Video in Blender 5.2 - Video Sequencer edits from Python (clips, image sequences, crossfades, titles, music fades, proxies, color management, H.264/AAC output) and motion tracking (feature detection, camera solve, scene orientation, tripod and plane tracking, stabilization) for VFX shots. Use to cut renders/footage together or match-move a camera.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Video editing and tracking

The execution model is in `blender-core`. Rendering the 3D shots and the compositor (5.0 API) are in `blender-rendering`.

## One call each
```
scripts/vse_edit.py -- --clips //renders/sh010/ //renders/sh020/ //logo.png --crossfade 12 --title "Project" --audio //music.wav --out //edit.mp4 --render
scripts/vse_edit.py -- --clips a.mp4 b.mp4 c.mp4 --crossfade 0 --fps 24 --out //review/f_#### --render   # hard cuts to PNG
```
```python
import track_camera; print(track_camera.run(clip="C:/shots/sh010.mp4", focal=35, sensor=36))  # live/MCP only
```

## vse_edit.py
- Builds into its own `Edit` scene (`--scene`), so 3D scenes stay untouched. Clips go on alternating channels 1/2, crossfades (`CROSS`) on 3, the title on 4, clip audio on 6/7 (movies get their sound strip), and music on 8 (trimmed to the edit with a `--audio-fade` volume fade-out).
- A clip may be a movie, a still (`--still-seconds`), a folder of frames, or a `####` pattern. Each crossfade overlaps the previous clip by `--crossfade` frames, so the edit gets shorter by that much per cut. Re-running replaces the previous edit.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add el4cteo/blender-skills/blender-video-editing@sha256:aa38ffc02ade80b6

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.2.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
