LOAD VIDEO#

LOAD VIDEO FROM FILESYSTEM#

LOAD VIDEO 'test_video.mp4' INTO MyVideo;

  • test_video.mp4 is the location of the video file in the filesystem on the client.

  • MyVideo is the name of the table in EvaDB where this video is loaded. Subsequent queries over the video must refer to this table name.

When a video is loaded, there is no need to specify the schema for the video table. EvaDB automatically generates the following schema with two columns: id and data, that correspond to the frame id and frame content (in Numpy format).

LOAD VIDEO FROM S3#

LOAD VIDEO 's3://bucket/dummy.avi' INTO MyVideo;
LOAD VIDEO 's3://bucket/eva_videos/*.mp4' INTO MyVideos;

The videos are downloaded to a directory that can be configured in the EvaDB configuration file under storage:s3_download_dir. The default directory is evadb_data/s3_downloads.
