A tool for removing silences from a video
This tool is made to just work!
However, at the moment, it's a quick-write. Please report bugs, if you found some.
Dependencies
- python3
- ffmpeg
- ffprobe
You need to have all of those installed.
@Windows users:
Make sure, that the path to ffmpeg and ffprobe are inside the "path variable". I.e. you can run both commands from the command line like C:> ffmpeg.

File them directly here on Github. I'll try to fix them as soon as possible.
Comparison to other tools
As far as my reseach goes, all other tools suck:
- They don't work
- They have huge dependencies
- They have complex dependencies
- Their dependencies don't work
- They store each frame of the video as bitmap file
(how can you even think about something like that)
