Hi,

when I use
ffprobe -show_frames INPUT
I get all frames.
But I only want some frames e.g. the first 10 or frame 100 to 109.

ffprobe doesn't seem to provide anything like -ss -t or -frames. So I assume it 
always probes the whole thing.

I would suggest you cut the desired frames you need for probing to a temporary 
snippet.

In Korn this would look like this:

#EXAMPLE VALUES

SOURCE="Source.mp4"

START="10.00" #for 25fps frame-precise with a 0.01 seconds resolution

FRAMES="10" # for cutting  ten frames beginning with the one at 10.00 seconds

PREVIEW="TEST.mp4"

# COMMANDS

ffmpeg -y -ss $START -i $SOURCE  -frames $FRAMES $PREVIEW # generate test clip

ffprobe -show_frames $PREVIEW                                                
#probing the preview

rm $PREVIEW #to tidy up

in Korn I can catenate these lines with "&&" to a single line, so that 
following commands only get executed if their predecessor(s) didn't fail.

Hope it's readable enough to translate it to your preferred coding language.

Thanks for your work!

After long seaching I've found the option "read_intervals", which does it.
