hey
just wondering are there any programs that could delete duplicate frames in a video (recorded off webcam ;) ),
currently im extracting the images, deleted dupes with a Duplicate Image Finder, and then leaving as a pile of jpegs or encoding to another video file at 1fps
just wondering if i could just do it to the original video file
captures 320x240 from screen with camtasia, at 1fps

You can edit out parts using VirtualDub. Make sure "Direct Stream Copy" is selected in the video menu. It might not be frame accurate depending on how many key frames your Camtasia file has.

Since you put it that way, a lot of free time is what you need(just kidding). You can still use VirtualDub. Make sure "Direct Stream Copy" is selected on the video mode first. Then go to video>frame rate and select "Decimate by". If your video is 30fps then decimate by 29. If it's 25fps than decimate 24. The only problem with this method is that you don't get to specify which frame is used, but you did ask for automation.

Christ, you're just not going to make this easy are you! I'm only messin' with you, dude. If I understand you correctly, you want to save a single frame as an image for every second of your movie, right? -crosses fingers- If so, I use a program called Thumbnailer that can do that very thing. Get the trial version here: http://www.smalleranimals.com/thumb.htm#download

i can already do that with virtual dub, save image sequence. thats what i do now

Let's say your movie is 30 minutes long and it runs at 30fps. By doing what you suggest the movie will play in its entirety in one minute. Is that what you want? And by the way, Thumbnailer can extract a frame per every second automaticaly without any dupes at all.

lol no
ok
i record the webcams off the net, and they come in around 1 frame a second, but sometimes they stay on one frame so i capture at 1 frame a second, so when it does get stuck for a second or 2 it captures duplicates,
so i extract the pics with virtual dub, scan and delete the dupes with duplicate image finder, and then im left with teh pics which i can re encode into a movie at 1fps:P
but i wanna get a program that deletes those dupes in the movie itself and not bother extracting, its like a slideshow of captures, not a proper full speed movie
theres no 30fps to 1fps, its all 1fps

I think you are going to be stuck with your manual method for quite some time because I know of no such program that meets your criteria, nor do I think one even exists. I'd love for you to prove me wrong though. And with that, I bid you the very best of luck.
Cheers
