SpiderVideo v1.6.0 — narration, captions, and music that ducks
SpiderVideo stitches generated scenes into one video with transitions and background music. Until this release the music was the only sound it could carry. A stitching job now takes a narration track, burns word captions into the picture, and dips the music under the voice.
What's new in v1.6.0
Narration plays over the scenes.
voiceUrllays an audio file you already have across the whole video, at avoiceVolumeyou choose. SpiderVideo never generates the speech. A voice that cannot be downloaded, or that carries no audio, fails the job instead of rendering a silent video.The music gets out of the way.
duckMusicdrops the music about 12 dB while the voice speaks and restores it in the pauses. It needs bothmusicUrlandvoiceUrl, and it stays off unless you ask for it. The dip starts shortly before each phrase, so the first word is never buried.Captions burn in, word by word.
captionstakes word tokens carrying astartMsand anendMs, and highlights each word across its own span. They are drawn exactly as timed, and nothing listens to the audio, so a caption is only as accurate as the timings you send.Agents can drive all three. The
create_videotool carries the new fields from@spideriq/mcp1.93.0 and@spideriq/mcp-leads1.17.0. Older installs dropped them without saying so, so upgrade before asking an agent for a voiceover.
A video that needed a human editing pass for its narration and captions now comes out of the API finished.
