### Capturing images from YouTube videos without downloading Video using Python's VidGear Module
## pip install vidgear

    cv2.imwrite(name, frame)
    currentframe += 5  ##chnage 5 with the number of frames. Here 5 means capture frame after every 5 frames
    ###usually videos are 30fps so if here 30 is provided a frame will be captures after every second.
