This is all run from my mac for convenience, but you could also run just the commands "sudu su." from the EC2 command line. I used: Amazon Linux AMI 2015.03.1 (HVM), SSD Volume Type - ami-0d4cfd66 Step #1: Create an EC2 Instance at Amazon Web Services

This is how I process a simple contact sheet using AWS EC2, from my mac. png is too big - and change the filename to one of your choice !) H 200 -a 300/200 (sets size and aspect so file is not too big - seems you have to do both) c sets number of columns (here it's 3 columns) i 1m (sets the capture time interval in mins - in this case it's every minute - you could also use -n instead which sets the number of captures for example -n 21 will create 21 images, but don't use both) U0 (no name in footer - or else it displays the host name - note this is zero not the letter O) Usage: vcs input-filename -U0 -i 1m -c 3 -H 200 -a 300/200 -o save-filename.jpgĮdit input-filname to the name of your video file! You will need to have either ffmpeg or mplayer installed on your system. Any video supported by mplayer and ffmpeg can be used by this script. ''It is a bash script meant to create video contact sheets (previews) aka thumbnails or previews of videos. Its a lot easier to use even easier than a GUI I like using an easy to use unix command line bash script called VCS - Video Contact Sheet.
