Background

It’s quite common for me to build a tool for myself to do a specific task. These tools are usually pretty crude and never get shared. This tool is an exception, it’s still grossly crude but I’m sharing it.

I was sorting through a large number of video files. I wasn’t certain what each file contained and playing each video was frustratingly slow. I needed a tool that would read a video file and give me a few video frames. And this Video Preview was born.
