SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Turning hours of raw recordings into polished short-form videos requires tedious manual cutting, structuring, and reformatting across many tools. This Skill provides a layered pipeline that uses AI for organization and deterministic tools for execution, so long footage becomes publishable content faster. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Structured Editing Pipeline: Six layers from capture (Screen Studio) through organization (Claude/Codex), deterministic cuts (FFmpeg), programmable composition (Remotion), generated assets (ElevenLabs/fal.ai), and final polish (Descript/CapCut). - FFmpeg Automation: Batch cutting from edit decision lists, concatenation, proxy creation, audio normalization, scene detection, and silence-based auto-cutting. - Platform Reframing: Convert footage between 16:9, 9:16, and 1:1 aspect ratios for YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, and X using FFmpeg crops or VideoDB smart reframe. - Use Case: Given a 4-hour recording transcript, identify the 8 strongest segments for a 24-minute vlog, generate FFmpeg cut commands, add Remotion title overlays, and produce a vertical TikTok version. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to analyze your recording transcript and generate FFmpeg cut commands for the strongest segments of your video.

Frequently Asked Questions about video-editing

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I cut video segments with FFmpeg by timestamp?

Use ffmpeg -i raw.mp4 -ss 00:12:30 -to 00:15:45 -c copy segment.mp4 to extract a segment without re-encoding. For batch cuts, loop over a cuts.txt file containing start, end, and label values and run the same command per line.

How to convert 16:9 video to vertical 9:16 for TikTok?

Use FFmpeg with a center crop filter: ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -vf "crop=ih*9/16:ih,scale=1080:1920" vertical.mp4. For subject-aware reframing, VideoDB offers a smart reframe mode that tracks the subject automatically.

What is Remotion used for in video editing?

Remotion handles programmable composition: text overlays, lower thirds, data visualizations, transitions, and reusable scene templates written as React components. Render compositions to MP4 with npx remotion render.

Can FFmpeg detect silence to auto-cut dead air?

Yes, run ffmpeg with the silencedetect filter, for example -af silencedetect=noise=-30dB:d=2, and parse the logged silence intervals. Use those timestamps to build cut commands that remove dead sections.

When should I not use AI generation in video editing?

This workflow is for editing real footage, not generating videos from prompts. Use ElevenLabs or fal.ai only for assets that do not exist, such as voiceover, background music, or thumbnails, and keep generation out of the core edit.
