/**
 * Delete silence from Final Cut Pro timeline using a script.
 * Demo: https://imgur.com/a/Zisav
 *
 * This script accepts an ffmpeg silencedetect log as input.
 *
 * To setup, have fcp running along with your clip selected. Ensure that the
 * timecode will start at zero before running this script. That is, if your clip
 * is in the middle of your project, create a compound clip first and then enter
 * into that clip before running this script.
 *
 * To generate silence.txt:
 *     /usr/local/bin/ffmpeg -i $1 -af silencedetect=n=-50dB:d=1 -f s16le -y /dev/null 2>&1 | tee silence.txt
 *
 * Currently it adds a little margin of silence at the end of each noised clip. You can adjust this below.
 * If you adjust the silencedetection dB, then this number may need tweaking.
 *
 * For example, if your dB filter is higher, you'll filter out more background
 * noise, but you might clip the audio you want. Extending the margins can help
 * prevent clipping a natural trailing off of the sound you want.
