Geek asks and answers

I need to take a snapshot of the video being played in the browser.

Suppose the video plays in a browser. There is a button below the video. Clicking on which I need to capture a snapshot of video playback and the reading on the slider below it.

I need something in jQuery or java.

If the video is not a live stream, you can find a suitable answer in this piece of code that I wrote some time ago for a small media project. This is PHP, but you can apply the same concept to other languages.

public function actionAjaxSetThumbnailFromFrame()
{
    if(!isset($_POST['Video'], $_POST['Video']['id']) || !isset($_POST['time']))
        throw new CHttpException(400,'Invalid request.');

    $video = Video::model()->findByPk($_POST['Video']['id']);
    $path = Utils::generateUniquePath("thumbnail.jpg", Config::getParam('mediaPath'));

    $command = "ffmpeg  -itsoffset -{$_POST['time']}  -i \"$video->filePath\" -vframes 1 -an -f image2 \"$path\"";
    //generate thumbnail
    exec(
        $command,
        $out,
        $retval
    );

    $thumbnail = new Image();
    $thumbnail->name = basename($path);
    $thumbnail->serverUrl = '';
    $thumbnail->filePath = $path;
    $thumbnail->relativeServerUrl = Utils::relativeUrlPath($path);
    $thumbnail->save();

    [...]
}

, . ffmpeg (http://ffmpeg.org/), .

:

$command = "ffmpeg  -itsoffset -{$_POST['time']}  -i \"$video->filePath\" -vframes 1 -an -f image2 \"$path\"";

Java - :

String command = "ffmpeg  -itsoffset -"+time+"  -i \""+videoPath+"\" -vframes 1 -an -f image2 \""+screenshotPath+"\"";
Process child = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(command);

javascript ajax- .
