# Syntax: VideoWriter_fourcc(c1, c2, c3, c4) # Concatenates 4 chars to a fourcc code
#  cv2.VideoWriter_fourcc('M','J','P','G') or cv2.VideoWriter_fourcc(*'MJPG)

fourcc = cv2.VideoWriter_fourcc(*'MP42') # FourCC is a 4-byte code used to specify the video codec.
# A video codec is software or hardware that compresses and decompresses digital video. 
# In the context of video compression, codec is a portmanteau of encoder and decoder, 
# while a device that only compresses is typically called an encoder, and one that only 
# decompresses is a decoder. Source - Wikipedia
