can you cut/excise the unwanted part off your DV clip?

[tigerten]

most of the editting softwares do the cropping or trimming job nicely. my question is: can I cut(excise) the unwanted parts off a clip while automatically joining the gaps left behind? this could be a neat feature to have.

AviSynth can do that for you. Read here

thank you tommy,

I am sure will try that out. BTW, does it work on DVs?

If Direct Show can open it, it can.

I tried it on win 2k, it doesn't seem working. I used media player 9 to play out the script "version.avs" including just one line "version" in it. the player won't recognize the format. I reinstalled the .dll file. still, it doesn't work.

And you did turn it on in your regsitry, yes?
