Read frames from a video starting at a specific time or frame index, read frames within a specified interval, or read all the frames in the video.
- Jul 20, 2021 MP4 Reader is a tool for ISO based media file format and derived file format. Displaying detailed information about boxes (atoms) in ISO/IEC 14496-12, ISO/IEC 14496-14 and ISO/IEC 14496-15, Smooth Streaming Protocol Specification and Adobe Flash Video File Format Specification. Displaying detailed decoder specific configuration of each track.
- Online MPEG4 file parser.
- Dec 29, 2020 MP4 or MPEG-4 Part 14, is a digital multimedia container format, which is commonly used to store video and audio, but it can also be used to store other data such as subtitles and still images. It can work on almost all portable devices and it allows streaming over the Internet.
- Video Reading Performance on Windows® Systems: To achieve better video reader performance on Windows for MP4 and MOV files, MATLAB® uses the system’s graphics hardware for decoding. However, in some cases using the graphics card for decoding can result in poorer performance depending on the specific graphics hardware on the system.

Read Frames Beginning at Specified Time or Frame Index
Read part of a video file starting 0.5 second from the beginning of the file. Then, read the video starting from frame index 100 to the end of the video file.
Construct a VideoReader
object associated with the sample file 'xylophone.mp4'
.
Specify that reading should begin 0.5 second from the beginning of the file by setting the CurrentTime
property.
Read video frames until the end of the file is reached by using the readFrame
method.
Alternatively, you can read frames from a video starting at a specified frame index to the end of the video by using the read
method. Specify the indices to read as [100 Inf]
. The read
method returns all the frames starting at 100 to the end of the video file.
Read Frames Within Specified Interval
Mp4 Player Android
Read a part of a video file by specifying the time or frame interval.
Read the video frames between 0.6 and 0.9 seconds. First, create a video reader object and a structure array to hold the frames.
Then, specify that reading should begin 0.6 second from the beginning of the file by setting the CurrentTime
property.
Read one frame at a time until CurrentTime
reaches 0.9 second. Append data from each video frame to the structure array. View the number of frames in the structure array. s
is a 1-by-10 structure indicating that 10 frames were read. For information on displaying the frames in the structure s
as a movie, see the movie
function reference page.
Alternatively, you can read all the frames in a specified interval by using frame indices. For example, specify the second argument of read
as [18 27]
. The read
method returns a FrameSize
-by-10 array indicating that 10 frames were read.
Read All Frames
Read all the frames from video, one frame at a time or all the frames at once.
Mp4 Reader Free Download
Create a video reader object and display the total number of frames in the video.
Read all the frames, one frame at a time, by using the readFrame
method, and display the frames.
Alternatively, you can read all the video frames at once. The read
method returns a FrameSize
-by-141 array of video frames.
Troubleshooting and Tips For Video Reading
The
hasFrame
method might return logical1
(true) when the value of theCurrentTime
property is equal to the value of theDuration
property. This is due to a limitation in the underlying APIs used.Seeking to the last frame in a video file by setting the
CurrentTime
property to a value close to theDuration
value is not recommended. For some files, this operation returns an error indicating that the end-of-file has been reached, even though theCurrentTime
value is less than theDuration
value. This typically occurs if the file duration is larger than the duration of the video stream, and there is no video available to read near the end of the file.Use of the
Duration
property to limit the reading of data from a video file is not recommended. Use thehasFrame
method to check whether there is a frame available to read. It is best to read data until the file reports that there are no more frames available to read.Video Reading Performance on Windows® Systems: To achieve better video reader performance on Windows for
MP4
andMOV
files, MATLAB® uses the system’s graphics hardware for decoding. However, in some cases using the graphics card for decoding can result in poorer performance depending on the specific graphics hardware on the system. If you notice slower video reader performance on your system, turn off the hardware acceleration by typing:matlab.video.read.UseHardwareAcceleration('off')
. You can reenable hardware acceleration by typing:matlab.video.read.UseHardwareAcceleration('on')
.
