Video Editor

Video editing tool using ffmpeg. The tool has the ability to cut as many unnecessary video frames as specified in a YAML file.

Dependencies

How To

1. Ensure the ffmpeg package is installed. Use brew install ffmpeg to install on MacOSX.
2. Create a YAML file with frames to either select or delete. Here is a sample YAML: myrecording.yaml

---
input: "input-video.mp4"
output: "output-video.mp4"
cut_method: select  # use 'delete' to remove unwanted frames
timeframe:
  - from: start   # first frame
    to: 4m
  - from: 10m11s  # selected frames
    to: 15m50s
  - from: 30m5s   # selected frames
    to: end       # last frame

3. Execute the following command: video-cut -p myrecording.yaml where, -p is the YAML with editing instruction.
4. You should now get the output-video.mp4 video file after the process is over.
