Usage

To use Video2Image, follow these steps:

1. Open a terminal or command prompt.

2. Run the video2image command followed by the required arguments:

   video2image -i /path/to/video.mp4 -o /path/to/output/folder
   

   Replace /path/to/video.mp4 with the actual path to your video file, and /path/to/output/folder with the desired output folder path.

   The frames will be extracted from the video and saved as individual images in the specified output folder.

   You can also provide additional command-line arguments such as -p to include the parent directory in the output path or -h to display the help message.

3. If you want to extract frames from multiple video files in a directory, specify the input directory instead of a single video file:

   video2image -i /path/to/video/directory -o /path/to/output/folder
   

   The script will process all the video files in the input directory and save the extracted frames in the output folder.

That's it! You have successfully extracted frames from video files using Video2Image.
