I am looking for tools that you might have built to scratch an itch or quell a regular annoyance. My main motivation for asking is to looking a different things people may have built and a secondary motivation is to learn how they went about it. I'm also interested in tools which are small scripts or a bunch of commands piped into one another that have boosted your quality of life.
Thank you.
Then I fully scripted my video editing using Python+MoviePy [2]. The time savings are sweet. I just feed it my raw video and get the finished video a few minutes later. It cuts out all the dead air as well as the parts I don't want (which I indicate in-video).
In general scripting video editing is faster and more scalable compared to mousing around and making tiny cuts in a graphical video editor.
