  • Lossless trimming and cutting with an almost direct data copy, so it is extremely fast
  • Discards gigabytes from camera or drone footage without a re-encode and without quality loss
  • Marks and exports selected video sections
  • Supports separate or concatenated output
  • Cuts land on keyframes unless you allow a re-encode, so trims are not always frame exact
  • It is a cutting tool, not an editor: no titles, transitions or colour work
  • Requires FFmpeg and Chafa
