Download video skipping frames about hikload HOT 4 CLOSED

Hello. I have introduced the ability to enable skipping frames in the commit ddaa243. Can you see if this is the requested feature? I will close this issue after you confirm this is what you wanted. To enable this new feature you need to set in config.py the option skipFrames to 10.

Hello @Tedyst

I check that you first download and then skip the video using ffmpeg. I want to download it already skipped.

Thanks.

I have added a way to skip the first x seconds of a stream by specifying the option skipSeconds or by using the config (for the main example file)

from hikload.

I do not want to skip the first N seconds. I want to skip N seconds for every frame downloaded. Or in other words, skip FPS*N frames for every downloaded frame.

Example:
Lets say I want a video. This video have 10 frames per second, and I want to skip 3 frames per downloaded frame. The process will be:

for second 1 video have frames: f1,f2,f3,f4,f5,f6,f7,f8,f9,f10. but I want to download frames: f1,f5,f9
for second 2 video have frames: f11,f12,f13,f14,f15,f16,f17,f18,f19,f20. but I want to download frames: f13,f17
for second 3 video have frames: f21,f22,f23,f24,f25,f26,f27,f28,f29,f30. but I want to download frames: f21,f25,f29

... and so on. Note that I skipped 3 frames between each downloaded frame. Is this posible to be done from the DVR/NVR directly?, I do not want to download the video and then skip, I want to download the skipped video directly from the net device. Frames 1,5,9,13,17,21,25,29 should be the only frames downloaded from the net device.
