Right now, i encode my caps 3 at a time for 1 dvd. i use x264 via vdubmod to encode. basically, i do 1 pass across all 3 clips together, and the 2nd pass to individual clips.

i.e 1st pass frame 1 - 30
and 2nd pass - frame 1 - 10, then another clip from frame 11 - 20, and 3rd clip frame 21 - 30.

to get better quality i would like to use megui with x264 as opposed to vfw but i need to be able to split the encoded mp4 video file.

i cant see any way of doing this in megui. only using zones which afaik, doesnt create seperate files. i've also checked mkvmerge and while it does let me specify a time to split the file, it isnt frame specific.

ok, that took a lot more writing than i though

anyone know anyway of doing what i need here? either frame specific cutting on mp4 video files, or using megui to split the video as above?
