(c is Glitch Frequency and n is Frame Frequency) Note that if you mosh the same files in the same location again, then the new moshed file will replace the old file.Then your video will be moshed, see the video in the directory".Then just click on the datamosh button, then wait for a few seconds".Use advance options to get more accurate results".Choose the desired datamosh mode, then select the export format".Input the video file first (supported formats- mp4, gif, avi + more will be added if you demand").Note: For python users, make sure you have all the assets with the python file and Imageio module installed in your system if not then open CMD and type"pip install imageio" and it will be installed. There is no malware or difference in the exe version(as the same python version is converted to. You can either use the python based version for viewing logs and changing source code if you want, but if you are looking for faster renders then download the executable version of Datamosher Pro from the release page( ) With Datamosher Pro, you can quickly and easily datamosh your videos(supports mp4, gif, avi, etc). It contains 7 different effects and more will be added in future, you can also help to make new effects.

You'll probably knock out the keyframe in doing that, and the next time you play the video, it will be screwed up! If you wanted to do this realtime, you'd have to have some amount of buffer or dual head playback so you could look ahead for a keyframe, then knock it out before you play it back to the viewer.Datamoshing is an effect that really looks cool and if you also want to make this glitch effect with your videos, you are in the right place!


So, now you ask, how do you know which frames are keyframes? But this article goes inside the process used in Kanye's video in good detail:Īn algorithmic approach might be to analyze an MP4 videostream for cuts (where the difference between 2 frames is relatively large), then cut out the surrounding frames. However, by removing the keyframe it's assumptions are now "wrong" and you get the lovely effect. Once the keyframes are gone, there's no reference for the codec, so it just goes along and does what codecs do, which is recalculate the image based on assumptions. As i understand it, it's a matter of removing the frames that serve as keyframes.
