I added structural image similarity to SBBP , so that screenshots from the video that are too similar to the previous one are automatically dropped out. This makes the viewing experience much better since you only see a new image when something has really changed since the previous one.

Calculating Structural Similarity of Images

Turns out scikit-image in Python makes this really easy.

import cv2
from skimage import structured_similarity as ssim
img1 = cv2.imread(sys.argv[1])
img2 = cv2.imread(sys.argv[2])
sim = ssim(img1, img2, channel_axis=2)
