Automating video reframing in python

So I'm on a quest to automate video editing for my youtube channel as much as possible. Currently I'm trying to build a program that would basically auto reframe a horizontal video to a vertical one (from 16:9 to 9:16) while also keeping the speakers head in the frame. I tried resolving this with openCv library with the help of claude and chatgpt but it leads to a dead end. I'm simply stuck and don't know any alternatives because there's not much info on this problem.

Do you guys know a library i could use for this that I maybe haven't heard of? Maybe I'm overcomplicating and there's a software that does this for free, I find filmora's automatic reframing perfect but not sure if they'll block it off once my trial runs out.

I added a prediction results page to my Python football (Premier League soccer) prediction page.

A while ago I made a football predictor in Python to predict Premier League football results.

Original thread

The page would show predictions for the next 30 days of football matches and stay updated throughout the season. It uses a Gaussian Naive Bayes model to predict results based on past data. It uses the data from the 2021-2024 seasons.

Tonight I've added a page that shows how well the predictor has been performing over the season. It pulls the season's results from the BBC and compares its predictions to the results. You can see on the site the correct predictions in green and incorrect predictions in red.

Prediction results page: https://www.jimmyrustles.com/football/results

Original prediction page: https://www.jimmyrustles.com/football

Github repo: https://github.com/sgriffin53/footballpredictorflask

What My Project Does

The original project shows football predictions for the current season. This page shows how well the predictor is performing for the current season. It allows me to see which results were correct at a glance as it's colour coded.

Target Audience (e.g., Is it meant for production, just a toy project, etc.

This is mostly for me and my friend Jay, as we've been using it to bet on games (though its accuracy isn't great). The football prediction page gets about 10-15 human visitors a day, so

It supports both classification and regression tasks, enabling a wide range of applications. By leveraging both traditional and oblique splits, `obliquetree` provides flexibility and improved generalization, particularly in shallow trees, making it a powerful alternative to conventional decision trees.

You can access the project from here: [ObliqueTree GitHub Repository](https://github.com/sametcopur/obliquetree)

What `obliquetree` Does:

* **Oblique Splits for Better Patterns**: Utilizes linear combinations of features for splitting, capturing complex patterns effectively.
* **Traditional Splits for Simplicity**: Supports axis-aligned splits, maintaining simplicity and interpretability.
* **Performance Optimization**: Ensures high speed and efficiency while supporting categorical features and missing value handling.
* **Scalability and Interpretability**: Excels at providing interpretable models with fewer splits.

# Key Features

* **Oblique Splits**: Use linear combinations of features to capture complex data patterns.
* **Axis-Aligned Splits**: Supports conventional decision tree behavior for simplicity.
* **Categorical Feature Handling**: Works seamlessly with categorical data, requiring only label encoding.
* **Optimized Performance**: Up to 50% faster for float columns and 200% faster for integer columns compared to `scikit-learn`.
* **Feature Constraints**: Limit the number of features used in oblique splits for simpler, interpretable trees.
* **Missing Value Handling**: Automatically assigns missing values (`NaN`) to optimal leaves.
* **Seamless Integration**: Guarantees

Handling embedded iframe player (PlayerJS - bunny.net) in Django template

I am trying to create a custom video player using PlayerJS within my Django app (Plain htmx template), have tested the general setup on a static website with no problem, but the player events/methods are not working properly in Django. Feel like I am missing something obvious.

The "ready" event fires on load

player.on("ready", () => {
console.log("Player ready");
})

But all other methods/events don't fire/ have no effect. The video shows normally and I can start/stop it using the player controls provided by bunny.net. However the "play" event is not firing. I am slo getting no error messages.

player.on("play", () => {
console.log("Video is playing");
})


Console

My template

{% extends 'base.html' %}
{% load customtags %}
{% block content %}

<h1>Videos index</h1>

My django based, open source PDF manager and viewer now supports editing and markdown notes

Hi r/django,

I am the developer of PdfDing. You can find the repo [here](https://github.com/mrmn2/PdfDing). Last time I posted about PdfDing, there were a couple of features that were requested quite often. As they are now implemented I just wanted to do a quick follow up post. PdfDing now has the following features:

* it is now possible to edit PDFs by adding annotations, highlighting and drawings
* you can organize your PDFs with multi-level tags as simple tags did not work for many people
* you can add markdown notes to store additional information about your PDFs
* there is now a live demo instance. You can try PdfDing [here](https://demo.pdfding.com) without pulling the docker image.
* very soon you will be able to star and archive PDFs

If you like PdfDing I would be really happy over a star on [GitHub](https://github.com/mrmn2/PdfDing). If anyone wants to contribute you are welcome to do so!

Django Developer Job at Spotter

Hi everyone! I recently applied for a Django Developer position at Spotte (Spotter Labs). After passing an initial screening, I was told to complete a coding assessment with the promise of a $100 USD reward upon successful completion.

Has anyone else done this task and actually moved forward in the process? Did you get paid and proceed to the next stage, or do you think this might be a scam? I know some might say "why not try," but I’m really stressed with my current work and don’t have the time to invest in this. If I end up spending time on it and nothing comes of it, that would be pretty disappointing.

Django APIs combined with iOS learning resources.

I've been learning Django and started building an iOS app as a first project. I followed a few iOS tutorials and used ChatGPT to get help whenever i get stuck. I struggle to fully grasp the communication and sending data between iOS and Django. I was just wondering if anyone know any good courses or resources for learning more about the Django REST API and building iOS apps that interact with Django and a database.

I created a linter for your dependencies (requirements.txt file!)

Hey there. I've been working on a dependencies-related product for the last year. A lot of engineering teams that I've seen are building their own internal tooling to check on dependencies.

In short, people either update too frequently or don't update at all.

So, I decided to create a simple linter that checks all the main issues and best practices, comes with sensible defaults, and allows you to adjust it to your needs.

It supports npm/yarn, Go, pip, and Cargo. Any feedback is welcome!

Link: https://github.com/DepsHubHQ/depshub


What My Project Does
Checks your requirements.txt file on 20+ rules.

Target Audience
Mostly developers running it locally or on the CI. Still in beta.

Comparison
There are no popular linters for dependencies at all. The most popular tool to deal with dependencies is dependabot but it works in a completely different way.

Calling all drf repo owners - I'll do your work for you for free

Ok, slightly click-bait-ey title, but hear me out.


I'm a senior dev with over a decade of django experience, and nearly 2 decades working in AI. I have created a django specific AI to work as a mid level developer and I'd like to get some feedback on it's performance 'in the wild'.

The easiest way to do this at the moment is for me to manage it and to let it have a branch of it's own (so it's easy for you to optionally ignore anything it does). I use OpenAI and I'll cover all the costs. I'm happy to be effectively interviewed, share details of past projects (privately) etc., whatever processes you need to go through to validate this being worthwhile.

The repo can be open source or private, it can work with django, but it's not great at UI design, thus DRF, but I'm willing to try it on a django repo if there is appetite.

I use this in my current job, I'm head of department and thus able to make the call myself. I've also allowed friends to use it with their work and in general it's a positive experience - fire the request off, grab a drink and

Can you suggest correct model to make for given problem?

I am assigned with a task of adding a reward/penalty type function to our work site. its a point based system.

here is what the system already has.

Employees: Users

Tasks: employees/managers create and assign task, task detail, task deadline etc., you can mark task complete, amend deadline(if self assigned), update status (ongoing, pending, completed, on hold)



points function: points added if task marked complete before deadline, points removed if missed deadline. A manager can override points like negate penalty if there is a valid reason. managers can manually add or deduct points for other things like positive for finding bugs and negative for AWOL or submitting buggy code repeatedly etc. Task based points are calculated automatically while other types are assigned manually. Managers can override points awarded automatically given valid reason. eg: If -3 points are added for missing a deadline but the employee missed it due to being hospitalised then manager would just add/award +3 points to cancel it out. So all manually given points are called manual_adjustment_points.



so I am trying to make a model as the first step. But I keep feeling I am missing something. My current model is as following.



Model: Rewards:

Are there any actual use cases of Python in Excel?

I’m trying to understand how useful it really is/ having not really touched it at all, I imagine someone versed in Python could optimize some of their workflow were they forced to work in excel. But given the fundamental processing limitations of excel I can’t imagine how scalable this is. Has anyone had practical experience using the Python - excel plugin to accomplish things easier than you could in either excel or Python alone and if so, what?
