   Hi,

   I think the documentation hasn't been updated here. I recommend checking the documentation here: https://github.com/fourMs/MGT-python/wiki

   If you want to compute the motion average of your video file, use the following code:

   source_video = musicalgestures.MgVideo('/path/to/source/video.avi')
   motion_average = source_video.blend(component_mode='average') # average image of the video
   motion_average.show() # view result

   In order to get the average picture of a video it is now required to call the .blend(component_mode='average') function.
   The .average() function was removed from the musical gestures toolbox. Functions that blend two video frames into each other are now accessible with the .blend() function.

   You can check wiki documentation for more details: https://github.com/fourMs/MGT-python/wiki/4-%E2%80%90-Video%E2%80%90based-Processes#blend
