demo-video（演示视频）

Demo Video Creator

Create polished product demo videos by automating browser interactions.

Overview

1. Plan the demo sequence (pages, interactions, timing)
2. Record frames using Playwright CDP screencast
3. Encode to video with FFmpeg

Quick Start

Prerequisites

• Clawdbot browser running (browser action=start profile=clawd)
• App accessible via browser (localhost or remote)
• FFmpeg installed for encoding

Recording Workflow

1. Start the Clawdbot browser if not running
2. Navigate to the app manually or via browser action=open
3. Customize scripts/record-demo.js for the target app
4. Run: node scripts/record-demo.js
5. Encode: bash scripts/frames-to-video.sh

Planning a Demo

See references/demo-planning.md for guidance on:

• Structuring demo sequences
• Timing and pacing
• Interaction patterns
• What makes demos compelling

Scripts

scripts/record-demo.js

Template Playwright script that:

• Connects to Clawdbot browser via CDP
• Starts screencast capture (JPEG frames)
• Executes demo sequence (navigation, clicks, hovers, typing)
• Saves frames to output directory

Customize for each demo:

• DEMO_SEQUENCES array - define pages and interactions
• OUTPUT_DIR - where to save frames
• FRAME_SKIP - skip every Nth frame (lower = more frames)

scripts/frames-to-video.sh

FFmpeg encoding script with presets:

• mp4 - H.264, good quality/size balance (default)
• gif - Animated GIF for embedding
• webm - VP9, smaller files

Usage: ./frames-to-video.sh [input_dir] [output_name] [format]

Interaction Patterns

// Navigation
await page.goto('http://localhost/dashboard');
await page.waitForTimeout(2000);

// Click element
await page.locator('button:has-text("Create")').click();
await page.waitForTimeout(500);

// Hover (show tooltips, hover states)
await page.locator('.card').first().hover();
await page.waitForTimeout(1000);

// Type text
await page.locator('input[placeholder="Search"]').fill('query');
await page.waitForTimeout(500);

// Press key
await page.keyboard.press('Enter');
await page.keyboard.press('Escape');

// Scroll
await page.evaluate(() => window.scrollBy(0, 300));

Tips

• Timing: 2s on page load, 0.5-1s between interactions, 1.5s to show results
• Frame skip: Use 3-5 for smooth video, 8-10 for smaller files
• Quality: 85-90 JPEG quality balances size and clarity
• Resolution: Browser window size determines output resolution
• Loops: GIFs should loop seamlessly - end where you started
