There was still some serious issues with keyframes. Finally use ffmpeg to stream copy concatenate the files back together. Then earch chunk gets it's own ffmpeg process for encoding.


I've been (earlier) toying around with self made bash script which split the video in chuncks using ffmpeg stream copy. The drawback is dd knows nothing about keyframes and you can't start a clip without keyframe. Well, you could use dd to cut pieces from video. But hey, the ability to extract a clip from a longer video is my most needed feature. Didn't this this beforehand, but obviously it cannot merge two similar clips. I'm already a BIG fan of mpv, so this might be exactly what I need.ĮDIT: D'oh. Can't say I've enjoyed working with video editors on linux, this is a breath of fresh air. It is not a fully featured solution but it means I can trim video from within my preffered media player and don't have to deal with ffmpeg on the cli. It also allows cropping, audio removal n other stuff. There's an encode_slice option which just snips, with ffmpeg, and doesn't encode. I use it to cut out commercials from TV recordings, can't wish for anything better.īut i guess it's better than having nodejs and electron as depencies.įor quickly trimming video I use a few scripts with mpv. Set audio and video to "copy" and there will be no recoding. :oĬan it perform stream copy in place of encoding when exporting? It seems not to use ffmpeg under the hood, but is a standalone program. It's little more than what I'm looking for.
#Vidcutter vs losslesscut how to
Please learn how to denote units correctly! I've always used Avidemux, you don't like it for some reason? Gentoo IRC channels reside on Libera.Chat. I've done it via cli ffmpeg before, but a gui for the task would really help. Before I completely lose my mind and start creating an ebuild for it.ĭoes anyone know any similar video cutting/merging tool, that does it losslessly.
#Vidcutter vs losslesscut install
The problem is, its intended install method pulls some version X of ffmpeg binaries.

Although I've been using shotcut lately, and it's awesome. Which is 95% of the time the only video editor I need. Posted: Tue 4:47 pm Post subject: Lossless-cut Gentoo Forums :: View topic - Lossless-cut
