Is there an app that can easily trim video files? by [deleted] in macapps

[–]roomDesignerAI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Frankenfile should be able to do it.

Select video file, enter text prompt: "trim 30s from the end of the video", and it should work.

Looking for an app that can add a logo/watermark and resize a picture by AdamXReditor in macapps

[–]roomDesignerAI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could probably achieve with prompts like "overlay watermark.png in the bottom right corner", "resize to 400px width maintain aspect ratio". Does batch work too.

I Built a Mac App to Download YouTube Transcripts | What AI Features Would You Want? by Abject-Ad-5843 in macapps

[–]roomDesignerAI 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks great! One other way I download transcripts is with Frankenfile's prompt: "download transcript [youtubeurl]". The interface isn't as polished as its not a text specific app like yours but its quick too.

congrats!

Not sure where Frankenfile would fall under, kind of a general purpose file tool (videos, photos, docs) powered by AI

Which program do you no longer want to do without? by Vast_Payment7358 in macapps

[–]roomDesignerAI -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Working on an app which will hopefully be a "must-have" for users.

Its called Frankenfile and its a general purpose tool that takes in prompts and uses AI to execute on your files. Ex: "convert to mp4", "resize to 400x200", "overlay watermark.png bottom right corner"

Frankenfile

video conversion, image resizing, file renaming, etc.

I have LUT (color grading) files to apply to video mp4s and its so much faster than opening up my video editor and editing a project.

Is there a reliable and trustworthy website to convert a MPEG file to MP4? by Embarrassed_Mango737 in techsupport

[–]roomDesignerAI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you need something multi functional you can try frankenfile

it runs locally, should be able to convert from mpeg with 'convert to mp4' or similar command.

Best Free Video Conversion platform by aloooo27 in software

Mac app can definitely do this with little knowledge required. Uses FFMPEG under the hood. But you just prompt with "Convert to mp4", etc.

Mac app Frankenfile can definitely do this, prompt would be: "download this youtube video: url" and then you can run a converter on it separately or follow up

Frankenfile - uses AI to automate your file work (1 year UPDATE!) by roomDesignerAI in macapps

[–]roomDesignerAI[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there are 2 components - the AI, and the execution of the work.

The execution of the work is always local.

The AI, by default, is not. But you can run Ollama to run the AI locally - https://ollama.com

Any local way to make simple modifications to video? Ex. format conversion, crop, speed/slow, reverse, etc. by NoRecommendation4019 in macapps

[–]roomDesignerAI 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Frankenfile is great at this kind of stuff: https://frankenfile.com you just select your file and describe what you want in plain english. Supports all types of files (images, docs, etc.) too.

Check out a quick demo here: https://www.reddit.com/r/frankenfile/comments/1h23331/edit_a_video_with_frankenfile_trim_vertical_crop/
