Find every cut in a video
Find the cuts lists every point where the shot changes. Cuts appear as red marks on the timeline and fades as amber ones, next to a scene list you can click to jump to any shot.
What it does
- Finds hard cuts, and fades and dissolves when you ask it to.
- Ignores one-frame flashes, which are not cuts.
- A scene list with each scene's start, end and length.
- Copy every time in one go.
- Times the graphics card against the processor on your file and uses whichever is faster.
What you can set
- Sensitivity: how big a change counts as a cut.
- Shortest scene: scenes shorter than this are merged, from 0.2 to 10 seconds.
- Also find fades and dissolves.
- Ignore flashes.
