Link to docs are broken?

Hiya - ah - yes maybe - the links do work on the github pages - perhaps we need to use fully-qualified links so that they work on PyPI. Thanks for pointing this out.

Just wanted to thank you for this awesome software.

I use the Docker Container on Windows 11, Docker Desktop on WSL2 and has a Hero 8. Takes 2-3 min to process a 3.9GB (2.7k/60fps) GoPro Video.

Hi! Thanks for all the hard work on this! I was looking around for a while for a way to do this.

My video was filmed upside down, so the overlay is placed upside down on top of the video. I used this hack in ffmpeg.py to solve my issue, as the ffmpeg options would not work for me:

"-filter_complex", f"[0:v]hflip,vflip [bg];[bg][1:v]overlay{filter_extra}",

It flips the video upside down before adding the overlay. The orientation is somehow still in the metadata so it plays back normally in windows media player.

Is an option in the works for this issue? Thanks so much again!

Thanks for this. If the entire video is filmed upside down, you usually don't have to do anything...my gopro was mounted upside down for ages. I think perhaps there might be a case where the recording starts the right way up, then camera is immediately turned upside down?
Thanks for this info though - very useful!
