I'm trying to import frames from a video with the extension .avi, using this piece of Mathematica code:
Import["video.AVI", {"Frames", {5, 6}}]
But I get this error:
Cannot import data as videoformat.
What is the problem?

$\begingroup$ Have you tried: Import["video.AVI"] Import["video.AVI" ,"AVI"] What messages do you get? $\endgroup$– SearkeApr 4, 2016 at 15:47

$\begingroup$ @Searke Yes I did and I get an array of indices indicating each frame. $\endgroup$– fafApr 4, 2016 at 15:52

1$\begingroup$ faf, If you are willing to go through the extra effort to install ffmpeg, then this package looks perfectly suited to the problem. $\endgroup$– Jason B.Apr 6, 2016 at 8:07

I checked it with 64-bit OS and it worked. Apparently It only work in 64-bit version of windows (7).
