I have bunch of videos which are rather long, so I take screenshots of 10th second (-ss 00:00:10
). Sometimes videos are very short, like 5 seconds, and -ss 00:00:10
fails.
I don't have an option to compute video size as don't have an option to download them whole (videos are hosted on S3 and used as streams through CloudFront).
Maybe there are some built-in options that I overlooked?
What I really don't want to do is shorten -ss
option gradually on fails so it would be the last resort.
