video_analyzer_rust

Rust-based video analysis tool that leverages the power of the FFmpeg library to process video files. It extracts metadata, counts frames, identifies key frames, and measures the duration of the video. The tool is designed to be efficient and can utilize multiple CPU cores for faster processing.

Installation

To install this project, you need to have Rust and Cargo installed on your system. You can follow the instructions here to install Rust and Cargo.

  1. Clone the repository:

    git clone https://github.com/zoharbabin/video_analyzer_rust.git
cd video_analyzer_rust

  2. Build the project:

    cargo build --release

Dependencies

This project relies on the following dependencies:

  • ffmpeg-next = "6.0.0"
  • indicatif = "0.17.6"
  • num_cpus = "1.16.0"
  • thiserror = "1.0.47"

Usage

To use this tool, run the following command:

cargo run --release -- <path_to_video_file> [<number_of_threads>]
  • <path_to_video_file>: The path to the video file you want to analyze.
  • [<number_of_threads>]: (Optional) The number of threads to use for processing. If not provided, it defaults to 1. If set to -1, it will use the number of available CPU cores.

Example

cargo run --release -- sample_video.mp4 4

This command will analyze the sample_video.mp4 file using 4 threads.
