Release Notes

New

  • Cut a clip with --start, --end and --duration. conv talk.mp4 --start 1:02 --end 1:10 writes talk-1m02s-1m10s.mp4, and an output name
    changes the format as well (clip.gif, .mp3). Times are seconds, m:ss
    or h:mm:ss, and a leading - counts back from the end. The cut is exact
    to the frame. A cut that starts after 0 re-encodes the video, and so does
    one from 0 of video with B-frames, with a note that says why; any other
    cut from 0 is a stream copy. --max-size sizes the clip rather than the
    whole file, and --strip-metadata, --fps, --resize and --crf work
    as usual. A --to batch writes into a folder named after the range
    (1m02s-1m10s/), and --json gets a range object.
  • conv trim FILE cuts clips in the terminal. The frame under the
    slider is drawn at the top, with a bar of the video's colours and a bar of
    its loudness below. The arrow keys move the slider, c marks a clip's
    start and then its end, and w writes every clip the way the flags would.
    A clip can keep the picture alone or the sound alone. The picture uses
    kitty's or iTerm2's graphics where the terminal has them and text
    characters elsewhere; --graphics overrides the choice.
