Hi All,

I’m screening a large media library (20TB) wherein some files got corrupted when I did a transfer via filezilla (by my guess ~10%). The corrupted files display with a green “filter” over every frame (when played via plex and a number of local video players playing the file directly).

I’d like to screen the library, and want to write a script to get an average color reading.

Are there any libraries that would let me return a value AND specify how many frames I want it to take the average of? Because of how consistent and defined the issue is, it’s really not necessary to average the whole file.

It would also be great if it automatically skipped non-video files, but I imagine a simple “try/except” would be fine.

My skill level here is best described as “high level hobbyist”. I’m familiar with what I need to do iterating over the folder etc, but would prefer not to learn how to pull specific frames from a video container unless I have to.

Thanks for any help!
