FAQPage Schema
How do I sync multiple video sources using audio alignment?

You can sync multiple video sources by running the 'polysync sync' command to align a source file to a reference file. This Skill uses audio cross-correlation to match multiple camera and audio recordings to a common timeline without re-encoding.

How does multi-camera synchronization work without re-encoding video files?

Multi-camera synchronization without re-encoding works by generating lightweight .sync.json files instead of altering original media. These files contain the alignment data needed to map video and audio sources to a shared timeline during multi-camera editing.

Can I use ffmpeg for multi-camera editing with partial audio coverage?

Yes, you can use ffmpeg for multi-camera editing with partial audio coverage. The Skill supports partial coverage synchronization and is compatible with ffmpeg for consuming the generated alignment data.

Do I need polysync to align separate audio recordings with video?

Yes, you need polysync to align separate audio recordings with video. The Skill depends on the polysync command-line interface to execute the audio cross-correlation process and generate the necessary synchronization files.

What's the best way to align video and audio recordings from different devices?

The best way to align recordings from different devices is using audio cross-correlation to find a common timeline. By designating a reference file and matching source files against it, you can accurately sync multi-camera setups.
