From my testing avidemux(v2.6.8) will copy all tracks. No need to select which to copy. Then you can let ffmpeg deal with which tracks to transcode/keep, etc. Also, I might have forgotten to mention that I have avidemux set to use MKV muxer for output. Another point, avidemux only can use two cut points, one at the start, > one at the end, so no, it can't be used. > To clarify: with avidemux you can only setup one cut at a time (starting and ending points). Once you have the region selected, you can just delete it, then mark the next region you want to delete/remove, repeat. The interface is a little clunky, but this way you could cut out multiple sections from one file. > > Good luck and let us know what you decide to use. > > Well, so far, nothing. > > I have to leave the original recordings untouched for years till I find > a solution. > Just to throw another one in the mix: comskip (http://www.kaashoek.com/comsk ip/). I have been playing around with it. There is a SDL GUI that you can review/adjust the results with after analysis. In the GUI, you can step forward and back by single-frames. It supports different output formats including EDL and XML. Major down-side is that I have not figured out how to stop comskip from analyzing my file first (even telling it not to use any detection methods). _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-user mailing list ffmpeg-user@ffmpeg.org http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-user To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-user-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
