ffmpeg -i young_sheldon_s01e08.mkv -vf "fps=1/30,scale=160:120,tile=4x4" -frames:v 1 preview_grid.jpg This takes one frame every 30 seconds and arranges them in a grid. Some fans prefer a “clean” audio track without the live audience. If you have a 5.1 audio track, the laugh track is often isolated in the center channel. You can mute just the center:
ffmpeg -i young_sheldon_s01e08.mkv -filter_complex "[0:a:0]pan=stereo|FL=FC|FR=FC[a]" -map 0:v -map "[a]" -c:v copy no_laughs.mkv (Results vary. This is more of a fun experiment than a perfect solution.) If Sheldon ran a terminal, his aliases would look like this: young sheldon s01e08 ffmpeg
Now go enjoy the episode. And remember: Bazinga is trademarked. Don’t put it in your filenames. Drop it in the comments. Just don’t mention the S3 finale. Too many feels. ffmpeg -i young_sheldon_s01e08
