This looks cool. I am planning to write some tools for semi-automated processing of a video dataset soon. Are there any other strong alternatives to this library that I should consider? Am OK with any language.

An example task: automatically detect cuts between different shots with high sensitivity, e.g. many false positives, show the user a clip of +/- 2 seconds around each proposed cut, user presses a key to confirm/deny that it's actually a cut.

It seems to me like what you're trying to do is analyze video, while Moviepy is mostly really good at programatic editing. Have you looked in to OpenCV?

Yeah I would detect the cuts with something else. I just need the library to read/write video files, display them on screen, etc.
