Sometimes you need to cut or trim a video and you want to do it as fast as possible. This is the kind of tool you need.
It won't re-encode the video. You'll keep the exact same encoding.

Proof of concept: Interactive overlay for OBS made with Tooll3

newemka — Sat, 28 Oct 2023 20:15:39 +0000

Since Tooll3 supports Spout and allows to export your creations as a standalone application.
