22w22a

New Features

• Upgrade ffmpeg to 5.0.1 and use stable ffprobe to get info about media
• Add vp9 encoders and decoders to ffmpeg
• Upgrade pillow, don't install yt-dlp by default
• Add --frame-rate option, which allows you to change the output media's fps

Breaking Changes

• With the exception of clip-sequence, Auto-Editor will now make one, and only one, output media file.
• --combine-files is now implicit. Every input file will be combined into one file. This has been implemented for audio files, however, video and subtitle files get Error! Timeline too complex because I haven't gotten around to implementing NLE in those methods yet.

22w13a

New Features:

• Add ability to specify attributes for individual edit methods in the --edit option.
  • One example is --edit audio:threshold=0.03 or audio:stream=1:threshold=0.07
  • See auto-editor --edit --help For all the attributes each edit method has
• Add new editing method pixeldiff
  • pixeldiff marks sections as loud whenever the number of pixels is changed by a certain amount. You can set that amount by settings pixeldiff's threshold attribute. --edit pixeldiff:threshold=30 where 30 is the minimum amount of pixels that needs to be changed in between frames.

Bug Fixes:

• Fix Crash when description has invalid unicode characters (Issue #252)

Breaking Changes:

• --motion-threshold, --md-width, and --md-blur have been removed in favor of the new syntax:
  --edit motion:threshold=2%,width=900,blur=9

Dependencies:

Full Changelog: 22w12a...22w13a

Update April 5, 2022

--export premiere has a regression which causes Premiere Pro to output: The Importer reported a generic error. This is because samplerate is incorrectly set to None.

22w12a or a future version can be used instead.

22w12a

New Features

• New --extras option allows users to directly pass options to ffmpeg

Bug Fixes

• Fixed de-syncing issue with exporting Premiere Pro XML. (Issue #234)
• Patch for Final Cut Pro with should fix de-syncing (Issue #245, needs confirmation)
• Fixed a non-fatal crash discussed in Issue #246

Breaking Changes

• The --tune, --preset and --constant-rate-factor have been removed in favor in passing those options directly to ffmpeg via --extras
  The removal is due to the fact that different encoders have different values that they accept and auto-editor can't precompute what those values can be.

Full Changelog: 22w11a...22w12a
