Creates a video reader and decoder as a source. It allocates the resources and objects required to read and decode mp4 videos stored on the file systems. It accepts external sharding information to load a singe shard only.

Parameters
contextRocal context
source_pathA NULL terminated char string pointing to the location on the disk. source_path can be a video file, folder containing videos or a text file
color_formatThe color format the frames will be decoded to.
rocal_decode_deviceEnables software or hardware decoding. Currently only software decoding is supported.
shard_idShard id for this loader.
shard_countTotal shard count.
sequence_lengthThe number of frames in a sequence.
shuffleto shuffle sequences.
is_outputDetermines if the user wants the loaded sequence of frames to be part of the output or not.
looprepeat data loading.
stepFrame interval between each sequence.
strideFrame interval between frames in a sequence.
file_list_frame_numDetermines if the user wants to read frame number or timestamps if a text file is passed in the source_path.
