Description
Detect scene boundaries in video with adjustable sensitivity using GPU-accelerated analysis.
How to Use
1
1. Provide a publicly accessible video URL.
2
2. Adjust the `threshold` sensitivity (10.0 to 90.0). Default is `30.0` — lower = more scenes detected.
About This Tool
Detect scene boundaries in video using GPU-accelerated analysis. Returns timestamp ranges for each detected scene, making it easy to create chapters or split videos at natural cut points.
Adjust the `threshold` parameter to control sensitivity: lower values detect more subtle changes, higher values only catch major transitions.
