Fixing pixel aspect ratio from NTSC footage

I am working with stills from mpeg NTSC footage that I extract with ffmpeg. the pixel resolution is 720x480 but they are rectangular pixels not square. This becomes an issue with some other programs i use, they want a square pixel aspect ratio. I know video players will compensate and playback this ...

Here is the first command: convert f1.png f2.png f3.png f4.png f5.png -evaluate-sequence Min -threshold 60% -negate output.pn...

Re: Extract text from an image

Okay your last line does the trick. I did put in "Min" before but that was it. I thought it was part of -evaluate-sequence and didn't know i had to add threshold to it. With the negate i get excatly what i was looking for. Thank you very much i'll just experiment to find the right amount o...

Re: Extract text from an image

Okay now i'm making progress. I didn't realize i use -threshold to change the tolerance. Also i extracted my video files to png rather than jpg. Reading ffmpeg howto's this appears to save the image lossless. I'm a little confused at your other suggestion: Instead of single frames, you might take av...

Extract text from an image

So I want to extract the text from an image. Seems doable since i can get multiple images that are different, except for the text that i need. Sample: https://www.dropbox.com/s/s607p2a2g1zzed3/Image_1_2.gif?dl=0 I think I should be able to compare the two images and discard what is different, leavin...
