Needs work
Trying to use this to “remove commercials” lossless. Hopefully a future update fixes the output to start and stop at the exact frames you requested. I ended up with excess frames before and after—even when using the “fine adjust” feature (when marking at a solid black frame this became obvious).
A few more enhancements that would help:
* Ability to specifiy the filename of the exported file. The developer has used a directory selection dialog instead of a filename save dialog. In my case, it changed the file extension from .m4v to .mp4 and re-used the same file name.
* Sound while moving the playhead (to avoid truncated sounds on a fade to black)
* More keyboard shortcuts, specifically for mark management
* I’d rather see no Video Format, Frame Rate and Bit Rate options when using lossless trim than a drop down control with only “smart” in the list. Smart isn’t the right term, its "same as source".
* A better button for export. It looks like an undo/refresh button. Thanks for the mouse over tool tip to help clarify the ambiguity.
* Support complex trimming without intermediate exports and a merge.
* Add a video by dragging into the application instead of forcing the use of the "Add Videos" button.
* "Fine Adjust" is the default and the unit moved by the keyboard is in frames, not time.
* A selection indicator to let you know that keyboard left and right will either move the playhead, the cut marker or both.
Hoping a future update works better for my purposes.
