Hello. I was going out for an appointment and I wanted to leave my pc on, doing some conversion work.
I'm using MeGUI.
I had no time to cut the commercials from my DVB-T MPEG recording (MPEG-2+MP2), so I decided to convert at least (to h.264) the whole video stream, thinking that later, come back home, I would have been able to set a cutlist and apply the cuts to my converted movie (and then to the mp2 stream, that I didn't need to re-encode; and as a final step I would have mux the cutted .h264 stream and the .mp2 cutted stream together in a MKV container).
Now, while MeGUI includes an Audio Cutter tool, that reads the .clt cutlists file the MeGUI itself creates (if one wants to save it, and I always do), it doesn't include a "true" Video Cutter, so I hadn't be able to apply the saved cuts (that I prepared after coming back home) to my .h264 video stream file. I've been able to apply them to the .MP2 audio stream only, as usual, with the Audio Cutter.
AFAIK, MeGUI doesn't include a "true" Video Cutter - I was saying - it includes an AviSynth script cutter instead. So I thought to use it to create a modified (cut) video stream to feed the MKV muxer with, togetherr with my cut mp2 audio stream file.
But the MKV muxer doesn't allow an AviSynth script as input video stream (I get an error after the queue starts, if I try to do so). Too bad.
So, at the moment I just need to cut my "movie.h264" video stream file using the .clt cutlist file.
Will I have to do it manually with another program, processing this video stream (muxed inside a whatever container, I suppose), splitting it into parts by copying and pasting each couple of frame numbers that I have for each segment (from the cutlist file generated by MeGui) and rejoin these segments into a new file, or is there some other option that didn't come up into my mind?
And by the way, why is there an Audio Cutter (I'd rather call it Audio Stream Cutter) but not a Video (Stream) Cutter?
Thank to anyone who will give me some hint.
