A video file consists of frames. These frames when appear before us in a rate more than our perception of vision, gives a sensation of an object moving before us, by looking just at the screen on which frames are appearing at high rate.

Thus one can say that frames are the fundamental entity of a video file.





In this project we are opening one video file, & grabbing each video frame. At last we are saving them frame by frame as an image file, in the folder "snaps" in the working directory.
