Whenever I use Avidemux or VirtualDub2 to cut videos, it always leaves out the last frame at the end point, and the output video ends at the frame beforehand. What are some video cutters that includes that last frame at the end point? It must be capable of cutting both lossy and losslessly.

and you are sure it is not a start counting by 0 issue?

PC software likes to do that

That's just how a lot of editing software likes to work. If you set the inpoint at frame 0, and the endpoint at frame 300, you will select 300 frames - frames 0 - 299. The inpoint is inclusive, the endpoint is exclusive.

Contrast that with Avisynth's trim, in which case both frame numbers are inclusive. I've gotten used to it, but would have always found it more intuitive if something like

Trim(0,100)

would select 100 frames, not (as it does) 101 frames.
