Created using Linux Bash scripting with supporting applications GIMP and PeakD/ChatGP AI to create the overlay/MODEL image. HIVE branding logo package provided by the blockchain.

Note the SlideShow template was created using kdenlive video editor. Bash ffmpeg can create this but it always produced a corrupt 1st frame which is unfortunate, hopefully this gets fixed in future versions (which is actually out but my version of MX Linux doesn't include this).



Subtitle/Audio Demonstartion


Bash Code Examples

Add Audio (ttsmaker.mp3) to video (myvid.mp4) and save as myaudio.mp4

ffmpeg -i "myvid.mp4" -i ttsmaker.mp3 -c:v copy -c:a aac -map 0:v:0 -map 1:a:0 "myaudio.mp4"

Add Sync'd subtitle file (ttsmaker.srt) to video myaudio.mp4 and save as mysubtitledvideo.mp4

ffmpeg -i "myaudio.mp4" -vf "subtitles=ttsmaker.srt:force_style='FontName=Caladea Bold,PrimaryColour=&H1659f8,FontSize=26'" "mysubtitledvideo.mp4"

Addition Useful Notes

Fontname= use the ones that came with your version of Linux (BASH fc-list)
PrimaryColour= Subtitle Font Colour HTML but backwards LoL --> BLUE = 0000FF so use &HFF0000

Subtitle Text File (.srt) - to left justify the subtitles on the video
go thru the text file and add "{\an1}" in front of each line of text.

00:00:02,880 --> 00:00:05,240
{\an1}that provides speech synthesis services,


Templates purposely created at 16:9 720p Resolution with the focus on the story telling aspect not the visual content. Add subtitles and audio with your favourite program/app (eg TTS Maker or VEED etc ) for your latest ebook/audio book project.

The Videos/SlideShow Images are all originals of my making, the Models/Characters??? have been created using an online AI Platform.

I actually went twice the distance on the ride but it rained which resulted in a blotchy video so couldn't really use the second part. I like the idea you can edit an existing chatgtp image and just change the outfit colour, nice. Shortly I'll create and upload an actual story that uses one of these templates.
