7
9 oggThumb [options] file1.ogv [ file2.ogv [ file3.ogv [...] ] ]
10
12 oggThumb creates Thumbnails from one or more ogg video files, at a
13 given time position or a given frame number. It is also possible to
14 create a series of thumbnails at different time or frame positions. The
15 pictures can be created in JPG or PNG format and can be resized to any
16 given size.
17
18 The default naming of each thumbnail series follows the following rule:
19
20 <filename_without_extension>_x.<picture_extension>
21
22 Where x starts with 0 and is incremented with every created thumbnail.
23 So the thumbnails are successively numbered by the appearance order.
24 This is even valid, if time positions and frame numbers are mixed.
25
26
28 -t Time at which a thumbnail should be created. More than one
29 thumbnail time can be concatenated by commas. The times can be
30 set by integer or floating point values in seconds. If the time
31 is not exactly matching, the next frame is used. The times don't
32 have to be sorted incrementally.
33
34 Example: -t 12.4,14.157,13.23
35
36
37 -f Number of a frame that should be created as a thumbnail. More
38 than one thumbnail frame can be concatenated by commas. The
39 frame numbers must be an integers. The frame numbers don't have
40 to be sorted incrementally.
41
42 Example: -f 12000,13000,11000
43
44
45 -s Picture output size. The thumbnail is created in the size given
46 as <width>x<height>. If you want to include the thumbnails into
47 your webpage and you need to have a fixed width but dynamic
48 height, you can set the dynamic axis to 0. So the aspect ratio
49 of the video frame is kept. This is the same for setting width
50 or height to 0.
51
52 Example: -s 0x100
53
54
55 -o Output format. This can be png or jpg. The default is jpg.
56
57 Example: -o png
58
59
60 -n Alternative thumbnail picture name. The % can be used within the
61 name to indicate the counter placeholder.
62
63 In case of more than one video file, the counter continuous
64 throughout the different videos, so that the pictures are not
65 overwritten.
66
67 If the name has an extension. This extension is used to identify
68 the output picture format.
