Video Conversion and Docs

Videos displayed in the docs were recorded with Apple's screen grabbing tool and converted to mp4 using ffmpeg with quality level -q:v 15 (levels vary between 0 (best) and 31 (worst). They need to be copied to the docs/_static directory and referenced in the docs with relative paths

as

.. video:: ../_static/file.mp4

Here's three commands I usually use:

mv Screen\ Recording\ 2020-08-03\ at\ 16.56.15.mov lattice_SIR.mov
ffmpeg -i lattice_SIR.mov -q:v 15 lattice_SIR.mp4
mv lattice_SIR.mp4 ~/forschung/disease_dynamics/epipack/docs/_static/

Conversion to gif:

mv Screen\ Recording\ 2020-08-03\ at\ 16.56.15.mov out.mov
ffmpeg -i out.mov -vf "fps=10,scale=320:-1:flags=lanczos,split[s0][s1];[s0]palettegen[p];[s1][p]paletteuse" -loop 0 out.gif
mv out.gif ~/forschung/disease_dynamics/epipack/docs/
