Command-line toolkit for transcoding, cutting, joining, frame extraction and streaming of audio and video, including ffmpeg, ffprobe and ffplay. A core dependency for agents handling media. The GitHub repo is the official mirror.

Open-source zero-shot TTS via f5-tts_infer-cli: from a few seconds of reference audio it reads Chinese or English text in the same voice, handy for lessons and videos. Needs Python, PyTorch and FFmpeg, ideally a GPU. Pretrained models are non-commercial; get consent before cloning a voice.

Detects shot changes in video and splits long footage into scenes, exporting cut lists and per-scene thumbnails, useful for shot analysis, organizing footage and finding edit points. Runs locally; needs Python 3.10+, plus FFmpeg or mkvmerge for splitting.
