PyQt
Image Sequence To MP4 GUI

main index

Introduction

Having followed my instructions on the development PyQt application that wrote one or more ffmpeg scripts for compressing MP4 movies you are now challenged to develop, by yourself, a PyQt application for converting a sequence of images into a MP4 movie.

The minimum requirements of the application that you will implement using PyQt5 are as follows. The GUI should enable the user to,

• browse for the image that begins the sequence
• select the quality of the output MP4 movie
• select the width and height of the output MP4 movie
• select the playback speed (fps) of the output MP4 movie

This challange will be completed in two parts.

Part One (due session 9)

Initially, you are to sketch using pen/pencil and paper your design of the layout of the UI widgets. Your sketch or sketches should be photographed and linked to a web page that will eventually present a full technical breakdown of your solution to this challange. For the conclusion of this first part of the challenge you are to write the code that will implement your chosen design. The widgets are NOT expected to implement any functionality.

Part Two (due session 11)

During the second part of the challenge you will be expected to make the UI fully functional.
