# Video Trimming

Trim, cut, and split videos using each::sense. This skill enables precise video editing operations including segment extraction, scene detection, silence removal, and batch processing for social media optimization.

## Features

- **Precise Trimming**: Cut videos to exact timestamps or durations
- **Segment Extraction**: Extract specific portions from the middle of videos
- **Intro/Outro Removal**: Clean up videos by removing unwanted beginnings or endings
- **Video Splitting**: Divide long videos into multiple shorter clips
- **Highlight Extraction**: Pull out key moments from longer content
- **Silence Removal**: Automatically detect and remove dead air or silent portions
- **Scene Detection**: Smart cuts based on visual scene changes
- **Social Media Optimization**: Trim to platform-specific lengths (15s, 30s, 60s)
- **Loop-Friendly Edits**: Create seamless loops for social media
- **Batch Processing**: Process multiple videos with consistent trimming rules

## Quick Start
