For my personal flavor I don't like the video to play immediately when I open a file I was able to set split points with your tool and mkvmerge did the job.īesides the problems with the recordings, I'd like to give some feedback on the tool, if you like to know: Interesting, as I stated earlier I downloaded andoma-tvheadend-6bb8d14 on and now it works for me. Be careful: while edledit is most probably harmless, mkvedlmerge may wreck havoc with your precious movies, so please test it before doing anything serious with it. If you want to definitively remove the cut parts, you can then run the included mkvedlmerge which will read the edl file and call mkvmerge to split the mkv and merge it again without the cuts.

There is a variety of shortcuts to start/end cuts, move by adjustable steps in the movie (including shortcuts to reduce the step size and move forward or backwards in one operation, to quickly zero-in on the point where you want to cut).Įdledit saves the cutlist as an edl file ( ), which can be interpreted natively by mplayer and XBMC. What you'll find there is a small GUI program (edledit/edledit.py) to preview a mkv file, and create cuts. Since you seem to have just the same requirements, I just pushed the code on github ( ) It's working quite nicely to fit my needs, but I never got the time to package it. This is the default mode.Īll following file names will be opened in the chapter editor.Īll following file names will be opened in the header editor.Last year I also tried to find a solution to cut mkv files easily and never found something that was suiting my tastes. Note that if an instance of the application is already running when the application is started a second time all file names given on the command line are handled by the already-running instance.Īll following file names will be added as input files to the current merge job. The default mode is adding files for merging. Any other file name is added as an input file for merging, opened in the chapter editor or in the header editor depending on the current mode. Listing configuration file names with the extensionĬauses the GUI to load the those configuration files in the appropriate tool. source files, track options etc) can be saved and restored.
