如何从视频中提取图像作为 Azure 媒体服务 v3 中编码的一部分？

Question

Here is what I am trying to do.

I am analyzing videos and based on my analysis I know at certain time intervals I need to capture a screenshot. I want this to be taken care of as part of encoding but I don't see any documentation that lets me achieve it in v3. Is this even possible in v3?

Answer 1

This feature (key frames) is available on Video Indexer. More info in here:

Answer 2

You can use the v3 APIs to generate thumbnails at fixed intervals. In the sample here , you can see how the PngImage and PngFormat elements are used. You can also output JPEG images - the schema details are here .
