Automate edit

Hello Adelinecker,

Thank you for your post.

If you use xtl, then yes, what you wrote is a correct statement.
If you just use a Video Splitter itself, then the default time format is 100ns.

If I need frame-accurate cuts below 10ms precision, sticking with 100ns format is the only option, right?

Hello,

Thank you for your post.

You can use altarnative time format types described here:
https://www.solveigmm.com/en/support/doc/video-editing-sdk-for-windows/sdk-batch-file-structure.html#time_format_types

For 100ns you can see that 1 sec = 1*10^7 unit. So you need firstly convert time to seconds and then multiply by 10^7.

You can change timeFormat to time10ms.
It will be possibly more relevant for you, but in this case you need to keep in mind that the last digits are not milliseconds, but tens of ms. This is also written in the description by the above link.

That is, if you need to cut exactly starting from the time of 0.125 sec, then this will not work when using this time10ms format. It will only be possible from 0.12.

Also please note, the editing accuracy that will be with time10ms format is not units of milliseconds, but tens of milliseconds.

I am trying to at least somewhat automate the editing of videos. I have looked at the SSP files and 100ns documentation but am having trouble converting it. Basically I have a subtitle file and I want to use information from it to put in the SSP file without having to manually cut the video in the program. So if the subtitle file has dialogue from 3m2s - 3m4s and I want to cut that out with video splitter, how can I convert those numbers to 100ns numbers that the SSP file understands, so it can be cut in videosplitter without me putting the markers in manually? That way I can just edit the SSP file and paste in the numbers I want cut out which would be faster for me. I can have dozens of these edits per video file and hundreds of video files. Thanks.
