Clipseekr manages a reverse index of video sequences for the purpose of sequence detection. It encompasses two programs: (1) clipster, for the purpose of indexing a set of short video clips, and (2) clipseekr, a program to monitor a given stream for the occurence of previously indexed clips.

cmake .
make all
sudo make install

Set installation locations of ffmpeg and opencv by setting cmake variables FFMPEG_DIR and OPENCV_DIR. You can do this with cmake-gui .

Make sure opencv is compiled with gtk2.0 support.

Activate redis-server:

`redis-server /etc/redis/redis_6379.conf`

or alternatively, you can run the init script:

`sudo /etc/init.d/redis_6379 start`

Run clipster program to index movie clips. See options with

`./clipster --help`

Run clipseekr program to monitor a stream. Like so:

`./clipseekr --mode monitor -i <video_file.mpg>`

Use the -P (or --preview=1) flag for a video display.

The file name can be replaced with a network stream url or a device node (e.g. /dev/video0) for real time monitoring.

See all options for above programs with ./clipster --help and ./clipseekr --help

Be sure to compile OpenCV with gtk2.0 support!
