The R7 can't shoot RAW video (unless you wrote a FW hack), so you probably shot in Canon Log? You need to color grade the file using a compatible LUT in Final Cut, Resolve, Premiere, etc. Canon has LUT on their website but many are available from third parties. Once you've color graded the video, you can pull stills off it if you wish.
Yeah, raw video works a little differently than raw stills. It isn’t something you can just batch convert into JPEGs the same way. What you’ll need to do is bring those raw clips into Canon’s Cinema RAW Development software, or a video editor like DaVinci Resolve. Once the footage is loaded up, you can scrub through and export individual frames as JPEGs.
It’s a couple of extra steps compared to what you’re used to, but once you’ve got the files in there it’s pretty straightforward. Basically, you’re treating the video more like a moving raw image sequence, and just pulling stills from the frames you want. That way you still keep the flexibility of raw for grading, while being able to spit out JPEGs whenever you need them.

OK, some how in setting things on the menu, I inadvertently told the R7 to record video in raw.
I now have raw video files.
I've done a million clicks in stills, but I have an hour or so in videe, and all done as jpegs. I've never had this predicament before.
How do I convert the raw video files to jpgs?
I think you may have accidentally turned on the can log sessiongs.
To remove this to, turn on the camera and put it in the video mode
then go into page 3 on first tag (red) and turn off the canon log setteings off
