Automation of Video Editing

Open alsab200 opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

Hi David, Thank you for making such a great plugin; very helpful specifically in post-production ..

Actually, people go out of their way to achieve this. There is one guy on YouTube, adds an extra audio track; records some noise on it; in order to mark the the file for editing later..

I use your plugin, to mark multi-camera "Scene switching". Will also use it for cutting highlights. (FYI, I confirm your plugin works with OBS 29.02)

But I believe this scene switching and changing camera selection can be automated.

To change the scene during recording in OBS, I hit pre-assigned hot keys in OBS, for example 1,3,1 for scene(camera)-1, scene(camera)-3 and scene(camera)-1 again..

If your plugin, as an option, writes the above key sequence, as chapter names; then one can edit the file even from the command line, to make the the camera switches in editing the video..

So, in our example, the chapters might be 1 - 1, 2 - 3, 3 -1 (meaning Chap1 - Scene1, Chap2 - Scene3, Chap3 - Scene1)

This would be really great.

Can you pls. help on this? Thank you for your time, and this great plugin..
