If you don't care about the quality of the cutted scenes projectx, is what i reccommend. But projectx and many other editors are only capable of cutting on a I-Frame The video cut theory is explained at http://www.radonmaster.de/robernd/tMPEG.html unfortunatly it is in german If you want to cut frame accurate (cut on B- and P-Frames too) i think ttcut is the better choice, here you can enable encoding mode so it uses mencoder (and you don't have to read the immense man page for mencoder) to recode the video. Not the whole video is encoded, only a maximum of 14 pictures (i think 15 pictures is the standard GOP lenght for MPEG video) around the cut mark depending on where exactly you want to cut i don't know if kino or avidemux can handle this now, if anyone knows better please tell me! -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
