%----------------------------------------------------------------------
% function [A,ObjectOut]=read_image(FileName,FileType,VideoObject,num)
%
% OUTPUT:
% A(npy,npx,rgb): matrix of integers (iunt8 or uint16) representing the image, with sizes npy, npx, and possibly color component rgb=1:3
% ObjectOut: video object (=[] for single images)
%
% INPUT:
% FileName: input file name
%                 other inputs needed  only for video and multi-image file:
% FileType: input file type, as determined by the function get_file_info.m
% VideoObject: video object (for faster reading if availlable)
% num: frame index for movies or multimage types
