wjs-editing-multicam

Combine N synced camera angles into a single rendered MP4. Decisions are audio-energy-driven only — the cam with the loudest mic each second wins. Output is hard cuts (or hard cuts plus a corner PiP).

Setup & commands

The implementation lives in the open-source polysync pip package (https://pypi.org/project/polysync/ · https://github.com/jianshuo/polysync) — this skill no longer ships its own scripts. Install it, then drive it via its CLI:

python3 -m pip install -U polysync      # needs ffmpeg/ffprobe on PATH

polysync edit        CAM_A CAM_B CAM_C --out edl.json   # build the decision list
polysync render-cuts edl.json --out out.mp4             # hard cuts
polysync render-pip  edl.json --out out.mp4 --pip bottom-right   # cuts + corner inset

edit and the renderers read each input's .sync.json automatically. Sync first with wjs-syncing-multicam (polysync sync) if the sidecars don't exist yet.
