A lightweight python class to read .movie files and do the basics.
First clone the repository
git clone git@github.com:gnhm/python-temika-reader.git
or, if this is complicated for you, download it.
Next, import the Movie class and create an instance of it
from pytmk import Movie
m = Movie("/home/crsid/data/super_cool_experiment.movie")
Now you can use m in a variety of ways
get_frame_header(int i) gives you the Temika header information for the ith frame in the format of a dictionary.
m.get_frame_header(10)

get_frame_header(int i) gives you the Temika header information for the ith frame in the format of a dictionary.
To get the ith frame as a numpy array, use
m.get_frame(10)
You can then manipulate the frame, analyze it, save it as a .tiff or .png using PIL, or do whatever else you feel like!
A convenient method is m.frames(). This returns a generator for frames. It functions like the Python range function.
m.frames() #Generator for all frames in the movie
m.frames(100) #For the first 100 frames
m.frames(20, 100, 2) #For frames 20 to 100, in steps of 2
A few useful attributes are
m.filename
m.n_frames
m.header
'/home/crsid/data/super_cool_experiment.movie'

'Temika header describing what I did.'
