> Open-source AI engine for fully automated short video production, from script generation to final render, with ComfyUI and TTS integration.

## Install

Save as a script file and run:

# Pixelle-Video — AI Automated Short Video Engine

## Quick Use
```bash
git clone https://github.com/ATH-MaaS/Pixelle-Video.git
cd Pixelle-Video
pip install -r requirements.txt
python main.py --config config.yaml
```

## Introduction
Pixelle-Video is an open-source AI engine that automates the entire short video production pipeline. It takes a topic or script and produces a finished video with voiceover, visuals, subtitles, and background music without manual editing.

## What Pixelle-Video Does
- Generates scripts from topics using LLM integration
- Produces AI voiceover via configurable TTS backends
- Creates or selects visuals through ComfyUI image generation
- Adds synchronized subtitles and background music
- Outputs ready-to-publish short videos in standard formats

## Architecture Overview
Pixelle-Video is built as a modular pipeline in Python. Each stage (script, audio, visual, subtitle, composition) runs as an independent module orchestrated by a central workflow engine. ComfyUI handles image generation, FFmpeg handles media compositing, and LLM providers handle script creation. Configuration files define the pipeline steps and model choices.

## Self-Hosting & Configuration
- Requires Python 3.10+ and FFmpeg installed locally
- Configure LLM provider keys in the YAML config
- Set up ComfyUI locally or point to a remote instance for image generation
- TTS backend is configurable (multiple engines supported)
- Output resolution, format, and duration are adjustable via config

## Key Features
- End-to-end automated video production from text input
- Pluggable LLM, TTS, and image generation backends
- ComfyUI integration for high-quality AI-generated visuals
- Batch processing for multiple videos in sequence
- Subtitle generation with timing synchronization

## Comparison with Similar Tools
- **MoneyPrinterTurbo** — focuses on monetization workflows; Pixelle-Video is more modular and extensible
- **Revideo** — code-driven video editing; Pixelle-Video is fully automated from script to output
- **FFmpeg** — low-level media tool; Pixelle-Video orchestrates FFmpeg as part of a higher-level pipeline
- **OpenMontage** — AI production system; Pixelle-Video targets short-form content specifically

## FAQ
**Q: What LLM providers does it support?**
A: It supports OpenAI-compatible APIs including local models via Ollama or vLLM.

**Q: Do I need a GPU?**
A: A GPU is recommended for ComfyUI image generation but not strictly required for the pipeline itself.

**Q: What video formats are supported?**
A: MP4 is the default output format; other FFmpeg-supported formats can be configured.

**Q: Can I use my own images instead of AI-generated ones?**
A: Yes, you can provide a folder of images and the pipeline will use them instead of generating new ones.
