You have seen them, video clips grabbed off Instagram or TikTok have this EXTREMELY annoying logo and sound at the end (specially Instagram lately, doubly so with headphones). I’d like to just throw a script/command/Bash alias at any of these and have a resulting video without them, and ffmpeg IS the Swiss army knife of video processing, but it’s syntax is NOT what you’d call simple. Does anyone have a recipe for this already?

    I can think of one: it’s FUCKING annoying, I’d be quite fine with the creator watermark in the video itself (and many do so), but that extra tacked-on logo clip, usually at 2-3 times the volume of the clip itself, is EXTREMELY annoying, i understand what you say but this is also a legitimate reason

      Since the primary complaint is unbalanced audio levels, perhaps the better question would be how to construct a command to normalize the audio of the clip rather than removing the attribution to the creators.
