Video input
- Category: Media input
What it is
Pick a video file from your computer for recognition, pause removal, audio / frame extraction or importing onto a video track. For clips already on the timeline, "Get video" is the better choice.
This node grew out of the related Lab tools: wires in a blueprint replace the step-by-step clicks in the Lab, which makes it easy to reuse and to hand to an agent.
