What Does It Do?

This script can take up to 3 video files, combine the clips sequentially and position a logo in the lower right corner of the screen for the primary input video. It also applies a short fade in and out on all the video clips.

Simple usage

This is designed to be simple to use at the outset but still has room to customize if desired. If you organize your recordings similar to me, you have a directory for each series and the videos sit there with a sequential name. This script can be used very simply with such an arrangement.

• Place a copy of process.py in the directory with your videos.
• Copy your logo into the directory and name it logo.png
• Copy intro (at the beginning) and outro (at the end) videos into the directory and name them intro.mp4 and outro.mp4.
• With a File Explorer window, drag and drop a video file onto process.py.
• Dropped file is processed, and outputted in the same directory with output appended to the name.

Advanced Usage

Quite a few command line options to exploit to tweak the output.
