Frequently Asked Questions
How is trimming different to splitting and cropping?
There are several basic approaches to video editing.
Trimming a video is editing of a video stream in which any unnecessary parts are “trimmed”. Generally speaking this is just fine-tuning of the duration and clips position in an episode.
Splitting (dividing, fission) a video isn’t just trimming a video clip to change its duration. With the help of a splitter as well as with the help of a trimmer you can cut out unnecessary scenes from a video. But its main feature is the ability to split one video into several pieces.
Video cropping is video editing in which a selection is cropped out (for example, near the video edges - removing stripes, black margins). SolveigMM Video Splitter does not provide such functionality.
