video_reader_t *video_reader_alloc_init(const char *path, const size_t start, const size_t end, const size_t skip, const int bufferize, const size_t n_ffmpeg_threads, int *i0, int *i1, int *j0, int *j1)

Allocation and initialization of inner data required for a video reader.

Parameters

• path – Path to the video or images.

• start – Start frame number (first frame is frame 0).

• end – Last frame number (if 0 then the video sequence is entirely read).

• skip – Number of frames to skip between two frames (0 means no frame is skipped).

• bufferize – Boolean to store the entire video sequence in memory first (this is useful for benchmarks but usually the video sequences are too big to be stored in memory).

• n_ffmpeg_threads – Number of threads used in FFMPEG to decode the video sequence (0 means FFMPEG will decide).

• i0 – Return the first \(y\) index in the labels (included).

• i1 – Return the last \(y\) index in the labels (included).

• j0 – Return the first \(x\) index in the labels (included).

• j1 – Return the last \(x\) index in the labels (included).

Returns

The allocated data.
