Detect video chapters

Add chapters to a video using ffmpeg automatic scene change detection
by BeatRig

This recipe adds chapters on scene changes. Chapters are a good indication of major moments in any edited video or raw source. FFmpeg has a great function for automatic scene change detection that scans for major visual changes in the video by a sensitivity ratio. In this recipe we combine this function with adding scene changes as chapter data to the file. Making any video files easier to skip through. Drag the recipe from the top onto magnetron.app to install it.
