yt_clipper v5.6.0 [2022.01.23]

Clipper Changes

• Add preprocess_hevc utility script that quickly processes hevc video files so they are compatible.
  • This utility script should only be necessary with some hevc input videos.
  • If you see errors like Invalid data found when processing input from ffmpeg try this utility script.
• Fix corruption/artifacting of av1 video inputs with video stabilization enabled.
  • This required removing a sharpening filter intended to reduce blur introduced by video stabilization.
• Fix failure to merge clips with single quotes in file path.
• Update youtube_dl dependency from v2021.06.06 to v2021.12.17.
• Update ffmpeg dependency from v4.4.1 to v5.0.

Documentation Changes

• Add section on utility scripts that work without yt_clipper. For example, the merge utility script for merging input videos with ffmpeg.
  • Previously, utility scripts were grouped with helper scripts.
  • To add distinction between helper scripts that wrap yt_clipper and these other scripts, the term utility script was introduced.
