Written in Python, this program uses VLC media player to preview a video, and then it uses FFMPEG with "copy" codec to quickly cut out a segment from the video. VLC seek/jump hotkeys, as well as in/out hotkeys are supported.

Currently, it's just in Python (no EXE), but it should be easy to run it from Python. From the command prompt, install the dependencies:
pip install wxPython
pip install boto
pip install selenium
pip install google-api-python-client

Then start the program by:
python Trimmer.py

This project is a simpler edition of the Trimmer project by Andy (https://sourceforge.net/projects/trimmer/).

Features

  • Supports VLC-like hotkeys to seek in the video (arrow keys with shift, alt, ctrl, or ctrl+alt).
  • Hotkeys similar to Premiere Pro's in/out ('i', 'o', 'shift + i', 'shift + o').
  • Very fast video trimming due to codec "copy" mode.
  • Config ("Trimmer.ini") can be modified for custom FFMEPG command line.
