Why Does My Hit the Road Dude AI Video Feel Off? Measuring the "State?" Pause With ffmpeg silencedetect

Описание и применение

Скрипт на Python использует ffmpeg для измерения паузы в AI‑видео Hit the Road Dude, позволяя авторам убедиться, что пауза перед «State?» соответствует требованиям юмора.

Задача

AI-generated Hit the Road Dude clips often feel rushed because the pause before the "State?" line is too short or missing.

Результат

The script outputs a list of silence intervals and flags clips that lack the essential pause, turning a subjective judgment into a measurable metric.

Рабочий процесс

• 1. Run ffprobe to get clip duration.
• 2. Execute ffmpeg with silencedetect filter (noise threshold and minimum pause length).
• 3. Parse ffmpeg stderr for silence_start and silence_end timestamps.
• 4. Compare pause timing to expected range (≈0.6s).
• 5. Flag clips missing a pause or with too short a pause.
