auto-editor VS vidgear

A few days ago I discovered a program that automatically trims the pauses from your video. This can decrease my raw footage duration by around 25%. I've used this for editing two videos so far, and this has been such a helpful tool.

Looking at the GitHub of auto-editor , I see it has a options page, and not being familiar with this app, I can see it has a pretty good display options.

auto-editor — removing silent portions from video recordings

auto-editor – Auto-Editor: Effort free video editing

Auto-Editor <--Is a command line application.

auto-editor can edit parts out based on motion and noise thresholds. I haven't found any settings I'm happy with though.

For those of us on Linux, check out https://github.com/WyattBlue/auto-editor: "Auto-Editor is a command line application for automatically editing video and audio by analyzing a variety of methods, most notably audio loudness."

However I have compiled it into a Windows binary which you can find here.Also a video I posted on using it is here.He also has a website for it here, from which you can also find a GUI version for Windows and Mac for a "donation" of $35 or more.

My experience that played out over the last few weeks lead me to a similar belief, somewhat. For rather uninteresting reasons I decided I wanted to create mp4 videos of an animation programmatically, from scratch.

The first solution suggested when googling around is to just create all the frames, save them to disk, and then let ffmpeg do its thing from there. I would have just gone with that for a one-off task, but it seems like a pretty bad solution if the video is long, or high res, or both. Plus, what I really wanted was to build something more "scalable/flexible".

Maybe I didn't know the right keywords to search for, but there really didn't seem to be many options for creating frames, piping them straight to an encoder, and writing just the final video file to disk. The only one I found that seemed like it could maybe do it the way I had in mind was VidGear[1] (Python). I had figured that with the popularity of streaming, and video in general on the web, there would be so much more tooling for these sorts of things.

I ended up digging way deeper into this than I had intended, and built myself something on top of Membrane[2] (Elixir)

I've been googling and reading for a while but I'm very unsure about which tools I need, which tools will help me achieve what I want the easiest way. What about (pylivestream)[https://pypi.org/project/pylivestream/] for example? Will this do the job for me? What about a lower level approach including (pyopencv)[https://pypi.org/project/opencv-python/]? What about a higher level approach using (vidgear)[https://github.com/abhiTronix/vidgear], which seems promising but I don't feel confident in assessing if it's the tool I really need?

Vidgear and new deffcode library are my best. I bet you don't know none of them. But they're pretty awesome when it comes to video-processing and stuff.

Yes, fortunately I already resolved it in my previous(popular) library called vidgearthrough its WriteGear API: https://abhitronix.github.io/vidgear/latest/gears/writegear/compression/overview/
