Trimming at multiple points in one script

[dar1us]

Probably a real simple answer, but how can I load an captured AVI file and include only certain parts. My example is removing the adverts with out cutting them using VirtualDub or anysuch program. Keeping it all in AVIsytnh

I.E frames 150>250 and 350>450 but in one operation.

Again, sure there is a simple answer, sorry to be of a bother asking.

Hi-

Trim1=Trim(0,149)
Trim2=Trim(251,349)
Trim3=Trim(451,0)
Trim1+Trim2+Trim3

I didn't quite understand if you were cutting out those frames in the example, or keeping those frames. What I gave you cuts them out.

i was actually trying to keep them. but thanks, that totally makes sense:)

so i could have - my 'simple' example:

AVISource("c:\4x23\4x23.avi")
ConvertToYUY2()
Trim1=Trim(150,250)
Trim2=Trim(250,350)
Trim3=Trim(350,450)
Trim1+Trim2+Trim3
Fadein(12)
Telecide()
LanczosResize(576,432)

btw, that was a freshly capped episode of voyager on SKY|ONE today:)

aint' I sad

I usually do things like:


### divvy it up

show = src.Trim(6315, 11408) ++ src.Trim(17796, 26726)
show = show ++ src.Trim(31357, 49033) ++ src.Trim(56368, 78929)
show = show ++ src.Trim(85259, 90314) ++ src.Trim(96877, 111746)

intro = src.Trim(4445, 5946)
credits = src.Trim(105178, 105359)

but the general inefficiency of the code makes me realize that what we really need are += and ++= operators. Should be easy enough to add... :)

DVX features a VirtualDub cutting to AviSynth Trim converter, it works with both deleting ranges in VD and select a range and both combined. But I would let VirtualDub do the cutting, I only coded this because I needed it for the comp test
