video-merger

Concatenate a directory of numbered MP4 segments (1_*.mp4, 2_*.mp4, ...) into one MP4 with optional fade transitions, unified resolution/fps/codec. Pure ffmpeg wrapper, no LLM. Trigger when a workflow has produced several short clips that need stitching into a final reel.

video-merger — numbered-segment MP4 concatenator

Combines 1_*.mp4, 2_*.mp4, ... in numeric order into one MP4 (or multiple ~60s chunks), with optional fade transitions, codec/resolution/ fps normalisation.

Inputs (with:)

keyrequireddefaultnotes
input_diryesDirectory containing \d+_*.mp4 segments.
output_pathyes.mp4 path (full mode) or directory (chunk mode).
modenofullfull or chunk.
transitionno0.5Fade duration in seconds. 0 disables.
fpsno24Target frame rate.
crfno22x264 CRF (0-51, lower = better).
presetnomediumx264 preset.

For chunk mode, pass chunk_duration directly to the script — the meta engine entrypoint above does not template it; use a direct shell call when chunking is needed.

Dependencies

  • ffmpeg ≥ 5.0
  • ffprobe
  • Python 3.8+
  • No Python packages required beyond stdlib.

Install hints (or just run the bundled installer):

OSOne-liner installerManual
Windows (PowerShell)pwsh -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File install.ps1winget install Gyan.FFmpeg / choco install ffmpeg / scoop install ffmpeg
macOSbash install.shbrew install ffmpeg
Debian/Ubuntubash install.shsudo apt install ffmpeg

The Windows installer (install.ps1) defaults to winget but accepts $env:OPENSQUILLA_FFMPEG_INSTALLER="choco"|"scoop"|"skip" to switch backends. It prints the absolute ffmpeg/ffprobe paths after install so you can pass them to merge.py via --ffmpeg-path / --ffprobe-path when subprocess PATH inheritance is unreliable.

Filename ordering contract

The script picks files matching ^\d+_.*\.mp4$ and sorts by the leading integer. Producers must save segments as 1_shot.mp4, 2_shot.mp4, 3_shot.mp4, etc. The meta-short-drama workflow already follows this.

Output

Stdout: progress lines and the final output path. Non-zero exit on ffmpeg failure.

Failure modes

  • 未找到ffmpeg → install ffmpeg, ensure ffmpeg on PATH or pass --ffmpeg-path directly.
  • 未找到符合命名规则...的MP4文件 → ensure segments are \d+_*.mp4.
  • Mixed resolutions / fps: handled automatically when --resolution is set; otherwise ffmpeg preserves originals (no normalisation).
