I have hundreds of hours of VHS video taken with first-generation VHS recorders. Each time the camera was started, the AGC on the audio would take about six frames to come up to normal, and the video would rainbow (no flying erase heads).
I can capture this video, using SCLive's optical scene detection, into separate video files. What I would like to do is use a script to select and delete the first n frames of each event (where n will usually be 5 or 6) in order to get beyond the audio and video glitching. Since the optical scene detection is not perfect, some "scenes" aren't really new scenes. Therefore, I have to look at each scene and then decide whether to run this script. Thus, the script doesn't need to find the next event; it merely needs to select a few frames and then delete them.
Is there such a script, or does anyone know of a script that includes frame selection and deletion? It is within my abilities to modify such a script, but I just don't have the time to start from scratch given the large number of API calls that I'd have to wade through, and the syntax I'd have to master.
Thanks!
