AviGlitch

AviGlitch destroys your AVI files.

I can’t explain why they’re going to destroy their own data, but they do.

You can find a short guide at ucnv.github.io/aviglitch/. It provides a way to manipulate the data in each AVI frames. It will mostly be used for making datamoshing videos. It parses only container level structure, doesn’t parse codecs.

See following urls for details about visual glitch;

Usage

require 'aviglitch'

  avi = AviGlitch.open('/path/to/your.avi')
  avi.glitch(:keyframe) do |data|
    data.gsub(/\d/, '0')
  end
  avi.output('/path/to/broken.avi')

This library also includes a command line tool named datamosh. It creates the keyframes removed video.

$ datamosh /path/to/your.avi -o /path/to/broken.avi

For more practical usages, please check github.com/ucnv/aviglitch-utils/tree/master/bin.
