1. Stabilize footage
2. Cut out silent moments from clips with dialog.
3. I have spikes in audio from handling the camera. These are very distinctive spikes. Some automated way of getting rid of these audio peaks or lowering their volume.
I just want to throw the clips in a folder, and pre process them in the background, before I add them to a final cut project.
I've always thought "from lib import star" is somewhat of a anti-pattern. Personally I think that makes sense - because sometimes when I read code, I just have no idea where something comes from. But I've seen import star everywhere, couple of examples: Doc for this product FastAI's course Bing ads code base So I'm guessing it is more of accepted than I expected? What does HackerNews think?
Side question: how do you prevent import statements from being imported by "from lib import star"? (Without explicitly mentioning all the stuff that is not import statements). For example, this is mymod.py: import numpy as np def f(x): return 2*x And here it is imported: from mymod import * f(10) # Works as expected. np.sum([10, 20]) # Works, but shouldn't work.
import numpy as _np # numpy will be hidden
def f(x): return x * 2
def _g(x): return _np.array([x, x]) # _g is a non-public functionWhat are some good / mature / performant libraries to programmatically achieve compositions of text, audio and image files, perhaps with a timeline in which these can be declared at various timestamps, and the output is a video file? Does this one do it?

Here's my take: Don't use "import-star" in library code. Like you say, it obscures where elements of the namespace came from. When using Python interactively, esp. if the interactive session is to be thrown away at the end, then import-star can be fine and can be a good time-saver. Video editing is a great example of when this is appropriate. See also manim. Other examples might be one-off html parsing or one-off dat…

Just curious, what is your use case? I had to do some stuff like this for a school project a while ago, wrangled with ffmpeg whilst cursing under my breathe. Curious what other people do this for
The use-case is mostly audio conversations converted to video with the relevant speaker's face shown prominently, based on timestamp data.
If you're interested in high performance video processing with Python and want something more than just a fancy ffmpeg wrapper, then I can highly recommend checking out Vapoursynth: https://www.vapoursynth.com/ It's been around for ~9 years and has a relatively large community around it, most visibly found on the Doom9 forums: http://forum.doom9.org/forumdisplay.php?f=82 I'm personally still mostly using Avisynth the…
