Install from pypi is done through:

pip install tesla_dashcam

tesla_dashcam - Tesla DashCam Creator

required arguments:
  --source SOURCE       Folder containing the saved camera files (default:
                        None)

  --output OUTPUT       Path/Filename for the new movie file. (default: None)

optional arguments:

  -h, --help            show this help message and exit

  --layout {WIDESCREEN,FULLSCREEN}
                        Layout of the video. Widescreen puts video of all 3
                        cameras next to each other. Fullscreen puts the front
                        camera on top in middle and side cameras below it next
                        to each other (default: WIDESCREEN)

  --quality {LOWEST,LOWER,LOW,MEDIUM,HIGH}
                        Define the quality setting for the video, higher
                        quality means bigger file size but might not be
                        noticeable. (default: LOWER)

  --compression {ultrafast,superfast,veryfast,faster,fast,medium,slow,slower,veryslow}
                        Speed to optimize video. Faster speed results in a
                        bigger file. This does not impact the quality of the
                        video, just how much time is used to compress it.
                        (default: medium)

  --encoding {x264,x265}
                        Encoding to use. x264 is can be viewed on more devices
                        but results in bigger file. x265 is newer encoding
                        standard (default: x264)

  --timestamp           Include timestamp in video (default)
  --no-timestamp        Do not include timestamp in video

  --ffmpeg FFMPEG       Path and filename for ffmpeg. Specify if ffmpeg is not
                        within path. (default: ffmpeg)

  --font FONT           Fully qualified filename (.ttf) to the font to be
                        chosen for timestamp. (default:
                        /Library/Fonts/Arial.ttf)
