Show HN: Eddie – A Smart Video Editor with Python [Seeking Feedback]

8 pointsby zoe_dkalmost 2 years ago
Eddie the Smart Video Editor is a Python script that automates the process of editing videos based on specific code-words you say while recording the video.<p>It takes a video file, converts it into an audio file, transcribes the audio to text using OpenAI&#x27;s Whisper API and identifies segments between specified code-words. It then cuts out these segments from the original video, removes any silence and produces a new edited video file ready for the final touches. False recording starts are also okay as it only matches the last occurrence of the &#x27;start&#x27; code-word when the next code-word is the &#x27;end&#x27; code-word.<p>I wanted to jump into the far deepest of deep ends and ask for feedback please.<p>I am kind of scared of you all tbh but I value learning more than crapping my pants.<p>Thank you.

Interesting project, but why not cut&#x2F;edit segment via UI? Another option is to display the transcribed text, allow the users to delete the text (words or a sentence). Get the get cut out times based on the deleted text.
