Pixabay Footage — Pexels 之外的备选图片/视频素材

Use this skill when:

  • Pexels results are not suitable or quota is exhausted
  • You need alternative copyright-free images or video clips
  • Preparing visual assets for content creation

Prerequisites: PIXABAY_API_KEY must be set. Register free at https://pixabay.com/api/docs/


Usage

通过 PATH 调用 wrapper,无需拼接脚本路径。

下载图片

pixabay-footage \
  --type image \
  --terms "sunset,ocean,forest" \
  --aspect 16:9 \
  --output-dir ./assets/images \
  [--max-clips 15]

下载视频

pixabay-footage \
  --type video \
  --terms "sunset,ocean" \
  --aspect 9:16 \
  --output-dir ./video_assets/footage \
  --min-duration 5 \
  --max-duration 30

重要:视频下载一次只允许下载一个(脚本已强制 --max-clips=1),不允许批量下载。下载时应根据 content-check 报告的时长缺口,通过 --min-duration--max-duration 精确匹配所需时长,不要下载远超需求的素材。

Same interface as pexels-footage. Output format identical.


When to Choose Pixabay vs Pexels

Pixabay Pexels
Photo quality Good High
Photo count 4M+ 3M+
Video quality Good (HD) Higher (HD/4K)
Video count 2M+ 1M+
Rate limits 100 req/min (free) 200 req/hour (free)
Best for Objects, abstract, concepts People, nature, lifestyle

Pexels is the primary footage source (higher quality). Fall back to Pixabay if Pexels results are insufficient or rate-limited.
