Hi

I'm trying to export a bag file to jpegs by running:

roslaunch export.launch

where

export.launch:

<launch>
  <node pkg="rosbag" type="play" name="rosbag" required="true" args="/path/catkin_ws/test.bag"/>
  <node name="extract" pkg="image_view" type="extract_images" respawn="false" required="true" output="screen" cwd="ROS_HOME">
    <remap from="image" to="/camera/rgb/image_raw"/>
  </node>
</launch>

The bag is 2s long (60 messages), but I get the following message after frame0015.jpg is saved:

REQUIRED process [rosbag-2] has died!
process has finished cleanly
log file: /path/.ros/log/2723c992-cb16-11e9-8dca-001c42b1c2c9/rosbag-2*.log
Initiating shutdown!

I'd expect 60 images to be exported as 60 messages were captured. Does anyone know why rosbag crashes as described?

Here's a more complete output:

Are you sure it's not simply reaching the end of the bag file and shutting down?

@PeteBlackerThe3rd How do I tell? Shouldn't 60 images be expected if 60 messages were captured?

I think you're right! I've set sec_per_frame to 0.03 and I'm getting almost all of the frames. Thanks.

Great. Glad you've got this working.

If you look at the documentation here extract_images defaults to 10 frames per second, you can see that on your terminal too. If the images in your bag file are higher frame rate than this then some of them will be dropped.

Your bag file has 60 frames in 2.1 seconds so is approximately 30 frames per second. Add in the startup delay and the 15 images you're getting sounds about right.
