Hello!  I'm hunting for a ffmpeg expert to help me through an AV processing (Python) pipeline.

I'm willing to pay a competitive hourly rate for consultancy (open to suggestions -- I'm working for a well funded start-up). The initial task doesn't require many hours. The important thing for me is to get it done soon.

The basic task is:
- to receive a video track and an audio track
- to insert a certain length of black at the start of the video track
- if the audio is longer, to freeze the last frame of the video track until the audio has completed
- to insert content into the audio track
- to merge the audio track into the video track

There are a couple of complications:
- sometimes we receive just a video track, in which case we have to split off the audio Stream and use that
- the content is ultrasonic, so it's important this information is not lost (I believe we can use .aac with .mp4)

Initially I outsourced the task. I have a Python script that works. But it is slow, cumbersome, ugly.

I've rewritten it cleanly.  But I suspect ffmpeg is still not being used right.

I'm looking for someone who is familiar with the API to review the ffmpeg calls.

Also I've found https://github.com/kkroening/ffmpeg-python

It might be nice to use that!

Please send me a PM, or email pi!pipad!org if this sounds of interest.
