Trim¶

Allows to trim (cut) audio or video.

Inputs¶

• Start: the time from which the trim should start
• To: the time by which the trim should be finished
• Duration: the duration from the Start time
• Precise: if disabled, the trim will be performed using the nearest keyframes. This method is faster, but inaccurate. If enabled, the trim will be precise, but slower
• Use Duration/To: switch between the To or Duration input

Value format¶

Accepts either the seconds or the timestamp format.

Seconds format¶

Accepts a decimal value in seconds. If duration is known, the value can be negative, meaning, it will be subtracted from the duration. Examples: 5, 10, 20.45, 0.8, -20 (20 seconds before the end).

Timestamp format¶

Accepts a timestamp in any of the following forms:

• HH:MM:SS.mmm - full form
• HH:MM:SS - without milliseconds
• MM:SS.mmm - without hours
• MM:SS - minutes and seconds only

All component values can be optionally zero-padded.

Percentage format¶

Accepts a percentage value from 0% to 100%. Negative values allowed as well. Works only if duration is known.

Examples¶

• Get first 20 seconds:
  to: 20 or duration: 20
• Get last 20 seconds:
  start: -20
• Skip first 5 seconds and take 10 minutes:
  start: 5, duration: 00:10:00
• Skip first 4 minutes 35 seconds and last 45 seconds:
  start: 00:4:35, to: -45
• Get first half:
  duration: 50%, or to: 50%
• Get last half:
  start: 50%
• Get middle half (skip 25% from the beginning and the end):
  ss: 25%, to: -25%
