[SUGGESTION] Intelligent scene cut detection for automated clip splitting

Open MarcoRavich opened this issue 5 years ago • 1 comments

It could be very useful - expecially for editors - to have an option for automated clip splitting based on scene cuts.

PySceneDetect can help to implement it:

PySceneDetect is a command-line application and a Python library for detecting scene changes in videos, and automatically splitting the video into separate clips. Not only is it free and open-source software (FOSS), but there are several detection methods available (see Features), from simple threshold-based fade in/out detection, to advanced content aware fast-cut detection of each shot.

Here are some of the things people are using PySceneDetect for:

  • splitting home videos or other source footage into individual scenes
  • automated detection and removal of commercials from PVR-saved video sources
  • processing and splitting surveillance camera footage
  • statistical analysis of videos to find suitable "loops" for looping GIFs/cinemagraphs
  • academic analysis of film and video (e.g. finding mean shot length)

Hope that inspires !
