Audio to Music Video

Single-pass ffmpeg synthesis of a music video from an audio file plus a chosen template. The audio is pristine (stream-copied where the container allows) and the visual is built entirely with ffmpeg's -filter_complex graph — no external editor needed.

Templates

Templates are stored in preferences.json under audio_to_video_templates and selected by name. Each template defines: visualizer type, layout, colour palette, optional cover-art treatment, and resolution. Built-in defaults ship in this skill's prose; users add their own via onboard or by editing preferences.json directly.
