This project allows you to process video files, apply a data moshing glitch art effect, and export the processed result as a new video. The program supports extracting frames from video files, applies a data moshing effect to the frames and then compiling them back into a new video.

The following instructions will guide you through the installation and usage of this software. Features

Extract frames from video files.
Compile transformed frames back into a video.
Customizable output dimensions, frame rate, glitch types, and more.

python = "3.13"
opencv-python = "^4.10.0.84"
pillow = "^11.0.0"

git clone https://github.com/miabobia/data_mosher.git

poetry install

Run the script main.py to process your video files. The program requires an input directory with .mp4 video files, and it will generate an output directory containing the processed video files and frames. Command Line Arguments

You can pass several options to customize the processing. Below are the available arguments: Argument Type Default Value Description --input-dir str (Required) Path to the directory containing .mp4 video files to process. --output-dir str ./output Path to the directory where processed files (frames, videos) will be saved. --output-video str video The name for the output video file (without extension). The output will be [output-video].mp4. --dimensions str 1920x1080 Output video dimensions in WIDTHxHEIGHT format.

python main.py --input-dir /path/to/your/videos --output-dir /path/to/output --output-video my_glitched_video --dimensions 1280x720 --fps 60 --mosh-rate 50

The program will:

Extract frames from all .mp4 files in the input directory.
Data mosh all the extracted frames
Save the processed frames to the output-dir under the transformed_frames directory.
Compile the transformed frames back into a video and save it with the provided name in the specified output directory.

The final video will be named [output-video].mp4, and it will be located in the output-dir specified.

Error: "Input directory does not exist": Ensure that the input directory exists and is correctly specified.
Error: "Invalid dimensions": Check that you have entered valid dimensions in the format WIDTHxHEIGHT, where both width and height are integers.
