Aura Farming Video to ASCII

Transform your aura farming videos into stunning ASCII art and watch them play in your terminal! This Python project converts video frames to ASCII characters, creating a unique retro-style video experience right in your command line.

Features

• Video to ASCII Conversion: Converts video files to ASCII art frames
• Enhanced Visual Quality: Auto-contrast, brightness adjustment, and edge detection
• Customizable Settings: Adjust width, height, FPS, and duration
• Smooth Playback: Optimized frame rate and terminal clearing
• Interactive Control: Press Ctrl+C to stop playback

Quick Start

Prerequisites

• Python 3.7 or higher
• pip (Python package installer)

Installation

1. Clone the repository

   git clone https://github.com/yourusername/aurafarming.git
   cd aurafarming

2. Install dependencies

   pip install -r requirements.txt

3. Add your video file

   • Place your video file in the project directory
   • Update the VIDEO_PATH variable in ascii.py to match your video filename
   • Or rename your video to 1751520327557.mp4

4. Run the Aura Farming ASCII video player

   python ascii.py

Configuration

You can customize the Aura Farming ASCII video player by modifying these variables in ascii.py:

VIDEO_PATH = "your_video.mp4"  # Path to your video file
WIDTH = 48                     # ASCII output width
HEIGHT = 42                    # ASCII output height
FPS = 10                       # Frames per second
MAX_DURATION = 12              # Maximum duration in seconds (set to None for full video)

How It Works

1. Frame Extraction: Uses OpenCV to read video frames
2. Image Processing:
   • Converts to grayscale
   • Applies auto-contrast enhancement
   • Adjusts brightness and contrast
   • Combines edge detection with sharpening
3. ASCII Conversion: Maps pixel brightness to ASCII characters
4. Terminal Display: Clears screen and displays each frame

Usage Examples

Basic Usage

python ascii.py

Custom Video

1. Edit ascii.py and change VIDEO_PATH = "your_video.mp4"
2. Run: python ascii.py

Adjust Settings

Modify the configuration variables for different effects:

• Lower WIDTH/HEIGHT for faster processing
