What it does
Give it a video file and it rebuilds it as a HyperFrames (HTML) project whose render matches the original frame for frame. npx hyperframes reverse start probes the file and measure cuts finds every cut; text, captions, cards, UI and charts are rebuilt in HTML, photos and logos are cut from their own boxes, on-screen people are re-shot with HeyGen from a cleaned plate of the original shot, and hyperframes diff compares the render with the original until it matches, ending with a REVERSE.md of what is rebuilt and what is approximate. Reverse is a HyperFrames Pro feature: it needs a HeyGen sign-in on Pro, plus add-on credits when a run needs more. Use it on videos you own or have rights to, or to study a reference and then make your own; for a breakdown report without rebuilding, see rea-video.
Use when
- rebuild an existing video as an editable HyperFrames project
- remake your own old video so its text, timing or brand can change
- match a reference edit frame by frame to learn how it was built
- 复刻这个视频 / 照着这个视频做一个
Not for
- Copying someone else's video to repost: study the reference and make your own
- A new video from a brief: use HyperFrames
- Only a breakdown of how a video was made: use rea-video
- Free-plan accounts: Reverse needs HyperFrames Pro
