Save as for clip exports, exact frame stepping, and a tidier player.

What changed

  • Save as. Export (X) still writes to your clips folder. Save as (Shift+X, or the caret next to Export) lets you name the clips and pick the folder: one name for the batch, numbered in film order, any clip renamable on its own, and your last four folders one click away. A name that's taken keeps both files.
  • Frame stepping lands on the exact frame. , and . used to snap to the nearest keyframe, so . often didn't move at all. They now step one frame at a time.
  • Scrub-bar hover preview works across the whole film. It used to show only a handful of stills until you had opened Scenes once.
  • Current time under the playhead. The zoom track shows where you are (to a tenth of a second) right where you're trimming.
  • Cleaner player. The Clips button moved to the top left, and export status now sits above the IN/OUT row, so nothing comes between the clip row and the progress bar. Each clip-row button shows its key (I, O, R, A, X).
  • Removed: picture-in-picture, and changing volume with the scroll wheel (it fought every list that scrolls). Scrolling over the progress bar still seeks; volume stays on the arrow keys and the slider.
  • Clip cards show the film, the file name and where in the film each clip was cut.
  • Remove a film from Recently opened with the × on its poster.
  • Reopening a film goes straight to the source it last played instead of the source list.
  • macOS volume changes apply immediately instead of about two seconds late.

Installing

Windows: StreamCut-Windows-x64-0.3.4-alpha.msi. Installs over 0.3.2 or later. Not signed, so SmartScreen shows "Windows protected your PC": click More info, then Run anyway. ffmpeg is included.

Mac (Apple Silicon): StreamCut-macOS-arm64-0.3.4-alpha.dmg. Ad-hoc signed and not notarized, so macOS blocks the first launch. Press Open Anyway under System Settings → Privacy & Security, or run xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/StreamCut.app. ffmpeg is included. No Intel build.

If you're on 0.3.2 or later, the app offers this update itself.
