Handling videos files

Videos are nothing but a collection of still images (frames), therefore, if we can extract images from the videos, we can apply our trusted CNN networks on the same. The only necessary thing to do is convert the video in to a list of frames:

1. The first thing we import are the requisite modules. We will need OpenCV to read the video and convert it in to frames. We will also need the math module for basic mathematical operations and Matplotlib for visualizing the frames:

import cv2 # for capturing videosimport math # for mathematical operationsimport matplotlib.pyplot as plt # for plotting the images%matplotlib inline

2. We read the video file using the OpenCV function and get its frame rate by using the property identifier, ...
