# Video Cover MCP A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for adding cover images (real first frames) and fade transitions to videos. ## Features - **Add Cover Image**: Prepend a static image as real first frames (re-encodes video stream) - **Fade Transitions**: Add fade-in and fade-out effects to videos ## Installation Install via uvx (recommended): ```bash uvx video-cover-mcp ``` Or install via pip: ```bash pip install video-cover-mcp ``` ## Usage Run the MCP server: ```bash video-cover-mcp ``` ## Requirements - Python >=3.12 - FFmpeg installed on your system ## Tools Available ### `add_cover_image` Prepend a cover image as real first frames at the beginning of the video. **Parameters:** - `video_path`: Input video file path - `cover_image_path`: Cover image file path (supports PNG, JPG, etc.) - `output_video_path`: Output video file path - `cover_duration`: Duration to display the cover image in seconds (default: 3.0) - `fade_duration`: Deprecated (kept for compatibility) Note: If `output_video_path` is not provided, output defaults to an `.mp4` file for better compatibility. **Example:** ```python add_cover_image( video_path="/path/to/input.mp4", cover_image_path="/path/to/cover.jpg", output_video_path="/path/to/output.mp4", cover_duration=5.0, fade_duration=1.0 ) ``` ### `add_basic_transitions` Add fade-in or fade-out transition effects to a video. **Parameters:** - `video_path`: Input video file path - `output_video_path`: Output video file path - `transition_type`: Transition type - 'fade_in' or 'fade_out' - `duration_seconds`: Transition duration in seconds (must be positive) **Example:** ```python add_basic_transitions( video_path="/path/to/input.mp4", output_video_path="/path/to/output.mp4", transition_type="fade_in", duration_seconds=2.0 ) ``` ## License MIT License
