# Video Composition

Combines multiple videos/images into a single video with optional background audio using AI-powered processing.

## When to Use

Use this skill when:

- Merging multiple video clips into one
- Creating a slideshow from multiple images
- Adding background music to a video
- Combining videos with audio tracks
- Stitching together video segments

## Workflow

### Step 1: Collect Media

Gather all media URLs from user:

- Video files (MP4, MOV, etc.)
- Image files (JPG, PNG, etc.)
- Audio files (MP3, WAV, etc.) for background music

### Step 2: Submit Task

Call `submitAideoTask` with:

- **prompt**: Natural language description of desired composition
- **multiInputs**: Array of all media URLs

### Step 3: Poll for Results

1. First check: Wait **210 seconds** after submission
2. Subsequent checks: Wait **30 seconds** between polls
3. Call `getAideoTaskStatus` to check progress

### Step 4: Timeout Handling

**Maximum wait time: 20 minutes**

If task exceeds 20 minutes:

- Report as timeout failure
- Suggest user try with shorter/smaller media

### Step 5: Return Results

On completion, return the output video URL to user.

## Examples

### Example 1: Merge Images into Video

**User request**: "Create a video from these 5 photos"

```
submitAideoTask:
  prompt: "Combine these images into a video, each image displays for 3 seconds with fade transition effects"
  multiInputs: ["photo1.jpg", "photo2.jpg", "photo3.jpg", "photo4.jpg", "photo5.jpg"]
```

### Example 2: Merge Videos with Background Music

**User request**: "Combine these clips and add background music"

```
submitAideoTask:
  prompt: "Merge these video clips into one video and add the background music"
  multiInputs: ["clip1.mp4", "clip2.mp4", "clip3.mp4", "background_music.mp3"]
```

### Example 3: Create Video Montage

**User request**: "Create a montage from my vacation videos"

```
submitAideoTask:
  prompt: "Create a dynamic video montage with smooth transitions between clips"
  multiInputs: ["vacation1.mp4", "vacation2.mp4", "vacation3.mp4"]
```

## Priority for Multi-Media Tasks

When using aideo for multi-media composition:

- **Always use aideo first** for: Images to video / Video concatenation / Audio-video merge
- Priority order: Translation > Erase > Highlight > Vision > Other

## Important Notes

- Processing time: approximately 10 minutes per 1-minute of output video
- Supports multiple input formats (MP4, MOV, JPG, PNG, MP3, etc.)
- For style transfer (comic/anime), use the `transferring-video-styles` skill instead
- Maximum wait time is 20 minutes
