#Etka 7.5 64 bit software#

It works like a champ! (In spite of many problems, a slow learning/efficiency curve, and rather inadequate documentation.) But it works! Scrubbing is terribly slow, so I use SMPlayer to quickly find the points where the commercials are. But it DOES seemlessly play, scrub and edit all footage NO MATTER what the resolution is! I can mark my in-point right on the 1st frame of the offending commercial (probably as the last prior frame is probably a P frame, not a B frame), then mark the out-point at the first key frame after the program resumes. And it's slow, taking me maybe 3-5 times longer to remove commercials from a 2-hour (on average) program than if I was in Avidemux. It is rather cumbersome to work with and I think has many bugs which I've been fortunate enough to trigger (ha, ha).

(This is the big news.) I found a software that can edit these out! It turns out I already owned it Replay Media Splitter from Applian. Some are not different, and some don't even have any commericials.Дў. The videos coming into this are not ALWAYS bad (containing commercials with resolutions different from the main footage). I have some good news not perfect, but good.ДЎ. (We do greatly appreciate all your programming time!) Would this be more suited to a separate utility? One who's goal would be to drop all GOPs that are not of the res of the video as a whole? (And while we might be at it, have an extra switch to elect to drop any footage that is VFR!) (I assume when you said 'would cost a lot of time', you were referring to 'computation time', not programming time. But that would be terribly time consuming as finding such start and end points requires going through multiple crashes with paper notes being written as we go, on each edit! I believe if I went to the last good frame (which would be a P), go back to the prior I frame, counting the several frames between as 'victims of war', then do something similar AFTER the bad segment, I suspect I could cut it out.

But it crashes before I can tediously do that. If I could only sit on the first bad frame (which presumably is an I frame), in-mark it, and then sit on the first good frame after the foreign ones, then I could out-mark it and delete. Then once I stepped on the first bad frame, it aborted with no recovery. As expected, it went fine and showed each new frame beyond the last I frame as a P frame. I single stepped forward toward the res-change point.
