Remove segments of duration less than a number of seconds

[sharno]

Can you add a feature that removes segments that have a duration that's less than a number of seconds?

example command:

auto-editor video.mkv --edit audio:0.05 --drop-segment-dur 0.8sec

which would remove the segments that have the audio less than threshold of 5% and drop the segments that are less than 0.8 seconds in duration

If it's helpful the feature is here too: https://videosilenceremover.web.app/

You can use:

auto-editor video.mkv --edit "(minclip audio:0.5 0.8sec)"

Thank you!

This is impressive, didn't think about using Palet at all for that! Would be great if you can add some of these examples in the Readme

Does this work with exporting? seems that I get an empty Resolve timeline when I use minclip the way you mentioned

[WyattBlue]

The edits stay the same regardless of what export method you choose.

For DaVinci Resolve, you import with "File > Import > Timeline"

Yep, that's indeed how it works but trying out this exact command:

auto-editor.exe ".\2024-05-15 21-19-54.mkv" --edit "(minclip audio:0.5 0.8sec)" --export resolve

gave me a 1KB FCPXML file (just an empty timeline when I import it in Resolve)

while

auto-editor.exe ".\2024-05-15 21-19-54.mkv" --edit audio:0.05 --export resolve

works (167KB FCPXML file)

Edit: discard my previous message, it wasn't correct.

It looks like you accidentally typed 0.5 instead of 0.05.
