That sounds interesting. I have read the products page, but did not yet try the software. Do you - or does anybody else - have sufficient experience with the Solveig MM AVI Trimmer?

Shure We had developed this

Nice

As soon as I find the time to test it, I'll probably add it to the "Links" sticky in this forum.

Couple of things I would like to have:

1. Somekind of preview so that I dont have to use VD for this

2. Ability to cut some part from middle of the file

And both these are the things I need for my TV-captures that I have made with my DV-cam so that I could cut out the commercials

[Dmitry Vergheles]

Hello Valky,

First of all thank you for the interest in our software.

1. Somekind of preview so that I dont have to use VD for this

The preview featuare will be added in the nearest feature.

2. Ability to cut some part from middle of the file

Do you just mean several DV parts instead of one part?
Or you mean deleting some part from input DV file?

[Valky]

Well, I mean things like commercials. There can be etc 2 short parts somewhere in the middle of my 60 min file that I want to cut out of my final file if you know what I mean?

Lets just say that I have a file that has two parts (commercials in example) that I dont wanna keep:

1. Now I have to first trim the first file from beginning of the file to the one frame before commersials (or any part that I dont wanna keep).

2. Then I have to trim the second file from first frame after the commercials to one frame before next commercial.

3. Then I have to trim the third file from beginning of the first frame after the commercial to the last frame of my file.

4. Then I have to join these three files to get the final file I wanna keep and compress or put back to my dv-tape.

If your software could do all this (cut unwanted parts) at one session, it would be perfect from my opinion

[Dmitry Vergheles]

Hello Valky,

Thank you for the so detailed explanation
I have understood what you mean.
I think such feature will appear soon.
Do you need some more useful features? In reality for the futher timmer evolution we are trying to collect consumers feedback.
So we'll take into account all critical remarks!

[Valky]

Well if everything I mentioned above works without bugs,
then I dont need anything more

But we'll see...

You want traffic to your site from DV users? Create a proper freeware DV capture utility, especially one which works at the data packet level, not the Windows API level, so PAL can be read on NTSC devices and vice versa. There are 2 freeware DV capture utilities; WinDV and DVIO. WinDV does not capture large files and neither can properly handle DV tapes with unrecorded sections. DVIO has no viewing window and no control of the firewire device. Something like WinDV with the ability to capture until the end of the tape and low-level data packet reading would be nice.

Seems to me that this is not freeware anymore, now that I finally wanted to try this?


Hmm..Seems to me that it does open and preview some of my dv-files, but not all of them. Is there some kind of time or filesize limit? They are all captured with the same ap and trimmed with virtualdub.

Hi Valky,
The beta version you have has some issues concerning DV.
Now we are preparing the release version where these troubles have been fixed. I hope it will appear within this week.

As for freeware, you right -Video Spliter is sharaware version of AVI Trimmer with GUI and advanced features. But in the nearest future we'll update our freeware trimmer with features of the Splitter (preview and multi-fragment processing) since both of them are based on our AVI Trimmer Component.
