Video input and output stream classes.

File formats are determined from the suffix as follows:

• If the optional suffix argument is provided, that suffix will be used to determine the file type. Otherwise the filename will be analysed for a suffix separated by a ".".
• If the suffix ends in "cif", it is assumed that the sequence is stored in a single "cif"-type YUV file, whose image size is determined by that suffix (qcif, 4cif etc.).
• If the suffix is "pgm", "ppm" or "yuv", the sequence is stored in separate files, with one frame per file. The files are assumed to have names of the form "<name><nnn>.<suffix>", where <nnn> is the serial number of the file. By default this number can have any number of digits, with no leading zeros. If the number of digits is specified in the constructor, leading zeros are assumed.
  • For "pgm" and "ppm" formats, see man pnm.
  • The "yuv" format is as used on the Abekas disc store (i.e. a raw UYVY 4:2:2 format, 720 x 576 pixels).
