+# Python script for splitting videos into tiles with ffmpeg
+
+It supports simple grid definitions and advanced layout definitions from a json layout definition file.
+
+## Installation
+
+### Install git, ffmpeg and python3 with pip on your system  
+For Debian: 
+```
+sudo apt install git ffmpeg python3 python3-pip
+```
+
+### Clone this git repository
+```
+git clone https://git.notice.at/redplanet/video-shredder.git
+```
+
+### Enter directory and install python requirements
+```
+pip3 install -r requirements.txt
+```
+
+## Usage
+grid mode:
+```
+python3 videoshredder.py grid <columns> <rows> <input_file> <output_path>
+```
+
+file mode:
+```
+python3 videoshredder.py file <layout_path> <input_file> <output_path>
+```
