Feature Request: Deduplication without interpolation

Open LeoStaley opened this issue 4 months ago • 1 comments

I've got some videos that were originally 24 frames per second, but the video file I have is 30 frames per second, and just has duplicate frames every 6th frame.

I don't know any other video software that deletes duplicate frames at all, so it would be mighty nice to just be able have the output just be the original 24 frames per second with all the duplicate frames removed, with no interpolation.

Under the hood flowframes is using FFmpeg and its MPDecimate filter for duplicate detection and removal.

Here is a guide on how to use the mpdecimate filter to remove frames: https://trembit.com/blog/ffmpeg-mpdecimate-filter-for-dummies/

Full documentation of MPDecimate: https://ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg-filters.html#mpdecimate
