mp4-to-unicode

Use this to show a video in the terminal (Unicode art)

Usage

Run python3 main.py <video.mp4> with the terminal maximized to display <video.mp4> as ascii art.

If you get _curses.error: addwstr() returned ERR try decreasing the font size.

Install dependencies

pip3 install opencv-python Pillow

(on Linux you may need to run sudo apt-get install ffmpeg libsm6 libxext6 -y to use opencv)


I usually don't create a PyPi package and a "usual program" but this is a special case, you can view the pypi package (it's actually better)
