This is a shell script to split a video - for example for soccer - into multiple highlight clips based on a text file containing the start and end times.
The script generates a highlight video, as well as a video with all goals.
In order for this to work (only tested on OSX 10.15) you need to install ffmpeg, glew and glfw for example:
brew install glew glfw
brew install ffmpeg $(brew options ffmpeg | grep -vE '\s' | grep -- '--with-' | tr '\n' ' ')
First create an input file called input.txt with one line per clip to split / cut out of the larger video. The format is like:
filname.mov start-time length clip-filename.mov
filname.mov start-time length clip-filename.mov
filname.mov start-time length clip-filename.mov
An example would be:
IMG_9651.MOV 00:24 00:04 part_01_dribble.MOV
IMG_9651.MOV 01:57 00:06 part_02_goal.MOV
IMG_9651.MOV 09:12 00:05 part_03_shot.MOV
IMG_9651.MOV 10:20 00:06 part_04_dribble.MOV
IMG_9652.MOV 04:39 00:05 part_05_goal.MOV
IMG_9654.MOV 00:20 00:06 part_06_goal.MOV
IMG_9654.MOV 00:52 00:04 part_07_pass.MOV
IMG_9654.MOV 03:03 00:04 part_08_pass.MOV
IMG_9655.MOV 09:43 00:20 part_09_dribble.MOV
It is important to follow the naming convention for the clips!
- starts with "part"
- followed by "XX" - a number (preceeded by 0 if it is a single digit) so that when the files are sorted they are in the right order
- a keyword(s) which describes the clip, with "_" for spaces. The only relevant keyword is goal because those clips get added to a separate highlight video of just goals.
In the directory with the videos, and the input.txt:
./split.sh
