Beta release of PySceneDetect v0.5 with significantly refactored API and CLI. Users are encouraged to upgrade to the v0.5-beta as soon as possible. The release of v0.5 will break existing scripts/programs; both the command-line interface and Python API have changed significantly to support future development.
Try scenedetect help or scenedetect help all to get started. See the updated README.md for updated quickstart information.
When the final version of v0.5 is released, beta users can upgrade seamlessly. The final release distribution of PySceneDetect v0.5 will be made available some time this month, including source/binary distributions.
This is a source-only distribution, and can only be run locally via the scenedetect.py script. To install the beta, download v0.5-beta-1 or newer (via setup.py install - the version will show up as v0.5-dev). Requires ffmpeg or mkvmerge to enable support for the split-video command.
Includes unit tests using pytest (to run, type pytest -v).
