bpm2fps

bpm2fps is a command-line tool for Linux that calculates the frame timing required to synchronize animations with a specific musical tempo. By inputting the beats per minute (BPM) of a track and the desired frame rate of the animation, the software outputs the exact frame intervals needed to align visual events with the audio rhythm. This utility is intended for animators and video editors who need to ensure that motion graphics or frame-by-frame sequences match the timing of a musical composition.

The application processes numerical inputs to generate precise timing data, which can then be applied within various animation software suites. It is licensed under the MIT license and functions as a specialized calculator for rhythmic synchronization. Because it is a terminal-based tool, it does not provide a graphical interface for previewing animations, focusing strictly on the mathematical conversion of musical tempo into frame-based timelines.
