What is Frames?

Frames library retrieves frames from video. It loads frames lazily under the hood. You can customize your frame fetching request as you need.

What is FrameRequest?

There are 3 types of frame request.

SingleFrameRequest

If you want to fetch a specific frame at the specific duration.

val singleFrameRequest = FrameRetrieveRequest.SingleFrameRequest(
    videoPath = "/storage/emulated/0/Download/sample.mp4",
    frameWidth = 400,
    frameHeight = 300,
    durationInMillis = 5213
)

MultiFrameRequest

If you want to fetch all frames with given interval. For instance, If you have 40 seconds video and frame duration is 2 second, Frames library gives you 20 frames.

val multiFrameRequest = FrameRetrieveRequest.MultipleFrameRequest(
    videoPath = "/storage/emulated/0/Download/sample.mp4",
    frameWidth = 400,
    frameHeight = 300,
    durationPerFrame = 2000
)

RangeFrameRequest

If you want to fetch frames with specific range from video with given interval. For instance, you have 40 seconds video and you want to fetch frames between 5. and 15. seconds.

val rangeFrameRequest = FrameRetrieveRequest.RangeFrameRequest(
    videoPath = "/storage/emulated/0/Download/sample.mp4",
    frameWidth = 400,
    frameHeight = 300,
    durationPerFrame = 4000,
    startDuration = 5000,
    endDuration = 15000
)

How to load frames?

Add to XML

 <com.momentolabs.frameslib.ui.view.VideoFramesLayout
      android:id="@+id/layoutFramesLayout"
      android:layout_width="wrap_content"
      android:layout_height="wrap_content"/>

Load

Frames.load(frameRequest).into(layoutFramesLayout)

Load frame bitmaps manually

Frames
    .load(frameRetrieveRequest)
    .into { framesResource ->
        when (framesResource.status) {
            Status.EMPTY_FRAMES -> // emit all empty frames initially. (you can draw your own custom view with this)
            Status.LOADING -> // Lazily emits frames while loading. This scope will be called serially until all frames loaded
            Status.COMPLETED -> // Called when all frames loaded.
        }
    }

You can also change provider type.

Frames
    .load(frameRetrieveRequest)
    .setProviderType(ProviderType.FFMPEG or ProviderType.NATIVE_ANDROID)
    .into{...}

How does it work behind the scene?
